[Koikatsu] Singing for the Holidays

Normally, I don't post Koikatsu content on this blog, but I'll put this as an exception. This is something I made to celebrate the holiday season, and I'm satisfied on how it turned out.

Current Status as of 8-12-21

 I've been doing a lot of binge watching on a lot of old and current movies on HBO Max and Peacock. I've watched episodes of South Park, Regular Show, and Batman: The Animated Series. I also saw a couple of movies including: Space Jam 2, Fast & Furious, The Matrix, and The Suicide Squad. Hope I can get into other streaming services someday, like Netflix and Paramount+.

 My birthday is coming up, and thanks to my sister, she gave me tickets to see Green Day and Fall Out Boy live at Oracle Park! The last time I've been in a concert was at the Bluegrass Festival in Golden Gate Park. I wasn't familiar with some of the groups that performed, but I bet that this concert will be worth her money spent since these are the bands that I grew up listening to plus a special guest. So shout outs to my sister for giving me concert tickets!

Overall, this month is going to be the greatest month for me with some of the special events going on, and I hope I can have an awesome time before I can actually go back to my regular life once I get a call from my manager to see if I can go back to work.

Summer is Here

 The season of hot weather and beaches has finally arrived! With the pandemic slowly coming to an end, businesses finally reopening in some places, and the Olympics happening after a delay, I bet this Summer will be a safe, but fun one with a lot of people getting fully vaccinated. As for me, I've got my vaccination and will finally go out more often to burn all that fat from when the pandemic hit, although I may need to wear a mask for those around me.

Neptunia Virtual Stars - Ten Tribute

 As a tribute to one of my favorite Pearl Jam albums of all time and its 30th anniversary, I've made a parody of the album cover featuring Gamindustri's CPUs and Faira.

No More Fry's Electronics

Fry's website in its final days

 It's sad to see another electronic retailer go out of business after decades of activity. I remember my first time going to one of their stores in San Jose with my family, and it felt like paradise. It had a lot of stuff a tech geek would want such as: computer parts, TVs, home theater equipment, video games, and other electronic needs. What they also had was movies, TV products, toys, magazines, and even porn!

 There were two locations that I know were in San Jose, one had an Aztec theme, while the other had an old west theme. Both stores sold the same products, but the Aztec themed Fry's felt larger to me. I also remember one of the locations having a cafe where they sold some hot food and snacks, but I never had the chance to try them.

 Going there years later, and it felt like a ghost town with nearly empty shelves of unsold products. It just didn't feel right even after going there several years ago, it's like they couldn't keep up with competing retailers and want to call it quits.

 Fry's may have been the "Electronic Paradise" for tech geeks and people who can't find what they're looking for since they first opened their first stores, but their legacy will live on in our hearts!
