Waffle So Yummy (ALA '14 Day 2)

Woke up then texting Janessa to tell her to join me for Waffle Wake Up on 18th floor. But she told me that she didn't want to leave Emily alone. I suddenly have the flashback to The Pickup Artist where Mystery told guy to bring the whole group instead of just dismissing it. Thus, I told Janessa to bring up Emily since I'm willing to pay for her as well.



On the way to 18th floor.




Waiting in line with Janessa and Emily.



Hmm, how tasty.

Emily soon left because someone need her help. So it was just me, Janessa, and this other guy. Since I was willing to pay for Emily, I opted to pay for this other guy.



That's my boss, Richie. He's good people.



Janessa and this other guy named Jerry.



Richie's super fancy camera.

We had a nice meal but all of us soon left the cafe. It was the only time that I get to hang out with Janessa but better short than never.



Nope, not time to cosplaying yet.



"MG, I'm so tired."



OTL because of no balcony, thus no good viewing of pool deck.



I don't know why but this picture made me lulz for some reason.




Putting on make up on Mark.



Flower Chucker..... let's do it!



I'm in Ryan's Con Lounge now. I like how he's always happy to see me.



Richie is so busy guy, lol.



Cooking some foods up.



Hmm, tasty. I think I had couple of helping of this one. Very filling compared to Denny's.



Very lively pool deck.



As you can see, it's pretty busy.



The lobby sure is lively as well.



That's Heaven in Rei swimsuit. Eurobeat Kasumi is talking to her about the poses.

I met up with Hidey around this time but she wasn't in good mood, due to the allergic reaction.




Don't Heaven look so stunning?



Bubblegum Prince!



Epic mermaid cosplayer.



Following Heaven and Hidey.




Back to Ryan's Con Lounge.



Foods!

Ryan gave me the discount so I'm happy about it. That means that I can eat as much as I want. I honestly enjoy the foods in his Con Lounge than the official con lounge, which tends to be full of sugary stuff.



"You guys are more than welcome to relaxing here."



Richie gave me the chocolate but it doesn't taste really good. :( Or I have very unrefined palate.



Talking to Richie about the con circuit.



Ryan, you the man!



Richie, you the man!



Living dangerously, yo.



Pretty awesome.



Chilling with couple of cool people on balcony.



Back to the pool deck.




Neon Genesis Evangelion!



Chilling in front of Satsuki from Kill la Kill.



Hard to believe that the entire hotel is sold out for this con.



Satsuki, would you accept the rose from me?



Met up with Laura briefly. Was good to see her.



The lobby is so full now. Need to make it even more bigger.



Met up with Gabe. It was so awesome to hang out with him.



That's how I'm feeling right now.



Taking a selfie with Kamina.



Chilling with cosplayers on pool deck while texting Sara.



Epic Tiger and Bunny cosplayers!




Rin from Blue Exorcist, which is one of my favorite manga.

Eventually, I went back to the room to change the clothes then texting Sara.

She told me that she's sitting next to Starbucks so I went down to the lobby.



That's Kat and McKenzie.



Sara and Drew.



Me with Sara.



Playing Cards Against Humanity with those awesome folks.



Attack on Titan wallet, lol.



Kat with her plushie.



Hitting up Sara's room, which is much smaller than mine. And...... more people are staying in Sara's room. About 8 people, I think.



Sara is trying to wake up Dorie.



Can't really blame Kat for being super wiped out.



Talking about what pizza to order. I pitch in my share.

But I need to get the battery pack so I went back to my room to get it. When I was on my way to Sara's room, Mark and Rita grabbed me and push me into the room party. I went WTF the whole time, lol. It was so unreal.



Matt and Black Ash. Matt spray the liquor into my mouth and I spill some on my shirt because I didn't expect it at all. Then all of a sudden, Nadine was very huggy with me. I feel like I'm in Bizarro world, lol.



Back to Sara's room.



"I think I'm a-okay now."




Sara is cleaning the paint off Nick's skin. I asked for the wipe to clean off the liquor on my shirt so I got one. I don't want to walk around and reeking of liquor.



On the way to Sara's panel about why your favorite anime sucks.



I was so surprised to see that this panel is nearly full.



The panelists.



The pizza!



"Well, I think this anime sucks because of............"



McKenzie served as my translator for this panel so I'm very grateful for that.



Me with Kat.



"Why are you calling me Sheldon?!?"



The panel was very well received so it was awesome.

Soon, we all left the room and just hanging out on Ballroom Floor.



Me with Jose. But he said that he's drunk so he's likely won't remember this picture.



"Guys, let's go to Denny's at 3 am."

"Seriously? That's like...... couple of hours from now."



Chatting with McKenzie. Ever so often, I had to plug my battery pack to her phone so it doesn't get low on battery.



"Let's invent a silly game."



Fiona and Lia.



Completely legit.



Fem Jack Skellington.



We're feeding Iron Patriot with our pizza. We only did it because he's considered to be poor man's War Machine. It was all in good fun.



Yep, Iron Patriot. But he kept switching poses, which made it difficult to get clear picture of him. Still, he's super cool cat.



I see Sarah and Dana with couple of guys.



Pretty much, lol. Just relaxing and having a good conversation with quality people.



I'm now having doubt about Denny's at 3 am.



Yep, Denny's is no go, due to the majority of people passed out in Sara's room plus they need to clean up since they're checking out at noon.



Hands down, this is so vintage MG.



Tired people FTW.



Me with Sara.



Me with McKenzie.

I soon bid them farewell. I thanked them for wonderful night.



Back to my room. I don't feel tired and I want to do something. So I texted my boss, Richie, to see what is he up to.

He told me to meet him in Ryan's room.



Soooooo foggy. This is about 3 am or so.



Taking a picture for Twitter.



Midnight snack.



Lol, my boss love his phone a lot.



Mark really want to do something at this time of the night. I was like....... dude, ain't nobody gonna do something at 4 am, lol.

But if he really want to have absolute 24 hours con, he should consider A-kon and Dragon*Con.



Getting ready to hit the hay.
