Today is the first day of Lunar New Year. This year is a year of a Tiger. Roar Roar Roar. I hope everybody to have a great great new year with a lot of lucks, money, and good health. I wish everybody will be happy and live in peace. (no more drama)
I am so sorry for recently. I haven’t updated our blog or written anything. Recently, I am really really busy with the maid cafe, school, and work. I am trying to organize so many stuffs for the maid cafe. The AniMaid Cafe schedule is FULL. We have so many events that we will be announced soon. I can’t wait
OH YEAH – Vensy is designing a new web site for us. I did a little sneak peak. It was awesome….I can’t wait.
My goal this year is to make the maid cafe to be better and stronger.
I am lucky to be Asian because I can celebrate Two New Years.
Yep….Speed Racer is currently my favorite movie. Since….well….it came out! My best friend thinks I’m crazy because apparantly its a mass of crazy seizure inducing crap. I dont know about anyone but I LOVED it! Its like watching a cartoon with people in it! Speed Racer was the very first anime I saw I was 2. My mom used to put it on for me when I was little, that Gatchaman when it was G-force, and Astroboy. So I FLIPPED out when I saw that it was a live action movie.
The movie is sooo colorful and glorious, I call them joy seizures. Weeeee for christmas my wonderful Aino got me a mach 5 bowl which i use to put my cell phone in when im not using it, and my ringtone when she calls me is the classic speed racer theme so….it plays while in the mach 5 eee *geek moment*
I also have a few of the Hotwheels cars. Mach 4, Mach 5, Race wrecked Mach 5, Mach 6, Shooting star track and rally car *racer X’s car*, GRX, Ghost and the japanese guy’s car. Im currently looking for Taejo’s car. and i found them allll at the 99 cent store SCORE!
When I get married I want a Mach 5 cake…I’m serious because im such a HUGE goober that way hehehehe. So…yes *nod nod* When I get my white Yaris Ima get a big 5 decal on the back window and red seat covers….again because I’m a dork. so off to find Taejo’s car! Tell me if you find it! keyaaa

Oh! I don’t know if anyone had noticed but Congrats to the Animaid website for getting 20,000 hits! <3 BRAVO! And thank you to all our dear Goshujin-sama and Ojo-sama for always being supportive of your darling maids/hosts! We love you!
Arigato!
Why? Been busy with life. … But also I got an Xbox 360 for Christmas so I’ve been spending time with an old friend, Gaming.
Other stuff too, but nothing really worth talking about. Cons, road trips, watchin’ anime, etc. Other stuff coming up. Well ok, maybe some things are worth mentioning, but I guess I’ve just been busy. I’ll continue to post when time permits. I want to make sure I have enough time to accurately convey the things happening in my life.
Well I guess that’s the gist of this post. Been busy.
Happy New Year Everybody! Kchan is so sorry. Kchan always forgot to say “Happy New Year” to everybody. Every year, Kchan celebrate two New Year. It is more reasons for me to eat good food and enjoy more fun times. Kchan hasn’t gone to the Blog for so long. Kchan is a lazy bum – just sat at home and went to Facebook (bad Kchan).
Kchan’s New Year Revolution
1. Lose Weight – around 5 to 10 lbs by summer so I can wear swimsuit.
2. Reorganize the Maid Café
3. Starting a new business
4. Getting serious at school
5. Controlling Money
6. Going To Japan at the end of the year.
7. Watch 750+ episode of anime
Hallo hallo! Welcome everyone back from the holidays and most recently Anime Los Angeles (ALA)! Everyone had fun neh?
So Mikan haven’t really been updating, gomenasai! There seems to be so much to do lately neh~
Anywho, let us go in chronological order shall we?
Firstly, Christmas! I had a chance to spend lots of timewith my friends! This included Koto, Kai, Stae, Mio, and many many more ♥! This year we decided to do TWO secret santas.
Before celebration, Mikan spent morning and afternoon at Koto’s residence, sewing. Though I cannot say that I am a connoisseur, I do enjoy watching the day pass as I make bloomers and skirts. ;P
So we started our celebration with a family dinner at Souplantation. It was my second time at the restaurant! After the good ol’ jolly meal, we went back to Koto’s to exchange gifts! I was so happy when I got mine, put my friends in chokehold XD hee~
First secret santa gift! Got a baby sewing machine and gloomy doll! XD
Second secret santa gift! What could it be?! (yay finally something MELODY!)
It is a Betsey Johnson layering necklace! One of Mikan’s favorite brands [that I have no money for D:] (next to Juicy Couture, Marc Jacobs, and Chanel ;D).
And a gift from Kchan! It is Tupac Mashimaro! ;x heehee~
A Toki Doki phone charm! So cute neh~!
And this is how big my phone is now! Phone is inside golden owl pouch~
MINT CHOCOLATE~! Nom~
It was a very good Christmas! many gifts given that will be put to good use! (Almost done eating chocolate already heehee~!). I am thankful for having such a lovely group of friends…mucho love!

