I know that feeling. So very well. I'm 25 myself, too. I was one of the younger ones there when I went to my first con at age fifteen. Have I gotten older or have cons aged down? I still enjoy them, so I don't think I'm going to give them up.

And it's really fun to go to the dealers' room with some real money now that I'm older and have a real income.

I think the con audience has aged down a little, as far as I can tell; a lot of that probably has to do with the fact that manga and anime are much easier to get at now than they were when I was getting into it.

One of the biggest bummers for me, though, is simply not being able to find fans who've heard of some of the older series I like (especially Slayers).

But I agree with you on the dealer's room. It's so great not having to borrow from parents or friends to buy stuff. :)
