,

My first anime convention ever… and I kinda realised I’m a closet otaku and not one of those oh-so hyper and proud anime fans in cosplay XD

Well, I’m proud of being an anime fan/otaku but… I don’t like stalking people with all knowledge about a certain anime show aka I only talk about it if asked…

I was kinda bored… bored with so many cosplayers around me and people talking about everything anime and nothing else. I was supposed to feel at home… Oh well… I did enjoy the dealer room! Hehe, but hated the long row in front of it… My poor feet… Didn’t know it was so hard to shop… lol. I love internet for those purposes. <3

Anyway, this is what I got from the dealer room:

Zombie-Loan and Code Geass Artbook (Graphics Zero)

Code Geass poster

Poster from the Code Geass artbook; gonna hang it up above my bed :3

Kuroneko Hat

Genshiken 8 + 9

Trading Figures

Fate/Stay Night (I got Archer :3)
Code Geass (Suzaku)
Genshiken (Saki-chan and Kousaka-kun)
Melty Blood (Sion Eltnam Atlasia)

It’s hard putting them together, I might break them -_-’

EDIT: maybe it was just me being hikikomori-ish?

First of all, Merii Kurisumasu and…

I came back from Den Haag this morning. So tired ~.~

I bought most of the stuff on my list…

• a coat
• an overcoat - it was kinda expensive (not on the list xD)
• a scarf – it’s so soft whaaaaaaaaaaaaaeeeeeeee
• optical mouse for my notebook - it’s so small xD I’ll have to get used to it
• a cardigan

Oh yeah, my job interview went fantastic… till they told me something nobody knew. We, me and another classmate, were told that the law court needed TWO trainees/interns. So we both sent a letter of application. But due to some circumstances they could only take one of us. *tear tear* They said they’d call us. *heart attack* They called me exactly in 15 minutes after my job interview, and told me that I was accepted. *jumps around* I’ll earn € 200 a month, and I’ve a free day every Monday! XD

HOLIDAYS! xD

Okay, that was totally random.

There’s something I’ve to finish for school in the holidays. I have to make this brochure for Public Press&Public Relation. It can be about a company or a product, real or fake. I’m making one about a freelance web developer: ENKYORI (.org). Hehe, there’s truth somewhere in there. xD
Now, I only have to create mini website templates in Photoshop for the ‘portfolio’ part. Even though we are allowed to use images from the internet, it doesn’t feel right to make screenshots of other websites and paste them in the brochure as my ‘own’ work.
I’ve also been looking for special A4-format paper for the brochure. I want it to be smooth just like photo paper. But it has to be thinner than photo paper. :S Can’t find it! :@ WHAAAAAAA

I want manga! T_______T I wanted to order some manga for Christmas but in January/February new volumes will release … :S So it’s best to wait ;_;

Wishlist manga:

• D.Gray-Man ; vol 1, 2, etc.
• Kanna ; vol 2, vol 3 (1 feb 2008)
• Blood + ; vol 1 (16 jan 2008)
• Kami Kaze ; vol 4
• Genshiken ; vol 2

There’s something else I really really want! If I don’t get it, I’ll die!

It’s the chibi D.gray-Man 2008 calendar!

I tried to order it through someone on a Dutch forum. He lives in Japan. But he said it’s sold out! No wonder it’s sold out! Who can resist so much cuteness/chibiness!? xD

Well, anyway, Happy Holidays and enjoy your apple pie xD

Yesterday, there was a preview day of HvA in Amsterdam. HvA is one of the institutes of higher learning in the Netherlands. I plan to enrol in one of the bachelors they offer. This will be next year though. I went to see if Interactive Media would be something for me. Well, I think it is. I kept staring at all those projects students created in Flash and stuff. I was like: I belong here! There was also a presentation about the propedeuse (the first year at a university or the institute of higher learning). During the presentation they clearly stated that they don’t train only web designers or only programmers. They educate people who know something about everything in the world of Interactive Media. Sometimes people join the course only thinking of becoming web designers, but afterwards they realise they were wrong and quit half way. Uhu.

I went to the city mall on my way back home because I wanted to buy a straighter (I hate my hair the way it is!). Like always I also went to the comic/manga store. OMG, since when do they have almost all volumes of Trigun Maximum?! I bought volume 2 and 4 (I already had 3). I had to buy! Oh and Kamikaze sounded interesting so I bought first 3 volumes of it as well. I’m broke now! I won’t be able to buy any manga till January 2008 T_________T Lately I’ve been treating myself to lots of manga…

Ah, Shinsen-Subs released D.Gray-man 58 and Night Wizard 3. Live-evil released Shion no Ou 5. I’ve a four-day weekend anyway *grin*

Okay, so, perhaps I could have thought of a much more original title. But I’ve never been good at that. Basically, this is the very first post of this site. Even though this domain was registered in September, it took me 2 whole months to complete just the layout. I personally believe that that’s way too much time for one layout. But I had to learn new techniques for this layout. I’m a self-taught web designer with no professional study about web designing. I’ve always wanted to create a CSS only layout. Before this, I have always used a tables layout. But, even I know that CSS layouts are more flexible. So I bought magazines and read tutorials on-line about CSS and this is the result. There was this one more thing that I wanted: to switch from html to xhtml. I didn’t knew that there isn’t much difference between these two. xhtml is more strict and even tags like br (line break) and img (image) have to be closed. As for the rest, it’s basically the same. Btw, this site is xhtml valid :)

Enough about technical stuff. Let’s see… this is going to be blog. I’m not new to blogging. I’ve had a blog before, two actually. My last blog went off-line in May. I guess, it was time to buy a domain/hosting myself.

Today was a free day for me, actually, I never have classes on Friday. Yesterday, I went shopping and bought some stuff too. I wanted a body warmer and slippers. And like always I went to the comic/manga store, and bought two manga’s. Genshiken vol. 01 and Kanna vol. 01. Kanna seems to be pretty new.

I’ve an exam about public press&public relations on Monday, and about sales tax on Tuesday. And tomorrow a few relatives are coming over because of my little sister’s birthday. She will turn 8 on Sunday. Our house will be filled with little kids the whole weekend. When am I supposed to study? * sigh* I think I’ll wake up early tomorrow to study a little.
