#ComicCon, Media Con, jowever you 'con' call them–we got some #PacificNorthwest (#yyj #yvr #seatac) Hot Summer Updates for those #geeks and #nerds wanting to get out for that #comicbook #convention experience. Con you dig it?

Over the Spring and Summer, the Pacific Northwest is very busy because Comic Cons in all its various iterations are resuming. It started with Fan Expo Vancouver in February 2022 and no Kevin Smith wasn’t at this latest. We are hoping that Jay and Silent Bob cancelled appearance prior to this pandemic mess will come back in a future event though! Even though the province of British Columbia had a…

HEY!

So its been another weekend and another adventure in the McFlyverse. This time I got to do the super long and slightly crampy bus ride to Kelowna and back. It was definitely a journey, but it was definitely worth it.

Nothing of major interest happened on the journey there. I left around midnight on Friday morning and arrived in Kelowna at around 5pm that evening. My plan was to go exploring the Kelowna area that evening, but it was kind of raining and I was pretty worn out from the travel, so I spent pretty much the whole time in my bed watching K-Dramas and eating popcorn.

This was my bed/living space for the two nights I was staying in Kelowna. I decided to try staying at the Samesun Backpackers Lodge. Super cool place. Definitely recommended.

So the next morning I loaded up my stuff and made my way to the convention area. And about half way there I took this picture:

This was where I had to stop because I felt like if I didn’t take a break I was going to die. At least the view of my death would have been pleasant. Right?

Anyway… I got there and set up. Still in my sleep clothes, I will add, so after I set up I went and got dressed. A super lovely and colourful lady gave me a hair elastic because I forgot mine. And my bangs decided to look extra greasy and lifeless. Thanks hair!

But then all the fun began! So here it is, the photos!

Those last two were provided by mangakaluna on Instagram. They are the Shippo in this picture. So if you want to see more, click on her name for a link to her instagram!

At least I managed to get some this time and not have to borrow others :P I was pretty busy though, so I didn’t quite get the amount I wanted…. But some is better than none! Right?!!?

I did also get my picture taken with the Okanagan Batman, who kept reminding me that I have friends (lol) and was really into fist bumps.

After the con I went back to my bunk and died loudly from dragging all my crap back. But was then invited out for board games and food with some newly made con friends. I was taken to this place called Muninn’s Post, and its totally rad! I didn’t take pictures while I was there, but I found this one from Google of the bar/counter area.

So you can kind of get an idea of the theme of the place. And there were board games! And foods! And it was great fun! I had the poutine and it was probably the best one I’ve had in a long time. SO GOOD.

We then headed to Boston Pizza because apparently there was a thing going on there, but we arrived when pretty much everyone had left…. Cuz yknow. Just that awesome. It was still fun. Sat and chatted and then I went back to my bunk. Where I was supposed to sleep because I had to catch my return bus home, but I spent so much time thinking I would oversleep and miss it that I didn’t sleep at all.

So I caught my super early bus running on basically no sleep, and then proceeded to sleep pretty much the entire way to Calgary. I only got one picture on the way back that wasn’t total crap and the rest of the time I just slept that horribly uncomfortable sleep one only gets via bus.

Oh! But there was some drama that kept me awake. We got to one of the BC stops and the bus driver announces again (for probably the billionth time) that the bus is heading to Calgary. And this woman and her very annoying daughter suddenly shriek and cause a fuss because they though the bus was heading to Kamloops or something. So they start freaking out because they basically just spent 4 hours on the wrong bus going in the opposite direction.

And bonus drama: Same BC stop, different story. The bus drivers are switching over, so the old one is handing over the tickets to the new one and then the new one is counting heads. And then suddenly he announces that theres more people on board than there are tickets. Dun dun DUNNNNN. Someones being a sneak. And he asks for whoever might not have given there ticket to the bus driver earlier on to please come forward so we can be on our way. He asks nicely about 3 times. Although by the third time hes gotten a bit grumpy… Understandably. And then he finally announces that now hes going to through and look at everyones receipts, and if he finds the person who didnt come forward that they will have to deal with the consequences. Ominous. Its like when youre mom threatened you with the “…or else” statement, nothing good could come of this. So he starts going through the receipts, and the mystery person is found! It was some young guy, so I kind of feel sorry for him. Anyway, they get him to step off the bus with his stuff, and they basically give him a gigantic blast of shit. Both bus drivers. Apparently the kid got on at an earlier stop and didnt bother to wait for the bus driver. Just hopped on the bus. So all this yelling is going down, the guy is crying, and then he runs away. I dont know what happened to him, but I hope he managed to get things sorted and find a way home or to wherever he was going.

DRAMA ASIDE! Here’s all the random travel pictures I took when I was awake on my journey to Kelowna and the one at the end I took on the way back :P

What a trip :)

And I get to go on another this upcoming weekend to Winnipeg! Maybe I’ll see some of you there…? That would be pretty rad :P

Anyway, I’m going to go lay back down seeing as my body feels like its been hit by a truck…

Ciao!

Kelowna Fan Xpo Prints

So my Sailor Moon prints, my Link print, and my Jake the Dog bookmark have all be sent in to be printed off before this weekend. Talking to my table partner, and I feel I should do some simple coloured original pieces to print with her on some textured paper. But WHAT should I colour, I wonder? I’m not sure how interactive people want to be but if anyone really likes certain pieces I have that look fairly simple, original pieces or fanart(that I dont have to do in big sets with backgrounds) feel free to send me an ask

EDIT: to specify, cause I might have written this in a confusing manner.. ...im talking about sketches I ALREADY did that people want me to colour. I'm not sure I can sketch new stuff to use except my pokemon sticker right now
