Daily Life – 27.04-27.05.2011

Phew… The past month has been so slow yet so long… School is such a strain and it’s holding me back from blogging… I received my half-yearly report to the dissatisfaction of my parents, (not surprised) and I really do need to pick my game for a good education if I’m to get anywhere in my future life right? But that hasn’t really stopped me from going out and about recently, which you will find, is mostly about food. =P

(What you see above is a Tuna Tataki dish from “Kushiyaki Azuma” a fairly classy Japanese Restaurant tucked away in “Regents Place” behind the George Street Cinemas in Sydney.)

Daily Life – 15.04.2011

Wow… It’s been a month since I last made a post… The past few weeks have been loaded with exams (which despite more than usual study, has produced results that aren’t what I could/should be getting…) but now that they’re over, it’s time for the Autumn break! (Which, I’m already quickly approaching the half-way of…)

Greenhouse by Joost – 13.03.2011

So, yesterday, my sister and I payed a visit to the temporary restaurant “Greenhouse by Joost”, a restaurant in Perth that focuses on sustainability, and minimizing waste. They’re currently doing a world tour, the first stop of which, was Sydney.

General Entry – 11.03.2011

Haven’t been able to blog all that much, being very busy with school work, namely an English essay, and a lot of maths being dumped on me by my most favourite maths teacher. =D
I have a few posts in the line, but when they’ll be published is well… When I’m able to get around to them…

Yay! My local Japanese book store had Mizuki Nana’s biography “Shin Ai” in stock. 20% off too, so it only cost me $28. It’s a shame that I’m Japanese illiterate. Otherwise, I’d probably be up all night reading it… But I am watching coverage of the 8.8 magnitude earthquake that hit Japan ealier today… That’s some scary stuff.

At this moment, 5 hours after the quake, the toll is only 39. That number can only rise.
Hope everything works out for all those effected directly and indirectly.

Daily Life – 21.01-09.02.2011

Busy busy busy weeks… The last few days of January was a busy time for me, and the start of school marking the beginning of what is going to be an incredibly busy and stressful year.

Daily Life – 07.11 – 04.12.2010

November was an unusually dry month… and by dry, I mean, lacking interesting content rather than unseasonal… In fact, we’ve actually had quite a bit of rain… But yeah, so this goanna water dragon payed a visit to our school earlier in November…

Spring Holidays – 20.09-08.10.2010

I’m somewhat depressed… The holidays are almost over, and come Monday, I should probably get down to do some serious business… In terms of study… But I won’t whinge about that now… This post is about reminiscing the Spring Holidays of 2010 in photo form, which has been jam-packed with social outings and stuff. One of the best holidays ever. =D

Cosplayers of the Animania Festival – Sydney – September 2010

Okay, as promised, I’ve dumped a rather large gallery of the cosplayers for Animania 2010 in Sydney here, for you to enjoy.

I was truly gobsmacked by the amount of cosplayers and their performances this year, and just some of the elaboration of the costumes was amazing. How do you people have the time to do all that?!

Animania Festival – Sydney – September 2010

So, Animania is one of three major Anime, Manga and Japanese Culture Conventions/Festivals/whateveryouwanttocallthem, with SMASH! and Supanova being the other two. Animania spans over two days at the Sydney Technology Park, this time on September 11 and 12, and also earlier in the year, in March.

So, the following photos should basically give you an idea as to what the convention was like. If you’re looking for photos of the cosplayers at the event, they’re on this separate post.

My Birthday! – 31.08.2010

Okay, so this time, it was time to celebrate my birthday!

Shannon gave me this little Dinosaur plush. I decided that it’d be a she, and her name is Misuzu, named after the main character from the anime “Air”, where she believes that dinosaurs made the noise “gao*
