GAH, I just discovered that Jared, Jensen, and Micsha Collins are going to be at a Supernatural convention in Sydney on April 18th-19th. Less than a week after deciding to go to Melbourne first and booking my flight to there. Waaaah. :( I suppose it'd be silly to spend money to change my flight to just go to Sydney and start there, or to go to Melbourne then fly back up to Sydney for the weekend. Especially since the con is $150 per day. o.o And all the photo-ops are sold out. And autographs are $40 each for the main boys. I'm trying to tell myself it'd be silly and frivolous and expensive, but but... :( They'd be so CLOSE! And I was so close to starting off in Sydney in which case I would have been there! Sigh. Oh well... On the plus side, I've been digging around online and have found some Australian SF groups, OzScape 3 in Sydney in early June (mainly a Farscape con, it seems, and featuring Lani Tupu, Wayne Pygram, and Kent McCord this year... with more guests probably to be announced. Also a bunch of classic BSG guests because they're evidently doing a special classic BSG event this year, too, but I don't really care about that), soem Australian Browncoats groups (and I realized I could go to Can't Stop the Serenity in Australia this year! Last year they happened in several cities, so hopefully one will coincide with wherever I am... and realistically speaking, I'm probably going to end up planning my travels at least partially on when/where the country's SF events are. XD XD).

Anyway, there's a SF group that meets weekly in Melbourne, so I'll check that out - if anything, it'd be a good way to meet some people (and locals, not just other travellers...). Mom wants me to join fitness classes to meet people - instead I joing SF clubs. XD XD Though okay, I should do the fitness classes too...

Heh, you know... it just occurred to me that it's kinda absurd how I've been living in the same city as Jared & Jensen for the last several years, yet it takes me going halfway around the world to get the opportunity to meet them... and now I won't even be able to. -____- Oh wells. *sigh*
