Playing Tetris

It’s been almost a month since I came back and both suitcases are still sitting in the middle of my bedroom mostly unpacked. I did take out most of the anime stuff though and now I’m facing yet another dilemma: where am i going to put all that crap!! Figurines are currently taking up all [...]

Return from Jland

The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated. Well, not so greatly as I still have not unpacked, despite coming back two weeks ago.
I actually find it very hard to write about the trip to Japan simply because there was nothing there that I thinks deserves special attention. Tokyo was nothing surprising, Akihabara [...]

State of the desk

The mini-games on the MGS4 websites where amusing enough. The result will probobly occupy my desktop for pretty long period of time. I actually don’t look at my desktop too much, so I rarely change it, and considering this one is interactive - it will stay there for a while ^^. Now onto the desk:

The Anime DVDs, or why i don’t care

As I was going through my “to buy” list for my upcoming trip to J-land, figuring out whether or not I want to buy one thing a ditch the other, or buy both and fuck the budget etc. etc. I caught myself noticing that a good deal of the planned items are anime DVDs. [...]
