Do not be fooled by the post title. It was not a hassle-free day but it was definitely a happy ingress day.

I was on time and setup was quick. I was a bit indecisive about some details but I think everything worked out well. A few vendors came to set up but it’s ok. Tomorrow will be a bit chaotic and rushed but let’s not worry about that yet.

Acrylics arrived. Standees are ready. Stickers are gorgeous. Stamp rally is exciting. YEY!

The layout is very spacious and not too cramped. Few food vendors but I think each one is good so it should be ok.

The downside? SUPER INIT. And I lacked sleep.

Ordered Gang Gang Chicken for my lunch which was willing and surprisingly spicier than I expected. But I really love the crunch of their breading.

Dinner was so, so, sooo good at Dulce Desserts. Kuya had the Beef Short Ribs with Kimchi Rice. I ordered the Fish and Chips. The fish was juicy and cooked properly. Breading was separating from the fish but it’s ok. The fries were crisp and tasty. My favorite part of the meal? The aioli dip. Then, Tiramu-choux. Yum. Must go back to try the French Onion Soup and other stuff.

I was craving milk tea so we dropped by Chachago. Pearl Milk Tea with a bit of Cream Cheese for me. Zero sugar.

Ended up buying dried fish. I’m excited to eat that.

Meanwhile, rushing to finish this on time and to journal. Because yey! Mini journal and stamps are finally here. NICE. NICE. NICE.

Ok, enough of this. See you tomorrow, DAY 1 OF KAIJU CON. Let’s wish for good weather. High turnout and high sales. And a fun experience for all. See yah.
