Sorry everybody looks like Comic Con is officially over, well at least the exhibit hall is over. Which means I get to clue you into a fact that when you read this and if you were at the con...you will trip balls. Remember the celebrity I couldn't tell you about? Lets see if I can remind you of what went on during the Alice and Wonderland panel on Thursday, any remember that Johnny Depp made a surprise guest appearance? Turns out he really was walking around Comic Con dressed as Jack Sparrow, a fact Tim Burton clued us all in but we thought, oh well its just today. Apparently it must not have, if i have to guess he was there all four days. Want to know how i have figured this out? Yesterday which was Saturday while i was off on a journey searching for playboy magazines and adults my friend Kayla tripped over Cap'n Jack Sparrow a.k.a Johnny Depp! The story goes as follows...she heard a young girl talking to him saying, "Can I have some run?" in an excited little girls voice, to which the Cap'n replied "Not for another two years." wagging his finger in concordance. (The mother didn't like that by the way) So she took a picture with the alcohol crazed Cap'n (he was walking in his awesome drunk way) and then towards the end he tapped her shoulder saying "Shh its a secret!" So if he asks everybody...I wasn't the one who told you!
I love how he loves his character enough to dress up as him and go to the con, don't you? Makes me love him even more. Please come next year Mr. Depp? And if he reads this...I want to meet you, your my biggest influence for acting! Not that I believe he will read this, but oh well.
UPDATE: in case your wondering she knew it was him because he wore no badge and was being followed by bodyguards and a cameraman. So yeah people it was him..There on Saturday!
Another UPDATE: for those of you who need further proof to the fact that Depp actually was there, Tim Burton mentioned the possibility of him being dressed as Jack Sparrow in an interview with MTV which can be found here he says, ""He's never been [to Comic-Con] ... and i don't know, he could've dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow and just been one of many," laughed the director."--from mtv. Also a picture was taken and will be posted once my friend uploads it.
Love Kat!

Comic Con the day after
The much anticipated geek and nerd convention is almost to a close! Yet its not just for the comic book fans who wish to buy the latest Through the looking glass novel or a grim tales comic or even old comic books from the earliest years. Its also a convention for the movie buffs who want to catch a glimpse of a scene from twilight or Iron Man 2. I went to Comic Con yesterday the 25th. A saturday where at night when most of the center is asleep we party away at the Masquerade. It was a pretty amazing day, I walked through the Exhibit Hall which sadly this year wasn't the best, plus i missed a chance at getting a signing from the Superman/batman/public enemies people (not sure who they are) at the WB booth. And i never got the smallville bag i most wanted. The biggest high light was the Masquerade party, 43 contestants had they're own skit and dazzled the crowd with costumes from some of our favorite icons, among the list were the Joker several times, batman, poison ivy, Hulk, anime costumes, an amazing long skit from the Princess Bride and even a character from the Phantom of the Opera.
The night even had some fun laughs when a group of costumed people from around the world danced to "Its a small world" to which the crowd burst into laughter, enhancing when they danced to a Michael Jackson tribute of Thriller. I took a few photos (poor quality i must warn you) that I will put up later. I also have a few surprises that sadly i cannot share today since Comic Con has one more day, but I'll give you a hint...one of my friends saw a famous celebrity that we all know and love. But he asked her to keep it a secret so in honor of that I'll give you the details tomorrow.
The day also had some fun adventures when me and two of my friends went to Subway, a man behind us got jacked and was seen running toward the invisible thief yelling. Wonder who stole from him? And at a Comic Con convention were thousands of people had weapons and were dressed up as Superman and Batman? Yet it would have been even funnier if a costumed villain or superhero stole from the guy. We'll never know.
All in all a pretty fun day, I have a bunch of free stuff that i get to read and put up later, including a signed Marvel superhero poster, a few pins (one that has DC on it) and comics given to me from one of my friends. Only strange thing that happened was when I walked outside with a friend, a guy looks at me and asked if i was getting off of work...basically i got hit on. To which i replied "No" and then kind of ran away. :/
Thanks for reading!

Dick Magnet
There's one thing half the population of woman want and the other who want it rid of, and thats being a "dick magnet." Since my early years up till Sophomore year I was always the flat chested geeky girl who wasn't that pretty, and who guys were never attracted to. It hurt, even now I've never had a boyfriend and I'm 17, and my first kiss was just shy of a year ago. I had always wanted to be the beautiful girl who attracted boys like honey to a bee. Careful what you wish for!
In the past few months i seem to have gotten my wish, i've had many guys interested in me and have aptly flirted with most. But after awhile and the list of how many guys you can catch gets long you start wishing it would just stop. For me the attention is nice...but now I'm starting to wonder how to deal with my flirtatious behavior. Should i still keep the date when the guy i wouldn't make my boyfriend tells me he's in love with me? Seems to be my problem now, I recently started talking with a guy who over the past three weeks has decided he is in love with me, wanting to give me roses, and offering to pick me up from San Diego's Comic con convention...are just a few of the things i have to deal with. Its sweet, but when he tells me he wont let me live town i go a bit speechless. What's even worse? I just met an amazing guy who i can see myself dating, yet i need to get rid of the love sick pup and tell him I'm done.
People deal with this all the time I'm sure, so how do girls do it? Be a bitch and break it off quickly without emotion? Guys have never been the smartest at hints, even if you say you just had lustful feelings. Any advice? I'll let you know how it comes out.
