Yup, buses take forever. I've taken a bus from my home to the Glendale Galeria. It took 40 minutes. Then I realized I could have walked there in half the time. Especially since the buses out here have to stop every 3 feet.
wow haha I use the bus to go everywhere aint that bad >>; but w/e XP
I suggest we have a AP Member dinner… like everyone meet up on Friday & we all go eat somewhere. Since I'm not familiar with LA, you guys can make suggestions as to where...

I am so dropping by your sister's booth ocean. Phoenix Wright ftw.
Hmm….I can't do Day 4 for dinner. That's my friend's 22nd birthday and we're having dinner.
Day 0- Day 3 would be good for me. Who's gonna be there on Day 0?
Hey, that sounds like fun. Too bad I dont' think I can attend the dinner.
Bee's Wing, did you get my PM?
lol, I guess three people are in so far… Toshiya, Bee's Wing & myself. I'll probably be there the entire weekend.
Sweet.
And yes Rootbeer, I got your PM just now >_<. Dun worry, it's all covered pat
Hey Bushi, I practically live in Long Beach. You wanna go eat some kickass BBQ? There's a place not to far from the convention center called Lucille's. It's the best damn food for miles, imho.
Or, we could go to Aladdin's. It's a hookah bar :D.
OR! You could tell me what type of food you are most interested in having, and I'll probablu know a place. Gotta love having a college minutes away from everything there is to do in Long Beach!
Looks like Toei Animation is having an interesting "One Piece" promotion at their booth: http://www.toei-anim.com.
I'm in for dinner, just let me know when and where!
I have to admit, I'm not really fond of Lucille's because I'm not crazy about anything that's smoke flavored. It's not bad, though. I do love the their jar glasses XD And the biscuits.
But I give the reins to Bee's Wing for being the Long Beach native. I'm an OC person, I don't know the LBC too well.
Lookks like I'm going for at least just two days again, like I originally expected. My friend and I were kind of pressured into looking for hotels at the last minute by another friend, so it's no big deal. If I go for one day it'll be Sunday, but if it's two days it'll be Saturday and Sunday.
So when exactly is this dinner gonna happen anyway?
Yes, Lucille's biscuits melt in your mouth. Apple Butter ftw! I'm up for having dinner on Day 0 or Day 1. Those two days would really be the best for me, as I'll still have lots of money to buy food with XD.
Hmm. There's also Bubba Gump Shrimp. The service wasn't stellar, but when I went there was like, no one there. It's next to the Aquarium of the Pacific, which is where I went to prom. It's pretty cheap if you want to do something non-expo related on Day 0/Day 4.
And yes, there is a Hooters in LB.
There's an Irish Pub that serves food in Seal Beach. It's not a far cry from Long Beach, and it would certainly fit our mood. XD.
Or if you want fine dining in a lighthouse that overlooks the Queen Mary (I also had dinner there before Prom, lol) I reccomend Parker's Lighthouse. It's a tad bit expensive, but if we all share appetizers we can keep the bill under eighty bucks.
I will eat anything and everything… Even Shawarma King.
btw, hookah bar sounds awesome... I haven't been to one in forever
What kind of food do they serve in hooka bars? XD
I love good Irish pubs. But I will eat just about anything and everything too.
Depends on what region of the Middle East the owner is from. I think Aladdin's serves Arabic food. I know of one in Westminster up by UCLA that serves Persian food, but that's two hours out XD.
So the general consenus is a hookah bar? I trust that everyone planning to attend the dinner on Day 0 is over 18.
Or at least has a good ID if you catch my drift.
Not that I endorse illegal activity in any form >_>.
I haven't seen any kind of consensus yet, just bushido and I saying we'll eat anything. XD What is your preference, Wing of the Bee?
Mediterranean sounds nice too… but I really don't care. Sushi or thai... Italian or Mexican... BBQ or hookah... and so on.
My preference would be BBQ. That or the pub in Seal Beach. It's on Main Street. After pubbing, we could walk down the street and have us some ice cream and chase each other around on the beach.
Maybe we can bury Bushi in the sand. >_>.
I vote Henessy's, the Irish pub.
