Back home in the Bay Area again. It was a whirlwind trip of utmost fun!
I stepped into Beverly Hills Center about a half an hour after arriving in LA and just thought to myself, "YUP. I am most definitely in LA." Surrounding by skinny twigs with lots of makeup and super fashionable attire, I was a bit out of place with my laptop and laidback attitude. But whatever. :D I hung out at the coffee shop, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, which we don't have up in Nor. Cal. but it had free wi-fi which I took advantage for a few hours.
I panicked and flailed over my
je_holiday before meeting up with
lilkimmiebaby and heading out to the bridal shop to try on dresses for
veilsdegto's wedding! We worked everything out and bought the dresses! Three bridesmaid dresses was equal to the cost of one of the THREAD dresses
veilsdegto had originally wanted. :Dv But we're all happy with it and that's the important thing.
Met up with
seshat,
sakon76, and
kazuhiko04 along with my gracious host & hostess for the night for dinner! It was lovely and I think I broke
kazuhiko04's brian while showing
sakon76 the Eito Renja skit. *___* EITOOOO RENJAAAA!!!!! I love how it's all tokusatsu style in boyband form. :Dv
The next day was a fandom sort of day with lots of flailing, dorking around, shopping at Kinokuniya, rockin' out to NewS or KAT-TUN, glee at the Kanjani8 photobook, me FLAILING over the w-inds. photobook, lots of hugging and thug poses or EITO RENJA poses, and giggling. Because you can't have 5 girls hanging out withOUT lots of giggling. Not possible. Nope. But I had a blast with
karinberry (who was an absolute doll and so fun and cool and took me to the airport!),
ilanabean42 (who is cute and adorable and laughs at my flaily self), her sister (who is cool and into cosplay and so I may try to get her to come up for Fanime!), and
saturnianlove (who is cute and adorable and huggable and squishy and my "gangsta-poser-or-tongue-out-like-jin"-partner in silly pictures). :D
I was really sad to part ways with them. D: NEXT TIME, y0, we are gonna do karoake, y/y?!
But it was a good trip and I am going back next May for the bridal shower. :D wheeeee!
Now it is POLL TIME for my JE-flisters! This is just to GAUGE interest. Nothing's concrete and I don't even know if I am gonna plan it or if someone else wants to plan it because you know, I'm a nobody in the fandom and I'd rather hang out with people I talk to on my flist because y'all are coolbeans and I wouldn't read your entries if I think y'all were CREEP (and not the cute Subaru!Creep either!)
Poll Interested in a JE-fandom meet up?
