Midwest Meetup - January

[Jojee]

Winter Midwest Meetup 2009

Who: YOU!

What: Midwest Meetup!

Where: Chicago

When: Friday, January 9th - Sunday, January 11th, 2009

Why: Because awesomeness~!

I'm not going to be quite so democratic because I have a lot planned out already, and a mini-meetup will likely happen with or without you guys. xD Raistlin, Lekana if she can get enough money [she better!], and <i>possibly</i> (but I'd say not likely but I got the "I'll try" u_u) krissy will be visiting me and staying at my place in Champaign (about 2 hours away from Chicago, I think) for a bit this January. Not sure if I'd house anyone else for this as I don't know most of you quite well enough, but we'd probably like to take a trip to Chicago and visit the big city sometime in there, so it'd be awesome if we could arrange a meet-up with the rest of you online people also!

Things to Do
Sushi buffet!
Chinatown!
Nightlife!
You guys decide!

I've already discussed this a bit at my board, but there's a lot of the same people so I'll just keep track of the progress in both boards and see if there's enough people that want to go. If enough people are interested, we'll try to make this a sure thing. I know this is still really early to be thinking about this, but just in case you're gonna make plans for winter break, keep it in mind? :mog: You don't have to make any commitments, but don't sign up if you're 99% sure you won't make it either~

Jojee will be leaving Saturday afternoon/night because she has to take a bus to New Orleans at 6AM the next morning ^-^.
I suggest people plan on arriving as early as they can on Friday.

Nightlife? Lekana Banana's only 18! Remember the last time we tried it?

I'm very likely able to go. So if you want to see PG, come along. If you don't....um

MILLS DAY 2009!

[Markus. D]

How cheap are flights to Chicago from Australia these days :3?

Super cheap. You should come!

[Akaria]

Put Akaria and Ouch! down as interested.

[Raistlin]

As an added incentive, this will probably be your only shot of ever meeting me.

As an added disincentive, you will be meeting me.

[Ouch!]

Put Akaria and Ouch! down as interested.

:bigsmile:

Damn you. You don't know what happened the last time I went to one of these. I swear, if another one of my friends at college asks me, "Why are you sucking off a chocolate covered banana?" I'm going to kill someone.

I think my winter break is from December 18 to January 18. I'll probably be there.

[bipper]

Hrm, well I might bail out on new york, but I could prolly do this one. Chicago will never be the same... again.

Can we get a better hotel this time? Same thing as before, I will drive, if anyone wants to car pool, let me know. That gives me more motive to get my together and such. Starting point, South West Minneapolis.

oh, smurf, raist is going. :biggrin:

[Dolentrean]

If I can go I will, chances are against it... but Hell if I can I will.

[Freya]

I'll most likely be going. Most money is getting sucked dry by blizzcon so I just have to save up after that. My apartment plans are kinda falling through now so I don't have to worry about that till next semester. SOOOOOOOOOo Yes, this may be the one and only time to see Lekana as well

[CimminyCricket]

You guys pick the worst dates for me to be able to go. Stop your foolishness.

[Jojee]

:</>D Yay Akaria, you better make it out this time.~ You can carpool with bipper I think o_o

Hahah Zach, it'll be like the last meetup... only better. ^_^

Do it Dolen, do it~ And yay bipper! It'll be like the last, last meetup. Only better!

Cim, skip whatever you're gonna be doing and visit us instead.

Oh and Peeg, so we might not get to go clubbing, but can we at least get drunk legitimately instead of everyone falling asleep this time?

[Raistlin]

Oh and Peeg, so we might not get to go clubbing, but can we at least get drunk legitimately instead of everyone falling asleep this time?

Only if you go drink-for-drink with me and pg.

[bipper]

Hex yeah to bettah, its like buttah.

anyways, I think both Ak and cim live close to me, and cim would be right on the way. So yeah, you can all carpool if you want ~ I will cover the gas.

My wagon holds 5, prolly four comfortably, 5 if we eoff it and someone is in the way back area on sleeping bags and what not.

So whatever works. lemmie know.
