Angels in Disguise

Well. Here I am once again. If I were to believe that I'll actually be sticking to a constant update schedule, I'll be updating on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. I should be able to update more often, considering how I'm already on break off of school for the entire year (but then again, I'm inconsistent when it comes to these things). I've also done a fair number of playlists, so I might post them gradually. For now, I'll be posting what has happened in the past few months.

Anyways, for the first story:

On the 23rd of August, I went with my friend (Gellie) to a toy convention. The convention mostly consisted of stuff like Pop! Vinyl figures, comic books, vintage video games, fandom merchandise, and a hell lot more. It was basically this event filled with everything I'd want to have in my room.

On the day of the convention, Gellie and I had to use our phones in order to search where we're going (we never really went to the area where the convention was, so it was our first time there). The trip going there took a while, consisting of screaming and yelling close to a highway, and getting tempted to roll down grassy hills, but we eventually got to the venue.

Compared to the past conventions I went to, the event wasn't as big, but I thought that it was better that way. The times I went to ComiCon, Supanova, and similar events, I tend to have my claustrophobia and anxiety act up due to the huge crowds. But because this event wasn't as well-known (I only found out about it the day before the actual event, and it was located fairly far from the main city), 

During our time there, we spent about two hours just walking around the area and the last thirty minutes of the convention actually buying what we want (we were checking out the prices as well, comparing the prices of similar merchandise from each stall). It was actually really enjoyable, and by the end of the day, my backpack was filled with comic books I bought while Gellie had a giant bag filled with Pop! Vinyl figurines.

(yeah, it was sort of an overkill)

When I got home, I was pretty guilty for spending a lot on the comic books (believe it or not). But then my parents told me it was my choice - I've never really spent my money on things for myself (like stuff I would actually enjoy), and supposedly it's just one of those "live in the moment to make memories" kind of things. And now, I have a stack of comic books in my room that I'm actually really content with. As tacky as it may seem, it's not only the idea of owning them or being able to read them that makes me happy, but it's also a reminder of the good time I had with a good friend.

Since I'm on break, I've also had time to read the books I've never really been able to read during school days. For today, I would like to recommend Steppenwolf by Herman Hesse, which I actually found very interesting. And for the song, it would be Nice Piece of Art by FM Static, the group being one of my favourites back in primary school (still having a soft spot for them up until now). In addition, I've also been thinking of changing the appearance of the blog in terms of graphics and whatnot (since I've also been doing some Photoshop work), but we'll see. Hope you're all having a nice day and I'll (hopefully) update soon!