And all of a sudden, ALA came around! It was my first time at ALA, so I was very nervous. Kchan said there would be two panels, and knowing myself, I wanted to help as much as possible! So Mikan wore maid dress all days (no worries I washed in-between days) to promote/cosplay and for panels. Cosplay? Yes cosplay! Remember what Mikan said will be the cosplay? Mio from K-ON!
So how did Mikan do trying to do this cosplay?

Not too bad neh? Mikan was very very happy and surprised at results! Especially since I cut my hair myself! YESSSHH!!
What made it even better was that Koto, Emi, and Chiyo wanted to do K-ON cosplay with Mikan too! So we had one fun time cosplaying together!
Can goshujinsama and ojousama guess our characters? Hyuhyuhyu~
ALA is a lot more like a hanging-out convention. Very fun and enjoyable. Mikan met a lot of friend con-goers and photographers, and a few goshujinsamas from Facebook too! Thankies for saying hello!
Saturday panel was playing mini games, including JanKenPo, with the goshujinsamas and ojousamas! Everyone was very excited and rowdy, so it was very fun! Two hours went by really fast, so Mikan was a bit sad..
Sunday was the open Q&A panel. AniMaid Cafe talked about maid cafe culture in Japan, rules and regulations, and answered good questions. Mikan got slightly…tomatoed at one part, but let’s skip over that 
. We also got one lucky goshujinsama to dance with some of the maids to our “Mune Mune Kyun” dance. Good fun! After the panel, the extra time was spent for photos and epic Jenga matches. Ah..what a fun con!
Watch the video here: ALA10 Mune Mune Kyun
One of the best feelings for Mikan? Going to a con for the first time. What a feeling~♥
Next con? Hopefully a new one!
Hi hi everyone!
I have been feeling sick…my stomach hurts! Christmas is tomorrow..hope I will be ok by then nya?
So this piccu was taken before Mikan’s haircut. Yes, I got a haircut nya! I got a pair of scissors, and shnipped my own hair! Most of the maids and hosts have seen it already neh, but it shall be a (hopefully) pleasant shock for the goshujinsamas and ojousamas neh? Mikan’s goal?
Jangg~! *o* All I need is a guitar now~
Please don’t confuse my Mio cosplay with Mio! Though easily confused because both are uber cute neh? Hehehe~♥
Another great event occurred a few days ago! That’s right, Kchan’s birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ♥. We took over the Japanese grill Gaja, filling half the restaurant! Kchan so popular neh!!
I never realize how little things can be so pretty. While washing/cutting veggies for dinner one day, I realized that the stump looks like a flower! Here’s a pretty close-up:
Kirei~!
So this winter, Kai, Stae, Kaname, Mio, and I went snowboarding! I needed bindings, so Mikan bought a pair of white ones (oh so pretty!). It came with a square BORING stomp pad, so Mikan took the liberty to cut something cute on it, heheh~
It’s a bunny! :L
Before snowboarding, we all gots some food at Los Jilberto’s! This is one of my favorite Mexican food places mm hm! Stae and I shared their huge carne asada fries with a bunch of sauce!
It’s like a mountain!
Other than boarding, Mikan also got to spend lots of time with Koto sewing her SUPER SECRET THINGY. Finally finished. That means lots of num num with Koto neh!
Hooray for yummy sandwich and yakisoba! MMMMmmmmMMmm..
Well too tired to update more! But I wish everyone a
VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! 
I love Christmas. I said that already. But for me, this might be my favorite time of the year. It baffles me as to how people turn so negative at the sound of that stock Christmas music being played at every shopping center. “Oh did you heeeeaar? They’re plaaaaying Christmas music at the maaaaalll~! They’re trying to put me into a joooyful mood~.” How dare they!
I don’t get it. I really don’t. Me personally I love that music.
I mean, it’s not like that music is played any other time of the year. Only like 3 weeks out of the 52 or so weeks in a year. That’s it. And let’s say musically, you just don’t think they’re good songs. Are the songs they play, at the malls, the rest of the 49 weeks any better? I say no.
And it’s not just the music. I see people become so negative around this time of the year for different reasons.
You know what? Forget about all that. It’s all about the idea that comes along with the Season. It’s a time where people shouldn’t be selfish. It’s a time for people to show each other they care about one another.
Thankfully though, there are still people out there that get it. I mean, obviously, otherwise no one would put out any effort. I for one, am enjoying the Season
