2011 Backlog Part 3: Mostly Dolls
And finally... The last part of my backlog. It ranged from mid-September to early December. Many events that I failed to post right after they happened, but usually it's because I go home late, tired and then the next day my work week starts again......
2011 Backlog Part 2: Point Roberts
I quite a bit of photos from Point Roberts that it warranted to have its own post, though backlogged that it is... So I bought these new shoes from eBay and to save some shipping, I sent it to a package receiving service in Point Roberts. It's the fi...
2011 Backlog Part 1: Dolls and Food
Happy New Year! ...Oh, it's way past that... Err... Happy Lunar New Year? Also a week late... Sigh... It's been so long since I posted anything here. I blame Star Wars: The Old Republic. So my first post of the year is backlog from last year, lol. I'...
Christmas Doll Meet 2011
Merry Christmas everyone! I thought it would be perfect day for me to post the photos from the Christmas doll meet for this day... Plus I've been lazy and busy playing SW:TOR >.> Compared to last year's Christmas meet, there were a lot more people th...
Festival of Lights 2011
In the winter, the Van Dusen Botanical Garden always have their annual Festival of Light where most of the garden is decorated with lights. This year the event runs from December 9th until January 2nd in the next year. It helps that it gets darker so...
Yuri Mania 39 - Featuring: Suenaga Mirai!
Gokigenyou! Welcome to another session of Yuri Mania! This post is to commemorate my 150th Weekly Lily on Figure.FM! Yes, I know Mirai figma came out a long time ago, but I haven't had much time nor the idea til now ^^; Hmm... Mirai Gundam is also he...
Tomoe Mami USB Flash Drive
Tiro... FINALE! Mami's final attack is one of the most powerful and dramatic sounding... Unfortunately it doesn't work all the time ^^;
(This post contains spoiler to Puella Magi Madoka Magica. I'm sure most of you know already where this is going o...
Yuri Mania 38
Gokigenyou! It's MEIKO's birthday so Luka and Miku congratulates MEIKO on her birthday ^^; Miku is actually not mine, but borrowed from Kaionlriu. Been meaning to take some photos of her but didn't get around to it til now.
I've been so rusty in ma...
The Birth[day] of MEIKO [DD]
Happy birthday MEIKO! I posted this on the 4th, but by now, it is already November 5th in Japan. She is now 7 years old. I liked her since 2008-09, so you could say I liked her since she was 4-5 years old... Wait, that makes me sound like a lolicon!...
Shiteyan'yo
I've been meaning to make this post for a long time now. For some reason I'm fascinated by this two legged Miku face meme. It's creepy and scary, but I'm intrigued. Very unique creature that roams this land ^_^ So I figured it's appropriate for a Hal...
Early Halloween Doll Meet
On October 16th, I went to an early Halloween BJD Meet, which is on my working day... But using creative timing, I was able to attend with no problem. The aim was to get our dolls in costume, but I didn't really have one for Helen... So I got her swi...
Canadian Autumn Starring Helen White
While it was still sunny out in the usual rainy Vancouver, I took the opportunity to go outside and take some photos. No, I don't usually do this, but I remember seeing very nice red leaves when I went out in the morning, so I figured I'll take a few...
Aoi & Mari's BirthDDay
After almost a month of no posts, I've finally getting around to this post about a doll meet that happened almost a month ago... My last blog post was my blogday post, which happened to be when this meet occurred ^^; ANYHOO... The owner of Aoi and Ma...
Cospa Collection (as of Oct. 2011)
For my third blogday (third year anniversary of blogging), I was going to do a more complex project. Something to commemorate the third year... Unfortunately I've been so busy and tired that I forgotten it all until I realized that it was almost time...
Burnaby and Deer Lake Park Meet
Seems like all my posts recently has been nothing but doll meets ^^;; Oh well, it's better than to just forget what happened, yes? There are still a few things I haven't posted yet and haven't found the time to edit and post yet! Oh well... Anyhoo, t...
Lynn Canyon Park Doll Adventure
There have been so many events and outing lately that I haven't got a chance to post them all immediately. Like this meet at Lynn Canyon Park happened two weeks ago ^^;;; I thought about just leaving it, but there would be very nice photos I won't be...
BlueStarBaby's Birthday Meet
I love alliteration! Indeed, this was BlueStarBaby having a meet to celebrate her birthday. Unfortunately I couldn't stay too long and just dropped by with snacks, a gift and a new Azone Pureneemo debut. Did you guess who my newest Azone girl was fro...
Raising an Azone Army
I initiated a Hobby Search group order in the group I'm in on Facebook which was mostly for just a Pureneemo doll stand,but then it became an Azone army raising event!
