First of all; HKO has made the New Installer and Patch available for Download. So 
if you still have your client, and participated in the Christmas Reunion; run the program to start the patching. Or, if you want to download it faster, use the manual patch.
If you didn’t participate in Christmas Reunion, uninstall the client and download the client again along with those who hasn’t been part of Founders’ Beta.
So far so good… except
If you live in Europe!
“Sanriotown users in Europe will not be eligible to participate in Hello Kitty Online at this time.” says the official blog.
Allow me to cry for a minute.
Ok, I’m officially scared now. I don’t get to play? Surely this can’t be the case for European Founders’ now can it? Can it?!
For once I’m looking forward to Valentines’ and now this. Oh, well.. hope is that last thing that leaves. I will still stay up through the night and try to get in like usual. You’ll hope with me, right?
*off to find a shooting star* I need to make a wish.
EDIT: Thankfully, azog (unlike me) knows how to read properly and found this in the same official blog;
“All HKO Founders from all countries are automatically eligible to play HKO and join the Happy Hearts event.”
Phew, now I’m all happy again!

I think it means that non-Founders from Europe won’t be able to play. You’re a founder, so look for this near the end “All HKO Founders from all countries are automatically eligible to play HKO and join the Happy Hearts event.” I, unfortunately, did not notice this until you pointed it out here, and then I had to go back and re-read it several times.

I agree with azog :) the sentence below the one you snipped says founders can play :)

Ooh, I didn’t even notice that. Thank you for pointing that out! That must be right ^_^ yay-ie!

Whoa, you just got lucky.
February 10th, 2009 at 1:29 am
Must have been heart pounding! I’m glad you can play!!
February 10th, 2009 at 3:17 am
Oh yay! I’m glad that you’ll be able to play. I got worried when I read ripple’s entry.
February 10th, 2009 at 4:06 am
Yeah!! Thought for a moment we would not be able to play together.
February 10th, 2009 at 4:55 am
That’s right, because this time from V day anyone can play. I think European players are going to have their own closed/open beta cycles.
CYA there!!

It’s ok, ripple, I think we all became panicky when we thought noliai couldn’t play.XD
February 11th, 2009 at 8:46 am
Oh, yeah, you were def the cause of my suddenly skyrocketing blod pressure ripple XD
Although I read it too (twice in my panic) and still missed it.
I’m so glad I get to play with you all, I’ve been missing running into you in game ^_^
