Back from AX '09

Hey all, back from Anime Expo 2009 at the L.A. Convention Center over the July 4th weekend. It was pretty fun, the weather in L.A. was amazing.

The convention was cool, nothing too specific or special I really did. We mostly just walked around, looked at things, bought stuff, got free junk and took pictures. I went with 6 other people, all stuck in the same hotel room. That was fun lol. I didn't take as many pictures as I could have or as many as I did last year.

Those are some of the pictures I took, I uploaded them on Facebook and I don't want to re-upload them here xD. And yes Angel I got your fan LOL.

Thanks

Long time no see (again) and AX '09

Hello there,

I realize I haven't been on here in AGES. I still follow video games, but I spend most of my time over at Giantbomb.com, it's a great website and everyone who likes games should check it out.

So I'm in the summer after my first year as a college student. It's been a very interesting and confusing trip. I'm really enjoying my time in college thus far, much better than high school in my opinion. I've joined CKI (Circle K International) the college counterpart of KEY club in high school. I've also taken up table tennis as an active hobby of mine, and I plan on joining the table tennis club when I start again next semester. I'm having a lot of fun, which is great.

Now, in a few days I'll be heading to LA for Anime Expo over the July 4th weekend. It's funny because my last blog post here was for AX last year. I'm going to be going for my 2nd year now and I'm looking forward to it. It should be a mess of fun and I'll be sure to post pictures and describe the adventure when I get back. (Even though there will most likely be no one reading this.)

Thanks!!

~Anthony

Back from AX '08

Hey! Well I'm back from LA and the Anime Expo! It was really cool, I had a great time. I was situated at my friend's brother's apartment across the street from little Tokyo, which was awesome. The convention was four days long and we went to all four days.

The convention was freakin' HUGE, there was over 25,000 people attending the expo. There was lines for EVERYTHING. We saw a mess of cosplayers; some were really really good, and some not so good. Well it's safe to say we saw some rather interesting people at the convention

Hmm what else? Well I got an autograph from the man who voiced Snake in the Metal Gear series: David Hayter!! The line was ridiculous, but we got up pretty early to wait in line. Two years ago, at Anime Vegas '06 I also got an autograph of the man who voiced Raiden from Metal Gear Solid. So now I have the signatures of both of the leading characters in MGS!!!
