Title: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 17, 2008, 11:13:24 pm
Does anyone want to meet at Wadington square for either cosplay/discussion/hangout-ness-ness?

A place serviceable only by bus? Nah. How about Lloyd's?

I am up for any event but there are alot of other meet/events ups going on soon.

Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 18, 2008, 12:01:55 am
Some people might be going to multiple events. An actual meeting and discussion on the events in person would be slightly faster than typing on here. Washington Square or Loyd Center should work for me. I mean, I know we're not a true "clan" of cosplayers, but we are the ones who organize and go to most of these events.

dspends on what day/time. I live close enough.

Post by: ladyknightsgrace on December 18, 2008, 07:29:13 pm
same as above, but I actually prefer Washington Square. It's closer for me.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: soundninja12 on December 18, 2008, 07:33:38 pm
I could probably make it, depending on when
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 07:34:32 pm
Yeah I was talking about Washington Square as well
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: EveofAbyss on December 18, 2008, 08:02:54 pm
I like Washington Square the most as well, especially around Christmas. Nice atmosphere. I'd be fine for a meet-up, since I don't plan on attending any others and I just plain don't know about any others going on.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 08:13:48 pm
Well I'll be sure to let you know about the meet-ups ;)

when is this one going to be?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hazuza on December 18, 2008, 08:51:16 pm
Washington Square is real easy for me to get to, but the shops are boringgg :P

Still'd be fun to go to in cosplay though o3o
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 08:53:01 pm
shopping isn't boring! Are you crazy woman? I love to shop XD
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 18, 2008, 08:59:42 pm
Well, the hello kitty store just opened, which is really nice even though its small. and wouldn't it be AMAZING to walk into Hollister in cosplay  ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 18, 2008, 09:03:12 pm
@Hidamari
Yush please to both. 0_0 but still I need to know when we'd want to do this is. if it's soon I'll have to say no(no matter how badly I want to go to the new sanrio store, and freak out Hollister people)
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 09:04:40 pm
That would be really funny XD

The hello kitty store is very very small >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 18, 2008, 09:06:56 pm
@nikki
it is? how small? does it at least have awesome hello kitty stuff?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 09:08:52 pm
have you been to Washington square?

Its pretty small and very crowded....lots of shelves and what not.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 18, 2008, 09:10:07 pm
lets try to find a date that will work out with everyone who wants to go. i free pretty much anytime, and now that winter break is starting its all good

and its about twice (if not smaller) of the average bedroom.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hazuza on December 18, 2008, 09:10:46 pm
I meant it was boring as in.... I dunno, it's small and doesn't have that many cool places or someth xD
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 18, 2008, 09:12:14 pm
I have been there, but not to the sanrio store.

true. haven't been there for a long long time.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 09:13:08 pm
it's upstairs in the food court next to where the sam goodie used to be.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 18, 2008, 09:15:36 pm
@Hazuza THATS WHY WE NEED TO SPICE IT UP WITH COSPLAY.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Seraph on December 18, 2008, 11:09:42 pm
I shall go to this.

I dun have cosplay though
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 18, 2008, 11:14:46 pm
I wanna go.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: ambergen87 on December 18, 2008, 11:18:26 pm
I work at Washington Square. I would love to come in cosplay. I might only wear my yukata though.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 18, 2008, 11:18:38 pm
you should go. We can go Saturday but it might be a little soon >_> I just know I have Saturday off XD

As in this Saturday right? What time would be good? Like Noon or 2?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: soundninja12 on December 19, 2008, 08:49:46 am
I think I could pull a cosplay together pretty fast, but not that fast.
and going in to hollister in cosplay would be so fun!
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 19, 2008, 09:11:24 am
Saturday is...much too soon. I'll wait till the next meet up. >_<
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: soundninja12 on December 19, 2008, 09:14:23 am
I'm with Tofu on that, can't prepare a costume that fast, no matter how bad i want to walk in to hollister in cosplay
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 19, 2008, 09:16:19 am
or crazy attire.  :D if it is Saturday I wish you guys all have a good time. :3
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: EveofAbyss on December 19, 2008, 09:16:27 am
I'm fine with Saturday, I won't be cosplaying, just attending, so I'm gooooood with anytime.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 19, 2008, 11:18:20 am
It was just a suggestion. I don't plan on going in costume anyway :P
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 19, 2008, 12:05:50 pm
I think Saturday's suppose to be bad. At least over here. It's predicted 6 - 10 inches of snow. But you never know. :O
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 19, 2008, 12:30:39 pm
hmmm, why dont we go next saturday, so that its after christmas, and there will be alot of people spending Christmas gifts.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: soundninja12 on December 19, 2008, 01:08:04 pm
that sounds good.
I think i can pull something together :)

