Market Village

There's a redevelopment plan for Market Village and it's taking them quite awhile to go ahead with them. It's been years since they announced it with the redevelopment proposal and miniature model of the new building. I will miss the cute outer corners of the current Market Village building when the shopping centre gone.

Bloor Mango Shopping

I had the pleasure of going manga shopping with Ariana and Oie Lin last Friday. I almost found all of the old volumes of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles by Del Rey at BMV, Labyrinth, the Beguiling, and Anime Xtreme. I just need the last volume, which I plan to buy from eBay when I'm ready. Hope I can finish Paradise Kiss soon too.

Wish me luck!

Prepping the Decor

Summerween. If we're going to do this, we need to prepare for it beforehand like we do with Halloween.

Let's do this.

Since I don't want to attract Raccoons or any other local animals to my house, I will be using plastic for the watermelon pumpkins. Hopefully, the local party stores have freakishly round-like-watermelon plastic pumpkins in stock. Looking forward to painting these fake watermelons!

Instead of candy, I think I'll give out granola bars. I doubt anyone will ring my bell on June 22, but if a neighbor asks about the jack-o-melons, I will give them a granola bar.
