User blog:AstroPhantom/My Gravity Falls Comic-Con Experience

Hey all! Just thought I shared my Gravity Falls experiences from San Diego Comic-Con quickly!

So, Saturday was the first day of signings Alex was doing for the Journal. Apparently, I missed the deadline for getting a wristband for the signing, but I did purchase my own Journal 3! It was such a fun moment, and they even gave me a little card/sticker with Alex's autograph on it! (At first I thought it was just a promotional thing, but then I went back and asked if it was real, and it was!) So I put that sticker in the back of the book, on the page with the production info and the "Item #618."

I then stuck around to see Alex arrive for the signing, even if I wasn't in line. But it was so cool to see him in person, and I'm pretty sure he and I had a split-second moment of eye-contact. As Dipper would say, "I'll take what I can get!"

I also got some pics of myself with the Journal. I dressed up in a modified Wendy cosplay that day (by "modified" I mostly mean that my hat had a Warriors logo on it...XD). I also saw a bunch of Dipper cosplays, and a handful of Mabel, Stan, and Bill cosplays.

Later that night, back in my hotel room, I played the music during Dipper's discovery of the journal from the episode while I started to read it myself. Highly recommend doing that - it adds so much! :D

'Twas a fun Comic-Con, and I'm glad I had my Gravity Falls moments for it!
