I could only go on Sunday, so mine will be pretty short!

Sunday!
Wake up after a very late night of cosplay tweaking
Panic! And do some last minute hot glue gunning :oops:
Stop at Dunkin Donuts. Dad needs coffee, I'm to nervous to eat. :shock:
Arrive at con! and check in!
Realize I am actually at AB! :D
Wander around! Taking pictures, and having our picture taken.
Dealer's Room opens I HAVE NEVER SEEN MORE ANIME STUFF IN MY LIFE :o
Check out artists alley
Cosplay Chess! IT WAS SO AWESOME :D
Mini FMA meetup!
Panels!
Closing Ceremonies... lots of fun, but sad, too. IT'S ALREADY OVER?!
Drive home, and spend hours looking at photos and planning for next year! ;)

See you all at AB 2014, and my Dad has agreed to go as Alphonse again next year when I go as Edward, already. Even though he has never watched anime before he had a great time.
2013 was my first Anime Boston ever!! And it was awesome!

I'm going to try this! (Mine might be lengthy...)

Tuesday:
Pack my cosplays into my suitcase.
Pack the plastic-containers with my cosplay accessories & homemade snacks; trail-mix & meatbun-shaped brownies coated in white-chocolate, in my suitcase.
Double check that everything is in my suitcase.
Triple check...
Put the luggage-lock on the suit-case, so I'm not constantly checking it.

Wednesday:
Put the suitcase in the trunk of my mom's car. (There is a reason why)

Thursday:
Wake up!
Eat breakfast!
Get dressed & put my contacts in!
Pack the last minute stuff into my lap-top backpack.
Catch the public-bus to my mom's work.
Wait until my mom goes on her lunch-break.
Get driven to the Bus-Station to catch the bus to Boston. (Why my suitcase was in my mom's car-trunk...)
Arrive in Boston.
Ride the T to the hotel & guide fellow con-goers there. (They were staying in the same-hotel)
Check into the Hotel.
Drop my stuff into my hotel-room.
Try to track down the people staying in my room.
Find 2 of the 3 people. (It took an hour & a half...)
Go to Shaws to pick up food & drinks. (Ran into the third-person on the way to the store. Her friend let her in)
Run into the people I made plans to meet up with on the way back to my hotel-room.
Drop off my purchases & went to Chinatown with the group.
Returned to my hotel-room & eventually went to sleep.

Even more wandering around, still taking pictures.
Back to my hotel-room to sleep!

Head for the T Station.
Wait about 30-mintues to an hour, before I got onto the train. (Left Con before 4pm, arrived @ the Bus-Station after 5pm)
