I tried to start a PM chain, but the Kcon forums don't let you PM more than two people at once, and I didn't have everyone's emails. >>

This is a thread for Hashi, Malaria, Felix, Jaqua, Auricle, Kero-sempai, and myself (and anyone I missed >> ) to plan when we wanna get together to have our costume making party. Each of you should reply to this thread so I know you found it! Then we can get down to planning! : D

jaqua · « **Reply #1 on:** March 06, 2010, 01:46:08 pm »

I'm free pretty much whenever... So plan away my dears : D

Malaria · « **Reply #2 on:** March 06, 2010, 02:37:29 pm »

We should figure out if all our spring breaks overlap. I am out from March 20-28.

Felix · « **Reply #3 on:** March 06, 2010, 08:34:02 pm »

I'll be in portland on the ... thirteenth, I think. I'm leaving on the 26th, if I remember correctly. (the same break as Malaria's minus the last weekend. plus the previous week because budget cuts.)

for a meeting place... as long as it's in Portland or reachable by bus/max/etc. Or if someone can give me a ride that's cool too.

Auricle · « **Reply #4 on:** March 06, 2010, 09:42:34 pm »

I'm free on the 13th and 14th and from the 22nd through the 26th. (I have all kinds of C.A.R./D.A.R. crap to do on the weekend in spring break. ' w '

I don't think I'll actually have the stuff to be making progress on a costume, so is it okay if I bring papercrafts to make or something just so I look busy? = w =

Malaria · « **Reply #5 on:** March 06, 2010, 10:04:07 pm »

Like we'd stop you from making adorable papercraft.

goatchild · « **Reply #6 on:** March 06, 2010, 10:33:00 pm »

...looks like we're meeting sometime between the 22nd and the 26th then, cuz my and Hashi's spring break is the same week as Malaria's. XD It's fine with me if we meet in my dorm room. I just have to make sure I tidy it up so there isn't stuff everywhere like there usually is. : P And my roommate doesn't care either, and probably won't be there.

Malaria · « **Reply #7 on:** March 06, 2010, 10:38:44 pm »

How are we going to fit five working cosplayers into your dorm room? XD

I could ask about my house, but I'd feel kind of bad ruining my mother's day like that. ._.

Felix · « **Reply #8 on:** March 06, 2010, 11:01:54 pm »

but Yagi's dorm is OH SO SPACIOUS.
seriously you should see mine I'm sure I've seen larger closets.

goatchild · « **Reply #9 on:** March 06, 2010, 11:52:38 pm »

As far as dorm rooms go, it is quite spacious, yes. And I can make it bigger if I push my bed against the wall. It could work. Also, I don't really wanna lug my sewing machine all the way out to Beaverton. >>

Felix · « **Reply #10 on:** March 07, 2010, 12:44:48 am »

That wouldn't be fun.
ugh I need to get my act together if I want to finish all my costumes on time. (well Adam is easy but the other ones...)

WE WILL MAKE IT WORK. SUCH IS THE EXTENT OF OUR AWESOME.

goatchild · « **Reply #11 on:** March 07, 2010, 12:58:42 am »

YES WE SHALL. AND WITH SIX OF US ALL TOGETHER, OUR AWESOME WILL BE SO POWERFUL THAT IT WILL BEND THE RULES OF THE UNIVERSE TO DO OUR BIDDING. And then we will have finished cosplays and all will be well. : D (cuz that means I at least won't be spending waaay more money than I should on costumes for at least a month or two)

Auricle · « **Reply #12 on:** March 08, 2010, 01:11:07 pm »

I would offer my house as a possibility, but you guys probably don't want to come all the way out to Hillsboro. My mum does have a sewing machine and a serger though. There's plenty of space to fit many people~ = 3

Kero-sempai · « **Reply #13 on:** March 08, 2010, 06:17:13 pm »

I'd offer my house, too, but if everyone was going to trek out to Hillsboro, Brittany's would be more convenient overall, because it has easy max access/the sewing machine (that Yagi wouldn't have to lug. : D).