I'm working next Satruday from........11:30 am to 4 pm but I have Friday off.....it might be too busy then >_> We could go after 4 on Saturday ;D
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 19, 2008, 05:15:37 pm
I can't go on that saturday. I have a meet up that day.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hidamari on December 19, 2008, 05:21:43 pm
okay. so will friday work for everyone?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 19, 2008, 09:51:20 pm
You mean.. the day after Christmas?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 20, 2008, 12:32:51 am
Friday would be ok for me just the fact that it is going to be very very busy that day >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 20, 2008, 08:39:01 am
Well if the weather is at least 1% merciful, I'll be coming as a Christmas Ninja, for cosplay and for warmth. I was going to drop in around noon or 1-ish. Since Hot Topic is the only sure place I remember in Washington Square, I was going to meet everyone and anyone there then do whatever. If there's going to be minimal cosplay, then we can just have it as a meet-ing to talk about the events coming up.

And yes, next saturday is the laser tag meetup.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 20, 2008, 10:27:07 am
We said Friday not Saturday
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 20, 2008, 01:35:20 pm
so the 26th then? Because with 6" of snow now...I'll just stay at home today.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Ri-chan on December 21, 2008, 05:03:59 am
I'd go. It depends on the snow. You guys want to go on the 26th? ARE YOU CRAZY! It's was bad as Black Friday last year. But count me in. I'm crazy enough for that in cosplay. It'd be like, "Wheee! Non-anime people Fear the ninja in orange! Whahaha!" I'll drag Sasuke too.(Sorry for the randomness of the post. I'm running on like an hour of sleep in the past three days :D)

No...
you must fear
the Ninja in red!
Mwa...ha ha ha! And orange!
Well what time would this one be at?

yeah I'm sure it will be bad >_> And I bed we might have to put it off due to the snow ;D
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 21, 2008, 10:59:31 am
meh I can't go at all. my dad says I already have to many things planned for break. :/
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 21, 2008, 12:49:12 pm
Oh my. You can never have too many things planned! But then again, minors and parents clash. My mother would never say anything like that. Partly because I'm old enough to make my own decisions, and the other part because she's pretty laid back.

Ahh, yeah. My guess is this won't happen due to snow.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 21, 2008, 12:51:30 pm
yeah mostly its because my parents are like 'you need to spend more time with family.' I do. more then with anyone else since I live so far away from people and what not and have no easy mode of transport.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 21, 2008, 12:53:24 pm
That's an easy card to pull. You could always tell them what you just said.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 21, 2008, 01:00:20 pm
I do though and their still all 'well you still need to stay. you have chores as well, you can't be out of the house all the time.' thing is I do, do m chores. they know that. they're just being parents. :/
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 21, 2008, 01:02:36 pm
Sounds like parents to me. My mother was never like that. But I think she realized that I was responsible, and didn't like leaving the house much anyway. So when I did, she was always fine with it.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 21, 2008, 01:06:27 pm
well they know I'm responsible. they give me allowance and I haven't spent any of it since kcon.

I get my homework in, high grades yada yada. their just...I dunno.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 21, 2008, 11:11:15 pm
Yeah it doesn't look like this is going to be happening. I guess it all depends on the weather Friday. I also may want to avoid the mall just cus XD

Sorry you are having issues with your parents. Once you turn 18 things should quiet down.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Ri-chan on December 22, 2008, 08:31:53 pm
I'm sorry for you too. I hope you and you parents work stuff out.

