I promise to do my best (but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling a bit antsy. ^^; )
I tried to find people back in 2014 but the bar was so overcrowded and everyone had their own cliques already. Not going to let that stop me this year though.

Aw, what happened to the Pizza party?
Sadly, my collection's in storage due to the renovations but there's always buying and discussing future trades. (I think I have three dark energon, japanese megatron figures that I need to sell/trade off. XD;;; It is such a pretty figure.)
Though I plan to spend most of my money in the charity auction. I did that back in 2013(?) I believe? Got kudos from Gregg Berger and
everything. ^w^ Not sure I can spend as much as I did that year but I plan on spending quite a bit. I may even donate the toys to the Toys-for-Tots foundation (because omgosh my collection takes up four bins and a bedroom trunk as it is.) It all depends what's available.
