NaNoWriMo is short for National Novel Writing Month. During the month of November, writers convene on their laptops and notebooks and attempt to push out 50,000 words in a single month.

This past weekend I purchased a Nikon D3300 camera. I wanted a camera where I could play with aperture and shutter speed for a while, and with my upcoming Big Trip, I figured now was as good a time as any. I went out and about with a friend the day after I purchased my…

Anime Central (ACen) is the third largest anime convention in the United States. It is hosted in Rosemont, IL, one L-stop away from O’hare Airport. Rosemont is a shopping hub with a fashion outlet mall and various other unexplored-by-me areas within a few miles of each other. The Donald E. Stephenson Convention Center and Hyatt…

Anime Central is this weekend! This will be my first time attending, and I am super excited. In preparation, I decided to exclusively watch anime the month and a half prior. Here is a list of all the shows I watched and a super-brief impression on each. Longer discussions about each will come out when I…

Okay kids, here is the deal. I am wrapped up in Busy Grown Up Stuff involving My Future and Potential International Travel so I am going to give my brain a break and do something fairly easy: a blogging challenge. Wherein I write a post of ambiguous length every day for thirty days to entertain…