There were 6 of us ordering, but 3 of us ordered a Pureneemo. So yea... Not all...
Sea-to-Sky TakoLuka
Sea-to-Sky Highway is one of Vancouver's famous roads that goes from Vancouver to Whistler and even further into the mountains. I'm borrowing that name for this post, because it's pretty close to where TakoLuka has gone for this past two weeks ^^
F...
ReaperofLeaves Birthday Sleepover
This past Friday was reaperofleaves' birthday and she held a sleepover party at her place. It was a bit far from where I was, so I guess it made sense to have a sleepover ^^ It took about 30-40 minutes drive without any stopovers or if the GPS doesn'...
Cos & Effect 2011
What do you expect when you see the event called "Cos & Effect"? I was only expecting a one-day cosplay only event. Apparently I was mistaken. It was almost like a full convention minus the guests. A mini-con if you prefer. I thought it'd be a small...
Doll Summer Pool Party!
With me by myself in the house for almost a month, I thought it was a good idea to have some fun at home, so why not have a piece of summer doll meat, eh? Err... Well meetup with everyone and their dolls, that is. What I didn't expect was 20+ people...
A Week in Vancouver (After a Week in L.A.)
Well, technically three weeks in Vancouver, and technically it wasn't really a week in L.A., but you get the gist of it... I was trying to post this a week after my AX trip, but turns out it was one of the busiest month for me thus far! It's like eve...
Featherfall and Obitsu 11cm
A semi-completed group order from Featherfall prompted me to start working on my Nendoroid/Obitsu hybrid using the Obitsu 11cm body that I got from Anime Expo. So I'll start with the Obitsu body right after the jump. It's a naked Obitsu 11cm body, bu...
NERV HQ & Bday Presents
Here is the NERV HQ base that I got from Yakuri when I was in L.A. I first seen it on her blog and was impressed with it, but this time I have my own and assembled it. It's quite compact at first, but it opens up to a lot of things you see from the a...
Cardcaptor Lightning Sabre
I've captured a few cards from Anime Expo. I'm not sure what kind of magic is in it if I call out their names... "Hooeeeeeeee!" Ah yea... I am a big fan of Cardcaptor Sakura after all, lol. Now where's my guardian animal, Keroberos, to explain what t...
New Stuff from AX 2011
When I wanna be vague when someone asks me what I buy, I say, "stuff". And that's what I bought. Really! So much stuff, lol. I was trying to hold back. I didn't buy any figures either and some of them are freebies and signed stuff. The one up top is...
To Live and Eat in L.A.
Yeah, that's right, I took that title from a movie, To Live and Die in L.A. You got a problem with that? :P Anyhoo... This post is mostly photos from outside of Anime Expo which consists of scenery and food. That's right, food pictures, so if you're...
Dolls of AX 2011
This year's Anime Expo had quite a significant difference... It's the first time I have two imouto attending with me ^^ This year I brought Helen and Mugi to Anime Expo. Because of this I seemed to have gotten more photos of dolls and Dollfie Dreams...
AX 2011: Consolidated Edition
For some reason I've been hearing the word "consolidate" a lot... So I'll use it too for my main Anime Expo post. Last year I wrote up everything in one post and it was looooonnngggg! This year there weren't as much events to describe, so maybe it'll...
Anime Expo 2011 Cosplay
Another Anime Expo is finished and somehow the easiest thing to sort out were the cosplay photos. I don't even know how to sort out the other ones yet... So anyway, don't mind my whining. For now here are the cosplay photos. It was another hot weeken...
Yuri Mania 37
Gokigenyou! Seems like tradition now that when I'm about to leave for a week to an anime convention (Anime Expo again this year), I leave with a yuri post here. Last year it was the dakimakura yuri and the year before it is the docking oppai mousepad...
June Doll Meet: Dressup Party
Very late... Most people have posted their photos right after the meet ^^; But I've been feeling lazy, so I've only posted it now, even though the meet was June 11th, hahaha. We first started with lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant where one of our com...
BIG Plushies
Lookit the size of that thing! Yep, for some reason I got myself a big grunty even though I have a small one already. I bought it years ago on impulse. I just couldn't resist getting him because he looked really cute for its size ^^; Now I don't have...
Coping...
Reality hits you hardest when death is involved... I hate facing it, but for the past two weeks I have to deal with it. When it happened, I couldn't believe it that it happen so soon... I thought there would be more time... I took everything for gran...
Thrice-Cooked Doll Meat
Err... That's "Doll Meet" btw... And it's thrice, because we met at three different locations for our meet. I started to head out from around 9 am to The Urban Tea Merchant in downtown Vancouver. I still don't like parking in downtown Vancouver ^^; T...
