That was before I knew much back in 2006 when my idea of the middle ages was the movie Braveheart and the game Medieval Total War. I am a bit harsh on myself I will admit but it's cause I look back and cringe at my past and only like looking into the future more so.
Thats the exact last time I was there in October 2006. Pretty much fine for a ren faire but... living history I can forget it. I didnt know any groups or had any standing anywhere so I didnt learn much between 2005 to 2009. Didn't have much fun in the past at ren faires either due to being socially inapt at the time and so awkward I had no way to talk to strangers or make friends.
This order plus Days of Knights really changed that and now I can do those things just fine now no problem. I hope this second time I go to will be looking up, which I am quite optimistic about meeting up in August. Now that I am bettered a lot more I bet I will have a lot more fun plus meeting more of the order. Probably will be better than the NY one where Elliot and I were the only 2 living history people there in a sea of Rennies. I am just going to bring my knightly outfit and dont have to pack too much like I do for DoK though my mother told me she wont be going to the faire itself so it's just gonna be me and if he comes Elliot, meeting up with Aiden and Nate. If James, his squire and Nathan Quarantillo come to it that would be nice as well though.
