going to this workshop would seem so strange... I think I would rather just hang out and chat with the people I know than do all this organized stuff keeping us apart Maybe it's just anxiety though. I would terrify my self imagining my self going. But sometimes I would realize how mentally sick my thinking is that's causing the fear Not that I have enough money anyway XD |

If you go... You can hide behind my back if you want to! No need to be scared! If you would talk to your parents about this, would they be able to support you in going? | |

I think you'd love Las Vegas. It is the easiest place to take your first step overseas. The city basically makes its living off of welcoming visitors and making them feel comfortable. Any horror stories you may have heard about "big, bad" American cities do not apply to the tourist part of Las Vegas. | |

I'll pick you up at the airport, help you check into your hotel, pick you up in the mornings to go to the Workshop.... I promise you that it will be the best thing you have ever done for yourself!

Yes, I've been getting encouragement to go from multiple sources. Also I've got a great idea for a pair of Halloween costumes. So now the challenge is to make $500+travel expenses and learn to sew in roughly three months. Last edited by Zach M; 08-05-2010 at 01:03 PM. Reason: grammar fix | |

Oh ****. This is not funny... I have something HUGE against people in costume... and I don't ever wear one... the biggest panic attack I can remember was halloween 6 years ago.... because I had to get a costume I HATE costumes.... How am I supposed to deal with that? This workshop better be extremely good in the first 2 days, so I can deal with the last day!!!!! |

Also, ssandra, if you don't mind my asking, When DON'T you do the fear? If you were to visit a movie set, would you freak out and run screaming from Leonardo DiCaprio in his renaissance tunic and tights? If we were in a hat store and we tried on a jester's hat or a watchman's cap, do you think you would get heart palpitations? Is it only certain kinds of costumes, like scary ones, but not sexy ones? What about sexy scary ones, like a Zombie French Maid or a Playboy Bunny Who Has Been Hit By a Car? What about costumes on their own, with no people in them? What would happen if you were walking down the street and you found a thigh-high pirate's boot laying on the sidewalk? |

Oh man, I didn't need to see all this. I thought I wouldn't be coming back to another CGW for another year at least to give myself time to 'grow', but you all are getting me excited and wanting to come. I'd love to reconnect with all the buddies I met at CGW2 that are coming to this one and meet all new people as well. All the improvements that Steve has been blogging about each CGW has got me intrigued with how the next one will be. I know I've kept rationalizing about not attending this last CGW for the year. It's really a big deal for me to go to Vegas since I'm all the way out east and have to leave 2 kids & bring my husband & 1 yr old with me. Considering we will have just left Vegas 2 weeks prior to this CGW from doing a trade show for our business and then coming back 2 weeks later seems a bit too much traveling to me. But I know my husband wouldn't mind tagging along this trip and would actually probably want me to take it because there's a SEMA show 2 days after the CGW that he's never been to and would LOOOVE to attend. So I'll get my PD/'woo-woo' fix and he'll get his car obsession fix all in the same trip. |

This is not my final vote, but I think you'd be cute as Mexico, like this California costume: EDIT: The image keeps changing. Apparently the website owner doesn't like hotlinking.
