So i was So i was going to wait until later, but decided to write something now….😁 knowing full well that after food later I will turn into a couch potatoe and watch crap TV.
I have never dreamt of being famous, I have always been conscious that I lack the looks, the talent (singing, acting, dancing etc) and probably the connections for it. But I have always been drawned to famous people not because of what they do, or what they earn but rather due to curiosity.
How can they manage with thousands of people loving them? Screaming for them etc? I mean I barely survive my two kids screaming “MUM” or boyfriend asking “have you seen my card?” I definitely need therapy if it happens more than once a day..and by therapy I mean alcohol 😁😋
So how do they do it?
I know … most people dont wonder about these things, but this weekend while attending a con, I saw how the fans got with guests, there was tears, screams and awhole lot more but you know what?
The guests always had a smile and hug to give, no matter how many hours how many sweaty screaming people they interacted with. This is true talent.
By the way I was totally one of the sweaty screaming crazy fans. I did not cry, but as soon as Iain de Caestecker looked at me … I basically melted on the inside and I’m pretty sure I must have drooled a little. Hey but he kept his cool how? Please this is seriously important information as I need to learn how to be cool in situations like these.
I have also during the weekend discovered what a girl crush was.. I had never understood it until Brianna Venskus was announced on stage, now that’s what I call an amazing character, so giving so funny so put together, my money was well spent for sure on this con.
The weekend came and went, and memories were made, but amazingly one of the best things was the friendships made with other attendees. Jesus did I meet a lot of people, some I dont even remember their names, but will certainly remember their faces. Others made a bigger impact on me and are now in constant contact with me. We don’t necessarily need to share love for the same shows or comics, we simply need to share love for life itself.
Nowadays, it seems that people lack the understanding of others, it seems it is more important to make yourself look bigger rather than helping others. I had lost faith in humanity a long time ago, but this con has given me hope for a better inclusive society, for this I am forever grateful.
Much love
