GACC 2010 Chronicles -Day 1-

It's all over... There will not be another GACC in a very long time... Rest In Peace GACC... We will truly miss you. 2010 marks the last of the the 5 year long run of GACC and how can I go without giving my two cents about the event.


Day 1 was rather a disappointment looo.... Before arriving to the event, our group was already excited and busy preparing at our apartment room. Make-up, hair and costume were all done when I got a call from Cutie saying the event was moved from the Main Hall to the changing room for last year's GACC.... My initial reaction was big... Disappointment filled when I announced it to the gang, but it's ok... let's go take a look anyway...


When we arrived at our destination and when I 1st set eyes on the hall... there was only one thought in my mind "Can we go now?"


It was seriously a bad choice of location; it was hot, stuffy, crowded and not a lot of walking space. Shoulders were bumping left and right and foot stepping was a common occurrence inside the hall. Most of the cosplayers decided to stay outside as inside was too hot with their costumes on. It was a wise move on our part as it felt like an oven in there. However, that did not slow us down... everywhere you look, there will be some cosplayers posing for the camera or going crazy. The hall did not dampen their spirits much and it still felt as much of an event as any event.


Okk... another complaint.... The group competition... it was bad bad bad... there was no PROPER listing of prizes and sign ups and we were the ONLY group that signed up giving us an instant default win (Seriously). It didn't even feel nice winning...

The prized they promised us were RM150 and 5 Figurines... DUDE... WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR 5 FIGURINES!!! CHEATERS!!! D8<
I want my toys...

Nuff said... the group competition sucked, but the RM150 was nice...


There wasn't much excitement there on Day 1. The only good thing on that day was the cosplayers and the cosplay spirit. Hall, sound, competition and bands were not up to par.
We left early because of the conditions and did not get to see the ending of Day 1, but I don't think we missed much as we were not in the hall most of the time anyway....


Well that's my two cents about Day 1 =]

Pictures next entry...
