Went to the anime store today and went to see if they had a decent (new) selection of Figmas. I searched and examined any figures that caught my attention and none really did. I made sure I didn’t miss anything so I looked behind a few figures also and acquired Figma Kanu and one of those Good Smile trading figures. I got Rin in one of her running with a dagger pose and is a pain to put together.

Well I decided to show my other Figma partners my other Figma to the club. Haruhi was annoyed at being one of those “innocent” types while Konata makes a eroge game comment. Kanu couldn’t wait out of the box….Oh and ya she is back to her normal self again after that “chilling” walk.
Well I got bored and decided to take the image of the little snow on the ground before it fully melts. I was about to go Figmaless but took Haruhi out since shes the easiest to pose with and my current fav figma. I was in a rush that I didn’t think about taking Haruhi’s spare parts since I only wanted to take pictures of the little snow around.
So I looked for a patch of snow that was similar to the November 18th, 2008 snowfall and heres a good example.
Well its October 31st and we all know what that means, Trick or Treat! Well I don’t have any Anime themed Halloween images or anime figures, but I do have a Guild Wars image though.
Well I see I was tardy with this blog, but I had catching up to do since I was in Europe. For starters I won a Petroglyph Mousepad which I’ll be adding to my collection. I collect Anime, Ferrari, and Petroglyph object so it goes into my collection well.
I gained the below item by entering myself into a Petroglyph Cave contest drawing. I drew this map. (Warning: Your eyes may bleed.)
Well I wanted to finally get my Figma Saber and I had enough for a Figma Miku so I headed to my local Anime store while I had the chance. Since I arrived on Sunday, September 21, 2008 I finally had the chance to go to the anime store, by bus. When I arrived I saw Figma Haruhi (already have), Figma Mikuru (I need), and Figma Yuki Nagato (Which I also need) on the rack.� I asked if there were anymore Figmas and the lady said yes, pointing to a recently new pile of figures that came in just today (Wednesday, September 24, 2008). I then checked which ones interested me and took two.
Well now that you got a summary of what I did in Europe I will now show you my Ferrari collection, Ferrari products on streets, and a Ferrari I saw on the street. There are 26 images to look through so there has to be something good to look at with something pleasing your eyes :).

A gift given to me when I arrived in Slovakia, Bratislava.
Well I was at my friends to see his new synth so I took the opportunity to take pictures, and to also improve my indoor shooting skills. I tried out his synth (Korg R3) and I must say its a kick ass synth. Too bad I couldn’t record what I played on it since the recording softwares had some issues with the keyboard .

So here are the the damn clouds that harassed Ottawa late July till August 11th messing up my bike trips. This weather front corrupted my already messed up sleeping habit making me stay awake even longer during the night (or waking me up early but sleeping later).
Well I did hint the date and mentioned it a few times on a gaming forum I moderated it. There are also people I told in detail where I am going on that day so I thought I put this here as well.
Yesterday the whole world was watching the Olympics, getting married, had new borns, and even created feasts to celebrate the day. I was watching the Olympic ceremony just like everybody else and looked outside and saw this rainbow.

More of these rainbows were spotted on the same day down in Southern Ontario after the on/off rain that has been happening since August started. I also zoomed into it but the image got darker and less satisfying.
Went to the anime store on July 28th to pick up anything of interest so I did, Haruhi Figma greeted me there. Thanks to Danny I had more of an interest in taking this then KOS-MOS from Xenosaga� Bome Figure. I picked up Haruhi Figma out of her pile an and took off waiting to see whats so special about Figmas, its their kick ass posing abilities. I even used her to help me and my friend win as the Slovaks in Euro 2008 for PS3. I placed Haruhi with her yellow cone infront of the TV and it made us thing of winning or suffer double defeat. Without her there we did slighty worse but with her there we did better, no goals against us.
I was looking at Rin (Fate/Stay Night) who is from a Bome figure collection. I don’t have a good picture of her for so I went to get a brush for her in my local Dollar Store so that I could later on. I, for some reason, headed through the toy section just to see what they have and I came across this silly Gundam toy from China. I was looking for the kitchen brushes but I just wanted to check out what they had.

Well with Spore being he next big game coming out I obviously joined the bandwagon this time for something hyped. I normally wait out on hyped games so I can get it for cheap and so I can enjoy the proper atmosphere of the game in an undisturbed manner. Anybody here got the Spore Creature Creator on the first day it was leaked? I did thanks to someone on the forums I go to for the Spore. This buddy hooked me up, I downloaded it, tried it out, created a creature, and then showed it off. I then went onto creating many other Spore Creatures just to see what I could create. I created ten creatures and will wait until the full game to create more.
Being both late and with crappy quality images, I will however post an entry on her just for the hell of it. I acquired her on Wednesday, May 18th, 2008 along with a AT-ST, a mini tank with WW2 planes for a board game, and some Eye of Judgment cards.
