[Event] Hetalia NYC Gathering

[haruhichanx32.livejournal.com]

 Hello everyone! I'd like to inform you about a gathering taking place on May 30th in New York City!
This Hetalia gathering will take place on Sunday, May 30th.  We will be meeting at Union Square, across the street from Barnes & Noble, Manhattan. The exact street is 33 east 17th Street.

The creators of the event thought it would be a good idea to post this in the community, so I did it for them. This event originated on facebook. If you don't have an account on facebook, just tell me you're coming and I'll add you to the official list. You can see the list below.
If you would like to view the event on facebook, look here. (You need a facebook account to look at it)

.::INFO::.
A small Hetalia gathering in NYC! We, roleplayers of Facebook or other people, meet in Manhattan and see each other in person! You can also cosplay as your favorite Hetalia character, or just be yourself! ^^

Anybody who lives in or near NYC are welcome to join the gathering! If you, coincidentally, are going to NYC around that time, then don't be shy and join the sights of NYC, Hetalia style!

The date of the gathering might change depending on how bad the weather is. If there's going to be any light rain, bring an umbrella!

Our schedule might be a world lunch outing at Union Square Park, a trip to Chelsea Piers and Battery Park for a photoshoot and mini skits.

Everybody must wear comfortable shoes because we might have to walk around alot. Everybody who is cosplaying will be bringing food from around the world and non-cosplayers will join and eat, or buy some lunch at Kinokuniya Cafe. I also advise to bring some money with you and a fully charged camera and spare batteries. Also, bring your metrocard just in case if we are taking the subway.

FYI, we cannot go the UN building because they have VERY HIGH securities there >.>

(By the way, there can be doubles of characters, even triples. Look how many Lithuania's we have. xD)

I'm on facebook, but for this sort of thing I prefer using LJ.

Anyway, I might be interested in coming as Belarus! I'll have to see what my schedule is looking like.

[haruhichanx32.livejournal.com]

Okay! Just tell me when you know you can go so I can add you to the list! :D

[ginnyseta.livejournal.com]

jamminbison and I are going to both attend! While we have the regular outfits, for comfort's sake, I will do a casual Belarus and she will do a casual America. See ya there!

[lysanderpuck.livejournal.com]

I MIGHT be able to pop over as Sealand. Dunno if it'll be done by then, but hopefully. Keep me posted?

[haruhichanx32.livejournal.com]

Sure thing! :D
Even if you don't cosplay, you're welcome to come anyways! If you're able to come let me know~ ^^

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Hello there! :3 I'm actually one of the hosts of the event, so if anyone else has anymore questions, please let me know!

Note: I'm going as Punk!England~

[haruhichanx32.livejournal.com]

Yay, thank you for commenting! :3
I leave everyones questions to you! xD

[antiravine.livejournal.com]

Oh! I was just thinking earlier today that I wanted to go cosplay in NYC sometime soon~ I may be able to show up as France or Austria, and possibly bring along someone else.. Though I don't know who they'd be cosplaying as of yet.

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

If you could cosplay as France, that would be AWESOME. We /had/ almost all of the Axis + Allies, but we lost America, and we're still missing a France. D:

[antiravine.livejournal.com]

Alright! I would be glad to be France, he's so fun to cosplay fufu. I'll be sure to clear my schedule for this! ♥
Is there anyone else you need so I can suggest someone to my friend?

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Well, it would be great if you could get your friend to be America. We've actually lost a lot of people, but right now, we really need an America.

[antiravine.livejournal.com]

I'll have to ask my friend!
We may switch cosplays in that case and I would be America, as he's one of my favorite cosplays that I have.

Not that it much matters who's who ffff..

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Haha! You're right~ Well, just let us know who you can get!

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

We do need a Taiwan cosplayer for our gathering.

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

But America is more important, am I right?

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

True. It would also be awesome if we have Russia too

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Wait, I thought we had a Russia already? Are you thinking of Prussia?

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

No, we don't have Russia or Prussia.

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Dude, look at our list again. WE HAVE A RUSSIA, BUT WE DON'T HAVE A PRUSSIA.

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

Aw man! Now I saw! My sickness is getting to me! XP

Yeah, we need a Prussia and America. Do we have S. Italy?

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

PFFT NOT AS BAD AS ME SISTER...

No, we don't have a S. Italy, nor do we have a Spain...

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

I think we also need Switzerland and Liechtenstein. But, Prussia is one of the most important country that we need for this event! XP

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Yes, we need a Prussia!

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

Any other countries that we need?

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Hm... can they cosplay as any of the Nordics? We really need any of them, whether it be Iceland, Finland, Sweden, Norway, or Denmark.

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

Hello! This is the host of the Hetalia NYC Gathering on Facebook, Lee Hong-Kong Wang! If anybody would like to ask me any questions, please don't be afraid to ask ^^

[jamminbison.livejournal.com]

This looks like a heck of a lot of fun

I MIGHT be able to come up as America, but we shall see as the month goes on and NJ Transit stops hiking fares

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Okay, please let us know if you can make it or not!

[onmyoji-youkai.livejournal.com]

*lives in NYC*

Sounds interesting, i would love to go but i'll think about it and see if i have any money for the trip.

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Okay, please let us know if you can make it or not!

Re: GEFHRGFNF!

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Okay, that sounds good~

Arghh me hearties

[wingting980.livejournal.com]

Ohh snapp~ I will try to sail by this meeting and steal some new colonies~

~<3 Pirate U.K.

Re: Arghh me hearties

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Why, hello there Pirate!UK~ Of course you can stop by~

Re: Arghh me hearties

[wingting980.livejournal.com]

ahaha~ :] be a pleasure to~ <3

[kinirokitsune.livejournal.com]

I have face book but I prefer LJ. I'm sure I'll be able to make it to the meet.

I'll be cosplaying. Not sure which but it will either be Maid!Hungary or I might try Nyotalia!Spain. [I'll have an excuse to make somewhat non alcoholic Sangria and a few other Hispanic plates >D]

[meimeitaiwan.livejournal.com]

Either one of your cosplays is good because we don't have Hungary or Spain cosplayers on our list. ^^ Can you post up your comment on our event so we know what your Facebook account name is?

[kirakira-kirimi.livejournal.com]

Maybe, I hope.

If I do, I'll come as China or mafia!S.Italy, depending on whether or not my S.Italy wig comes in on time.

[hungary-hetalia.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh just let us know soon, okay?
