Ripped from Hello Kitty Junkie
For Hello Kitty’s 35th Anniversary, Undercover and Sanrio corroborated to release series of men’s t-shirts featuring Hello Kitty. The bad news the shirts were available only in Japan and sold out very quickly. While doing some web link surfing I found this ad on a Japanese site. There are a few other items I saw for men.
Aeria Games is now accepting sign-ups for the North American closed beta. You can find all the information and sign up go here. Please not you need to sign up for a separate Aeria Games account. I suspect we will have to start allover again that our Funders beta avatars will not be transferred over.
Originally I was not going to play the Singapore Malaysia founders beta but I am a bit impatient waiting for Aeria games to move to beta and release. Since the game is in English, I had no problem playing.
Downloading was a pain, it we ether using horribly slow peer to peer torrent, the technology is worst than old BBS protocols. Direct download problem was I get could not get a download with no CRC errors in the file. After somebody posted in smaller files I was able to download and install. The SG/My version gave me a chance to sample the new changes to the game since the Happy Hearts event.
First I went incognito so I do not look like the ugly American. The clothing has a South East Asian look to them.
G-sale Rescue.
Or is my apartment become a Sanrio refuge?
You know you’re a hello kitty obsessive hello Kitty Fan why one call Hello Kitty yard sale purchases a rescue.
Today G-saling run I cam across one where the mother and daughter saw my big kitty, the mother inform me there was probably some Hello Kitty items mixed in with the large pile of plushies she was selling. All of a sudden the daughter, around eight, informed her mother she was not longer interested in Hello Kitty and put her HK plush into the sale pile. I hope it was not the sight of me, guy with a Hello Kitty Plush that ended the magic for the young girl, I will never forgive myself. I did felt guilty enough to go back purchase three of them. Her mother thanked me; I suspect she was trying to get her daughter to downsize the number of plushies. There was a huge pile, perhaps more than 50.
This leads me to a question, I noticed many ads for yard sales or selling pre-owned Sanrio items go like this, “Selling Hello Kitty items daughter no longer interested in them”. Now I know many adult Sanrio fans started as child. The question I have is was there a break in your interest between childhood and adult hood, and became a Hello Kitty Fan on the rebound or were you a fan since childhood?
