Now that school has officially started, summer is basically over……NOT really.
Aside from all the crazy fun I had this summer (FanimeCon, Anime Expo, my new computer, Electric Daisy Carnival, chilling with cousins, traveling to Taiwan and Japan) there are still a couple things to look forward too.
BlizzCon08 Badge
Ta-dahh~! BlizzCon 2008 pass! Provided graciously by my good friend John *Thanks John!*
BlizzCon08 is this coming Friday - Saturday (October 10-11). So I gotta get ready for a weekend of awesome Blizzard goodies, shows, concerts and of course, demos of the latest Blizzard games. If I am lucky, I’ll get to play Starcraft II this weekend. >_<
Now once BlizzCon is over I still got plenty to look forward too as well.
With November being a crazy launch month for games, (Gears of War 2, Wrath of the Lich King, Fallout 3, Call of Duty 5) I won't be bored either. I even took the effort to pre-order Gears of War 2: Limited Edition from Best Buy for that sweet sexy free Remote Controlled Centaur Tank!
Pre-Order Box for Gears of War 2 LE with Centuar Tank voucher
Woot woot! I’ve always wanted an R/C tank! Now I get one in the fashion of a Gears of War Centaur Tank!
Anyways, that is all the news for now. Still lazy and have not posted my crazy summer experience with LOADS of pictures of Japan and the likes. As soon as I find a batch of time to go through everything I will.
*Still need to fix up some old posts for my current blog as well :\ Pictures breaking frame boundaries.
Edit: Official name is now Hurricane Bear as we learned that Jacob Calle did not dress up to be ‘PedoBear’, but just a “bear”.
Taken from Dannychoo.com and YouTube, but due to it’s pure awesomeness it must be posted again…and again…
And a report from the Wall Street Journal:

Ben Casselman reports from Galveston, Texas.
Some flee a hurricane. Some hunker down. Some dress up as bears and dance along the shore. Well, one does, anyway.
Jacob Calle drove into Galveston from Houston to don a brown bear suit–complete with pink bow tie–and moonwalk in front of the massive waves crashing over the sea wall.
Mr. Calle, 27, is a filmmaker, and he arrived in Galveston with his own cameraman. But he quickly had plenty of other cameras trained on him, by both curious onlookers and members of the news media. Mr. Calle is apparently an experienced funny-suit wearer. He claims to have been a Chuck E. Cheese mouse at one of the chain’s restaurants earlier in his career.
So what’s the secret?
“If you’re feeling pretty dumb, you’re probably doing the right thing,” Mr. Calle said.
