Dun. DUN. DUUUUN. Otakon shit ahoy here. And if this ends up rambly... Oh well. =o=

First of all, I have a list of the people so far that are going to Ota with me. If your name isn't on the list and you told me a jillion years ago and I forgot you... nows the time. 8D

MeCheza
PanHichi
KevinRose
ImoutoMel
TerellKris
KristinaSlot 1 [Kevin]
AndrewSlot 2 [Kevin]
JessieSlot 3 [Cheza]


So, I repeat, if you aren't the list and feel you should be, poke me now, damnit. >/ As an aside, Jen-tachi and Manda have their own room but that room is in my name for now. I'm trying to get another room in the Sheraton for them so we'll all be together, but I have to confirm my OTHER rooms first. If I don't have those, I'll be throwing things around.

For Jen-tachi + Manda: The rooms I have in the Holiday Inn... One of them has two beds, BUT I couldn't get it for Saturday Night cus it was sold out. >_> So it's for Th-F night. The king bed room extends through the entire weekend, and if I can't get the room at the Sheraton, I'll extend the Holiday Inn room til Monday for you guys.

For anyone who is driving up, or taking a bus, or train, etc, I would prefer you to either come to my house Wednesday night or meet me AT THE HOTEL on Thursday. We should be there by 3pm, but with traffic and my l337 driving skills, it may be before or after. Who knows~!

I have 4 cars in the works, but if I only have 12 people only, pffft then I'll drop it down to 3 cars. We'll have a mini caravan. 8D Everyone'll have directions to if you accidentally get left behind, I won't stop and wait for you |3~

If you're flying in then you need to TELL ME SOON/NOW/ASAP/WHENEVER YOU KNOW FOR SURE what you're going to do to get to the hotel. If I have to drop by the BMI to pick you up, I have to add in more money for gas. If you don't want me to bother with picking you up, I know that the BMI has a shuttle that goes to and from that you need to RESERVE first. It's 13 bucks a person OR you can rent a shuttle for 65 that can hold 7 people and all their shit. 8D; I hope all your stuff... You might want to rent one and all of my people meet up and take that one bus cus it's cheaper by... >_> 2 dollars a person or something.

Otakon pre-reg is up, if you guys didn't know already, so get that done, too. I don't require it to come up there, but we all make a trip of it on Thursday. Waiting in line and talking and laughing and complaining about the heat. -_-;

I also want to go to dinner on Thursday night. Nothing big and fancy. We can go invade the local McDonalds [or order pizza] or actually go and eat at the Harbor since it's just down the street. We'll be a huuuuge group of 20 or more. 8D;;; Sure they'll loooove that shit >_>

Anyway, if you have any questions or anything about the trip, poke me. As far as price goes. Looks to be about 60 bucks a person [in my two rooms; Jen-tachi have their own pricing to figure out] then 20 for gas and 20 for parking. Or something like that. I don't know. =_=

Plan youy own shit DX No cut for you all. Again.

Otakon Prices


Yes. Already. Long as fuck table starting from 6 people up to 16. After the 9th person, I add another room, so that explains the price spike at 10 people.

As usual, people who drive get a bed. That's just how it is, but for all other spots, we're going to draw straws or something... pick a name out of the hat well before the actual day. That way, we know who gets a bed and who has to bring a sleeping bag.

No one sleeps on the end of the bed. We can draw lots for the chair, too, if you guys really want to... =_= That's about it, for beds...

Long Table is long... )


I don't even want to think about gas prices. I'm not gonna think about that chart for another few months. Parking is something I figure out closer as well, since we're definitely going to have two cars, but it's all up in the air. Depends mostly on gas mileage. Good gas mileage > smaller trunk. Just buy less shit. ^_^ Or pack tight, one or the other. If gas is 4 bucks a goddamn gallon as they say it will be, space will be sacrificed. It's only a 3 hour drive. Suck it up. >/

HEYHEYEHY!

It's still Christmas for me so

MERRY CHRISTMAS

And now that I'm done with that... I just want to know.

