Welcome to my site archives. 10 posts are listed per page.
I was watching Bleach on Adult Swim on Cartoon network (ep#45 AM Sunday 08-12-07 EST) and I went on my MySpace and did a Google search for the name of one of Bleach characters I couldn't recall at the time. In the search I saw a quiz for "What Bleach Character are You" on TheOtaku.com. That prompted me to check my page on MyOtaku.com (That I haven't updated in a very, very long time) and I see a comment on my page from ChaosReapper left July 5. I then click to check out ChaosReapper's page (which is awesome and you should check it out right after you are done reading this) when, lo and behold, ChaosReapper's page is Bleach-tastic!
I love it when things seem to fall in line and relate to each other. It's almost as if I were lead right to it. (^_~)
What the heck
I was updating my MySpace page theny my Live Journal page and thought I'd post something on MyOtaku.
-----------------------------------
I hope the New Year found you all happy and healthy. I know people are preparing for Otakon. They are trying to decide who to room with and what to dress as. I know the "Otakon Prom" topic received a lot of attention on the Otakon mailing list I'm on. It would be cool if they had it at a time that nothing else I want to do or see is happening. It's fun to dress up and look and feel pretty.
The Zenkaikon Spring Formal is fast approaching. I need to buy my ticket. It'll be a great dress up photo opportunity. I know a lot of the people who are going. We're all going to hang out after the formal in our dresses if we can find somewhere to go.
Kiwi talked me into having UNO meets one Saturday a month. It'll be better to play in a spacious room with a real table instead of my apartment on the floor. (*_*) So if you are an UNO Lover check out our UnoLovers Yahoo! Group for details.
There will also be an UNO tournament at the next DAS meeting. Kiwi's message said $1.00 to participate and there will be prizes. I don't know what the prizes are but if the core UNO group shows up it should be fun. Comments (1) |

DAS Annual Holiday Party
I'm finally getting around to posting. I had a little time off work for the holiday. (^_^)
I just wanted to post a pic from the Delaware Anime Society's Annual Holiday Mini-Con.
It's been a long time. I shouldn't have left you...
...without a strong beat to step to." - From "Soul" by Eric B. and Rakim
What's up peoples? The sky and the ceiling, you say?
I haven't posted here in forever and I've been doing stuff too. Here's a little run down of my activities.
---------------------
Cosplay picnic:
It was a nice sunny day and the grill flames were high. The pinata was full of candy and we got a nice group pic.
Otakon:
Lots of fun, got to room with new people. I missed hanging out with my girl Kiwi but we all made it through the weekend. I dressed up as Shun Morihata from Shingu on that Saturday. Of course no one knew who I was except for the people who were watching Shingu in one of the Video rooms. LOL!
Superior Clean-up:
We cleaned up the back room of Superior Comics in Dover to have larger, dedicated meeting space (with a decent bathroom).
DAS Radio:
DAS has (if I remember correctly) 2 more streaming audio DJ's with online radio shows throught the week. Plus streaming DAS audio anytime you want to hear it. Check it out! (^_^)
DAS Halloween Mini-con:
The DAS Halloween Mini-con was packed this year! It was a lot of fun. Good food and good friends. I went as an "over zealous con-goer" - I had all my con badges around my neck and buttons all over my shirt and cat ears. I was going to go as a banana and have the "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" song playing on my person but Matt D. threatened bodily harm if I did that. LOL!! Then I saw a Speed Racer Costume but I didn't get that costume either. I did find a "Things You Need To Know About Chuck Norris" shirt at the costume shop; so it wasn't a total loss.
In hindsight I should have gotten the Speed Racer costume. It was a nice costume for only $40 and I could have worn it at Zenkaikon and loitered around Corine Orr and Peter Fernandez. (^_~) Which brings me to Zenkaikon.
Zenkaikon:
Wow! It went better than I thought it would. I had a lot of fun. Luckily things worked out for the most part. It helped having VGX in the same building. I felt fortunate to get the opportunity to experience VGX. This year was a good experience and I think next year will be even better.
