Mind Speaks press!

Life has been a tad busy, mainly freelancing for my friend’s restaurant, my sister is engaged so I am working on her invites, work and now my kid has started day care. She is in the early toddler preschool and it has only been 5 months and already she picked up lots of words, started to “use” the toilet and started to do art projects! It’s adorable but also emotional because she is totally a kid now, no longer a baby!!! More about that later, I wanted to let you guys know our Usagi event has been featured on some cool blogs!

Megan from A Geeky Gal posted about our event on her post over here. She also won and posted an unbagging video about our Usagi bag over here!! Check out her new youtube channel!!!

Hannah also posted an interview with me last week on Ruby Wings over here! Her blog is really cool, she has done so many interesting interviews with other geek ladies!


The lovely Spokhette over at Nerdette at Large over here~!! I’ve been a follower of her blog and instagram for a few years now so I was really excited to answer her interview.

Super awesome bloggers, I am really honored that people liked the Usagi event we threw!!!!! Maybe we can do another event when things calm down a bit. I hope you guys had a wonder holiday and new year. I need to work on my year in review post soon.

What was your first fandom? (Or what was the first thing you obsessed over?)

As a young kid, I was super into Disney Barbie Dolls. Also, in 3rd grade I got to watch a marathon of dubbed Sailor Moon episodes hosted by an actress dressed as Sailor Moon. That really made me obsessed with the show!!

Who is your favorite fictional character?
Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter!

What is something you love about your favorite fandom?
I have tons of fandoms! Comics, pokemon, visual kei, Sailor Moon, Star Wars, Broadway Musicals…..the list goes on! One thing they all have in common is that I love meeting people with similar interests. In short – other fellow fans!

What is something you hate about your favorite fandom?
Sometimes….the negative fans. Especially fellow Star Wars fans.

Are you a fan of something that doesn’t seem to be that popular?
Oh, I don’t know…Visual Kei (jrock) music has died down alot in the West. It used to be Monster Hunter but now many people are fans thanks to Monster Hunter World!

I play Monster Hunter all the time!!! I still play lots of Animal Crossing. I read Spider Gwen comics often!!

Does the Magic Kingdom count?!

Japan! I would also love to go to Universal in Japan just to enjoy all the Monster Hunter stuff!

Usagi Bash and giveaway!

We did it! We had our first meet up – a small group of magical boys and girls came and it was awesome! We hosted it at my friend’s restaurant – it is a quick service restaurant. Think Chiplote but with bánh mì or vermicelli bowls!

We had bingo, coloring pages, fun photo props (scout wands), a little station to make your own cork jewelry using sailor scout rubber stamps that my husband craved out by hand!!! He helped me so much prepping for this event. He helped me screen print all the goody bags and those amazing rubber stamps! So a huge thank you to him!!!!

We also gave away some goody bags, cookies and other prizes, like stickers and buttons! Everyone went home with something.

Now for a giveaway!! We are giving away one of these goody bags we have! Contest ends on 8/8/2018!!! Hope you guys enter! For more info/pics – check out our craft blog: Mind-Speaks!
