    I am now a .com

    I’ve always wanted my very own self-hosted .com blog/site and guess what? I finally did it! Yes!!! 🙂

    Since I was using weebly beforehand, it’ll take a bit of time for me to get adjusted. It’ll also take a good amount of time for me to “import” my older posts onto this new site but it’ll happen. (In the meantime, all of my older posts will still of course be available for your viewing pleasure at weebly. In fact, I’m thinking of leaving all of my older posts on weebly even upon completion of “importation” just because. And if “importation” doesn’t work to my liking, well, I’ll just create a page/post linking to all of my older posts. lol

    BTW, if you’re wondering why I’m writing import/importation with quotes around it, it’s because I have to manually import my posts onto my new .com blog. Fun, eh? Things would be a lot easier on me had I used a different host, but I loved weebly for what it was. Anyway, that was why I said it’d take some time for the importation process to go through.)

    Please be patient with me as I gradually welcome you into this new and exciting blogging journey of mine’s.

    Anime Expo 2017: All About Day 2

    NTT Solmare Corp bag

    This is a special blog entry that details my Anime Expo 2017 experience on day 2. I cover the following topics in this order:

    • Welcome to the Ballroom
    • We are X: The X Japan Documentary
    • Shall We Date? Booth Experience
    • Losing my Kabe-don Virginity to Hiroto
    • Gintama hauls

    Please feel free to scroll to the section you’re most interested in but I of course think it’d be best if you read my entire entry. 😉 Happy reading!

    I had purchased a 4 day pass for Anime Expo 2017 with the determination to attend AX all four days. That didn’t happen, unfortunately since I didn’t attend day 1. And while this may come across as a bummer, it was actually a good thing I wasn’t present for day 1 since day 1 was only about lines, lines and well, more lines. My friend/coworker was actually waiting in line for four hours just to obtain her badge. Can we say what!?! Yeah, so not cool. So, I’m glad I wasn’t there on day 1 to be part of that hot mess.

    Anyway, enough on day 1. Let’s talk about something more exciting: day 2 at AX 2017. Unlike my first time experience with AX back in 2015, I came quite prepared to conquer this time around. I actually knew what I wanted to do. (That AX 2017 app was helpful in planning out my own AX agenda.) And I got to do what I wanted to do. For the most part anyway.

    The first thing I did after getting my badge and going through an entrance line was head over to the main events hall. Didn’t know where the heck it was but I somehow figured it out with the map, thankfully.
