lunch) Chargers An alarm (to ignore) Tissues for when you see your scores Don’t forget candy A shield to push crowds out of the way Seriously bring candy guys, you will be popular Step 6: Finish your convention-ready look with Roman jewel-
ry and your convention name tag.
Friends (optional) -Caroline Klette
Water bottle for when you lose your voice An extra epipen for when people eject your main one While you’re at it, just bring a lock for all your
stuff (Trust no one) Gum for your optional friends Pepper spray for all your enemies Extra body bags, also for your enemies Toothbrush Soap (or just steal it from the hotel) Shampoo - see above And finally - fun!
Step 2: Take the corner of your sheet in one hand. Leave
about 6-8"at the end. Hold in front of the top of one of your
shoulders.
Step 3: Wrap sheet around body and under one arm.
Step 4: Bring up the second corner. After bringing it across
your chest, under your right arm and around your back,
bring the second corner up over your back to the top of your
shoulder.
Step 5: Tie in a double knot, safety pin, or pin with a decora-
