I am a cosplayer, martial artist (Kendo, Muso Shinden Ryu Iaido, Jodo), and gamer who enjoys cooking, anime, and foreign languages.
I had a bit of wanderlust while in California, so I went to Tijuana for a few hours until my plane left. Time will spent!

Assassin's Creed: Shadows greeted me when I got home yesterday. I'm really impressed by all the extras that came with it! I've only played the game for about 1.5 hours, but I'm enjoying it so far.

As an older millennial, I can appreciate the technological advances that has brought more to gaming than I could gave ever imagined as a kid. But one thing I miss is the ability to play a game immediately upon purchase without installing on console.

I got to practice with the Orlando Kendo Club while on a work trip last week. I had a ton of fun and learned a lot about myself while practicing with new people.

I think I was just showing my wife that I finished washing the sheets and stuff in my usual, ridiculous ways.

I'm finally posting photos from the Chicago #steampunk Exposition, where I wrote my Steampunk character costume, #victorian Burger King villain and something for the Goblin Ball. I had a great time seeing fellow punks from different areas of the country!

One of my favorite game series as a kid was #megaman. Over the weekend, I marathoned all 6 games for a great #nostalgia trip. I miss being a kid!

#blackfaeday was earlier this month and I couldn't be happier! The weather was great and meeting everyone again was an awesome time! Here's my #fae #cosplay based on the purple Iris.

My friends and I did a Little Red Riding Hood group, where I played the #wolf character. Of course, I had to spice things up a bit!

I...have my work cut out for me. And I'm sure there's more that I might but before I get through this. Can't trust streaming anymore!

An oldie, but goodie from when I dressed as #aqualad / #kaldur'ahm. This was towards the beginning of my #cosplay journey, so it's in a huge need for an update.

That time I went to #kroger and had to go through multiple doors to find the drink I was looking for.

Once genre that I'm into is #steampunk, which encouraged people to make their own characters and personas. I made mine based on #yasuke, the African #samurai from the 1600s.

I've done various iterations of #blackpanther or #tchalla over the years. I need to do an update on some of these!

Any fans of Castlevania Nocturne? #olrox is one of my favorite characters from the show, so I cosplayed as him.
