   Japan Fest
Hi, all.

Yes, I am aware that it has been ages since I updated this darned thing, but hey. I try^^

I thought I would randomly babble about something really neat that's happening at the Comunity College near me^^

It's Japan Fest, and it happens once a year. This is taking place next weekend. Yay! I can't wait! I'm in a taiko drumming group called KiDaiko, and we are going to reap the benifits of having a workshop with the profesional taiko group, MuDaiko, that will be proforming there^^

Also, Japan Fest will always hold a place close to my heart. This is where I first found out about Naka Kon 2006, which just so happens to be the frist anime con I ever went to^^ And also where I met Greg Ayres. Yay!

Anyway, there's tons of cultural stuff, like workshops on how to play Go and Shougi. Stuff to do with Kendo and karate. And, of course, the anime booths^^ So much anime, manga and merchandise^^ I bought the cutest Shika plushie there! Too bad it got stollen at school like a week ago.....that and my Gaara plushie.....if I ever find out who took them, they will wake up one day with out a spleen.

So! I plan on buying another Shika plushie, and a HUGE Gaara plushie! I've seen them before and they are very cuddly^^ For Gaara, that is. lol.

I know this doesn't mean much to all you people, but I like talking about stuff like this^^

Oh! Also, I'm still waiting on reading chapter 127 of Fruits basket....no one has a scanlation of it and I wanna scream!!! Theres only like 5 chapters after that one until the end of the series and I can't read it! I wanna know what happens with Tohru, Kyo, Yuki, Momiji, Haru, Rin, Hiro, Shigure, Akito, Hatori, Kisa, Kureno, Uo, Hana, Shishou, Ayame and...and.....all the other characters that matter! I wanna knoooooooooow!

Okay. I'm done complaining now^^ Thanks for reading!

Take it easy. Buh bye!

(by the way, I love comments^^ Please leave one. I don't care if you just say, "Hi" I just like knowing if people read my random babble. Thanks!)

   Greg Ayres!!
I realized after I posted my first post, that it would have made (possibly) a little more sense to post this one first.

Greg Ayres is my favorite voice actor. Period. He is amazing. End of story. There is nothing else to say.
.....But I will anyway^^

At Naka Kon 2006, I cosplayed as Son Goku from Saiyuki because he's my favorite character in any anime (if you read my first post, Kyo is my second favorite^^ I still love you, Kyon kyon! >.<) and not only because Greg Ayres voices him, but that does help^^ We went as the Sanzo Party. My brother was Hakkai, my sister was Gojyo, and my friend was Sanzo. It was pretty funny, because the only guy was Hakkai^^

Anyway, we worked for EVER on these costumes, and I think they turned out pretty good. The reason I was so serious about the costumes being perfect was because I had found out that Greg Ayres, my favorite Voice Actor of all time, was going to be at Naka Kon. So, I was going to be cosplaying at a con, with my favorite Voice actor, as my favorite character, which just so happens to be one of my favorite Voice Actor's favorite characters he's ever voiced....if that makes any sense^^

The point is, it was absolutly amazing when I met him. We got to the con late, and walked into the Cosplay Contest area to watch at which point we got swamped by fan girls that wanted to glomp us and or take pictures. I instantly saw Greg, but he was way far away and I think he may have been helping judge so there was nooooo way I was going to bother him. I saw him stand up and leave, at which point I got all pouty. A few minutes later, my family and I walked up a floor to the balcony to watch from there. My cousin, who was also there, came up to us and said someone wanted to see us. I was thinking "hehe, neat^^ A fellow fan". When I walked into the hall, I shrieked. Greg Ayres was standing right there, smiling his happy little face off. I said, "Oh my God! Greg Ayres!"

He thought we were awesome. He just kept looking at our costumes and saying how good they were. I was so happy. He told us that he'd seen a Gojyo walk by as he was coming back in from a smoke, and he'd asked my cousin to get us. The rest of that day at the con he talked to us and signed a toooon of stuff for us. As he was signing our stuff, I just had to ask him for a hug and he was all like, "Yeah! Sure!" and he got up off the stage and hugged me. My mother is amazing, so she got that moment in a photo. It's perfect because you can only see Greg's face and he looks really happy^^ It was way cool.

The next day, more people asked for pictures and glomps and I was happy. Then, is was time for Greg's panel^^ He was just giving his panel, when suddenly the subject of cosplay came up and he had me stand up to show them my costume^^ Then a few minutes later, he said that we were his favorite people at the con^^ I was so happy.

Anyway, at the end of that last day, we won the Group Hall Cosplay Contest and Greg congradulated us. He said he'd known before, but wasn't allowed to tell us and it had been killing him. He's adorable. We went to the parking lot and low and behold! we saw him again.

Man. That was awesome. I hope I meet him again.

Sorry about my rant. Sometimes I just have to talk about that con or my heart will explode.

Thanks for reading!

Take it easy. Buh bye!

   Fruits Basket Manga is A-friggin-mazing
Yes, yes. That's right. I've been reading scanlations of the Furuba manga (because I got too impatient to wait after volume 14. lol) and I'm up to 127 which isn't translated anywhere as far as I can tell and that is really annoying! There's only like five chapters left that I have to read, dang it!

Ahem...Anyway, I feel really lame. I didn't know how to post here (because I'm lame, as I already said) so I was showing my sister my site and she instantly figures out how to post. Stupid me and being unable to see what is soooo right infront of me -_-'

So, back to Fruits Basket. I will not say any spoilers here (no matter how much I would like to. I know how tempting spoilers are) but I'd like to ask anyone who may read this a question.

Are you a TohruKyo fan, or a TohruYuki fan?

I myself, am a totaly Kyoru fan^^ I mean, come on, Yukiru just sounds lame. lol. But seriously, that's not why I want Tohru to end up with Kyo. I think that Kyo needs her more. Plan and simple. I always have^^

Feel free to bash me for saying that, but it won't change my opinion^^ Then agian, I know mine won't change your's either, so we're even.

Anyway, I just need to talk about Fruits Basket every now and then for my own health^^

Take it easy. Buh bye!
