Break from Work

It's Monday, but I'm glad to be getting some rest today instead of being at work. Will be in vacation mode until Wednesday since it's officially the Silver Week holidays (a name I think they only recently came up with to match the other week long holiday here in Japan, Golden Week).

It's been a hectic two weeks of debugging with late nights. As such, I've been indulging myself with some stress buying over the past two weekends. I did however limit myself to low cost purchases.  ^_^ So budget is still intact... more or less.

Total damage of recent loots pictured above is just a bit over 4000yen. These include:
  • Revoltech Frauline Rin Tousaka,
  • Revoltech Frauline Nagato Yuki (to match my Frauline Haruhi),
  • A basic di:stage set (which I am now using with Haruhi, since I broke her stand)
  • Books 5 to 8 plus a Special of Ga-Rei manga (been waiting for this to turn-up in Book-Off, so I'm glad they finally did. Although I still don't have book 9)
  • Book 2 of The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi... although I don't have book 1. Lol!
Other than that, I've also been posting figurine pictures over at Figure.fm, a site for figurine lovers and collectors. It's a popular community for posting high resolution figurine pictures. ^^

Feel free to visit my recent posts and comment on them:
The first two posts are actually similar to the pics here in my blog. Although you might be interested to view them in higher resolution. v(^^

Ah, times like these, I wish I could buy a professional camera. I just use my 3-year old Canon IXY to snap those pics. It takes quite some time to get a decent shot.

In any case, I will most probably be posting all my figurine pics over at that site from now on. Will just place links here to them. Enjoy! :)
