I won't be able to get on until I'm home from work at 6 or so, so if you can get it to work then I'll talk to you about it tonight.

I'm bringing myself a pink towel to sit on.
I think that's appropriate.

This is gonna be sick!!! I'm so glad I'm gonna be able to join you guys on Saturday. I'm trying to convince my Friend to tag along too cause I'll go insane if I have to drive 9 hours all by myself. Let's make this Meeting LEGENDARY!!!

Go go go!

Bah, I can't belive this is tomorrow. Drive save everyone who is coming from far away.

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #259 on:** August 21, 2009, 02:31:31 pm »

Just got my ride made! Although if they come at the beginning of the window, I'll be there SUPER early.

By the way, I may not have my vest yet. The girl who's making it hasn't gotten back with me about where to pick it up.

Also, don't forget to bring some things for swap! And charge your DSes too! I've got a legit Arceus for tradebacks and I know a lot of people want a piece of that action.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself! There's always conversatin' to be had - *gasp* - I know, talking, it exists!!! I just found out eight minutes ago and it was the most magical thing I have ever experienced. T^T;

... Yes, that was all sarcasm. Well, except the 'don't stress yourself out' part. XD

I am very excited for this! Aaaand, last night at my youth group I wore the red contacts (with full permission from eye doctor man, huzzah) and they're like, the most comfortable things ever. I wore them for 7 hours and didn't feel a thing!!! My contacts from back in middle school/high school were the hard kind for astigmatism and they got uncomfortable within 2 hours! And it was SO much fun taking them out too, I got to pluck them off my eye - it was trippy!!! XD

[/end weird contact lense rant]

Crap, and I can't find my DS charger... Might not be bringing it if I can't charge it, gaaaah.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #261 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:47:05 pm »

fleur_fraise · « **Reply #262 on:** August 21, 2009, 09:37:32 pm »

I'll be bringing my DS :'D

It seems most likely that I'll be able to go, and I'll be bringing two friends with me. One of them will take pictures, and another will be cosplaying, as far as I know.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #263 on:** August 21, 2009, 09:44:48 pm »

Okay so I don't know exactly when I'm gonna get there. bus 31 takes forever to pick up. :< and trimet says it'll take an hour to get there. lol But I'll try to be there around 11. XD

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #264 on:** August 21, 2009, 09:46:51 pm »

Take tons of pictures, guys! I want you to make me jealous of what I missed! (Won't be hard.. but still!) O:<
Sorry I couldn't come. T~T
I'll try to make it to the photoshoot at con.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #265 on:** August 21, 2009, 10:03:53 pm »

I've got everything ready and my route planned out.
Bus 88 > BTC > MAX > Washington Park.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #266 on:** August 21, 2009, 10:36:43 pm »

okay so now I need to know. I could get a ride to my first bus stop at the TC but then When all is said and done I'd be at the park around 10. Is there anyone that will be showing up that early?

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #267 on:** August 21, 2009, 10:44:42 pm »

makichan · « **Reply #279 on:** August 22, 2009, 03:00:54 pm »

Hey! Just got back from the event and had a good time. I'm currently uploading/editing some photos so I'll have a link up eventually.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #280 on:** August 22, 2009, 03:13:17 pm »

Hey guys! I wanted to say thanks for a wonderful event! I'm sorry we all before you guys were done but my boyfriend was feeling sick. That was super excellent though, I hope everyone had as much fun as I did.

Also to whoever brought the pokeball cake for me: That was the sweetest thing ever. Thank you so much, it really meant a lot to me. I'm so sorry that we were leaving by the time you came but please tell me who you and your friends are! I'm going to make something to give to you guys after con is over.

More update, uploads, and such later. I have to take care of the tired pokemon I took to my house.

makichan · « **Reply #281 on:** August 22, 2009, 04:06:29 pm »

Here's a sneak peak of my photos:

I hope the link works. Feel free to take any of 'em :>

Oh god, my face in everyone of those pictures makes me laugh.
I also need to stand up straight in that costume or it is very unflattering D:

Great pictures though Maki, I'm really happy you came :>

In one of them, I noticed it looked like you were about to burst into tears or something. O.o
You have a really expressive face.