*late* M-My break is the same as Valeria/Hashi/yours. The plausible dates are good for me~

@Malaria: ...She can't dislike hosting so much, can she? ;;

Yes you do. ಠ_ಠ The universe is out for your free time this break.

Malaria · « **Reply #14 on:** March 08, 2010, 06:28:31 pm »

No, but it'd cut into one of her work days. And everything=stress for her.

Felix · « **Reply #15 on:** March 08, 2010, 06:50:57 pm »

I don't understand people like that because I'm pretty easygoing. I rarely get stressed.... I guess I just don't see the point when it's something you can't change anyway.

I don't even know where Hillsboro is. I like the idea of being in Portland because I'll fail less. (and I can probably remember where Yagi's dorm is this time. Probably. Though the last time really wasn't my fault.)

Hmmm. Do we have possible dates yet? Also we can hang out more than one day... I'm in town for almost two weeks. I think that's a good idea because I really don't have anything better to do and if I'm just lurking around at home my mother will probably try to make me do stupid boring things.

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #16 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:11:16 pm »

-stalks-

Malaria · « **Reply #17 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:21:35 pm »

If you can get up here, you'd totally be welcome to jam yourself into Yagi's dorm with us.

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #18 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:31:06 pm »

I only wish.

Stupid mountains. :B

Malaria · « **Reply #19 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:38:17 pm »

AIN'T NO MOUNTAIN HIGH ENOUGH

Are you ever in Portland for stuff other than cons? We'll probably still be sewing stuff through the summer. xP

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #20 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:50:07 pm »

AIN'T NO VALLEY LOW ENOUGHH~

Yeah I am, though it's usually for family stuff and I have a very limited time. Like I might be going to Vancouver someday around the 24th of this month for a dentist appointment. But it will only be a day trip and it is 3 hours both ways. And I was just up there for a wedding. Stuff like that.

Malaria · « **Reply #21 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:52:34 pm »

3:
We'll have to do a better job actually seeing you at con this time. Coming to the Sak panel?

Cassiopeia · « **Reply #22 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:55:55 pm »

For sure.

goatchild · « **Reply #23 on:** March 08, 2010, 08:07:08 pm »

I'd be fine with Auricle's house. I just have to make sure I make the stuff I need to work on portable. I tend to work by grabbing random stuff from around my room when I need it. >> And we could definitely meet for more than one day, maybe one day at Auricle's house and one day in my dorm? ~~OMG WE SHOULD MAKE PEEP SMORES. I HAVE PEEPS. AND A MICROWAVE. AND A STOVE. 8DDD~~

@Felix: More chainmail love~! And Hillsboro is at the veeerrry end of the Blue Max line going west. It can be another adventure, like riding the WES!

Felix · « **Reply #24 on:** March 08, 2010, 11:21:17 pm »

WHEEE ADVENTURE~! We should go together so I don't get lost. I don't get lost easily but Hillsboro sounds like the sort of place that's begging to get lost in.

Marshmallow creeps me out. I will play with it but not eat it.
It has weird Felix-repelling ingredients in it.

Hashi · « **Reply #25 on:** March 09, 2010, 12:20:51 am »

IIII dont really have anything to work on haha... Um. I need to add trim to Germany, and sew on fur. o_o;

but I'll happily help anyone else!

Also, sorry about replying so late haha. I was there when Yagi made this thread so I just..never thought to reply >> oops

Auricle · « **Reply #26 on:** March 09, 2010, 09:07:47 am »

@Kero: I know. ;_; It's going to eat my life. Oh~ I found Interview with the Vampire, if you still want to borrow it. : D

@Felix: Don't worry. As long as you're traveling with Malaria or Yagi you'll get off at the right stop, and from there my house is only three blocks away. I can come pick you guys up at the station. = 3 If you ever find the urge to check out Hillsboro, you'll probably find that the downtown area (where I live) has a small-town type feel and that there are a lot of antique stores. Other than downtown most of it is urban sprawl. Hillsboro is not in fact very hilly, it was named after it's founder, David Hill, who is buried in the Hillsboro pioneer cemetery. I get to go and put flowers on his grave every memorial day 'cause of D.A.R. = w =

Felix · « **Reply #27 on:** March 09, 2010, 11:49:37 am »

It would depend on the type of small town. There are towns like Ashland where the main street is lined with cool shops, and there are creepy small towns (like the one we went to JoAnn's in) where there's nothing but a shady-looking shopping centre and a gas station and a few fast-food restaurants. Hopefully Hillsboro is more Ashland-like. (but Ashland is also a tourist town...)