So is this getting postponed too?
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 22, 2008, 08:33:50 pm
@Ri-chan
thanks. :]
seems so, if not then canceled or something.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 22, 2008, 10:03:25 pm
I would assume so. I am not sure if the snow will be gone in time and even if it was I'm not too sure I would want to go the day after Christmas >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Ri-chan on December 23, 2008, 12:10:27 am
Okay I hope we can sometime. W.S. is sooooooo close for me :D
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 23, 2008, 07:37:06 am
Well, if I may suggest, on a side note. I'd ask your parents what they are afraid of if you did go. And second ask them what they have in mind for "being with family." Maybe they could come with you sometime and see what you do with us. I'm feeling a very gentle Cinderella concept here. Last question to ask them, what would it take for you to go to the next event.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: soundninja12 on December 23, 2008, 10:09:19 am
dang...
parents say I can't go, say it's gonna be too cold, and that I'm sick.
I am so not sick...
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 23, 2008, 11:25:11 am
we aren't even going to be going so don't worry ;D
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Hazuza on December 23, 2008, 09:22:09 pm
Heh. We're planning to go christmas shopping on the 26th, soooo~

If anyone sees a pikachu, come say hi 8D;
If anyone decides to go, that is o~o
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: tofutakeout on December 23, 2008, 09:23:32 pm
I'll probably come that day but I'll be on a date so I might not be able to hang to much. :/ but I will look for a pikachu if I do go that day.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 23, 2008, 10:20:55 pm
I MIGHT be there but I doubt it >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 24, 2008, 10:20:28 pm
So is it still on for Friday then? If so, I'll look for Pikachu if I can come. In that case look for a red ninja with a backpack and a large candy cane or a pirate wearing a fur overcoat with a yellow shield.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 24, 2008, 10:49:42 pm
I'm going to JoAnne's Friday for a pattern to make my ridiculous Organization coat! Then lurking around mouth breathing and possibly kicking a few people's asses at Brawl.

Sounds like fun. I might head over to Target. My sister got me some nice pj's but they are too big. I want them in the right size >_<

They are light blue satin and have dark blue dots all over them ^_^

But if I go anywhere on Friday it is just to Target and that's it. I'll probably go early in the morning too to try to avoid the crowds >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 24, 2008, 10:58:29 pm
Oh those sound really nice. x.x I want some now. XD Early is probably good. Although I'm sure there will still be a crowd, but probably not as big as there would be later on in the day.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 24, 2008, 11:06:15 pm
Yeah I'm sure there will be too. I just don't want to wait too long in the return lines x.x
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 24, 2008, 11:11:33 pm
I wouldn't want to either. Hopefully I won't have to return anything this year.

What time are you hitting JoAnn's? Because that's where I'll be at on friday too. Good place to progress towards the mall or whatnot.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 24, 2008, 11:32:49 pm
I have no idea! Depends on traffic, my friend, and my girlfriend.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 24, 2008, 11:38:43 pm
Well either way what should I look for there? I know I'm hunting a pikachu at the mall...to capture not kill. :)
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 24, 2008, 11:49:14 pm
I don't know. We aren't Cosplaying, if that's what you're asking. Just going in normal clothing!
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 25, 2008, 10:06:41 am
I'm looking at hitting Jo ann's around 10 or 11, then meeting at Washington Square at noon. I'd have to take off at 2:00 to catch the bus home.

They are going to try to get tomorrow to be like Black Friday. I think I am not going to go out at all >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 25, 2008, 01:24:07 pm
okay, question from the old noob. What is Black Friday? ???
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 25, 2008, 01:25:00 pm
The day after Thanksgiving sale that goes on on all stores. It's the biggest shopping day of the year.
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 25, 2008, 01:43:56 pm
then I may have to be a pirate and take my golden shield with me, just to get through. No swords though. ;)
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: nikkiolie on December 25, 2008, 05:20:50 pm
you are most likely going to be the only one there. So far only one other person is going. I am staying home that day. I might hang out with Marie but not at any store >_>
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: Sayda on December 25, 2008, 05:43:28 pm
Haah, yeah no way Jose. The only place I plan on going really is JoAnn's. I'm not going shopping anywhere until next week. I won't get any money until I see my dad on Sunday for 'Christmas'. XD
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 25, 2008, 10:50:04 pm
Well seems like MEW con is the next thing I might see everyone at, if the weather is clear enough.

Yeah tell me about it. My parents are planing on doing something latter today just because we need to get out of the house but I'm not sure what we are going to do. I am going to work a little on my Albel costume just in case I want to wear it during Mewcon ^_^

Right now the gloves are two different colors :P
Title: Re: Washington Square, anyone?
Post by: TurboSaiyanJason on December 26, 2008, 11:21:19 am
I'm going to try to make it. But I'm going to be a little late. I should be dropping in around 1 or 2:00 at the front of...JC Penny inside the mall or the bus stop. Wandering for a bit then heading home at 2:30. Hope to see anyone there! I not or I don't make it, there's always next time.
