Obligatory doll post
BAH. All this talk of dollfies! I swear, half the people on my friends list (and by half I mean a fifth or less) seem to be obsessed with those $300 pocket-drainers. It seems to be the latest fad.
... the worst part is, I like them too ^^; I mean, come on, they're the closest you're going to get to those beautiful anime bishounen. And ever since someone posted a picture of a doll they'd done up as hide I've been somewhat enticed.
I did some research quite a while bit, and whilst this lovely speciman is absolutley droolworthy, his somewhat more economical relative is also quite appealing. What do you think,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sefieslj?
Bah. I'd be tempted to go for one if there was no such thing as AI-Con. Seriously, six months ago I thought I'd have a nice long break after Wai-Con (when I still thought I was going >.>) where I could get my monies together and... I dunno. Not have to scrimp and save every dollar I get to the point where when friends ask if they can borrow two dollars for a drink or something I have to refuse. I'm moving out AGAIN soon, and the rent's gonna be cheaper... you'd think that would mean more spending money. No. No it doesn't. Centrelink will even it out >.<
Don't get me wrong. AI-Con is for le win, but after having to squeeze every penny I got ever since I moved out, it gets insanely... insane. Sometimes I have little splurges on myself like a spanky new manga or dinner out, but it really does suck being unemployed.
But yes. The entire point of this post? My want for a dollfie has been rekindled, but the conwhore in me is far too busy channeling every spare dollar towards the never-ending cycle of Australian anime conventions. ME FAIL TT_______TT

If you think Australia has a "never ending cycle of anime conventions", then just go spend a month in the US. They have more conventions over there in 2 weeks then we have all year.

Oh lord, the great and gigantic US Cons. I think you should volunteer for Yaoi-Con next time you're over there ^_~
