Hello everyone!
What can I say. I am a thirtysomething cosplayer who enjoys making costumes and going to cons. I work as a website administrator for theOtaku.com. I write reviews for FUNimation, ADV, Bandai, Viz and Central Park Media. I've also done transcription work for Harmony Gold. Anime is pretty much my life.
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis which makes working on costumes, at times, very difficult. Each year that passes I find I cannot do as much as the year before. Which sucks, but I don't let it get me down. By trade I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant who worked in vet med until I could no longer work. I miss working with the animals but I still have my critters at home to keep me company.
My immediate family consists of my husband and our 2 dogs and 2 cats. Due to my poor health and the medications I must take we do not have any children.
The main conventions I attend every year are: Sakura-con in Washington, Kumoricon in Oregon and Anime Expo in California
You can also find me on theOtaku.com (of course!) under the user name
Panda and on Cosplay.com under
Panda-chan.
I really love giant pandas, they are uber cute and cuddly! I suppose that is about it. Feel free to add me as a friend and thanks for reading all of my ramblings!
