Tokyo Street: 1st Anniversary Celebration
Finally I have some time off for myself today. Things been such a whack of late I find myself drained on most days (,TAT,) So after my final(thankfully, something settled) class today, I decided to drop by Pavilion KL to check out the 'Good Goods Japan' expo and Summer Festival organized in conjunction with the Tokyo Street 1st Anniversary celebration between 23rd till 29th July 2012.
Got to know about this event via ViVi magazine and decided I must really check it out. I'm a sucker for all things Japanese-related.
Anyway, was anticipating a livelier crowd but the place was somewhat the opposite probably because it isn't the weekend and most of the major events like the Tokyo Fashion Fiesta featuring a number of Japan fashion brands, Cosplay Fashion Showcase and even the special appearance of Ena Matsumoto are scheduled to be on this weekend :S
Gahhh!! That'll means I'll be missing out on the fashion showcase which will be held tomorrow... (>x<) Too lazy to make another trip there...
Anyway, they've got some really prettystreamers a.k.a. fukinagashi and folded origami cranes up for the Tanabata Festival. Photos below:

They're so pretty!! Making a mental note to make small fukunagashi and cranes for next year's Tanabata Festival and put it in the house. LOL.
Oooh~! And I found a stall selling Mille Crepes cake at Tokyo Street ♥ Here's some of the Mille Crepes from Arthur's

Got myself a slice of the original classic one for a 10%(yayy!) off its price. Promo's ending this weekend.

Was actually really tempted to try the Nama Roll and ichigo mochi from The Loaf but decided I shouldn't be too greedy since there isn't anyone to share them with (,T^T,)
Oh well, there's still a box of chocolates in the fridge anyway (>v<)/ Plus, I'll get to try some really awesome burger this weekend. An acquaintance of mine just opened a burger shop in Seapark in P.J. around 3 weeks ago and I'll be going there with my other friends to try them out. So can't wait 'cuz I heard they've sold out on most nights!
Will keep you posted about more stuff soon. Meanwhile, I'll just drop dead here and now. I'm beat! ,(XvX)/~~ Chao~

AFA MY '12
Feels like ages since I last blogged! Been caught up with work and horrible traffic I spent most time after work sleeping off the weariness from driving. Traffic's so bad a 25 minutes drive can stretched up to an hour! Gosh...
Anyway, here's what I've been up last weekend~
Attended Anime Festival Asia Malaysia at PWTC onday 2 of the event! My first anime event after finals! Been missing out on a whole lot others in the past 2 months (T^T) So here's photos from the event. There aren't much photos since I left early that day since I was feeling unwell and I also filtered out some photos which are too blurry...

Moekana deck on display!
Definitely can't miss out the cosplayers! Just a handful of photos here tho... too lazy to upload all...
This one's taken at the stage area. Couldn't take much photos since it was too dark (>A<)
Was at the hall watching the performances for the Regional Cosplay Competition. Gave up on taking photos since the quality isn't good and just lie back to enjoy the show. Great stuff!
Hung out at the Malaysia Vocaloid Party booth~ Supporting my M.V.P. buddies who's making their debut appearance at AFA MY '12!
Was resting and helping out at the MVP booth when suddenly the crowd lining up to go into the cafes went wild. Didn't take long to guess what's all the ruckus about. Kaname was there!! So glad I'm like fun size I could squeeze in to see him though on tip toes(>v</)♥
Best shot I could get of Kaname but it's still a lil' shaky... I've got one shot where Kaname was looking directly into the camera but it was just too shaky with the crowd pushing and everything. What a waste. Sadness to the max... (,TAT,)
