AX 2004 rocked.
Since mina-san wrote about it, I figured that maybe I should too!.. especially since I only got to see most of you after 11PM O_o;
Just for entertainment purposes.. [post started: 5:22 PM]
Thursday
We figured, "why use paypal when we could just go to the registration a day early and wait? We have nothing better to do."
After 5 mins of waiting and looking around, we figured "fuck this crap. let's just pre-register tomorrow morning."
Friday
I went down to Gary's house at around 6:30 AM to register online. After many computer errors, and yelling at the dog to get the heLL out of the room, we finished the form. The stupid final screen said, "we will e-mail your receipt. You must print this out and bring it with you to registration." So we sat there for half an hour... refreshing our e-mails... over, and over, and over. Then I called
kikari and
iyoko answered with a ".........you don't need it...... bye.... [click]." gomen nee for the early call ._.
And we waited, and gladly saw Man-Faye in one of the lines. The best part was how someone yelled "Man-FAYE!" and most lines ran up to take pictures of/with him. Actually, I guess the best part was when staff yelled "this is not a photo-op. this is the registration line. if you'd like to register for AX, please return to your lines." Then while waiting, I won an X dvd [six] playing anagrams and figured out Fruits Basket. I rock.
While we looked around, we met up with Wilburn and Lynsan at the Mariott and we just talked about everything. They mentioned having a room and that if we wanted it, we could have it. Gary said no, I said yes. Can't resist $41 for 3 nights on the first floor in the first room of the Mariott.
...convention...blahblahblah...
...dance at night! other than the boring ravers and middle-school like circles was
iyoko kikari terri acidspit silentkay and Roberta (gomen if you have lj cause I dunno your un). I met Max, Kei, and Sho (haha I just got Kei and Sho :D) and they even let me crash at their room cause I didn't have a room key late at night and didn't wanna ask. Arigatoo for the tee
acidspit Saturday
...convention... blahblahblah... five finger discounts... yadayadayada...
...chilled with Gary again for awhile. Realized that we were hungry so we made noodle by making hot water from the coffee-machine and cooking the noodles in the ice-bucket they gave us (was anyone else's sink water white-ish and not clear?! o_O). For din-din, we went down to the Anaheim Hooters with Lynsan, Wilburn, Janet, and that one guy whose name I always forget but volunteered also.
After food, he dropped me off at home to pick up shutff and dropped me off at AX again. Arigatoo to yooh Gary!
Gave my sword to
terri, more dance dance that night again, and met with more people I never met before (gawd I'm horrible with names now). At least I remembered David, Spence, and Joey (some of the most interesting people I've ever met... if you know their usernames or SN's... onegai!). So yeah, went to the Hilton's women's restroom, surprised you guys get a couch and a marble table, talked the night away and laughed at the stupidest things ever (one nail... o_o... lol), and tried to look for hidden booty under the table. Maybe we should've played musical toilets... sounds kinda fun now.
Watched some Naruto in Max's room that night and crashed there... again. Arigatoo to
silentkay for the uber-cool pins (even though it was because you kicked me off the bed ^__^)
Sunday
Let's just skip the theatrics and get down to the night, k?
kikari and them's room for a little party. I got to see Spence's notebook and realized how cool it was to meet someone else that isn't female that keeps a journal with song lyrics, poetry, and mindless thoughts with them. Watched Ichi the Killer and everybody was just talking the entire night until morning.. most of us anyways.. not me. I was sleepy.
I woke up and thought I'd help out with the cleaning a bit with Spence. Had a little bit of entertainment with
silentkay and Spence by eating a spoonful of spaghetti mass we found in the corner (picture proof from Spence and
silentkay... coming soon).
Ok... enough about how I digress. AX 2004 rocked. nuff said.
