Wow what a weekend! It’s still so surreal meeting Tom, seeing so many amazing actors in person and meeting so many new friends! I had an absolute blast!
My story is very straightforward, I’m very shy so its hard for me to interact sometimes. My friend had vip (I had all basic passes) and our photo op was Saturday. Security was so tight that day they wouldn’t let us hug or interact in the photos so we didn’t get to be creative like the photo ops on Sunday, which was kinda a shame. Tom in person is so PETITE. He was so adorable and so polite. We bumped into Tom later that day while walking on the top floor. I was trying to get past Stan Lee’s booth when a security guard stopped me and wouldn’t tell me why I couldn’t continue forward. I knew someone had to be coming. Sure enough the doors to my right opened and Tom was ushered through the crowd of screaming girls. I was only a couple feet away from him.
While waiting for my friends signing that day I decided to give him the only copy of my fanart since my signing wasn’t until Sunday and it didn’t dawn on me we could gift things. So when it was my turn in line he asked me if I’d like the artwork signed and I said it was a gift. He looked at it for a second (keep in mind we were being pushed through line quickly so my time with him was only a couple seconds) and then he looked me in the eyes and said “wow it’s lovely, I appreciate it so much,” and then I was on my way. That was probably the quickest signing I’ve ever been to. I’ve been spoiled in the past with meeting celebs at other smaller cons, so it did feel rushed but I was over the moon regardless and his response to my artwork made me ecstatic!
Sunday my photo op went a lot faster so I hardly got a word in. This time I got my artwork signed and he remember me. I did ask how he was doing because he seemed tired. I know this was his first full con experience so I think the day was taking its toll. My favorite part of the day was the panel. I could sit and listen to Tom all day, he’s so witty and playful! Before Tom came onto the stage Dom Holland came out onto the floor and took a couple photos with fans. During the interview Tom talked about Spiderman, his experience on the set of Chaos Walking (!!!!), and his first and last day with the cast of Spiderman. He at one point got up during the interview and said he needed water and ran off stage and brought Jacob and Laura water and then told the interviewer they could share if he’d like lol.
I’ll be flying back home tomorrow. I will definitely be making Tom’s future cons if I can, it was such a wonderful experience. I never thought I could like Tom any more than I already do, but goddamn I’m obsessed now!
With the first Monday in May comes The Met Gala. This year’s theme is the second part of 2021’s theme IN AMERICA. The first year was the Lexicon of Fashion, this year’s theme “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” had a mission statement of celebrating the “ storytelling and a historical context (of fashion), starting with the development of American fashion in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the emergence of an identifiable American style and the rise of the name designer.” The dress code was "gilded glamour and white tie.”
Of course nearly everyone just did whatever the hell they wanted to do.
