I wonder why people wonder what I look like…
It amuses me that I get quite a lot of people googling for real life pictures of me. Obviously the simple solution would be to befriend me on Facebook, as a certain someone accidentally managed to do today 
.
Wouldn’t recommend it though, since I’m as pasty/pudgy as dough, and I fear the sight of my ugly face would send some into shock. I need to get off my ass and get some exercise… Actually, I have a morbid fear of being photographed (is there a scientific term for it) and I think the only individual photos of me taken of me within the last 5 years are those on my identity card and driver’s license heh.
I haven’t quite grasped why some bloggers are willing to show off their names & faces on the interwebs while others have even their gender shrouded in secrecy… ego? fear? just being personable? In my case, I’m just paranoid about privacy and prefer to remain in my little closet marked ’seiyuu otaku’.
Admittedly I’m not one for networking or being involved in the so-called otakusphere, and I’m hopelessly lost in all the recent talk about RSS opti-something that’s been invading my Google Reader. Being the technotard I am, I tried fiddling around with the sharing stuff thing and ended up with a ragtag bunch of seiyuu blog entries (with notes) that may or may not be interesting to others. Oh hang on, am I not meant to be collecting posts from other bloggers… 
On another random & completely unrelated note, I’ll theoretically be gone ’til December (8th) – away at a conference in Kuala Lumpur for a few days, then I’ve got some serious cramming for JLPT2 to do. Some people say status updates are lame, but yeah.
What were we talking about again? Oh yeah, how I look. Erm… I think my physical features are somewhat similar to those of the living being in the picture below.
Aww, I’m sure you’re better looking than that! (I meanwhile, bear a striking resemblance to Winston Churchill with a beard and mustache.) Although, can you do cat lips like Aya Hirano apparently can?
Everyone is interested in how girls look like. Nobody cares about us guys.
I think cats are absolutely adorable…
Oh yea… why haven’t we thought of facebook-ing you? 0_o duh.
So i tried to look up the scientific term for the fear of being photographed… surprisingly, I could not find it. I did find a few rather interesting ones…
“Epistaxiophobia – fear of nosebleeds” <– not a good phobia to have when one is a minorin fan
“Venustraphobia/Caligynephobia- fear of beautiful women” <– yet another bad phobia to have when one is a fan of minorin
“Japanophobia – fear of Japanese or the Japanese culture” <– … wow… such a phobia exists?!
Lol, I also don’t like my picture to be on the interwebs as much as possible. I just don’t like any chance to have my picture around. You never know what it might land up with, and privacy issues as well.
“Everyone is interested in how girls look like.”
Imaginatively good lookin’ until proved otherwise.
And GJ! on the shared items. Here’s mine
j1m0ne must be adorable then…look at that cat! *squeals*
By the way, I absolutely love the notes you put on those seiyuu entries. “Ito Shizuka does not repent” *laughs*
you look just like my friend…
and oh, FEED GET!
bwahahaha I’m sorry girl. ^^; I was amused when someone busted me out (and I used different email) the other day, so naturally I tried to find you, my hero blogger, which resulted in me cursing Facebook for the automatically sent invitation. orz
..and ew for Namikawa confirming his (obvious) yaoiness.
“Seiyuu otaku”?? hahaha…shouldn’t you be “closet otaku” then?? LOLOLOL
Oh well, good luck for your JLPT2~
Wish me luck also eh…though I take JLPT4 hahaha XD
If looking irrefutably ugly in photos is a disease, somebody find a cure quick cos I sure as hell need it -_-”
*looks at picture*
aw, now that’s just cheating
I haven’t actually met any bloggers who post their pictures :<
