[blog] Dear J

No, Uncle Johnny. This is not for you. But you are free to read it. Douzou. Dear J, I will try to keep this short because I don’t believe in prolonging anything, unlike you. When are you going to address the rumors about you dating and getting married soon? The Japanese tabloids have been putting…

[blog] three’s a charm: the fangirl list

So apparently, it’s my third year on wordpress though I started blogging on Blogger in 2001 and moved to vox until it closed down.

#fangirlproblems #3

  Nobody told me that to be a fangirl, you have to be IT-savvy and occasionally do some hacking. Not to mention figuring out a foreign language in the absence of a “download” icon and don’t get me started on the gazillion of software and missing codex I have to download too. You see, it’s…

[blog] from fan to anti-fan

I’m a Virgo. Typically loyal. It may take me time to warm up but once I’m there, I’m there all the way. Until I have reason to leave. That’s how I am with friends, my job, and life in general, including, yes, fangirling. Of course there are instances when the interest wanes but I’d forever…

[drama] FIRST CLASS… first impressions

The news…
