This is a super late update when I promised two months ago that I plan to update this blog more often. I am so sorry for having neglected my blogging duties, but I am (hopefully and will try my best) back and will keep this updated since I have a lot of stuff to blog about (reviews, personal stuff and the like). I am so disappointed with my 3-month hiatus because there were a lot of good movies, places to review. Unfortunately, I was piled up with work and other non-work related stuff. But I promised myself in my recently finished birthday that I have to “fix my life” and put things in order. So here I am, updating you.
First of, this blog is doing an upgrade. If you have noticed, the URL has been changed to “http://hainrihisdiscoveries.blogspot.com/”! *happiness* I have wanted to change the “ecyang” blogger name and now it’s done. J I also changed the email to hainrihisdiscoveries@gmail.com, so you can email me there for concerns or anything you have in mind.
Then there is the FB profile badge below my Blogger profile, which I created specifically for this blog. I also made that so only close friends and few relatives can read my blog as I don’t want other family members and relatives reading some of my stuff here. While the blog is public and there are other people who will read it, at least I can still keep it away---with the separate FB profile---from some nosy relatives who just blab what they feel without thinking. Oh I think you know what I mean, because I am at loss for words in explaining hahaha XD
Anyway, some further updates:
Shameless plugging here.

As you can see, it’s been a long time since I blogged here. The past weeks have been hectic and, for some odd reason, I’m having a hard time organizing stuff. I’m usually an organized person, thus the reason why I have an organizer. But for the month of May, everything is like a whirlwind and I don’t know how to organize things.
Aside from work, my bf and I have been busy with cosplay. Ever since we started cosplay last year, we met great people that became our friends because of our common interest in anime, manga, games and cosplay. When we did our Bleach cosplay last year---with me as Toushiro Hitsugaya and Marc as Kenpachi Zaraki---one cosplayer approached and invited us to be part of a Bleach photoshoot. I will not get into detail with that, but in short, we were able to form a big group and did a Bleach photoshoot November last year---with almost all the main characters present. But that isn’t the last of our get-together because just last Sunday, we did another Bleach photoshoot: the Turn Back The Pendulum Arc.

| Bleach: Turn Back the Pendulum Arc |
For most of us, the Turn Back The Pendulum was one of the best arcs in the Bleach series because it’s really connected to the whole series and tells about the past of Soul Society, mainly the Vizards. After having a great time with our last photoshoot, we decided do this arc and set it on April 29, 2012.
While we were very excited for this shoot, we never expected the smoldering heat that came with it. Philippines is experiencing a very, very hot weather these past months---with most of the time going up to 40 degrees. And that heat was evident on our shoot last Sunday as it left us always dehydrated and had a hard time moving around. But that didn’t stop us from having a great time with each other and doing the shots we want in order to bring the TBTP arc to life.
I cosplayed one of the Vizards, Mashiro Kuna, former lieutenant of Squad 9. I have always wanted to cosplay a Vizard because they’re my favorite group in the Bleach series---and also because I want to wear a Hollow mask XD And that came true, thanks to this photoshoot. Cosplaying Mashiro was fun as she was sort of a fashionista among the Vizards (green hair, sunglasses, pink scarf), which was a bit opposite of me. So despite the heat and some conflicts, I enjoyed the whole shoot. :)

So without further ado, I present to you some of the pictures from the shoot, courtesy of my fellow Shinigamis and photographers.
