The DIMPLES/ SOSers invaded Oahu from 9/12 - 9/20 2006. How Hawaii survived is still a mystery. ;)
This is where we resided: http://www.waikiki-banyan.com/
Here are some memorable quotes from the old thread:
Who the f*** is Dustin Watchman? LOL!
That's Jewel and me this morning at my very first trading card show, spreading the Dustin love and explain to the dealers whose autographed trading cards there are selling!!! :lol:
-----------------------------
And we're in Oahu and met the man twice already!!! First time was on Wednesday night, our 2nd day here in Honolulu. Dustin called Jewel's cell phone and came by later that night to our hotel. He's such a sweetie (not that we didn't know that before ;)). We only talked and he couldn't stay very long but it was so nice to finally meet him in person. (and he gives the best hugs ever!!!)
Last night we had our BBQ at our hotel from about 6 to 10:30 (unfortuately the pool and the BBQ area closed at 9, so we had to go upstairs to our hotel room). It was a very relaxing evening and Dustin is so much fun to talk to. He's a big tease, tho... he constantly teased me about my Ian obsession and complained about being "only my 2nd choice" and he teased Julie about her sunburn. But he's a total sweetheart at the same time.
We played a little trick on poor Myha... or... okay... I did... I told her that Dustin wouldn't be able to make it to the BBQ because he had study but that I would call her later on and then, of course, I had Dustin call her. He said she didn't scream but I'm not sure if I should really believe him.
When we were back up in our room, Dustin signed a couple of things for us... pictures... DVDs... banners.... I think he really enjoyed it and kept asking for more things to sign.
And of course we took pictures. :D (the first time we didn't take any)
Enjoy...
