The fall season is upon us, but it already feels like Christmas! San Diego Comic Con announced that returning registration is coming much sooner than usual! For those who attended SDCC this past summer, mark your calendars for the battle in the Expo Logic waiting room on October 28, 2017 at 8 a.m. PDT! Here's a look back at my epic summer adventure!

| San Diego Convention Center plays host to renown SDCC. |
This past July, I was lucky to be one of 130,000 people to find myself at the renowned San Diego Comic Con. Despite suffering the classic con-plague symptoms including exhaustion from long lines, hanger and desert-level dehydration from the lack of eating and drinking because of those long lines, and the painful blisters on my feet from wearing my super cute but extremely uncomfortable platform shoes that perfected my cosplay thanks again to those long lines, I had the most awesome experience!

Be sure to go on a budget! So when you break the bank and spend all your money on all the must-haves and the cute merch in the dealer's room, you can make yourself feel better thinking you tried to go broke methodically.

It's such a special and incredible experience because you can share and express your love for all aspects of pop culture with thousands of others while praying and hoping you have the chance to meet your idol & attend all the high profile events.

The highlight of my experience was definitely the moment I got the winning ticket to attend a meet/greet session with my fav creative designer Simone Legno from Tokidoki and the talented artist Camilla D' Errico.

Be sure to make a list of the top booths you want to hit up because long lines are inevitable and most likely those lines will be capped! I was circling like a hawk for hours to squeeze into Tokidoki's line so I made sure to snag myself a worthwhile haul!
