Wow! I have been so busy that I haven’t had time to keep my blog up to date… I apologize… Just wanted to share my recap of Super Fan Day at Royal T which took place on Saturday, October 24, 2009. Since I was helping out, I have a different perspective of what went down — as opposed to some of my Hello Kitty Junkies like Bellerina’s 3 Apples – Day 3 “Super Fan Day!”.
Upon arrival, this is what I saw in front of Royal T! The line was crazy loooooong! It literally went on for a block (at least)… o_O Happy to see some familiar faces in line tho! n_n
Can you spot Bellerina and Jordan!???
I spotted some more Hello Kitty Junkies! What’s up Ash!? What’s up Sarah? What’s up My!?
Bellerina and Jordan immediately had to stand in a second line for the “Kitty Mama” and Simone Legno signings… And they were not pleased! AT ALL! >_<
I was told that some of the fans were standing in lines for a total of five hours! o_O I know! That is madness, right!? But here is the flip side — the peeps from Sanrio, JapanLA, Royal T (and everybody who was helping out during the Super Fan Day) were busting their booties off! Seriously, people were running around making sure things were peaceful! Many fans who were standing in line got cute little Hello Kitty treats *for free* because the peeps over at Sanrio wanted to do something nice. There was even a raffle for a limited edition tokidoki x Hello Kitty item! Oh! And I almost forgot that the first 100 fans in line got a goody bag! I personally know some of the people who have been working 24/7 for the past few months for this massive treat for all Hello Kitty fans to enjoy! So if you see them, just smile and say “Thanks!” or “Awesome event!” I think some words of encouragement would be nice! n_~
I don’t recall much from that day — only that it was SUPER BUSY — I don’t even think all the workers had time to eat a meal! o_O I do remember meeting some awesome Hello Kitty related people! For example, I met Trevor and Dale from Loungefly and they were so cool! I really enjoy chatting it up with people who know about Hello Kitty! It’s also nice when I meet people who read my blog! @_@ I also briefly met Connie — super sweet and kinda shy — AMAZING Hello Kitty collection! @_@ And some of my *fave* Hello Kitty Junkies were present: Anjh and her fam, HKGuy, Monica, etc. etc.
I was fortunate enough to ge my Three Apples poster signed by “Kitty Mama” aka Yuko Yamaguchi (big thanks to Christian)! n_n
I finally had time to grab a bite to eat with the cute maneki neko Kitty figure… The waffles are so kittilicious!
While I was finishing up my quick bite, I spotted a blinged out Hello Kitty iPhone case… Kawaii, neh!? n_~
I was lucky enough to get another autograph and photo with “Kitty Mama” — I even confessed my love for her and Miss Kitty-chan! I also showed her my childhood photo (there was a translator there)… Hmmm… Maybe she thought I was a little crazy? @_@
I wish I had more pix to share… But I must have been busy if that’s all, huh!? Up next is the Meet-Up (Hello Kitty Junkie Trading Party)… \(n_n)/
