Nopy's Blog

Some of you may have noticed a lack of posts on my blog recently. The main reasons for my inactivity are because of job interviews and looking for a place to rent. Two weeks ago I had several job interviews lined up and I managed to land a position (yay!). Although I’m still in university, I need to have 20 months (5 terms) of work experience to get my degree, and I just have 4 more months (1 term) left. The thing about this job though is that it’s about 780km away in a city of about 200k people.

My main reasons for getting this figure were:

1. Hinagiku is awesome.

2. I liked her pose.
