SAFS Attack
Been under attack by SAFS of late.
Figma Doara, Figma ToLucky, Figma Miyuki (she got the big big eyes), Nendoroid Dengeki Daioh ver (incredibly cute) and another nendoroid Shana Enpatsu ver.
The worst thing about receiving goodies everyday is cleaning up the cardboard boxes that they arrive in ^^; Spend 15 mins-ish each day of late cutting up boxes and separating out the plastics and cardboard for recycle and then taping everything up. Then I need to vacuum the floor due to all the bits that fall off from the cardboard boxes. Boring but not complaining ^^;

You're not planning to throw away that Fauna, are you? O_o
Cleaning my figures probably. Although I'm not really complaining since I want to keep mine in tip-top condition ^^

The only part of my daily routine that makes me bored is when I have to do my homework which starts from after I do my hair till dinner time or if I finish early.

Boohoo, poor you...I wouldn't mind opening those boxes for ya ^^. Guess the most boring thing of my day is the commute to and from uni: >1hr in 2 trains and a bus. Never get round to doing anything on the train cause I just can't focus on stuff...

Waiting for the snow so that I can go skiing. Waiting for my figures, poster and so on to arrive in the mail. Waiting for school to end. Waiting for commercials to end. Waiting for downloads to be finished.
Most of the things that bore me have something to do with waiting. I'm quite impatient :P

I can see why disposing of the packaging would be annoying. Is there any way you can ask them to consolidate shipments so they come less frequently but more per box? It'd be less packaging for you and a lower shipment cost per SAF for them.

Hmm i have to agree with Danny on the cleaning part. Sure is a real hactic especially since i moved to a new place like only 6 months from when i moved to my old place. Plus i keep my boxes of my figures....so packing is a real pain, but i love the feel after i cleaned up my darlings. ^_^

I know that this may seem selfish, but my heart pains each time I see you get SAFS. (TT.TT)
Spending money on your passion is alright, but it is so much more awesome to get stuff for free. Getting them before everyone else is even better.
Really hope to understand the workings of a figure company more. Hopefully, I can get a job there in the future. :)

Cycling to school annoys me as its getting colder and colder. Today it was below 0C.
More SAFS O_o
I always store the figure boxes, as I have only ~15 figures and lotsa space available.
Next one will be Alter Signum, figma miku and/or GSC miku. ^___^

hmmmm....none, I decided enjoy life to the fullest ever since I found out what my passion was.
I think if I was to receive figures everyday the whole passion for it might change because I wouldn't be anxiously waiting for my figures to arrive and trying to snatch a preorder before someone else does.

Well, I'm living alone right now, so the list is long.
House choirs mostly.
At least, recycling here isn't so hard as it is in Japan.
There are only two types of trash: Recyclable, and non-recyclable. Don't need to sepparate into plastic, paper and metal just yet... though some places already have 4 trashcans to each.
Statistically though, I'm part of the small percentage of people who actually do recycles... sadly.
Also: Black haired Shana DO WANT!!!!

As a sign of good faith Danny, I am willing to bear your attack from SAFS for you. Oh... the sacrifice will be great, but I'll hold out as long as I can. You can forward my addy to GSC. No gratitude is required. ^^

Naw, in all seriousness, anything can get mundane after awhile. As for daily routine...not much, actually. Eating, I guess. Which is sort of sad, 'cause I used to love and enjoy it. Now I just quickly eat and get back to what I'm doing beforehand.

Danny, I've always wondered, have you ever received a free figure that you don't like?
If you have, or if you did receive one you didn't like, what would you do?

I usually give them to people who I meet. I had planned on giving them to users but would rather have my sponsors send you unboxed figures instead. Soniko giveaway very soon.

Danny, why don't you take it all out to the carport to cut and sort. Then all you need to do is sweep up when you are done. I usually have no problems with boxes. I had a couple of jobs while in college doing shipping and receiving so...
Right now I have way too much work to do than I have time to do it in. I know I know...time to make changes.

boring routine?
Well, on some days of the week i have to drive some of my family members out to the train station in the wee hours of the morning - usually the times when i'm asleep.
So i'm driving around half awake and it's like driving while drunk - not that i know what driving drunk feels like, but i think i have a good idea of it now.
Is that the Miyuki with massive eyes you were talking about on the blurbs last night?

Yay, love that Shiki. Ordered already, waiting for her to come.

SAFS....
Miyuki!!!!
If there's anything I don't like about school/hobby is putting them back in the box again. I don't have a desk in my room at the moment so they all have to be placed back in their boxes until I have some sort of display cabinet. Then again they are figmas so I might not mind putting them in their boxes...usually I put them back later on so they just hang out in their playset

LOL. Hey Danny with so many new figures arriving ever week how do you plan to store all of them in your home. You can only go so far with boxed up figures in plastic bins and such. In fact will you call it quits with figure collecting within a year? LOL
Or maybe you can start selling/shipping out figures you don't need anymore. :)

For me, the most boring parts of the day are between 10:15 and 11:00, and from 13:00 to 14:45 (approximately). It doesn't matter what I'm doing, these are always the times things tend to go stagnant and you know lunchtime/hometime are still ages away! That's working in a office for you.

Most boring parts is when I get everything done, and have nothing to do. This is usually in the evening, but flunctuates depending on when I get up.

Wow, what a hard routine you have:P Err, just kidding, guess everything will get boring if you do it all the time...

Pretty much all of my job bores me with what I currently do and did previously for my employer. My position is a no brainer one and as such is %99 physical so at the end of the day I am dead dog beat. Currently I'm working on a job search to try and get my family to Virginia Beach Virginia so that we can care for my father as his health is waning but the search has been less than positive.
