So in case some of you guys were unaware of what I did today let me fill you in! So Camryn aka PrincessPanda has been in my home state Massachusetts vacationing with her family. Since she and the family were coming near my area me and her planned to actually meet in real life at least once while she was here. That day was today!
We met at Starbucks around 3. Not because we both like it, but because in downtown Salem where we met up it would have been hard for her to meet me anywhere else since every other business downtown has a unique name. We should’ve had her mom catch this on video, but we made eye contact inside Starbucks and ran to each other and hugged! My friend from school was working today at that Starbucks and she was like what the hell is going on!?!? (I filled her in, that was awk haha).

After parting ways with Camryn’s bunch I showed her around the city. Everything is very close together and within walking distance so we went to Gamezone which sells old games such as Nintendo 64 ones and Sega. Then we went to Harrison’s which is a comic store! Then we found a tardis, did the Salem With Museum Tour for free and afterwards the Nightmare gallery which we got a “Children’s Discount” for which was full of cool wax figures of characters in older scary-themed movies such as Dracula and Bewitched.
After that we got some pizza at one of my favorite places in downtown called Flying Saucer. We got 1/2 and 1/2 of a small specialty pizza for only $15. Our dinner was well spent. We also drove around a bit and met up with my S/O later in the night. All in all it was an amazing day! Hopefully some of you guys know each other outside of PCB too and can meet each other too. If you have met each other already who do you know? What do you guys think about me and Cameron ACTUALLY being physically next to each other In real life!?!!?!?
I think its amazing that through technology and other stuff you can meet up and be good friends with someone not in the gaming world, but the real world.
I’m game. At some point. Preferably something I can do without having to get there using my parents, as they do not understand online shit. They’d flip the fuck out about me meeting strangers. If it’s somewhere I can get using uni friends like a convention, music festival, etc where we happen to be at the same time, then AYE!
Or if any of you brits happen to be near Aberystwyth whilst I’m still in uni, give me a shout
