It has been sometime since I did a Chinatown Meet-up. Will anyone be interested in spending a casual weekend day roaming the shops of Chinatown, dining in Chinatown, and spending time with other individuals?

Restaurants. Stores where they sell fake yugioh cards. You know, China stuff. I went to a really nice (and cheap) cafe with some friends once.

The point in going is to spend some social time with others, and explore another culture from a perspective of having been tainted by American culture.

Eat some Chinese food. It'll be more authentic than the stuff you usually have. Get some Chinese candy or other weird Chinese products. It's just a Chinese shopping center really.

We usually have a good time. Like last time we ended up having a large snowball fight... Since there is some interest I will look into setting a date in September.

Ironically, I can go BECAUSE school is starting. I get a free pass, and there's a train to Chinatown a few blocks away. Mind if I bring college friends?

Friends are welcome we tend to meet-up then break up into smaller groups. We tend to go and have a DimSum as a large group though. I will find out a possible date in the near future.

That is exactly my story,

I'm down for this meet up, as long as I'm not in class, which shouldn't be the case if it's a weekend.

If we are to do it in Sept it will have to be after Sept 12th because my weekends are booked with other plans. Any preferences?

I would be up for it provided I'm not working that night or subbing during the day. Since subbing jobs are hard to come by the day time is easiest. It would also depend on what I can budget for.
