I teased this on my Instagram account about a panel (or two) that I was working on for an “local con”. That local convention is Metrotham Con, Chattanooga’s newest multifandom convention!

This is a throwback post from December 2012 featuring Mai Kuraki (倉木麻衣). This a refresher for me after discovering her album again from a vendor several years ago at MTAC Omega, and getting lost in the Hallyu Wave. Returning to my J-Pop roots, I talked about what makes her different […]

2020 is known as the year without conventions or any events to attend due to COVID-19 concerns. A lot of well known conventions such as MomoCon, Anime Expo, and now soon to be Anime Weekend Atlanta are hosting digital events in lieu of their traditional physical conventions. Metrotham Con is […]

After concluding my playthrough of Shenmue I, I have chosen another game to play to revisit for those who may have missed out, or want to see another perspective of a playthrough.

This is another entry into a new series called “Interest Treasures”, where I highlight something that not many people know about within a fandom–that even the fandom doesn’t know about–within a geeky–or for the sake of this blog: an Otaku interest. The first entry in the tag, I highlighted a […]

I’m a sucker for music from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. But I also adore the music from Sega in general. I don’t know what it is about it that makes their music magical. It’s not a 90s thing, but the jonesing for even modern SEGA Sound Team sounds is […]

Back in May, I decided to treat myself to some really quick and easy Korean food from the comfort of my own home. Since traveling out of state is not idea right now due to COVID-19, I found a recipe for Egg Fried Rice.
