Sorry this topic is late. :D I've been swamped with work since Monday, and today's the only day I got a breather. :) Anyway, let's talk about our TGIO meet up, shall we?
DETAILS:
Date:
December 8
- some people told me they can't make it on December 8 (Julie! Maria! T__T), so let's open up this date again. Any suggestions? December 1 or December 15, but please don't make it December 1 because it's going to be hard to prepare stuff for you guys. :D And I have a Christmas party that night. :D Hee.
Time:
Lunch time/after lunch.
- If it's lunchtime, we'd all be doing KKB. Or at least, contribute for the food we'd be eating. I'd treat you all...but I don't have the same salary as my boss. :P Haha. The "formal" event thing is probably going to be from two to three hours, and the rest of the time will be for bonding :) Let's not make it at night because it's hard to go home since it's almost Christmas (and there's lots of Christmas parties around).
Place:
None yet. Somewhere central?
- On December 8, Dean has an event at Fully Booked in BHS. I'll try to talk to the Read or Die people if we can get a location, but if it's going to be lunchtime, we need food. Food that a lot of people can share and is kind of cheap. :D Yellowcab Megamall anyone? :)
Volunteers to help organize this are welcome. :D
If you're feeling generous and you want to donate any prize that we can have up for raffle on that day, then please tell me as well. You could donate anything related to writing...like a blank journal, writing books, Powerbooks/National Bookstore/Fully Booked/whatever bookstore GCs, Starbucks/CBTL/Seattle's Best GCs (hey we write there :D), potato chips, chocolates, stickers, pins, or whatever. :D Anything to motivate writers. :D
Shout out? :D Let me know what you think so I can send out the invites. :)

I won't be able to make it on the 15th 'coz it's one of my best buds birthday and he's treating us out. I'm not sure where just yet, but if it's in Megamall too, I suppose I can catch up...I suppose.
Potato chips! Hee.<3 *is running on 1 Pringles tall can (6 servings O_o)/day*

I think most people would prefer the 8th, so I'm cool with that. :D It's not likely, but I'll try to see if I can fit the TGIO party into my schedule.
Yellow Cab Megamall sounds good. :D

Oh, and I just thought of it on my way home yesterday, but does NaNo Philippines have an official badge of sorts or something yet? Because if we do, I can probably have half a dozen or so pins custom-made. Uber-limited edition? Hee.<3

This is a really nice idea. =D Seriously. This could be done for the kick off party next year din, for newbies. :-?

Hey why not? We can have these raffled off din. :D Is this for free? :) If say, only six people shows up, and you have half a dozen pins, we could all have one pa. =))
I don't have any designs though, so is anyone willing to do some sort of official logo/badge for the Pinoy Wrimos?
(I keep on asking for volunteers, I know =D).

Awwww, if it's on the 8th, I won't be able to go because of a class field trip. D= December 15...I'll probably be free on that day.

Oh, I hope not! That only six of us are able to come, I mean. That'll be so sad~.
Anyway, I hope someone out there comes up with a design. *pokes our writers-also-artists--there's bound to be some here, RIGHT?!x_X*
The pins are available in two sizes, please choose one~:

*chokes* Okaaaaaaaaaay. I said I was only going to take a break for FIFTEEN MINUTES. That's almost an entire HOUR right there! *whimpers* I'm so undisciplined.>_>
I'm at 45k and it's just approaching 3pm. Plenty of time, right?
*phails*
Back to writing!^^

Not sure if I could finish it on time [the design, I mean] but I had an idea. A paper, a quill and Alibata that reads NaNoWriMo. People know what Alibata is, right? alsjd;ajd;sjslahjsjdlkshdjlsla;ajksld
I'll try to get it up in a couple of days. It's still a jumbled mess of whatnots in Photoshop.

See, I knew we have artists here. =D Yay, just post it when it's ready. If it doesn't get here in time for the TGIO, we can still use it for next year's NaNoWriMo kick-off :)

It's the kind people put on straps of their bags, you know? We don't have a design yet (and I need one by tomorrow morning at the latest if I'm going to get them made...) but the pins look like these:

Since the pins obviously won't make it...let's just reserve it for next year. Haha o diba, advance thinking? For our kick-off party. :D You guys (xcerpted, xrecent and selecetial, are joining NaNo next year...right?) Pero let's get the designs ready nalang din. =D

Hehe no don't worry, it's not your fault. :)
By the way, FINAL SCHEDULE for TGIO is posted at the events calendar. Moved the time to 3pm from 2pm to avoid the lunch crowd at Megamall.:)
See you guys tomorrow =)

Dec 6, 2007 - 23 24
Yes, I'll be most likely joining next year.
The designs are taking a long time because I'm currently doing an art project with my cousin. And it's taking much of my time painting and writing and photoshop-ing. I could get it by next week but it's too late already for the, uhm, TGIO.
Which reminds me, how much again am I supposed to bring tomorrow for the food contribution? I'll be going and my email pretty much lost the group emails Tina had been sending under a pile of junk.

That's great. =) Don't worry about it.
Food tomorrow, a max of P70. =D
