They told you already?!? That's so unfair! I'm glad you made it, although I'll be super pissed at you if I don't get in. XD I'll go on my Amazon buying spree as soon as I get back from Dolpa!
It's cause we need to buy airfare and y'alls don't. lol But yes, I got official notification I am in.
So I am in for the Cruise and the Sato event on Sunday so I guess I am going lol Not sure if I am going to make it the full 6 or so hours just cause I want to eat food I can eat. Am definitely going to my favorite place for dinner on Sun night in Kyoto.
I won the captain's hand/sword thing but I think lost the two outfits.
THANK YOU!!!! *hugs* I feel awful cause it is one less week end of Sukkot but secretly I've always wanted to get up close and personal with the bridge and this is a great chance.
I'm super nervous and excited. I also feel overwhelmed since it means I need to finish my doujinshi by then. ^^;;;
I hope you and the hubby have a great anniversary week end! :D

I seriously am still in shock that I won a space! I've never really done a boat cruise like this before and it's super exciting.
Do you know anyone else who applied??? I'm so curious if anyone else I know is going or might have heard. I guess people in Japan have to wait another 2 weeks or so.
Re: I have some friends going in Oct.rkoldAugust 21 2009, 23:37:06 UTC
Yes, I'm going back in Oct cause I have another event on the 18th that is a non-doll event.
Is it Idrisfynn and St. James and whoever else they are going with? I saw that they were going to be in Japan in Oct, I recc'd they try to go to the Sato event the following week end.
I think it's great too. I was going to apply as a VS member, but now I know much sooner so I can get my airfare now vs. September.
I thought your sister Rose might apply. But I guess not.
I'm glad I talked to a friend in Osaka and she said I could stay with her. :D
I'm going to pretend I'm not the teensiest bit of envious, and just be happy for you - Go you!!!
Bring lots of fun with you, give my very best to all the wonderful SD fans in Japan and the Volks folks, and take _lots_ of pix! (I hope you win something cool, too!)
I know this sounds all cliche, but to me just winning a space is enough of a win. I do not have high expectations to win anything else. I don't think I've even gotten 4 in a row at any bingo lol I don't even win the postcards lol
But winning a space on the cruise is pretty awesome! I also won a space at the Sato event the next day! :D
I shall try to get a lot of pictures. I will make sure to charge up the new camera and if I can I will try to make a few videos.
Awww I am sure you will get to go to Japan too and I will be sure to say hello for you to everyone Bruce. :)
I didn't realize you had to win those spaces. That being the case, you're right - you've used up all the luck anyone is legitimately entitled to - so enjoy the heck outta your winnings, LOL!

I think it's great that Volks decided to open it up to members in USA.

Sister started a new job so too soon for her to take a vacation. Maybe next spring or summer for her.

When is Brian going? I'm planning to go there for this event and then to come back later in the month for my other event and to sightsee. :D
He's welcome to email me, I love pontificating about Japan.
Ahhhh that's too bad for Rose. I hope she is able to go in the Spring or Summer then. :)

I feel very lucky people in Japan won't hear for another few weeks.
I still can't believe I won a place and will get to go on the cruise!
