Toei park

Blog updated in 10 May 2020, while photos have been uploaded back in September 2018. Kept as draft for me to write anytime...

I think neither the past me nor the current me would expect me to write this post after another visit to Toei Park (FYI I went again during my winter trip to Kyoto back in December 2019 haha!)

But I'm so happy that once I decided to go back writing, I'm writing bout one of my favorite places on earth! Of course from here on too, I'll be writing about stuff I like! <3

Fake cigarette that came with the Hijikata style dessert 😎

Of course since I'm writing stuff from almost 2 years ago, I don't have exact memory of what day which date i went where but I'll keep my writing as precise as possible!

During my Kansai 2018 trip, I remember staying at Osaka but I went for day trip to Kyoto twice and this was the second one; simply to Toei Park!

This is where Toei Park is located at!

This is the back exit!

Posters of all the historical drama? Or probably just old TV series and movies!

As expected, very historical drama setting!

I was alone so can't photo ;w;

The white buildings are actually studios!

Moreeeeee

This was actually one of the attraction too but closed when I visit ;w;

Into the real attraction!

As a weeb, Japan = Ninja right? 😎

one of the dining area in the park!

This is where I got my Hijikata style dessert!

FYI, the park was promoting the second Gintama live action movie! Thus all the collaboration!

One purchase of food comes with free coaster!

What a luck that day; I got my bias' coaster by first purchase XD

Okay my first bias was actually Hijikata but I also really love Katsura. Then once Katsura's seiyuu become my top 5 fave seiyuu, guess who I like most in Gintama now 😂

Goods stores!

Models of Touran's swords! and more Gintama stuff!

I watched a historical play here!

The stage :D

These models are really used for shooting!!

We couldn't walk inside because there was a recording!

May be it's just the wide space and cleanliness but just being there, healed my heart XD

The two different style bridge for easy shooting!

More collaboration food menu XD

I tried out another Hijikata style menu; mayo rice. 

I mean fresh cream and pound cake like thingy XD

Red light district? ;)

There's a special building near the front entrance that is dedicated to Hibari Misora

Posters :D

I went to the samurai classroom (right side)

We were taught about how heavy samurai sword is, money box, how to make fire etc

Shinsengumi :D

Posters of the later movies by Toei!

Kamen Rider historyyyy and other tokusatsu by Toei

Kamen Rider area!!

From the very early one to later ones!

More tokusatsu!

Walk to my love Den-O!!!! <3

It was the year when Kamen Rider Heisei Generations Forever was released!

I joined one of the guided walking tour~!

The 'Shinsengumi' board can be changed to various other board for other movies!

The water's depth actually differ at each side!

The building used in Gintama for YOROZUYAAAA

Photo studio area :D

PRECUREEEE

So many figurines!

Car used in Gintama live action movie!

The other side of the exhibition building >w<

Standeeeees <3

Yay my 2 bias XD

Before leaving, I joined a sword practice performance!

That day I was pretty confident to volunteer myself for sword practice on stage!!

I kinda regret not giving my phone to one of the casts for recording but it was fun XD

I also received a small memo pad as novelty! XD

And after that I bought like 2 more and got Uraaaa <3

And it's time to say good bye

Not really, cause i really enjoyed my time and wanted to come again...though i didn't expect to return so early in less than 2 years XD

I'll still go on typing and working a lot to keep up with my postsssss :D

I'm coming back to Blogging and Twitter

My last update at vkanon.blogspot.com was October 2018, a post of what happened in August 2018

My last *official* Twitter update was October 2018, posting what I experienced in October 2018

May 9 2020, I've decided to go back to both pages

I think it'll be kinda weird to just updating those two ages right away without explanation haha

Not that i expect people to read but I think in a way i want self justification

This post probably will be longer than I expect (as usual LOL) but I'm going to clear whatever I have in my mind

My cosplay speed slowed down back in 2018? Partly because a good friend of mine who is a photographer isn't in Medan anymore

But it's not an excuse to stop blogging and twitting

Because gratefully, I do a lot of travelling (almost once every month!)

But my speed definitely go down in 2018, because I also don't do much YouTube update anymore

i lost my Cosplay page (WorldCosplay.. is it still around?)

In a way, I just lost feel to update those pages

But i still update my Facebook page and Instagram, even though I feel sad sometime that i don't have cosplay material, just mostly selfie

I don't really like to post private matter either (such as family photo etc) so it made me even harder to update

But I guess after talking to my partner, I realize why I still feel like keeping both Facebook and Instagram; there's direct interaction with people

The other factor is actually more personal w

Late 2018 I had private matter

Early 2019 I was getting ready to study in Japan

And in the rest of 2019 just getting myself used to life in Japan

I love blogging. I love writing

I actually not so interested in Twitter since there's word limit LOL Ok Twitter's style is just not V's

On a side note, I also love making video. I love talking. I love singing.

But at the end of the day, it's more like I wanna do it just when I wanna do it cause if there's no topic I can enthusiastically talk about, I no feel lol.

While song cover, sorry to say but I don't think I can come up with a quality that I'm satisfied with to publish (same with song choice!)

I'm using YouTube as my example as this week I just published something new.

I started part time job where I did simple voice recording and editing and it made me miss vlogging again

And the same feeling made me miss writing

Ok now I don't know where this post is going but a quick update since October 2018 and my plan until the end of May

• May 2020: ok I'm so late but now I have the will do revive my pages (YouTube Blog Twitter) when school is (supposedly) starting next month lol

I've recorded 2 videos for YouTube and of course a lot of material for Twitter and my Blog. Thus until the end of May, my aims are:

1. Twit what happened to me up till December 2018
2. New video in YouTube every weekend
3. Blog what happened to me up till March 2019

Today I'm just super motivated and energetic, when ironically I'm increasing my part time job from next week lol

I also have 3 (hopefully 4, I'm waiting for the other package ;-;) cosplan this month-----

But hopefully I get to update everything up to the current date before my birth month (September lol)

I realized that another reason I stopped was I guess I was kinda bored from the repetitive cycle

I don't know whether what I'm doing is right or whether my love or expression for certain thing is clear or not

Of course there's the "who cares what I do anyway. there are way better cosplayer / public figure worth checking out"

But I'm really so blessed and lucky that I have supportive family, friends, partner, seniors, teachers who think my "break time" is not my fault

So I wanna do my best doing what I like again, as a gratitude to them too!

i don't know whether I'm too late or not but my partner always tell me to 'just do'

Or else it won't be done

So I guess in a way i'm also grateful of the current "stay at home situation"

of course I'm not saying that I hope this condition goes on forever

but if I don't really get more time to do more remote stuff, probably I will never remember back what I love doing

Beside that, even though I don't blog anymore, I still do my monthly "syncing Dropbox and Photo gallery" and arrange the photos by month.

I think I don't really wanna just forget my pages. The me inside probably is just waiting for a day when I'll blog again.

Now now, a lot to be done.

Let's get started!
