We are the Mabudachi trio. We are three nerds who are dedicated and obsessed with learning and teaching everything there is to know about anime, manga, games, technology, and everything else nerdy. We call ourselves the mabudachi trio based on a manga called fruit basket. The three of us shall go by; Ayame (the snake), Hatori (the dragon) and and Shigure (the dog) We would love you to read our blogs to educate yourself on nerd news and to be entertained in a way that no one but nerds can offer.

MORE POSTS!

We sure know how to suck up :D


So this is the 3rd time I've attempted to start this post. It took me forever to decide what to post in this blog but I've decided since I spent a lot of time this week at the Royal Adelaide Show, I'm going to give a list of my favourite things from this week in no particular order.


1. Acquiring 7 plushies. I got the hippogriff, beaky, the phoenix, filomina, the lion, leroy, the sailor bear, rodger, an alienoid, belinda and birthday bear the care bear :D


2. My friend scared a scare crow. It was pretty good, the scare crow was giving a kid a hug and my friend stood behind him waiting for a hug. When he turned around he freaked, it was amazing to watch.


3. THE EXTREME! My new favourite ride, it goes in circles and at the same time 3 seats on the end of each arm spin as well, but perpendicular to the rest of the ride, in other words, you're spinning in 3D!


4. Looking at the cakes. I always love seeing the cakes in the competitions each year. This year there was one that was little miss and mr men themed, and another that had a rabbit sitting on a book, with writing on the other page written in icing, it's freaking amazing.


5. BUBBLES! They were selling so many bubble guns it was amazing, there were bubbles no matter where you went.


6. Cheese toasties! The staple diet for the week, seeing as they were only $2 and absolutely delicious!


7. The market bazaar. I love that place, looking around at everything random, highlights this year included the shocking pen that hurt me so much it fell out of my grip the second it began to shock me, the cool new thai pants I got for $10 and henna tattoos.


8. Sand sculptures. A professional sand sculptor comes in every year, last year he made a dragon but this year he made and ocean theme, there was a dolphin, a mermaid and PATRICK AND SPONGEBOB! However, for some reason spongebob came down, which was fine because he was replaced with (a very out of place sculpture of) Peter Griffin's head!


9. Motorbikes! They. Are. So. Cool. These guys can pull off some amazing stuff, admittedly not the best, but hey, still far beyond what most people could hope to do. I was legitimately scared for their lives at some stages, even if they've learnt the tricks and rehearsed and such.


10. Watching the fireworks from the members area. Some of them were literally right over my head, it was sooooo cool, and the best part is that they do it to music. Of course one of the songs was fireworks by Katy Perry, and I must say, I've never seen fireworks timed so well with music before in my life.


And there was heaps of other stuff that made my week at the show awesome, but I'll leave it at that for now :)

What's this? Another Update!

Greetings once again. I figured in order to make up for the recent lack of posts I would do another one. So what I'm going to do for the next few posts is pick a random word and find out interesting or pointless facts about it. So today's word is: Duck.

A male duck is called a Drake

Ducks' feet have no nerves or blood vessels

A group of ducks is called a raft, team or paddling

A duck's nest is made from is own feathers

Very few quacks actually go 'quack' (they grunts, squeck and chrip instead)

The most famous fictional characters that are ducks are: Donald Duck (Disney) and Daffy Duck (Looney Tunes)

Ducks have three eyelids

Contrary to some beliefs, when ducks quack they do have an echo, often too quiet to be heard

Ducks sleep with half their brains awake.

Ducks have an extremely special ability to detect predators in less than a second.

Ducklings are born with their eyes open and a warm coat and don't rely entirely on their parents for food, in fact ducklings are ready to leave the nest within hours of hatching

My first word was quack (see pointless facts)

Anyways that's all for now.

Farewell,

Ayame

P.S Can anyone actually tell who it is out of the three of us that is wrting the post until we say at the end because I can't

HIIIIIIIII

Hey all!


So yeah, like Ayame said, we haven't posted in forever, and like her, I'm going to do a summary of what I've done since I last update (but I won't count words)
Camp, Harry potter 7.2, school :p, brother flew half way around the world, retreat, finished diamond nuzlocke, started soulsilver nuzlocke, finished ss nuzlocke, started white nuzlocke, polaroid camera, royal adelaide show :D


To elaborate on those, purely to make this post longer:

  • I went on July camp, because I'm cool and therefore am a scout. We stayed at a place called woodhouse for 4 days and it was heaps fun and I'm gonna be on TV :D
  • Saw the final instalment of HP, twice. Didn't cry the first time because I wanted to see everything, but balled my eyes out the second time.
  • School... yr. 12 is finally kicking in. It's really stressful and I think I may cave in soon
  • My brother left for Sweden for a year of study exchange. It's cool that he's there but it sucks coz he's not here...
  • Went on the venturer [scout] retreat (Ayame and Hatori also attended) which was pretty cool, had heaps of fun, met new people, learnt new words (WHISTEPOOP!)
  • Did lots of nuzlocking, finished diamond with: Squidgy (empoleon), Sammy (weavile), Sean (hippowdon), Christy (rapidash), Lisa (Crobat) and Xavier (Lucario). Then started AND finished my ss nuzlocke with: Athena (Feraligatr), Seamus (Togekiss), Hugo (Machamp), Risa (Golem), Tuna (Magnezone) and Daisy (Arbok). Almost done on white, too.
  • My brother's girlfriend got a polaroid camera and I have fairly unrestricted access to it, although I don't like to use it if she doesn't know I am
  • THE SHOW!!!! IT'S ON THIS WEEK AND I LOVE IT!!! SUGAR AND RIDES AND BUBBLES AND FIREWORKS AND THE MARKET AND SHOWBAGS AND ANIMALS!
anyway, now that that's over I'm going to do the questions Ayame posted

My most humble apoligises, I'm not going to make excuses I just never got around to updating. To be honest the only reason I thought I should update is becasuse I'm procastinating and couldn't think of anything else to do but hopefully we might get back in to updating more often. Much has been happening since last we said anything. First of all I have some reommmendations, (even though no one reads this, there is still the slight chance that one day some people might) for all you pokemon fans search these names on deviantArt and be amazed. Landwalker, pettyartist and ky-nim. I also recommend that you read the popular magna series 'Pokemon Adventures' it's awesome and listen to the band 'I Fight Dragons'. Finally if you ever have the chance to play the boardgame Balderdash, play it! It's awesome.

Here we go: Finished Pearl Nuzlocke, went camping, Saw final Happy Potter movie :(, AVCON!!, school (boring), started Soul Silver Nuzlocke, starting planning next Nerd Fest, went to Canberra and Sydney, updated blog.

Yeah just for the record, the HP books are a lot better than the movies but the movies were still good. AVCON was amazing, yay for Pokemon Tounaments. And now in order to increase the length of this post I found some random questions and when the other guys see that I updated I think you guys should do them too. Just saying. Anyways.
