Hobcon'09 - First Hobby Convention event in Cebu

HOBBY CONVENTION 2009

As what they say, it's the First Hobby convention held here in Cebu. Cosplays, Toy collections and online game events *sponsored by Levelupgames.ph*.

I was informed by this event just last May 2009 and was really excited and then i invited my otaku friends to get together in that event.

Due to my excitement, eventually some of my friends cannot attend, Shiela stuck in Samar/Leyte, Nicel got this wedding event, if they won't come then Al will not also come. I was like... WHHAATTT?! got a bit sad, okay i'll go on SOLO flight.
Good thing aL decided she'll come with me, *Word of Honor*. Okay we're about a little late, the event will start at 2:00 PM as what the schedule in Canevents.com says. We're still far away from Parkmall *gah, hate this jeepney's they're sooo freaking me out and it's a little bit traffic!*

Finally, we're in SM already but we still need to ride a taxi going Parkmall *No jeepneys around in Parkmall*, suddenly Nicel call me out in the phone and she wanted to join us, so like we wait for a while *though it's 3:00PM already and we are not sure we will still be able to watch the event*.

Hooray! nicel's here, *timecheck 3:30PM* Get into the Taxi and boom goin' Parkmall.
It's actually my first time to visit Parkmall.

We Ran as fast as we can hoping we could still catch up, but, GOOD THING!, *Thanks FILIPINO TIME* The event was just started 8timecheck 3:30*. I smooched for the crowd, insert, insert and Hell yeah! i get the front row near the stage. Hooray for me!!!

I took a lot of pictures, was really satisfied of my front row area we're a can shoot and take photo's of those cute cosplayers.

On the other side of the event is the Online game fest. Where "mumu" plays together for a prize. Sponsored by Levelupgames.ph. *was trying to join the Crazykart event :P*

That was a good event. There's a lot of "first times" happening.
1. First time be in parkmall
2. First time to ride in a cool taxi! *imagine that taxi has a TV on it, COOL!*
3. First time to be in a front row desk in a Cosplay event.

They say, there's this another Hobcon event this coming November. Hoping i could join the cosplay competition.

Akihabara: Land of Otakus

Akihabara- "rowdy, vulgar, fanatic, but it's a thrilling place that definitely wont appear elsewhere. It's the holy land for those of us who are called otaku by others. We wont be bothered by anyone, it's the land that allows us to be addicted to our own interests, to forget our gloomy lives the oasis in the desert for incompetent people like us. No, perhaps this world is actually our real life"

-akihabara@deep

Akihabara is an area in Tokyo Japan. It is a major shopping area for electronic, computer, anime, and otaku goods, including new and used items. But for us Otaku's it's our Heaven on Earth!

What's Otaku by the way?
a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly anime, manga, and video games. The term otaku refers to a fan of any particular theme, topic, or hobby. Common uses are anime otaku (a fan of anime), cosplay otaku and manga otaku (a fan of Japanese comic books), pasokon otaku (personal computer geeks), gēmu otaku (playing video games), and wota (pronounced 'ota', previously referred to as "idol otaku") that are extreme fans of idols, heavily promoted singing girls.

So the question is.. Are you one of us?