DAS Meetings are resuming for November:
DAS Meeting at Superior Comics, Dover takes place this Saturday, 11-11-06 at 2:00 pm
The DAS Pennsylvania Meeting, 219 Mill Street in Bristol will also take place this Saturday, 11-11-06 at 2:00 pm.
The DAS Meeting at Brandywine Library, Wilmington takes place next Sunday, 11-19-06 at 2:00 pm.
And if you miss all of those meetings there just might be a DAS Omake meeting at the end of the month. We'll see what everyone's Thanksgiving holiday schedules are like. (^_^)
---------------------
Check out www.DelawareAnimeSociety.com and Delaware Anime Society on Yahoo! Groups for details because I could be all wrong. (^_~)
If you missed Zenkaikon 2006, stay tuned to www.Zenkaikon.com for details about 2007! It'll be bigger and better! (^_^)
Also, want to see pictures of the stuff I've been gabbing about? I know you do. Don't front. Check out my Photobucket albums.
All of the albums are clearly marked. Click on one and let the emotion envelope you. Or just laugh at the goofy looking people. Whatever floats your boat. (^_^)
Peace to the Middle East and all over the world.

Typing my name made me remember a new name I came up with at Z-con. "Hentai_Nai" LMAO!! It was funny to me, Tim and Jim but I guess you had to be there. (^_~)
---------------------
Not familiar with what you need to know about Chuck Norris?
Well check this out. Reader discretion is advised.
OMG!! I forgot to mention NewTypeUSA's November centerfold is the best centerfold they've had (IMHO) since they had Kenshiro from the New Fist of the North Star!
It's Ban and Ginji from Getbackers manga!!!
And they look H-O-T-T, HOT!
(Nostalgic nod to the show "USA High")
The centerfold definitly has yaoi-licious flavoring.
It's so good I had to frame it. Not a plastic frame either. I went for the cherry wood to match my living room furniture (frames were 1/2 off at JoAnn's).
They have open shirts, matching earings and manacles with chains.
Yeah. It's like that.
If you are into bishounen (who isn't?) then you would want to get the November NewTypeUSA. It's worth it just for the centerfold pic.
Oh yeah. It also has some good articles, fanart, industry information, a DVD, manga insert and their monthly contest too.
I got home from Otakon in the early evening today (Sunday). I had a great time (as per the usual)! There were a lot more of my club members there for me to interact with this year but I still missed hanging out with my good friend Kiwi. We got to hang together for a bit.
I can't wait to get my pictures uploaded. There were some great costumes of characters I hadn't seen in years past.
And of course, I spent too much money on too many T-shirts that I don't really need. One of the few things that I don't have "buyer's remorse" over is the manga "The Judged" by Akira Honma. I've heard nothing but good things about it. It's from "DQ/Drama Queen" and for mature readers ONLY! If you are such a reader then check out www.OneDramaQueen.com. They have some interesting and tasteful Yaoi stories.
This year I shared a room with people I know but don't know as well as others, but it was fun and it worked out beautifully.
Also, I got to meet one of my chat friends in person! That's the best part. Meeting online friends in the flesh. Then you know if they sent real pictures or not. LOL! (^_^)
I am in the process of uploading my pics to my Photobucket album as I type this. You can check them out at: http://s14.photobucket.com/albums/a302/Kawaii_Nai/Otakon%202006/
The read only password to view this album is: Nailah
Well that's about it for now. I hope you all are enjoying your summer and preparing yourself for any work and/or education opportunities.
Take care and think before you act. You may spare a life or just spare someone's feelings. (^_^)
The last DASN meeting turned out great! We were in a smaller room that usual so it got very cozy. To see some pictures go to Photobucket.com, login: Kawaii_Nai, password: Nailah then choose the DASN Meet 3-19-06.
I have back-up reservations for Otakon. I don't want to get caught without some place to stay. It's going be a good time as always. (^_^)
