    yeah i'm new and i'm pretty interested to meet everyone on this team.

    so i'd like to propose a gathering. of some sort. i mean we're spinners right?

    and we all know that american pens are pretty useless w/ out other pens.
    so japan town anyone?

    idk just thought it's be nice to put it out there for anyone who feels like one too.

    no hard feeling if this crashes and burns.

    you're right. if you know kinokuniya stationery store then all of that is japan town

    address to the whole center thing is
    1581 Webster Street 218 Japan Center

    I would prefer to go to the other Kinokuniya near Mitsuwa. This is pretty much exactly a continuation of the other forum...

    i was wrong it's actually 1700 Post St. you'll see the peace pagoda around this area. on either side of the pagoda are two buildings...
    so yeah... anyone who knows or can find out how to get here should contact me with the best dates possible. if not i'll probably just have to go to some other gathering...

    SF isn't exactly the best place for the gathering...

    Anyways, if any of you need help, I'd be glad to meet you sometime and help out a bit. (Cupertino Library, Cupertino Daiso only though... sad.gif)

    seeing as i'm the only one in the opposite side of the bay... i think this post was an epic fail. sorry guys i cant get all the way to cupertino.

    Or if you want, guys, we can meet at the Cupertino library, just a bit down the road. smile.gif

    Just a thought, in case it rains. wink.gif

    But Daiso would be better...since we can buy pens. laugh.gif But we'd have to go to Yogurtland to have somewhere to sit and spin. =)

    Daiso is to the right of Yogurtland. They're pretty much neighbors, you can't miss it.

    Looks to me by the looks of the posts beforehand in this thread, April 13th. No specific time. Personally, earlier or later works better for me; I'm sorta busy (sorta) from 12-3.

  55. Boshi
    Date: Fri, Apr 3 2009 04:02:58

    dam, i just realized saratoga's break is the week before cupertino. break for me is next week. looks like i cant go then...unless its the weekend before the 13th, i could do that.

  56. Archermitch
    Date: Fri, Apr 3 2009 05:02:45

    umm... that means that like 2 people are showing up... Perrako and frozenice? Maybe the date could be altered a little bit?

    well, that would work better for me.

  58. Archermitch

    So how does April 26th work? It's the Sunday after Spring Break. We'd probably meet at Yogurtland and Daiso from 12:30-5?

  59. Boshi
    Date: Tue, Apr 7 2009 03:54:19

    It's impossible for everyone to make every meeting so we just sort of have to go with what we've got. We'll have other meetings too, anyway.