WHO PLANS ON GOING WITH ME TO OTAKON THIS YEAR~♫♪


Cus I'm not curious or excited or anything. I just wonder, cus it's ONLY 8 MONTHS AWAY. That and I need a more realistic count of any LJ only people who are coming. My RL friends I can badgerbadgerbadger any time I want.
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (Default)
Hoozah~! I've already made reservations for the hotel for Otakon next year... yes... It's ridiculous... But either way, I made them for the Radisson [since that's the only one that was taking reservations at this time... Holiday Inn said to wait until next month, not that I trust them]

So, I have two doubles for 159 a night from Thursday to Saturday Night. I can cancel them without penalty up to August 5th... Same 12.5% hotel rate, but the parking deck exclusive to the Radisson is 28 a night.... like hell would I pay that...

And so, this has been you Otakon 2008 update.................. almost a year in advanced.... That is so retarded....

Otakon 2007
July 20th – 22nd


It's convention time, everybody! Or at least it was the weekend before last. Being that it's over, here is my obligatory post of ranting d00m that describes most of what I did at the con. Mostly it's so I can keep track because otherwise, I would forget every damn thing that happened. Seriously.

As a general warning… this is totally useless and I wouldn't suggest reading it… [/warning]

In excruciating detail… Thursday-Sunday [aka Monday Morning] )
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (remember)
.........OMG I can't even look at my flist without twitching 'cus everyone's all 'OMGHP7 jaksfj;asf' and I refuse to be spoiled... I'll kill you all. 8D

So yeah, Otakon update eventually, probably within a week cus I tend to forget shit otherwise........

This is the SCREENED post that I'm leaving for anyone on LJ who needs to leave me their contact information [namely cellphone] before we leave for Otakon. I'll comment with mine when you leave yours, so all shall be well. 8D

This is my OtaKaMikuzu CD I for the Otakon trip next week. So, anyone in the car with me will be forced coerced committed to have a lovely ride with this soundtrack in the background~ Yes. It's yet ANOTHER list. 8D Ph34r my listing prowess and my utterly bizarre mix of music. Under the cut for less spam~ )And look, you lazy asses. I even LINKED the songs for you from youtube. But you will notice I have lots of random MSI songs on there. Sue me. Also, If it's from an Anime OP, I linked the short version, except for Code Geass. I think this is where I say 'I <3 Flow' and therefore I linked their PV. W00t? If I picked the song up from an AMV I liked, then the AMV is linked. Otherwise, PVs or Music Videos are linked... [/OCD]

Oh~ Pan... Ahahahaha Bring The Pain - Jungle wa Itsumo Hare Nochi Guu AMV | Assuming you haven't seen it before OR I haven't already showed it to you before. I forget.
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (smexy)
Oh Cheeezaaaaaaaaaaa!

I know you're going to be buying your tickets tomorrow, so I need you to tell me the time I have to pick you up. AND, more importantly than that, is the time when you need to be back to get home. Make it as last as possible Sunday night, or worse case scenario, you can make it for Monday morning. BUT, either way, I need to know the times so I can plan around your arrival and such.
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (muka)
Because these results made me just......... well...

...damn you evil personality quizzes... )

Stop laughing Qing... D8!! You too, Pan!

Alright, MOAR OTAKON news. This really is only for Pan, who reads my journal and Andrew [who I link to it for random stuff] and Cheza, who is supposedly coming with us and if she cancels I'll beat her with a stick. A really sharp and pointy one with thorns on it or something.

WE. MUST. LEAVE. BY. 12PM. No ifs ands or buts. I expect that Cheza will be ready to leave when she gets here since she'll already be packed. She might want to take a shower and eat before we leave or wait until we get to the Hotel room. ::shrugs:: I don't know, but I assume she'll be getting in around 9amish or earlier for me to pick her up.

Imouto will have spent the night at my house somehow or I'll have to go get her though I prefer not to as that's more gas I have to pay for before we even leave. Either way, we're not waiting on her for anything, because when we have a deadline to keep, she's the most likely to hold us up waiting for money or something.

Pan... >_> You have to pick up not only Jessie and Shan, but also Andrew, unless he's going to leave his car at my house or yours...

EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE AT MY HOUSE BY 11:15 YOU LATE LITTLE BASTARDS D8 because if I say be at my house by 12 we'll leave at, like, 1pm and I'll get very pissy. Last minute trips to the store, getting gas, bathroom before we leave sucks up time like a mofo and I won't be late.... >_> We have to get there to pay our part of the hotel damnit.

Oh, and are we still going to go to Walmart as a group or is everyone going to fend for themselves and get anything they need for the trip on their own, because there's no group trip right before we leave this year.
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (remember)
Feel free to laugh at me...

I'm just in a calculating mood, so sue me. Hotel prices as far as I've calculated )

GAH. Tax is so painful... and I SWEAR I'm done spamming............ but probably not........... maybe...

Instead of another post, here, have a cut for parking costs. )

For future reference so I don't have to go back to the Otakon/Days Inn site for the address:

110 South Eutaw Street
Baltimore MD, 21201
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (Sorrow)
But that hardly matters as I hardly post in my persona LJ at all... =_=

Well this blurb is for Gas cost to Otakon. Being that Pan and I are driving, it's really only for us. Gas prices make me cry.

Why does everything cost at LEAST one arm? )
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (Default)
Seren, I need to catch you on AIM or through e-mail Done and Done.

Aaand, then other Otakon stuff. This is about money, what I'm buying, and random crap. So the first part you can be like 'Holy shit this bastard's greedy!' but after that, blah.

I want the world, but can only afford a stamp-sized plot in the middle of the ocean... It's list time! )

That being said, since I DO get a percent off, and assuming Mike allows me, I can take orders for anyone if they want manga/anime for the 30% off price, as usually they don't go lower than 25% off at most booths. But only the expensive ones or if you only have a few you want. =_= I don't want to get him mad...

And if I do work with Mike a lot, I might end up going 'Full time' and get free hotel and food, and that means I'd be going to a LOT more conventions, even if I have to work. I think he said I still get the credits, too, and my percent off, and that's a winning situation if you ask me, especially since it's like getting paid 10 dollars an hour and that's more than I make at my regular job.

So yeah, paying for this... )

Gah. What a waste of an entry. I really hope no one read this............... and, ahaha, Spell check? What's that?
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (Sorrow)
kjaj;sfd?!?!

Did I mention kjasl;djakl;sjfda?!?!?

DAMN you. I have to go to the bank and.... so shit! Stupid mother fucking over-draft fees. FOUR of them. Yeah, two are my fault, but the other two, hellllllz no. I refuse to pay 80 dollars in over draft fees. REFUSE. I thought I have overdraft protection from my savings. Noooo. ::cursing rabidly at bank::

Anyway, Otakon. ::falls over:: I always want to have lots of money to spend there, as every year I go could be my last, but these last two times I have been sooooo totally brokish when I go. Damnit! I want to go and fucking get commissions and shit, but... I guess I can wait and gets cards and shop around and e-mail them about it later, but a lo tof the times, their con prices are cheaper.... ::dies::

I can't remember how much the hotel was a night so I can refigure my Otakon costs for the people going. x_x Was it 169? ::headdesk:: I need to talk to Seren.... ::siiiiighs:

I wanted to have 583 dollars [round it to 590, jebus, so exact] for the convention, and I don't think I'll even have a hundred, and I don't want to go crazy and use my credit card again, cus it took my months to pay that down. MONTHS. But I might have to if I want anything. ::siiiiiighs::

And hahha, fail. I had to call off work on Friday for my graduation cus I thought it was on Saturday so I didn't take that day off. BUT, I DID try to take that day off before because AMA is this weekend. Then, I got my graduation stuff yesterday, and she's like 'See you Friday! 8D' and my reaction is:

'Okay! 8D!'
'.........'
'O_____O Friday?!'
'⌐_⌐...... well fuck...'

My manager was like '.............you can't come in early?' but I have to get my hair done, so no, I couldn't...... she totally wasn't happy. >_> And she was like 'We had a lot of poeple take off that day for graduation' and I'm like THANK GOD I'M NOT GOING TO BE THERE. They'll probably get out at 11:30 or some shit and DAMN am I happy my graduation is Friday and not Saturday. They're going to be there all fucking night. ::pats them:: Poor bastards. I didn't even want to go to my graduation, but sure as hell have to or my mother'll kick my ass. =_=

Anyway. To the bank... to smack some bitches...
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (Tap That)
I seem to have restricted my posting to every 2-3 days... Sometimes even 4-6, and it's cus I don't have anything to post... and because I've been RPing a lot and barely check my friends page on this account anymore... =_= I know. Bad.