Malaria · « **Reply #28 on:** March 09, 2010, 02:04:16 pm »

Felix: Tigard isn't that scary. >>; Hillsboro really neat and clean, and a lot of the buildings are styled to look old, so it's pleasant overall.

Hashi: I can keep you busy. There's still Erik to do after Austria and Dib. -thumbs up-

jaqua · « **Reply #29 on:** March 09, 2010, 02:19:20 pm »

You guys are making me want to go to Hillsboro now. I have a secret and severe weakness for antique shops :|

Felix · « **Reply #30 on:** March 09, 2010, 04:57:59 pm »

Not so much scary as... dull.
WE SHOULD CHECK THEM OUT WHILE WE'RE THERE.
I WILL SAVE YOU FROM SPENDING ALL YOUR MONEY JAQUA.
MY MISERLYNESS WILL RUB OFF ON YOU.

Ah. The poor woman. ;-; What occupation does she work?

@Auricle: I actually got lucky and found a book I was looking for at the library, for once. I have a serious love/hate thing going on with it now, and I need to get myself the second book. (I feel bad for Lestat. I liked him. ;-; ) Thank you for thinking of me~

@Yagi: ...I think we would have to. Somehow I don't see enough of the work getting done in one day with one sewing machine. xD ~~YES, WE SHOULD. >8D I really want to be there to see that. And maybe catch it on tape. WHO BETS THEY'LL CATCH FIRE? 8DDD~~

@Felix: Not so much dull as "you had to be there" to get it. Or "not user-friendly." That's what I feel, anyway. XD

Antique shops~ There's some neat things in LeStuff. We'll all go pop into a couple if they're open. : D

Auricle · « **Reply #32 on:** March 09, 2010, 09:23:32 pm »

@Felix: Malaria pretty much summed it up. Except that a lot of the houses actually are pretty old. My house was built in 1890. : D

@Jaqua: Please visit anytime you feel like it~

@Kero: I have most of The Vampire Chronicles, so you could borrow at least through the sixth book from me. ' w '

Heeey everyone. So my older sister and some of her friends and I are going to have a picnic/blossom viewing party this thursday near my house. If any of you are free and would like to, you're welcome to join~ We'll be providing lunch and tea and snacks for everyone.

Felix · « **Reply #33 on:** March 10, 2010, 12:13:07 am »

I WOULD IF I WAS THERE BUT I'M NOT. D8

goatchild · « **Reply #34 on:** March 10, 2010, 12:33:12 am »

I might go. If I get enough homework/studying done. Curse you finals. @~@

Felix · « **Reply #35 on:** March 10, 2010, 02:54:37 am »

Oh finals.
I have one tomorrow at eight in the morning.
trying to go to sleep and get up that early will just make everything worse, so I slept this afternoon and I'm just going to stay up all night... it made sense in my head.

I need some way to occupy myself now. For the next... eh, four hours. Maybe if I kick my motivation enough I'll actually have the willpower to draw. 8D;;

Auricle · « **Reply #36 on:** March 10, 2010, 08:24:33 am »

Yagi, we're all going to be meeting at my house around noonish. If you're definitely coming, can you call me that morning to let me know, and also call a couple of stops before your train gets in so I can come get you at the station? = 3

So since we're going to be getting together twice while Felix is in Portland, what dates should we meet? ' 3 '

goatchild · « **Reply #37 on:** March 10, 2010, 09:30:38 am »

I just remembered I have class tomorrow from noon to 2pm (you'd think I'd remember something like that). So I guess I won't be going. : x

I vote we get together any two days between the 23rd, 24th, or 25th. I'd rather not meet on Friday the 26th cuz my roommate's boyfriend arrives Saturday to stay with us for a week, and I'd like to get as much of my Sakuracon packing as possible done before then.

