What’s making me happy 18-06-2017

Visiting NorCal and Seattle area over the past 2 weeks, it’s been nice to visit some of my old friends. Those moments, although brief do warm my heart.

Took some time walking around Stanford. The Dish trail turned out to be a great walk.

Watched Hamilton in SF with my good friend Ben - it is indeed a great and very modern musical. Can highly recommend it.

Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle turned out to be a very unexpected gem. It’s a great collection of Music, Sci-Fi and other memorabilia. Their Guitar exhibition alone is worth it.

Visited Fremont Fair over the weekend - a very quirky Art fair with a nice vibe to it. Didn’t buy anything but it was nice to stroll around and take in the atmosphere.

New installment of Fire Emblem series is out with Fire Emblem: Echoes - already got a copy - can’t wait to play it!

Humble Bundle - Sekai Project is out. A bunch of great VN’s for a good price. There is a bit of filler there of course, but it’s worth it for the gems like WORLD END ECONOMiCA alone (same writer as Spice&Wolf).
