Well well well, It has been a while. I have not posted in 2 weeks, so here I am posting one now.


Fremont Holiday Anime Faire

So I attended for the first time the yearly Fremont Anime Holiday Faire thru acquiring info from my BAAU friends. It was a really fun experience inside a small convention. But I was just concerned with the drawing workshop, so I was excited to learn some new things. I didn't expect the workshop comes with a free manga sketchpad and two different line widths of sakura micron pens and a sumo mech pencil, all for 5$ how awesome it that?

So Mr Ian and Miss Karen taught about not only dynamic poses, but the cause and effect dynamic posings of two stick figures, pretty interesting concept that I've never even thought about. There was also a plus when I discovered that this familiar guy across the room was Long Vo, a former Gaia Online Artist. I knew he looked familiar, but I didn't know where. His sketching abilities are quick and awesome, and I was able to ask for his autograph, he's a pretty nice person.

So around the convention, there were different workshops going on at the same time, like make your own Christmas card table, or make your own Christmas ornament for your Christmas Tree table, PMBQ merchandise, where I bought 2 awesome shirts from for a bargain price of 20$. The snack store had nice goodies, including cotton candy <3<3 Top Ramen, and beverages. There was also a Gaia Online store where they sold Gaia Online Merchandise, I was finally able to buy one of my things in the wishlist, to have my own Kiki Kitty plushie, waii!! so cute.

On the way back, I met Jill again from the previous BAUUBQ, and was nice enough to give me a ride to the station :) which was awesome of her (after eating at a Pho' for the first time).

All in all the Fremont Holiday Anime Faire was incredible, a really delightful event that had big things, for a small convention ^__^




Ragnarok Online 12.0 Patch Update

Aiyayayay! RO had just recently updated the game, and in this chapter of the stories in Midgard, Morroc City was devastated by a deadly explosion coming from the Morroc Palace, which people claim was the cause of Satan Morroc escaping from its thousand years of slumber buried under the Morroc Palace. Children lost their parents, merchants moved into the Pyramid map in makeshift tents, still trying to sell their wares, and people who are just damn affected by such trauma they have never experienced in their lives. Morroc City will never be the same again, with tens of buildings and houses totalled or partially destroyed, and the Kingdom of Rune-Midgard is in a state of panic. The Royal orders from Prontera's Castle, now that King Tristam III is no longer with them, try their best to send soldiers and willing volunteers to help restore back the former glory of a city that was once known for its awesome oasis, the City of Morroc. A sad story Indeed.

Together with this update was an implementation of the so-called BattleGrounds, where adventurers choose which Prince's side they help lend their powers in order to settle which prince will become the new king of the Marroll Kingdom. I haven't experienced the enjoyment of the game yet, however, observing my younger brother frantically playing BattleGrounds due to the incentive points and items of Valor and Bravery given to those who helped, seems to be exhilarating and exciting as well.



Office X-Mas Party

The party was just last night, and as usual, enjoyed all the free sushi I can acquire. Nothing much were very eventful just the usual, eat, play casino games and listen to music. It was very very chilly tho, and I still haven't recovered from my cold yet.


That's all so far. Since Christmas is nearby, I'm greeting everyone who checks out my blog every now and then, Merry Christmas and Happy new year!!
