Okairinasai Ojou-sama!
Training to be a butler because I'm planning to sign up for the next AFA's butler cafe, if there is one.
Good evening everyone, here's another fabulous post by me.
I know my posts have not been consistent, but I promise to TRY to be consistent from this post on.
Okay first, I am going to talk about Anime Festival Asia X, which was held on the 12th to the 14th of November. Its a long past due post I was supposed to do. Two weeks late, sorry.
Me infront of the Maid Cafe.I went to AFAX on the last day, 14th November, which is also the most happening day. Celebrities like SCANDAL, May'n, Kaname, Aira, Angela were there. My friend went crazy when SCANDAL appeared to judge the finals of the Anime Song competition.
The cameras were pointing at SCANDAL more than the contestants.
The irony.
That's SCANDAL there, and Tomomi is looking in the camera!There were other stuff there too, like the Moe Moe Kyun Maid Cafe! Ahhh, when I entered, it was like heaven! Girls all around you, serving you, blessing your food before you dig in! I wish I could bring one home!
Of course, there was a Royal Aletier Butler Cafe. Never went in there. Guys weren't good-looking either.
We had to pay $5 for a picture with a maid. Heres me and Hao Jian with a maid named Riiyo.In every conventions like these, there's always cosplayers and there were cosplayer. They were everywhere. They were at the center of attraction with camera flashes surrounding them.
Cute cosplayer there. I want to bring her back with me.
Cosplayer of Mio from the anime K-On!, her costume was really good.
It would be cooler if she had a bass guitar with her.
Then there was the I Love Anisong Concert. A concert where the Japanese artists performed. According to my pal, it was fantastic! Over 3 hours of ROCK!
It was a shame I couldn't attend, the ticket price were really costly.
There were other events and booths. The booths sold anime figurines, merchandise, showcases, art displays, anything anime! The events were like cosplay contests, oh you know, stuff like that.
Me and my pal Hao Jian fooling around with me as a Neko!I really want to try out for their butler cafe. Make girls drool over me, just kidding! Haha! AFAX was fun, I will go for next year's festival. Too bad they didn't have Japanese food there. Probably because it wasn't a cultural festival
AFAX was great, anybody wanna come along with me next year?!
All good things must come to an end. We really enjoyed ourselves

Recently, been doing alot of mountain biking.
It's good exercize, all those cycling uphill and downhill. Thrashing through dirt, splashing through mud, pedalling over rocks.
It really pushes you to the limits, and surpasses it.
Me doing an epic corner!
Pedal, pedal, pedal.Another thing I like about mountain biking is that, eventhough we're cycling through nature, we still respect it. We make sure we are always on existing tracks, not going off them, or creating new ones. It is so that we don't damage what's natural.
You're so close to nature when you're mountain biking. It's like, plants are your best friend. Lying on grass isn't a problem. Honestly, I don't think you'd lie on the grass that's surrounding the HDB flats.
Me checking out this weird fruit.
We thought it was a cucumber, until it turned red!
Chilli?
There's also the thrill of overcoming obstacles and thrashing through it.

Zulfaqqar, Najib and Me surveying the trail and obstacles from a hill.
Cycling is also a great way to bond with friends, and make new friends. In between cycling through trails, we sit down amongst nature and just relax and catch up.
Me and my buddy Akid.Ah it's great...
Still got more to learn about bikes, taking it slow. Exams are coming up, probably wont bike so much until after it.
Checking out my leg muscles.That's all for now I guess. Got nothing more to say.
Goodnight everyone, beg for more.