THIS ONE!

BlackjackGabbiani · « **Reply #284 on:** August 22, 2009, 06:16:55 pm »

Cuuute!

Although guys, I have to say, it really upset me when you all walked away from me at once. I mentioned earlier that I have leg problems and couldn't find the inserts to my shoes, so I could barely walk, and when I asked if anyone wanted to stay with me at the bottom of the hill, you all turned away at once without a word, and that just hurt. And we'd been having a good time before that so I know it probably wasn't anything personal, but still. It's a medical problem (and before anyone brings it up because I hear it all the time, it happened when I was at my ideal weight), and climbing hills is difficult for me even *with* the inserts--without them, it's damn near impossible.

Just...yeah. Good thing the con shoot will be on flat land.

So, Suicunegirl and some guy whose name I didn't catch--you wanted me to bring some stuff from the backpack to the con, right? The Brock's Vulpix card and "anything with Mudkips"?

Oh yeah! And someone hadn't heard of my character, so this is Hayley!

tofutakeout · « **Reply #285 on:** August 22, 2009, 06:43:34 pm »

Agh god! I love the photos that I'm seeing so far. This really was an amazing event. <3 I just got home because I got side tracked while downtown. >_> I went and bought some things at the sanrio store because I'm addicted. (and I secretly found 20 bucks in my pocket) magical day or what?

Totally fun when people kept randomly showing up. I can't wait for con when I can see everyone else that wasn't there today. ^_^

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #286 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:08:03 pm »

@DemonSpawn- I was watching someone kill a dog. No, I was probably listening to someone. Haha, I look like I'm a baby.

Man of the Public · « **Reply #287 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:22:05 pm »

This was a huge success.

Now I just need to find some good pictures of me.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #288 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:24:52 pm »

Go to facebook. I tagged some of you.

DemonSpawn · « **Reply #289 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:30:33 pm »

@Boogie *hopes this isn't creepy* You have really pretty eyes! O.o
I love looking at people's eyes, to me, they're the most expressive part of someone's face.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #290 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:35:38 pm »

@Demonspawn- Haha, it isn't creepy and thank you~ That's really sweet of you to say :>

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #291 on:** August 22, 2009, 07:40:01 pm »

Hey everyone it is griff lol I have a facebook idk how it works but my name is ted griffin if you ant to look for me. We had fun and can't wait for the photoshoot I won't be posting the picture. Soundninja will be doing that. And love the pics so far

Hiiiiiiiiiiii! I just got home. Holy crap, Nikki, we took a right when we should have taken a left and ended up in Aloha and all these other weird places. XDDD Finally we backtracked to one place and sure enough, like, a few blocks from where we SHOULD have taken a left were signs for Salem, haha. Getting lost sure is enlightening.

Now I am home, extremely tired, and uploading pictures!! I can't wait to look at everyone elses too!!! I am definitely taking my hoody in though, it's so big, and I am thinking of being more dramatic with the makeup too. Decisions decision~

I had a wonderful time, thank you everyone, I hope to see you at con!

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #294 on:** August 22, 2009, 08:27:42 pm »

You left my house at the wrong time Mei, we started watching Zombie Strippers after you left

And wearing Victreebel to the meetup make me realize I have to fix some things to make it wearable for con.

Oh, like what?

I need to make Hayley's vest smaller. Ranch vests are really short and they don't connect in the front.

~boogiepop~ · « **Reply #298 on:** August 22, 2009, 10:16:05 pm »

Make it so my boobs are constantly falling out of the dress. One of the snaps came off of the leaves too.

Griff_the_dragoon · « **Reply #299 on:** August 22, 2009, 10:19:41 pm »

Not good nikki. Well hope you get that fixed soon.
And we are almost home it is 10:15 pm and I am the first stop. Wow took us longer to get home then up to the meet up lol. Sad
