A pre-preparation of rites

Like I mentioned in my post showing off the character sketches from my novel-in-progress, this Friday I will be presenting my Senior Honors Project at the Honors Project Interdisciplinary Conference. We got the official email with the final schedule brochure and everything. It's happening. Not only is it happening, it's coming up at full speed. …

On Fandango and Vive

I've been vaguely hyping this up for a while, so I'm excited to finally talk about it. A few weeks ago I had a lovely conversation Paul Yanover, the President of Fandango. I put together a Spotlight all about his career path from being a software-writing USC graduate to heading one of the largest names in …

The hero Gotham deserves

"God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him... There has never been a greater deed; and whosoever shall be born after us — for the sake of this deed he shall be part of a higher history than all history hitherto." — Abraham Miyamoto, 193 B.C. Feh — Legendary Owl Feh's Talons …

Chaos in flight in Fire Emblem Heroes

In times long abandoned, the Goddess of Dawn split her being in twine. She feared her strength after nearly flooding the planet to prevent war between her creations. Out of that split came a Goddess of Chaos, the manifestation of shed emotions, and a Goddess of Order, who believed life could only be perfect if …

Pay your Copy Editors

As of tonight, I break away from classes to celebrate Spring Break 2019. It promises to be more of a workation this year. Not to say that I've ever been the hard partying Spring Breakers type in the first place, but I usually chill when I can. However, 2019 is throwing all that out the …

Let’s all go to Munchkinland

Welcome to "I put this off until late and decided to scrounge something together based on semi-recent activities as a last ditch effort" blog post #1738. Trademarked. Last night I spent St. Patrick's Day in Fullerton celebrating with my friend Mimi and a few of her people. Even dragged my friend Juan out there with …

Jason plays the Pokémon Trading Card Game

Time to say good-bye to the last strands of my dignity. I'm sure it's no secret that I love Pokémon, as I spent months building up to Pokémon Sun and Moon on this blog when it was announced. However, I haven't spent too much time talking about the Trading Card Game. Which is strange considering …

International Entertainment

It's never a bad day when you get home at 3:00 p.m. Especially when there's enough of an endorphin rush from getting a solid grade on that Sensation and Perception research paper rough draft to counteract the dejection of finding out thefinal exam won't be curved like the midterms were. I'm not at all bitter …

What does that song sound like?

Everyone's had those moments where they hear a song — be it in the background of a T.V. show, on the radio or a restaurant backing track, or whatever it may be — and can't quite put their finger on what that song is. If you haven't had that moment because you have a photographic …

Printers, Posters and Posh Interior Design

I know I said essentially the exact same thing about two days ago, but pardon me if this post is a little bit short or discombobulated. We may not have been sniffing paint fumes this time around, but the family has been off on a nearly 12-hour journey across L.A. County doing chores and such. …
