We are heading to Super Geek Film Festival!

Florida Supercon is next week and we honestly can't contain our excitement!!!

Geeks in cosplay fangirling over who is at the convention, freaking out over shows that have recently gone on break and just having the time of our life being around our own kind. It's hard to believe but coming across another fanboy/girl is kind of hard if you don't already have a small group of friends that you already hangout with. So it's easy to say that going to cons is a pretty big deal for fangirls like us. 

To add to the excitement Florida Supercon is hosting Super Geek Film Festival and the line up is pretty amazing. We can't wait to watch a few of these films and if you'll be at one of the screenings let us know so we can try to meet up! :)
