With school not starting up until August and not taking summer school for the first time in ages, I decided to make a to-do/goals/ideas list for the summer. Some I know I’m not going to accomplish right away but it’d be nice to have everything compiled in a list so I can look back on it later. I’ll update this as I accomplish a task. If you’re around in the area and would like to join with in an event, feel free to!

And I shall partake in the majority of these!
Lame me just figured this out. Boy do I need a vacation.Anywho, No one wants to talk Con with me.
I want to put together a scavenger hunt, any ideas?
Hmm, a scavenger hunt! I wouldn’t know where to start since I never got around to planning one myself
But they’re so fun!
Oh wow you have a bigger list than mine.Then again, i’m stuck with work everyday u_u;;Hobby Search DID have a restock on those Miku Figma’s like yesterday but they ran out fast.. >_<By the way did you know they finished the Life-size RX-78?http://www.marvinryan.com/blog/2009/06/09/odaiba-gundam-project/:D
@Sorrow: I hear you about being stuck at work everyday ><@Lene: You know about the get-together I’m organizing for SDCC already ^^v thinking about doing one for AX, but I’m not planning on staying at that con very long, just long enough to do some figure/figma/gunpla shopping then head back home. Will keep you posted tho
Yuuichi-kun’s last blog..No more teasing!
Wow, quite a list ! I wish I was ambitious enough to have a list half as long. :]blauereiter’s last blog..Green Tea Coca Cola !
@Yuuichi: Ah, awesome! I still don’t know if I’ll be able to make it up there, but if so, I’m aiming for July 3/Friday. I’d like to go figure shopping there, myself XD@Sorrow: I saw the life-sized RX-78! It’s so massive! *____*I’d love to have a job right about now. I actually have one for sure, but since it revolves around the school year, I’m not working as much D: So I’m in the process of looking for something that’s more stable for the summer. Plus, I need to stop waking up at 10 AM -____- Got to get my day started earlier but I can’t help it, hahaha.@blauereiter: Thank you! I hope to at least make a dent in this list in one way or another :]
@Yuuichi: Yeah it sucks but it’s worth the $$ I make >_>;;@Lene: Do you know how long they’re going to have it up? I might not make it to Tokyo this summer T_TAlso, I wanted to ask about blogs and stuff :OI never got around to getting one myself but I need some tips ^^;:D
Look like a busy summer u are going to have!gordon’s last blog..PhotoFunia
@Sorrow: The word is they’re planning on taking it down in the end of August. There are petitions to either have it moved or stay up longer.Yuuichi-kun’s last blog..Destiny Mikuru
Yuck, Comment Luv is acting up
Sent in a support ticket, hopefully it’ll get fixed.@Sorrow: Hmm, do you want to focus on a particular topic when you want to blog or do you want it to have all kinds of aspects? I know some people focus on culture, video games, movies, or whatever whereas some people use it as a diary or even a photo blog.Also, are you looking to use something like wordpress.com or blogger? Or get your own WP blog or use something else like TypePad?
The cool thing about WP is that it’s really customizable, even if you install a theme. You can tweak it to your liking!@Gordon: Hopefully this’ll keep me busy! I don’t want to get bored over the summer ;_;@Yuuichi: AAH ;_; Maybe I can ask my friends in Japan to see if they can visit it before they come back to the States!
@Lene-chan: Haha, as one of my last figures, I’ve got a “Figma Miku” I haven’t opened yet! Oooh, 1 TB drive, nice! So u like putting all of your eggs in one huge basket? LOL, actually, I got a Western Digital 500 GB a couple years ago, but the software interface died. Never getting anything bigger than 100-300 GB ever again!P.S. By the way, I noticed that your CommentLuv is new too. Here’s a fix to the “no blog posts found” problem I found thru trial-and-error. Your URL gets the same problem too (I just typed it in). The fix: Just add the path /feed/ to your URL. And it works! Our last post appears! ^o^xJAYMANx’s last blog..Blog 205 > Crows, Castles & Chaos Ahead
@Jay: I fixed up everything! It looked like ComLuv didn’t like my previous theme after I upgraded it. It feeds correctly now…I think o: At least when I do it on here, haha.I really need to get myself an external; I actually don’t own one
I share space with my boyfriend, since I don’t take up that much room, but I’d like to get an external so I can back up my parents’ stuff, too and so we can look forward to storing other stuff like more movies and pictures.As for that figma Miku, will you be opening it up any time soon?
I wish I got it a couple months back when I saw it in stock at a store I usually frequent, but I didn’t have money at the time! orz.
@Lene-chan: Ahh, nice new template! Ohh, u mean those weird [rq] tags? I would’ve tried to use CSS with a “hidden” property. I mean, I had to use CSS again, since the new ComLuv erased my previous ComLuv styling. Ahhh, maybe I can use CSS to highlight my own comments like yours, hehe… Ah, I see. Yeah, most of my archives are movie files too. But I usually just burn that onto blank DVDs… Hmm, actually, I haven’t any “rhythmic emotion” over Figma Miku once I got her. The brevity of fads? Even thought of shipping her to Mimi-chan as a b-day present (but decided on something else for her). So Miku might be boxed up for a while, lol.P.S. Bahhh, your ComLuv (and mine) still gives me a “no blog posts found” error. But luckily, my /feed/ solution still works! ^_^.-= xJAYMANx´s last blog ..Blog 205 > Crows, Castles & Chaos Ahead =-.
