So I went to Bookcon with PotterHead_Initiate and her brother Johnny.
Let me just say that it was the best day of my life.
Okay, lemme recap EVERYTHING:
**
Me: *wakes up* OMG I'M GOING TO BOOKCON!
wait a minute....
I need to make something for John Green!
*texts Rebecca about making a scrapbook*
***
*spends blood and sweat on scrapbook*
Me: OMG IM. DONE. IM ACTUALLY DONE. *HOLDS BOOK UP LIKE SIMBA*

*at Bookcon*
Rebecca: WE'RE HERE!
*we dash to where we are supposed to meet John Green*
Dad: Guys look *points to board*
PAPER TOWNS FILM PANEL: CLOSED
Rebecca: *le eye twitch* that's okay
Dad: You can always just mail it to him.
Rebecca: I KNOW! LETS GO TO MARIE LU!

Bookcon worker: Sorry, this is closed.
Rebecca: *eye twitch* HOW ABOUT THIS AUTHOR *FORGOT THE NAME*
WORKER: CLOSED
***
*Rebecca, Johnny and I sit on the floor*
Rebecca: I think I'm gonna cry.
*All hopes of meeting famous authors are crushed*
*******
Okay I'm gonna cut in with a note:
So apparently to attend the John Green panel we needed a special band, and we didnt know.
So when the nerdfighters in the JG line were leaving for another panel, Rebecca, Johnny, and I RAN FROM THE SECOND FLOOR TO THE FIRST FLOOR.
AND ALMOST 10 SECONDS LATER THE NERDFIGHTERS FILLED UP THE LINE
ANYWAY IMMA JUST FAST-FORWARD TO THE GOOD PART OF BOOKCON
****
Me: *finds a center in Bookcon* Lets go here!
*I enter to find an easel and poster and sharpies*
Bookcon lady: You can color the poster for free!
*Becky, John and I color the poster for a bit*
***
Rebecca: OMG THEY HAVE A SELECTION PHOTO OP
You know those cardboard people with the heads cut off so you can place your head in? Yeah that.
Rebecca: *places head where America Singers head would be*
Bookcon worker: *gives her tiara*
I did the same thing too
***
Bookcon lady: Vote for a exclusive scene you want to see in Allegiant! You get a free sticker !
*Rebecca and I vote on a Peter/Tris scene* *Johnny picked an Evelyn scene*
*****
Bookcon lady: Fill out this form to recieve a FREE POSTER
*Rebecca,Johnny, and I get an amazing book poster*
*Rebecca and I get a Kristina Webb poster*
The poster was the drawing she did with the quote 'Why cant I just read all day every day?'
****
*finds photo booth*
*Rebecca, Johnny, and I put on accessories that are provided and we take photos*
*****
Me: WHO NEEDS AUTHORS WHEN WE GOT THIS?!
At Bookcon they basically had this Wheel of Books thing. When you spun the wheel, whatever book the wheel landed on YOU GOT A FREE COPY OF IT
I got the book Love and Profanity.
****
Rebecca and Johnny also bought books.
Important for you to know ^
But even though I didn't meet any authors, I STILL HAD FUN
