Even an Otaku has to clean up from time to time. I usually make a point of regularly throwing out the stuff I dont want so that I can find the stuff I do want. Sometimes I come across stuff that I'm not sure I need and end up putting it aside. Yesterday was the day where I threw the stuff away that I put aside and hadn't touched for months.
Nenmatsu Oo Souji (年末大掃除(ねんまつおおそうじ)) is the end of year event that most Japanese folk participate in - its the "clean-out-the-house-o-crap" / "wipe-skid-marks-from-the-ceiling" / "ah-I-found-a-mouldy-maggotty-piece-of-bread-under-the-pillow" / "aha-thats-where-we-put-the-dog. but-its-dead-now..." time of year where its out with the old and off to a fresh new start for the new year.
In midst of Cleaning out the living room which usually looks like this. When on earth will wo/mankind stop using wires? (including electrical wires)
Cleaning out the wires on the 3rd floor which normally resembles something like this.
And then its time to deal with the books and brochures from events etc.
This is the last post for 2006 (Comike coverage tomorrow) and I thought I would take this opportunity to say a humungous thank you to all of you. Thanks to everyone who was with me this time last year and thanks to all those who joined this year - expect more Gundams, figurines, event coverage, trooping, idols and Japanism news in 2007 ^o^/
