You've watched the videos, played the games, and have known how it all plays out...
But what if you were part of it?
What if you were given the chance to be with your favourite Hetalia characters...but at a cost of being with them in...HetaOni?
...
To the fandom that I will always believe to be "the one"
To the fandom that made me smile, laugh, cry, and hyperventilate (all at the same time, sometimes xD)
To the fandom that helped me get up whenever I would feel down and all alone
To the fandom that got me to meet so many wonderful friends, including my best friend
To the fandom that's always been there for me, no matter how close I was at the point of drifting away or actually leaving
To the fandom that gave me so much feels and angst and omgIjustcant moments
To the fandom that helped me meet my one true love, Matthew Williams
To the fandom that helped me realize my one true pairing, USUK
To the fandom that inspired me to write my HetaOni (Hetalia x Reader x 2P!Hetalia) fanfic, that introduced me to so many lovely readers
To the fandom that made me believe that the world really is beautiful, and if you look close enough, twinkling
To the fandom that I know I will always love and cherish
To the fandom I fell for, and stayed in because I chose to
Because I love it so much it hurts
To the fandom that means the whole world to me (quite literally)
Thank you so much.
Hetalia Day 2016 Philippines was such a magical, memorable day for me. It was my first Hetalia Day (and hopefully, not the last :">), and it really filled me with excitement knowing that I'll be an event that solely celebrated Hetalia itself. A lot of things almost prevented me from attending the event, like money matters, and class schedules, but I really fought against the odds just to attend it because Hetalia means so much to me, and if I didn't attend an event that's practically a 15 minute jeepney ride from home, I feel like I would regret it forever. So when I finally managed to pay for it, and get that confirmation e-mail about getting a slot for HetaDay, I almost cried.

On the actual date, I came to the event alone. My friends weren't able to go with me because of their busy schedules, and as much as I wanted to go with my best friend (hi Samantha :'>), she had to move to Australia with her family. It was kinda scary, you know. Going to an event alone without knowing anyone, being a smol socially-awkward potato. It was so awkward just standing there at the pickup point, casually scrolling through my phone. I didn't really know what to do.
