loved this scene! :D
Have a great time! :D
Just a little over three months (13 weeks!) to go until the 2017 Convention Tour kicks off in Vancouver! Today, the convention tip is all about staying healthy before and during the convention.
Hundreds of Oncers are going to spend three days sitting closely together or standing in line closely together … in March … in Canada … so I think everyone is very interested in staying as healthy as possible! (Even if your convention date is in the summer these are still good tips to keep in mind.)
Being healthy starts with taking good care of yourself. The 5-2-1 Convention Rule is always important to follow (Get enough sleep, make sure you eat and please, shower!) but let’s talk a little about other ways to stay healthy before and during the convention.
Boost Your Immunity
We all want to look good in our photo ops, right? Adopting a low to moderate exercise routine and eating a balanced diet not only helps you look your best but it can also help your immune system (in case anyone needed extra motivation to hit the gym)
Take some vitamins that support your immune system! Many people swear by Airborne and take it before an important event to give their body some help in fighting illness. If anyone else has a tried-and-true vitamin regimen then let us know!
Be a Smart Traveler
There will be a lot of fans that are flying in or using some other kind of public transportation to get to the conventions and that means lots of germs will be travelling, too. If you are travelling make sure you take precautions.
It’s a good idea to pack some cold remedies to bring with you, especially if you’re travelling outside of your home country. The product that works best for you might not be available in another country or you won’t want to go out and get it so it’s best to have something on hand in the event you catch something on the first day.
Bring along hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes and USE THEM! Wipe down your seat, seat belt, door handles … pretty much anything you might touch. Wash your hands whenever you can and avoid touching people as much as possible.
Do Your Research
Mental health is important, too! If you get any kind of anxiety from being in unfamiliar surroundings then make sure you plan ahead so you know what to expect! Talk to people who have been to cons before and ask them questions. Get the schedule when it comes out and make sure you know when you will have to be where and when you can have some down time.
Give yourself enough time before the convention starts to know where everything is and how long it will take to get there. Look into what food options are on site or nearby. Decide in advance how much money you have to spend and stick to it!
Let the Fun Begin!
Once you get to the convention you will be excited. You’re not only going to see the stars that you love but you’re also going to see friends that you’ve spent months or years talking to online. Have fun but don’t sacrifice your own personal health.
Stay hydrated! Most conventions have water and disposable cups in the main room but it’s a good idea to keep a bottle of water with you during the day. (Keep in mind that excessive alcohol consumption can take a toll on your immune system so think before you have that second… fourth … or ninth drink)
Remember the hand sanitizer and wipes that you brought on the plane? Keep using those at the convention and share with the people around you that didn’t read this guide. Wash your hands as often as you can because nothing beats soap and warm water!
A special note for those attending the Vancouver convention: if you will be there before or after the convention and are hoping to catch some outdoor filming just make sure that you pack WARM clothes and plenty of layers!
If anyone has any other suggestions then let us know and we will add them to this post!

SIGNAL BOOST PLEASE
Will we finally see a new chapter for Eyes Open? I sure hope so! Am super intrigued to find out what happens after seeing all of the pic-snaps and AUs posted.
Nicole getting more sneak peeks at Eyes Open 😂
Please, please pray for the Caribbean.
Hurricane Irma is currently at category 5 with winds at 185 mph and worsening every three hours or so. It’s destined to hit the islands and absolutely cover Puerto Rico, so one can only imagine the damage it’ll cause to the Islands. Not one bit of Puerto Rico will manage to avoid the rains and winds of this massive, record breaking phenomenon.
It is, quite literally, the biggest hurricane these islands have faced. The largest before was in 1928 and, while also being a category 5 hurricane, had winds literally 20-25 miles slower than this one. Irma seems to only be getting stronger and is sure to bring catastrophic events worse than even Harvey.
So, please, keep us in your thoughts and prayers. ❤️
Reblog if you ship those two; I wanna see how large and supportive of a group we are before the season begins!
what do you need help with? I would be happy to proof read what you have so far?