Felix · « **Reply #38 on:** March 10, 2010, 09:46:10 am »

Also on the 26th I might be on the way back to Ashland already.

Huh I stayed up all night and I'm not tired at all. is that weird?

Auricle · « **Reply #39 on:** March 10, 2010, 10:29:10 am »

That's okay, Yagi. ' w ' Should we meet two days in a row or have a day inbetween? ' 3 '

Felix, that is weird. Cool, but weird. : D

Felix · « **Reply #40 on:** March 10, 2010, 11:07:15 pm »

8D
I WANT TO DO IT AGAIN TONIGHT WHY IS THIS SO FUN?

...I don't know. I don't think I'm doing anything else on those days so... anything works for me?
also I may come downtown the week before to lurk around and generally be a creeper and hang out with whoever happens to be around. just so you guys know. those of you who live/go to school downtown. I kind of don't have anything better to do.

goatchild · « **Reply #41 on:** March 10, 2010, 11:57:33 pm »

@Felix: By the week before, do you mean next week? Me and Hashi will be around until Thursday probably. : 3

How about we meet the 23rd and 25th so we have a day in between ~~to recover from awesomefuntime overload~~. Do we wanna meet at Auricle's house first, or my dorm? Either works for me.

Felix · « **Reply #42 on:** March 11, 2010, 05:40:29 am »

uhh. yeah, that one. xD; (I could have just said that to begin with...)

WHAT HOW IS OVERLOAD POSSIBLE.
but I'm cool with whatever. I'll be able to commandeer my brother's bus pass for that whole week so ...

jaqua · « **Reply #43 on:** March 11, 2010, 11:59:20 pm »

Alrighty. I think those days might be perfect for me, or at least close, since the 22nd I'm probably going on a road trip up to Seaside. For like a day. But a road trip nonetheless. That will be a busy week for me xD yayyyyy

@Felix: um we should have a sleepover when you get into town y/y? When's your first day of break again?

Felix · « **Reply #44 on:** March 12, 2010, 01:43:02 am »

YES WE SHOULD.
I'll be back on Saturday the thirteenth. I'll most likely arrive in the late afternoon/evening, depending on when we leave. (which probably won't be too early seeing how late I've been staying up. or maybe I'll pull another all-nighter and sleep in the car...)

jaqua · « **Reply #45 on:** March 12, 2010, 12:21:41 pm »

Okay. I might have to have surgery this weekend but if I do I'll pop some vicodin and deal with it. And then you can listen to me complain about how hungry I am. 8D (because i might have to have a tonsillectomy and removing tonsils makes swallowing painful or so i have heard)
But yeah. Call me or something when you're here and we can make some plans.

This is definitely an on-topic post.

Felix · « **Reply #46 on:** March 12, 2010, 02:54:22 pm »

we're talking about meeting, right? hey, it's more on-topic than some of the stuff we clutter the hetalia thread with.

okay! I'll call whenever. BE SURE TO PICK UP.

AND HAY LOOK FOR ONCE MY POST ISN'T AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE.

Auricle · « **Reply #47 on:** March 12, 2010, 07:10:54 pm »

Why don't we meet at Yagi's dorm first and then my house second? = 3

It's White Day this weekend~ I want to celebrate and feed people cookies. = w =

jaqua · « **Reply #48 on:** March 12, 2010, 09:28:51 pm »

That's perfect for me : D because depending on what time we're meeting I may be the teeniest bit late and I think I'll be able to find Yagi's dorm faster than Auricle's house by myself, if the need arose xD

Speaking of which, what time should we plan to meet? Like, morning, afternoon...

goatchild · « **Reply #49 on:** March 12, 2010, 09:32:44 pm »

That's fine with me. And I say 11am at the very earliest. I don't start functioning till around them on non-school days. >>
