Ooh.
Even better :D

and yeah, I worked holiday hours today, so I should have enough money to finally purchase the plane tickets either by this upcoming paycheck (next Tuesday), or the one right after that. That means our convention tickets AND plane tickets will be taken care of! Soo that leaves swag money, food money and present money to save up after that. :P

I've also decided that April 2nd will be the Pennsylvania trip day, since I totally forgot that my brother's birthday is that day. It wouldn't really make sense to visit him the day before. XD I'm pretty sure he said he could pick us up from Jersey, so transportation hopefully shouldn't be a problem in that regard. I'm just not sure if he could drive us back to sssmsm's house or not.

Helvetica and I broke up, so I'm not sure if this trip is a good idea any more.

I need a lot of time to think about this.

I've been mulling this over for the past week, and I do still think that I would like to go. However, there is still no way in determining where we will stand, etc. in that short timeframe. I believe the biggest turn-off for this idea is the likely fact that I will be an emotional burden towards those who haven't even had the chance to meet me in person. If I am going to be in shambles the entire time and determine this to not be a productive use of my money, then Helvetica will just go by himself.

If you decide not to go, I suppose it's understandable. Well, whatever it is you decide to do, whether you go to PAX or not, make sure you eventually come down and hang out. A lot of us on the east coast have been excited about meeting you both. If anything, come to NJ in the summer for MWOK/Jimbo's tournament. At least then, you'd more likely be in higher spirits and it would ensure that we'd get to hang out for more than just a couple hours like I mentioned in my previous post.

Thanks :) I felt like I was being pressured to go despite however I'm feeling, and that didn't feel too great. I think I'm making reasonable progress for the time being though, and hopefully I'll be composed enough by the time the actual trip rolls around.

just booked my hotel reservations I'll be staying at the same hotel as the convention is being held so it's just a trip down some stairs to reach the convention. :lol:

my friends hit Pax last year and raved about it, and my wife really wants to check it out, not sure if it's in the budget this year though... we do a lot of traveling abroad.

If you guys do end up coming, remember this:

I've gotten my tickets for this event as well. I'll be there Friday and Saturday since I missed getting a 3-day pass. T__T

:/ I'm sorry. Well, two days is sure a lot better than none! And of course, we can hang out in Jersey afterwards.

Soo, everybody still pumped for this? Trying to save up money for spending/food besides my dance pad costs here. I might pick up a few extra shifts during this new month. It's hard for me to know about events in places I don't live, so if you guys hear of a great concert or something you'd like people (like us!) to come to, then you should post them here.

We're departing from the San Francisco Airport on
March 24th, at 12:30 A.M. (our time). We will arrive at the Boston Logan Airport at 12:35 P.M. the same day (your time).

PAX runs from March 26th - 28th. Details are still sketchy for what we'll do/where we'll stay after PAX, but going to Jersey after that seems like the best available option. Maybe we can ride back with someone who's going to PAX from Jersey?

We are leaving on April 3rd from the Boston Logan Airport April 3rd, at 2:43 P.M. We will return to the San Francisco Airport at 8:26 P.M., our time.

This is going to be sooo amazing.

Also if any of you NJ folks could offer a place to crash it would make it super easy for us to spend some time over in the NJ area.

I'm also saving as much as possible. Shit's gonna be so real.

I'm pretty hyped for this as well. Still trying to figure out my room situation amongst my friends, but I should be getting a ride up there with Sal.

It's pretty awesome you guys are coming down to Jersey as well. Finally get to see the (dead) glory that is Menlo and go to 8 on the Break~

Definitely getting hyphy for this weekend.
