Ewwo all! Thanks for watching my FA page. Never really given this whole journal thing a shot...So here is goes... *breathes in deeply*

For those of you who don't know me all too well, the name is Bando, blue wusky as generic as they come. When I first joined the fandom on a forum website that a stumbled on called F4L, I was asked to give the species and name of my character and Bando just kinda popped in my head! ...No seriously. Little did I know the amount of furs who had the whole " blue, wolf-husky" combo going on. *shrug* But I'll save the "how I joined the fandom" for another time. Currently I am working on a sona that represents me a bit better. I am finding that the personality for Bando is more of an OC kinda thing while another sona I am creating better fits like me...the random dude who is writing all this mess. It may or may not be a Red Panda named Muse "Maple"...Anywho! So I did a thing and went to my first con and to my city's local con!

VancouFUR

First off, I never would be able to go this con if it wasn't for the support of a long and close friend, Cynder. He helped me out in more ways then one, along with dragging me out there. I wasn't sure what exactly sure what to expect from a furry convention this being my first one, but! Soon after getting settled on the Thursday before the convention, I felt at home right away. Not exactly sure how, but it was really nice! I could rant on for hours about the first time con experience, but here are some things in a nut shell! Finally meeting and hanging out with to name a few was awesome! A whole squad and everything!
Went to a few panels, went to an amazing set from DJ_Recca and was forced in...I mean- "handled with love" into dancing with a fursuiter who was kind enough to put up my horrible dancing. (Thank you Cynder for you "dance encouragement"... >.>)
Without going too too much more into the whole thing, my first convention was something I will never forget. From the crazy moments in the con, to the simple and fun times of just meeting up and hanging out with good friends, VancouFUR was an amazing convention and it was sooo depressing to leave...and soo I learn of what the feeling..."Post-con depression" it what I learned it was called..oih vey..If I mentioned you here, thank you for helping making my first convention one to remember. Love you all! <3 If I didn't mentioned you...it's probably because I can't find your FA *lazy panda" but I still wuuuuv you all!

Furnal Equinox

I wasn't sure if I was going to end up going to the convention that was literally a bus ride away from where I live. Thankfully I got to go down! To all of you who going to your first con...PRE-REGESITER!!! TRUST ME! It was dumb on my part to not do so and intern I had the pleasure of waiting in line for a hour and a half. By-passing that, going into this convention I didn't really know anyone as in I never meet any local furs, this again being my first time going to FE. I...well others had to do a double take after passing me in the con after they saw my badge. It went a little something like this...
Other Fur - *Strolling along, my badge catching their eye, stops.."

Me - *o.o?*

Other fur - *Tilts head...gasps..." Oh! Bando!

Me - *Slightly scared but then sees their badge" ...FRIEND! I KNOW OF YOUS! I SEES YOU ONLINE!

It was quite entertaining that way. One meeting of a fur lead to the next and before I knew it...FE SQUAD 2016! The con was helping to cope with the pcd from VF, but alas in the end it came back on the bus ride back home on Saturday night D: . Again, won't go into too too much detail but thank you to Reikou, Kenny, Muru, Selena (idk their FA's yet ;w;) and others I finally got a chance to meet irl that helped made my first FE one that makes DEFINITELY want to come back next year again for.

..Hopefully with a fursuit ;D

This is all for now, sowwie ;w; Untill next time VF and FE, thanks for everything!

P.S excuse my terrible grammar, that means you Cynder.