I vote pub too as long as we don't have under 21s or they don't care about under 21's there just to eat. I have been to that Hennesy's before. BBQ second. Even though I'm not a big smoked fan it's a fun place.
Man, if you go down to San Diego, I would take you to The Field, best Irish pub I've ever been too in SoCal.
BTW here are the websites for the two places, so you can see what their menus are like and stuff
http://www.hennesseystavern.com/
http://www.lucillesbbq.com/
At Henessy's, even though it's partially a pub so long as you sit anywhere but the bar you can be under 21.
Really? I am only 19 :< sorry haha but I am up for anywhere as Long it aint that expensive haha.
Henessy's is rather affordable, and it's a lot of fun. Trust me, even if you can't sit at the bar, you can still sit inside of the pub. Just at a dinner table, lol. Same thing, really.
The pub idea sounds EXCELLENT! I'm all for this Hennesy's place… XD
Yay! I want to chew on Bamboo for some reason XD and Bushi Get on Aim and or MSN :<
If anyone is interested, Expo announced it's keynote speakers a couple days ago.
Also, what time do we want to have dinner at?
I would assume like 6pm-ish… maybe? I have to see how long we'll be at our booth.
I was thinking we'd have dinner on Day 0. Are you working the booth that day too?
Well, I guess it makes sense. Setting up and all. 6-ish does sound good. We could play on the beach afterwards. The sun doesn't usually fully set until about 8:30 come July.
Which is Day 0 again? Thurs or Fri?
Which is Day 0 again? Thurs or Fri?
Day 0 is on Thursday <3 zomg 8 more days!! -spaszzes-
I'm not even sure if I'll be there on Thursday… >_<
Bee's Wing, did you get my e-mail about picking me up?
If you're not there, we can do Friday instead. Or both. :P
Ya, I got your e-mail Rootbeer. I'm not sure when we're gonna pick you up. It'll probably be around ten though. Plan for ten, and if something changes I'll let you know.
Hmm. We can do Friday. But I like Thursday better, just because I won't have a small army of friends with me on Thursday >_<. But both could work just as well.
I just found out we're leaving either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. So I'll probably be there on Thursday… let's keep our fingers crossed.
:O I think you might be here thursday afternoon or night :< still hope ya make it and we still gonna chill even if you come Friday 3am XD
btw should we all exchange numbers? via PM XP
oh and… 7 more days!
Hey guys, I just found out that I probably couldn't make it on day 0, my mom wants me to pick her up from the airport in the evening on Thursday around 6:30. :P
Friday, it is! XD
Alright then. Friday it shall be.
I can escape my army of friends. I'll just sneak off and say that I had to go do something >_>. So if someone would like to drive me to Henessy's I can give directions and we can all tailgate eachother. AP Forums procession on the freeway! Whoo-hoo!
I call shot gun! =P
Bushido! You forgot Friday is the SKIN Concert between 2-5pm TT are we going after it?
Why the hell is is between 2pm-5pm? :wassat:
Hey, I just checked the schedule for June 1st, and it looks like they're gonna be showing the seventh "One Piece" movie.
Why the hell is is between 2pm-5pm? :wassat:
around 2 is the line to see skin and they start at 3:30pm and end at 4:30pm
around 2 is the line to see skin and they start at 3:30pm and end at 4:30pm
Regardless, this is set for dinner, right? That time frame shouldn't interfere with dinner plans… amirite?
Bee's Wing, you can bring your army of friends with you if you like ^^
We can go to dinner 6 or 7 so not to interfere with the concert.
Hey, I just checked the schedule for June 1st, and it looks like they're gonna be showing the seventh "One Piece" movie.
That would be July 1st XD Hm, the seventh movie sucks but I never did finish watching it, it would be cool to see it on the big screen I guess.
yea it wont :3 Bushi We can gonna try and mosh XD or w/e yell like little school girls XP and than go eat :3
Oh I might bring a friend of mines if she wants to come. haha
Alright….but don't say I didn't warn you guys. I don't think too many will come to the dinner though, as transporatation is limited. Everyone I know is staying either at home/at a friend's since Expo is so close to us this year.
Hey hey! I have an idea! After dinner, we can walk down the street to get Coldstone's Ice Cream, or run around on the beach like little kids. I vote both XD.
I agree with that suggestion.
