Update - 5 Things On The 5th (June 2018)

It's that time again -- for me to give my updates of five things I've done this past month. This month was a little bit more interesting to put together, as a lot of the things I've done are quieter, more like building toward something bigger. There are still things to report on, though!

  1. I took one of my best friends ever to Cedar Point. Despite being a HUGE roller coaster nerd, and even working at a park near his hometown, he had never been to the big CP. Even though it rained and we couldn't ride everything, the best part about it was watching him have fun. 
  2. I lost two pounds. This is actually kind of a big deal! It means all the walking that I started last month is really starting to pay off. My ultimate goal doesn't have anything to do with weight, though XD
  3. I'm finally taking initiative to take care of my health -- mental, physical, and spiritual. No need for details, just know it's going well and I'm not gonna die anytime soon.
  4. I've submitted and have been accepted for my idol persona to be in the Overseas Idol Database! I will let you all know when it is published.
  5. I still got to see the July 4th fireworks in an amazing way. I make a point of trying to see them every year, and this one did not disappoint. It might seem trivial, but it's still part of me living my life and being active.

Update: 5 Things On The 5th (August 2018)

Okay, so it's a couple of days late, but I was so stressed out last night that I actually got sick. It's a miracle in itself that I'm still awake. Regardless, here are my 5 things I did in the month of August! What's funny is that you probably know most of these already, because a lot of them happened at Matsuricon. I staffed my first anime convention! It was way less stressful than I thought it would be...despite the fact that my body and mind thought it was, LOL. I sang an Akiba Idol Emily song for the first and last time in front of a crowd! It was completely unexpected, but I'm glad I got to sing at least once before I retire the project for good and put my idol days behind me. (That's a whole 'nother story, but I got this.) I went to go see Teddyloid in concert at Matsuricon! I don't really go to concerts, and I really don't go to concerts or anything for Japanese acts. I'm too embarrassed to. But this was one exception I really wante...

#OkayEmily where is last month's post? You said you were gonna post one of these every month, you know? Yes, I know that, but last month was important in one very important way: 1: I lost one of my best friends. Have you ever known someone who never really said much, but was always just...there? Any time you needed anything important, they would help provide it, and then they would go back to their hiding spot? But they were always still around to hang with people. She was beautiful, and I'm not gonna go into too much detail. But it was through her that I met Mikkun, that I found the arcade that I did. It's very indirectly because of her and her best friend that I started to get myself back, finally. She gave me more than I could ever repay her for, and I think she knew that. I have to be certain that she did. No other message matters anymore. 2: I played an incredibly failed recital. Which I'm actually really okay with! You learn what works for you and you move o...

Update: 5 Things On The 5th (September 2018)

A little behind again with this, as I actually thought about it the day of -- and then proceeded to get slammed at work. That's how life goes sometimes. Anywho, this is my monthly list of 5 interesting things that happened, or 5 things I was able to accomplish in spite of my own busy schedule. When I look back ten years from now, I want to see all of the cool things that happened to me in this period of my life. I started posting spontaneous, spur-of-the-moment videos of myself playing piano on Instagram! You can follow them here. You don't have to, like, follow me or anything, but it's still something I'm kind of proud of. On that note, I really got into the hang of posting more J-Pop covers. The catch is that nobody knows where they are yet! They're out on the Internet somewhere (which means they're on SoundCloud) but only one person knows my username (Mikkun). I'm doing that on purpose. I want to sing, but I don't want to over-promote myself and b...
