Lessons I learned at Animé Los Angeles 3

A cell phone's voice recorder can be a good source for getting sound bites, but only if you can upload the file to your computer.

A USB cable is only good for transferring pictures from your digital camera to your computer, but only if you know where you left it.

When the Guest of Honor recommends taking art (or animation) classes to improve your skills, chances are she is speaking from experience and not because she's mean.

If you should be the last person in line for an autograph, don't walk away before getting your items signed.

Don't forget them at the table either.

There are very few problems that can't be solved with the words "Mana Mana".

Playing Anime Music Videos won't hurt either.

Should the last two fail um... Look! Shiny!

If you don't want your badge to ruin your leather jacket, remember lanyards are your friends.

Sleep at least six hours a day...

Eat at least twice a day...

Don't get the last two confused.

Body Odor is not your friend.

If you disagree with that last statement, then chances are it is your only friend.

Should you find yourself having to walk for three hours just two days before the con, remember Dr. Scholl's is your friend...

All night dancing is not.

A con suite is a nice place to get a quick snack...

But if you happen to see a more snacks in the next room, be sure that the door doesn't say "Staff Only".
