I never thought I’d make one of these posts, to be honest, but I did it! It was pretty exhilarating, and I learned a lot in the process. Rewind back to around March 15th. I went to start up my PC, and all of a sudden the screen began pixelating, giving this pulsing rainbow effect. […]
As mentioned in an earlier post, Liz and I made a bunch of different kinds of cookies for Valentine’s Day. It actually took us 3 days! I just had so many recipes I wanted to try… Anyways, before starting I asked Daniel what kind of cookies/chocolates he might want, and he mentioned orange/fruit with chocolate. […]
During high school, my friends and I would get together and make cookies for Valentine’s Day. I, being a diehard romantic, always loooooved the idea of baking for someone special — even if they were just for my friends. Reading manga about girls staying up late baking for the person they like + their friends… it […]
Life hasn’t stopped moving, but I will try to pick up where I left off with the next few posts. I’ll try to take things slow and not overwhelm myself with starting too many entries at once (a very bad habit), so I’ll pick something short and sweet. I went to SoCal for a business […]
Last year we moved around stuff in our storage, and I found a ton of old things from my childhood — my gamecube, nintendo64 games, old anime DVDs (you know.. the 3 episode ones that went for $20-$25/ea), and amazingly enough… my pokemon TCG collection! I thought I’d lost these, so I was overcome with […]
This year I spent the holidays in California with my relatives. My great aunt flew in from Missouri, so we had a little reunion! It was a quiet Christmas day cooking together and watching TV. I was in charge of photographing the food (as always), however I wasn’t able to shoot everything. We forgot to […]
This afternoon we drove to Santa Monica Seafood in Costa Mesa for lunch! It had a fish market filled with many types of freshly-caught and prepared fish as well as a cafe! Despite the pouring rain, the outdoor seating area was well-heated and it was pretty relaxing having the rain for background noise (once you […]
Along with the snow shots in my previous post, I took the opportunity to photograph my latest art book purchase: Square Enix’s Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward | The Art of Ishgard -Stone and Steel-! I’m a huge fan of the FF MMO series. Back in elementary and middle school I played FFXI more than I […]
I happened to still be awake last night when it first started falling, so I was really excited to get outside today! I charged my batteries overnight and bundled up for a snowy walk in the afternoon. 🙂 To my complete surprise I stumbled across a holly tree! We had a holly tree right in […]
She’s hereeee!!! She’s finally here!!!! A little background story about Good Smile Company’s 1/8th scale Kaori Miyazono in particular: this is the figure that sparked my interest in possibly beginning a collection. I know there are hundreds and hundreds of beautifully-crafted and elaborate figures out there in the world, but the day I came across […]
