*edit* Filled up already w00t! *edit*
I didn't think I was going to be able to afford all the ($600-700) expenses of getting from the sticks of Washington state to DC for CPAC, but I have a couple more bucks than I expected to, and now that I hear that CFL isn't doing as well as they'd like in getting people there.. and that RP himself seems especially unenthusiastic about the amount of support for RP2012 (perhaps becuase of CFL CPAC sales), I feel like I have to at least try.
So, I figure I need another $300, which would cover less than half my expenses, even splitting rooms 4 ways and cutting corners everywhere, but would be enough to make me confident that I can make this happen. I actually have the days off from school that I need already, so I feel like I have to at least throw this out there, cause I'd feel guilty if I didn't.
I only have about 8 days to raise funds, cause things would get even more expensive if I waited till the last second, so I kind of don't expect this $300 chip in filled up by it's ending date of Feb 2nd. If I can't get it filled up, I'll contribute what I have to other chip-ins or to another place that is getting RP people to CPAC. But at least I'll know I didn't give up without trying, even though I had the days off from school.

For those that don't know me very well, and want to know who the hell I am, you might have seen this video I posted to my youtube subscribers back in 2007.

I made it as sort of a personal video to my subscribers, since I had a couple thousand due to my comedy videos. I would have made the video differently if I had known it would have gotten so many views, but oh well. The RP videos I already have planned for '12 will be massively better, and will be made for a wide audience. That is, if he runs D-:
