The hell? First my best flight deals go up by $45 because I waited too long then the only person I know well enough to hang out with and have introduce me to others decides to up and cancel.

::disappointment::

I think i'm out too. This is just going to cost too much - and I have $30k worth of debt to deal with.

It's kind of ironic since I was supposed to be in Japan last year at the same time as AWA. Then my friend bailed on me at the last minute I had to miss both. :x

This must be some kind of Japan curse.

As press? :wink:

This is actually going to be my second time attending as press - the first time was thanks to some business cards I printed out on our dorm's laserjet and my ability to keep a straight face while bullshitting the press representatives. Good thing I have it easier this time around.

About the games or the boothbabes? :P

We can always rectify either at the dinner (though the later might be a bit tougher considering that 95% of creators are male).

i had to make my rambling make sense, kinda

Postby Hadien » Wed Jul 11, 2007 5:40 pm

the factory?

will they still ask us to try the veil, too?

it sounds sad, that many of you guys have to pay hundreds of dollars and many hours just to get here. luckily though for me i can get there in about a 2-3 minute drive. prolly even walk there

I guess I prolly live the closest to the civic center, a.k.a. AWA, unless someone else can argue. In fact, if I know you, i can let a couple of you guys sleep at my place, provided my roommates don't care. and i don't think they will. and that you don't tell housing, they have problems with visitors staying more than a couple nights

I may be nice and even supply a box full of microwavable pizza and\or a crate of ramen cups and/or bags. oooo and i have easy mac too!!

@ pilk

if you gonna smuggle anything, try and also bring that weird shit you brought last time. you know that black stuff in that 2 liter bottle. what was it called? and what was it made out of? I'm trying to remember what that tasted like.

... i think it was turpentine.

and bring alcohol, wait scratch that, I can bring it. I'm 21 this year round (and i haven't celebrated it yet)

oh and sadly, I'm not sure I'll be able to get those big ass pizzas i brought last time. looks like the place will be shut down very soon.

remember that job i was fired at in less than a week? well the boss there is such an asshole that all of his workers are either already fired or quit. he has no workers anymore. (hehe, the night of this diner will mark the anniversary of the last time i had a job. I was fired the day i met you guys last time at the diner)

oh, and if you haven't guessed, i'm coming too.
