Update Blog for 03/08/16


Hi all,

I don't know who actually reads this blog, but I think for the sake of tracking my progress, I wanted to make known what's actually going on with this site. For awhile the site was left inactive. I was focusing more on the club that my friend and I had formed here in San Diego, the San Diego Gunpla group. If you haven't checked it out please do! If you're a native of San Diego or currently reside in San Diego please come and say hello!

As a result, I spent a lot more of my time interacting with the real world, and less with the world on the net. It has its perks but it also has its definite drawbacks. For anyone in the anime community, you know that a good portion of your interactions are online. When you take the online aspect away, then you kind lose a little bit of that sense of community.

After being away from the scene for so long, this year I decided to get back into the world of the internet. First, I wanted to see if I could make something that I had thought of come true - I wanted to create a comprehensive database of the Gundam Products that had come out with reliable reviews (or at least what I had considered as reliable) for people to reference.

I had a lot of trouble finding a way to create the information tree. By the time I knew it, I was able to create the Iron Blooded Orphans line of products, but it had taken so much time and effort that I felt too burnt out to continue the project.

So what kind of content will be replacing it then? I'm not even quite sure of that myself. At the moment I've been trying to see if I can get back into studying. As I've been growing older, I've noticed that I have been getting lazier and lazier. I just don't have the same kind of zeal that I had as a kid trying to be the best.

And so, if I wanted to get that back, I figured that the first step is to start studying. Since I couldn't think of a single topic to study, I decided to do a list of them. So here's the list.


  1. History
  2. Math 
  3. Science
  4. Art
  5. Music 
  6. Theology 
  7. English 
  8. PE 
  9. Language
  10. Careers


Don't be alarmed by PE (physical education) on the list. This blog isn't going to turn out into one of those fitness blogs, And I will definitely try to talk about some of the other new and exciting things coming out for 2017. Ah man, there's so much to dive into. Iron Blooded Orphans is finally wrapping up. Too bad that the show is starting to pick up right when things are starting to end. Yu-Gi-Oh! Just released their new Link Summoning mechanic. And you can't forget about all that Dragon Ball Super news! I've been watching the new episodes with the gf and they've been great!

Personally, I'm excited to start posting more content. I'm starting to see the appeal of using a blog. Its a good way to talk about your hobbies and form your thoughts into something tangible that people can understand. Not to mention that its a good way to express all your excitement for new products and toys without freaking out your coworkers... XD.

Until next time.
