CAN WE PRETEND THAT AIR-A-PLANES IN THE NI-EE-T...
(I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right no-o-ow. God, I heart you, Hayley Williams. OK—on to the post.)
I rarely talk about my dreams—let alone, I rarely remember them. Today is different, as I strongly and vividly saw myself riding on an airplane in my dreams last night. I don’t remember where I landed, but there were at least two takeoffs and two successful...

TOKYO OTAKU MODE: AN INSPIRING OTAKU STORY →
Remember when Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “I have a dream?”
The Japanese were listening. And so was this awesome and inspiring crew of Nippon natives. If you’re a fan of the pop and otherwise culture of Japan, definitely read this story. And get to work on your dreams.

COMING SOON: "I Am An Anime Game Show Host—And Not...
So…yeah. Dirty secret: I’m a game show host for anime conventions. The game is “Anime Trivia Trap,” based off a Mark Goodson cult classic from 1984 (the year of my birth! And now you know my age). I’m preparing a little ditty about this geeky gig I’ve been gigging since 2009—a dream come true yet far from complete. Full story coming soon, and yes, this program...

Truth be told, I’m not Aang whatsoever. But for one day, I played that airy, smiling cartoon character at a celebration this past Friday.

first post: the meaning of "Brent"

Welcome to my new blog! I haven’t blogged in AGES. I can probably count that high, just not now. The name of my new blog is called “visions from a steep hill.” You will be reading daily bits of interest and...
