Singapore Anime Bloggers Gathering

Or “a bunch of nerds playing Counter-Strike” as tj han would put it. Apparently, I have been included in this otaku gathering that is pushing the limits of Singapore’s unlawful assembly laws but I’m sure the authorities will understand.

Gunslinger Girls

The location is Parklane Shopping Mall just opposite Sunshine Plaza and near Dhoby Ghaut MRT. The time is this Saturday at 7.30pm. Currently, there are about twenty people attending. I doubt the cybercafes will have enough free slots to accommodate all of us but it will work out somehow.

So if you want to catch your favourite/most hated anime bloggers and get their autographs/stab them in the eyes with a blunt pencil, then come down on Saturday.

Also, as you may or may not know, my new school year started yesterday. New school! Woot! Just five metres to the right of my old school. Woot! Tj han and LianYL have no life and visited me in school today. You can look at the pictures and learn about my perfect bowling skillz in the latest entry on RIUVA.

My New Year’s Eve Adventure

Happy New Year!

I woke up today at 1.30pm. I guess it’s not that bad considering I slept at 5am. Gao. So anyway, here’s how I spent my last day of 2006. (Yet another year closer to my eventual death.)

新年明けましておめでとうございます!

Happy new year! 新年快乐!Selamat Tahun Baru! Bonne Annee! Unccl Arj Lrne! Bet you don’t know what language the last one is in!

So anyway, it’s just about 4am here and I had been out since around 9am yesterday. I just got home about 30 minutes ago after counting down to the new year at a certain cafe in the City Hall area. My head is sort of spinning right now.

Cheers!

I need to go and drop dead ASAP, so I’ll only post a more detailed account of my New Year Eve tomorrow today after I wake up, which is probably going to take a while. x_x

So yeah, happy new year and may Haruhi bless us with another year of moé goodness, amen.

Sales don’t save you money

But they sure are cool.

KKnM is having a storewide 50% sale today and tomorrow. Of course whenever there’s a sale, you don’t actually save on anything because you end up buying things that you wouldn’t have bought otherwise. But still, 50% on all character goods and figurines is just too good to pass up.

Money

I actually managed to control myself pretty well today.

History has been rewritten once again

History is always written by the victors and Kyo-Ani has certainly been a winner. Here’s a picture from Akiba-blog.

Kanon
Taken from Akiba-blog

Yay!! The first anime adaptation of Kanon!… right?
– Asobit City

R.I.P Toei. You are not dead but you have been forgotten.

So anyway, the first Kanon DVD is out! Well, it’s not supposed to be out till 1 Jan but who cares about the official release date, right?

That said, Kyo-Ani’s Kanon is great. And it’s not because of Yuuichi. Mai has got to be the best Yukarin role ever next to Ichigo from the Onegai series.
