So jumping between work, contract work, and packing up my belongings it’s time for an update on the Sydney Bloggers Meetup. With the last post gauging for an expression of interest, the response has been rather positive. Thus it is decided that the Sydney Bloggers Meetup will go ahead this Saturday, 26th September. The time and place will be the China Grand Restaurant (Level 3 Market City, Chinatown) at 1:30pm. I’m hoping that we can get a table around this time for yum cha as this is the best option that I can think of for a gathering. Of course other ideas are more than welcome.
So leave a comment in this post if you are a definite on turning up, and as well as any other guests that you may be bringing along, to this meetup so I can confirm the number of people to be sitting at the table. I will also send you my mobile details in case you need to contact me on the day. Also as a commemoration of this gathering I will have some items of mine that I will be giving away so look forward to that.
Oh and I almost forgot. We’ll be having a special guest coming all the way from Melbourne: Aya Kyunik of Moé Idolatry.

Being a blogger for something close to 3 years now I’ve made quite a few friends. Some locally and both internationally. But of course the Internet is just a means for us to communicate with each other and I would certainly like to meet the face behind the blog. Of course I’ve met quite a few people but having talked to some of you, you’ve also expressed interest in meeting other bloggers who have similar hobbies. So I have decided to call out to those who may be interested in having a Sydney Blogger’s meetup on the 26th September. This is only to gauge interest in seeing who would like to attend such a gathering. A requirement though is that you must have a blog that is currently active and blog about anime related items. If you are, please leave a comment on this post.
Oh and if you have suggestions for places to have a gathering, please let me know. And just as another note, the 26th is the same day as A Night in Fantasia. The meetup will be during the day so there won’t be too much of an issue since I’m also attending a A Night in Fantasia as well.
Usually on the 2nd day of any convention I’m usually more lazier to take photos. But for some strange reason I happened to have taken more photos than I normally would. I’m not sure why that is the case but I guess it would be the number of quality cosplays compared to previous years. Mind you I was also running off 4 hours of sleep so it was quite a feat. Hit the jump to check out more coverage of Day 2!

With most conventions, there is always a second day. And usually the second day is a pretty relaxing day with a less hectic crowd. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to attend the 2nd day but since I got a free weekend pass, I might as well make the most of it. So this time I went solo, no Roobar or Blox with me as they were pretty tired. Actually I was pretty tired as I finished the Part 2 post at 3 a.m! Anyway hit the jump to check out coverage of Day 2! WARNING: Picture intensive post.

One of the main events of any convention is the cosplay competition. It usually draws a pretty big crowd and gets most people excited, though for me I’m sort of getting to the point where the cosplay competition isn’t turning out all that great. Either way I still decided to head in and take photos as usual. So hit the jump to check out Saturday’s cosplay competition coverage. WARNING: Picture intensive post.

Its been somewhat of a long year for me this year being so busy with so many things but I do make time for this anime hobby of mine. And so with very little sleep in the past few days, I managed to make my way to Animania Sydney 2009, dragging friends Roobar and Blox with me. So hit the jump to check out photos for Saturday where I took a whopping amount compared to other conventions. WARNING: Picture intensive post.
