Almost a year ago, Konata and Yuki helped out with decorating the house with Christmas ornaments. This year, Miku wanted to help! Although, she seemed to enjoy posing with the decorations more than helping out.

What’s in your bag?
29 Nov
This is an attempt to get back into blogging once more. I have so many things I want to mention, but I’m not sure if I want to keep at it since the events were long past. I have a ton of pictures from the last charity event Lester and I attended with the San Diego Star Wars Society, but that was from a month ago. Should I still do a recap post for it? I also have pictures from my little trip with Mom to the Bay Area (in which I acquired the durian Hi-Chew). Hmm.
Anyway, I’m curious. What’s in your bag?
I ran across a Flickr pool a while back and started to follow it. It’s interesting what people oftentimes carry with them. Do you use a tote bag? Purse? Murse? Messenger bag? I’d like to know!
Pictured above is a bottle of Lipton raspberry white tea (which I love drinking), moisturizer for my face, my sushi makeup bag, sunglasses, my trusty Nintendo DS that’s been through thick and thin, a travel bottle of anti-bacterial hand gel from Bath & Body Works that comes in handy, iPod shuffle named Exia (since I leave my 30 GB at home), Burt’s Bee’s lemon butter cuticle cream (great for keeping your nails in tip-top shape; it smells heavenly, too!), some pens (the Transcend pen was from CES), a notepad featuring art from Jean-Michel Basquiat, my Cupco Poketo wallet, and a bag of li hing sour watermelon candies that my sister bought for me from Hawaii. I love li hing candies!
Not pictured in here are my cell phone and my Chapstick. Those I usually keep in my pockets, not my bag. I’m notorious for losing my cell phone and Chapstick a lot. My Chapstick often falls victim to the washer and dryer because I always leave it in my pockets ^^;
I want to know what’s in your bag! :3
Recent acquisitions pre & post Black Friday
28 Nov
So…how many of you braved the malls and large department stores and did some Black Friday shopping? I know some people actually headed out to the outlet stores prior to midnight to do their shopping and some stayed in line to be one of the first in line to get deals on whatever. This year, I actually stayed clear of buying any kinds of electronics for fear of getting trampled on. I’m small, you know 
I also figured I’d save my purchases for online (or at least for Cyber Monday, *cough*Ineedanewrouter*cough*). However, my parents and I did find ourselves going to Fashion Valley this morning at 5:30 AM. I was actually surprised at myself for getting up and getting ready in record time; I could never do that when it comes to going to school 
This post will actually cover some recently (and suddenly) acquired merchandise prior to Black Friday when I took a trip up to the Bay Area last weekend and today after enduring Black Friday. I will first start with this mini Chara Fortune from Macross Frontier. Can you possibly guess who this is?
Gifts from Japan
24 Aug
My friend, Jennice, is finally back home from Japan! After not seeing her for a year, we finally got to meet up, catch up on life, and go on a carne asada fries spree. Here’s her welcome back gift: a letter in Uglydoll stationary, an origami Chansey, origami boxes with lucky stars, and a Tamagotchi. Yay, welcome back!
Photofunia

I was inspired by Gordon’s post regarding Photofunia and wanted to mess around with the site, too! Enjoy the random photos and Youtube links after the jump. Image sources range from imgDump to Gelbooru.
Also, if you’d like, you can vote for your favorite images :3
Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet
24 Feb
On Saturday, I accompanied Lester to another 501st event, this time involving a surprise visit to the Boy Scouts of America Pack 825 in Eastlake. Their annual Blue & Gold Banquet was Star Wars-themed and involved a cake decorating contest with the Cub Scouts. Little did they know that the adults running around looking at the cakes were the very same people up on stage in costume. (more…)
Good times with good company
24 Jan
As winter break drew to a close, what better way to spend it than with your good friends? Within the past couple of days, we’ve had a picnic at a park, dinner, saw one another again on campus, and celebrated the Lunar New Year. And you know what? I’m not tired of them at all.
Here are a couple of pictures from the past couple of days. Enjoy! If you want to see more, you can always check out my Flickr. Also, if you have an account on Flickr, you can always add me too 
On a slight tangent, if you want to trade links or want to be added to my blogroll, I’m more than happy to 
Just say the word and I’m totally down for it.
Photo dump #2
22 Jan
As I still write up my review on Nadesico, have another camera phone photo dump! I can’t sleep quite yet even though school starts up tomorrow, so I present to you: more random photos. I saw this particular image over at a Costco. Who knew that a hot dog and mustard would fall in love?
2008 San Diego Big Bay Balloon Parade
1 Jan
On Monday, Lester and I went alongside the San Diego Star Wars Society, the 501st Legion: San Diego Squad, and the Dented Helmet to the 2008 Port of San Diego Big Bay Balloon Parade held annually on Harbor Drive. Lester was volunteering to march and asked me if I wanted to volunteer as well as a wrangler and photographer. I actually ended up being a wrangler, runner, and photographer all at once, but hey! In the end, it was a great experience.
Stormtrooper formals
16 Dec
I wish there were Stormtrooper formals! About a little more than a week ago, my boyfriend and I went over to a winter formal hosted by SDSU’s APSA. It was their last main gathering of the semester and a bunch of their general members came out to celebrate the end of the semester with us all.
Since it was the last main gathering for a long while, my boyfriend and I decided to roll out in style. Needless to say, a lot of heads turned our way when we came around.
Just to clarify, he’s a Shadow/Blackhole Stormtrooper. Common assumptions by people are that he’s Darth Vader or a TIE pilot. In reality, he, too, is a Stormtrooper! He’s just short and dark hahaha. Also, you can see Shadow Stormtroopers in the video game The Force Unleashed. They’re canon!
More pictures from the formal after the jump.