Anyway, if I miss something important, just leave a comment on one of my random posts and I'll get a notification e-mail and will get to it sooner than if I'm flipping through my favorites page...

Aaaaand, now, some Otakon stuff. More for my benefit really, and I guess anyone who's riding with me. Seren might care, if I get some pricing stuff on the hotel wrong, but other than that, personal matters.

OTAKON [JULY 20-22, 2007] PLANS : Lots of Rambling about said plans and prices under the cut )

Cost Per Person [all prices approximate]
  • Pre-reg : unknown [Probably 40-50]
  • Gas : 6.50$
  • Hotel : 66.50$
  • Total Cost : 73$
After we get there and get pre-reg, what does everyone want to do? I had planned on lounging around like a loser Thrusday night and ordering, possibly, the only real meal we'll eat all weekend and talking about random shit. Or, we can all head to the mall [which has good, but expensive] food and eat there or drag it back with us to lounge around and talk. Either way, I'm eating something and there is lounging to do.

Drop a comment if you have issues with this patchwork plan or have suggestions or requests. Requests that don't involve my starting time...
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (youLose)
Oh. My. Mother. Fucking. God. I'm gonna KILL someone. Lj-cutted below are two AIM conversations I just had that make our talley of 9 total people go up to possibly *14* fucking people! When the HELL did this happen?! It's the day before we leave for the con. There's NO TIME FOR THIS SHIT! ::screams in a murderous rage::

Am I gonna hafta smack a bitch? No? Then ::boot to the head::!!! )

I only wish suicide was not a mortal sin, for then the lord would give me the strength to shoot myself in the head. )

!@#$!@ Mother !@#!@ stupid !@#$!@ son of a !@#!@... THIS is why I get the hotel in MY name, drive a maximum of TWO cars and have no more than EIGHT people total to deal with. Yeah, I may only have 7 in my room, but this is just TOO damn complicated! ARG! Excuse me. I'm going to go shoot myself now...
kageisuke: Mitani from Hikaru no Go (remember)
Me: Hello Mr. and Mrs. Wrist. How are you?
Wrists: ::screaming::
Me: What was that?
Wrists: ::wailing::
Me: It burns? And hurts?
Wrists: ::screeching::
Me: You were going 1983 fields per hour?
Wrists: ::whimpering::
Me: You're going to what?
Wrists: ::snarling::
Me: Kill me? Kill me?! Wait! No! :strangled to death::

Yes. Carpel Tunnel here I come! Just take me now and get it over with!


It's Prince of Tennis, ho! Dubbed! Oh NOES! )

Uh. I just watched the end to Hikaru no Go again on youtube. That place is serious crack It had the special mix to Get Over and I'm just like Kimi ga ima boku wa sasaete. Boku ga ima, kimi wo sasaeru! singing along and arg! I want to watch it again... ::deep breath:: I really loved that show. If I had to choose a show to watch over again that wasn't Bleach it would be Hikago. ::sighs:: I love shows about rivalries. Really gets my blood pumping! I guess I'm just easy that way... =_=::stares at DVD of the Hokuto Cup:: And that was has Yashiro in it... ::thinks:: resists the urge:: No, I have to write more Bleach smut other things to do... Now I really want an icon of Hikaru when he's looking at that guy [who was trying to sell fake gobans, I think at some convention] and has the PERFECT 'Am I gonna hafta SMACK A BITCH?' look. ::nods:: Can anyone say 'icon-hunt'?

And ooo... Very good and depressing as hell Hikaru no Go Music Video. If you haven't seen the show and want to, spoilers up the wazoo. If you haven't seen the show and don't care about spoilers, you'll get the general idea, but it won't have the same emotional impact. ::coughs:: There's lots of crying in it... =_= And it made me depressed... but it was so good...

Otakon. AGAIN! With updates. And semi-headaches. )
