Yes, I have met a few online friends face to face before, we had a party here a couple of years ago for friends online from a game I played. 25 peeps showed up from the guild I had on Lineage2 for a 3day weekend party it was a blast.
Have you ever wanted to go back to bed, even tho you know you should be up?
No, never went to Japan just to watch an Anime, but when I visited there went to a huge Anime Showing at a theater and it was really cool. Lasted 2days. They had professional cosplayers and all kinds of neat stuff.
Have you ever went to school, then left home sick because you wanted to watch Anime instead of do school work?
Yes I called a friend and acted like her boss even tho it was her day off I told her get to work in 15min or she would be fired LOL! she ran to work as fast as she could, and we all surprised her with a birthday party there :)
Have you ever not wanted to celebrate your birthday?
