Misako Rocks!

On 20th, I went to two libraries in NJ(which is almost in Delaware and Philly). I got up 4:00am!! The amtrak ride was relaxing and I enjoyed^_^ But I realized visiting two libraries in one day is just crazy!

Many people showed up at Bridgeton library for this event! I gave a speech at first.

Kids there were very talented and have unique styles!

Many people bought my books too! Thank you guys—!

And she’s the sweetest librarian, Terri who set up this event. She ordered Sushi for us too!

After Bridgeton library, I moved to Riverton public library. We didn’t expect many kids to show up. So they ended up sharing tiny tables. They look cute!

Young teens showed up this event. But their styles were very very good and I’m impresed by everyone there.

I was tyring to draw a big nice smily face, but I didn’t do good job…>_<

Look at such a cute girl and my big head! I should have sit way behind her!

These girls were very motivated and one of them told me that she’ll do cosplay of my character! Cute^_^

In the end we took photos together! Yeah!!!!!! Thank you for coming! And the cute girl in the right is my best pal, Yoppi!

Yesterday I had the best time ever…!!! We had an amazing party. Many kids showed up and friends who I made through myspace came for me too!
I didn’t have sit down and signing for two hours straight! Thanks to everyone, my books were sold out too!

First I introduced myself^_^

I set up a lot of Japanese snack.. but right after the party started, it was gone..!!

I made this last month for this party! It took two days for me to finish!

Me and Alex! Check it out!

Signing–!! Yeah! Thank you everyone!

Hope everyone enjoyed reading DJ!

Man… I look very sweaty!
