Hello everyone! I don't think I have ever introduced myself
before. You know me as the creator of Jappleng but what you may not
know is that I like Pizza Pops.
I also like Japan! I lived overseas for about a year and a
half and found asia to be really interesting. Korea, Japan,
Philippines were all great!
Jappleng started as a pet project of mine, a blog if you will
about east asian countries because I had originally planned to move
to Japan permanently as a teacher. Life changes had been made and I
decided to just be a programmer instead.
I'm happily married now, but when Jappleng started in late
2005 before I even had a girlfriend and I was coming out of my teen
years like some of you right now. A promise was made that Jappleng
would eventually be built the way I proposed it and there you have
it, 2022 and Jappleng version 7.0 is coming in a few days.
As far as interests goes... I like RPGs the most, K-Pop to me
sounds better than a lot of J-Pop but I do like groups like X
Japan, L'arc en ciel and others like it. I know, a bit old school?
I like anime but really wish the isekai genre would be toned down a
little in place of a variety of other genres. Don't worry, I do
like some isekai, I just want less iseaki and more other genres
like seinen or shoujo. I love to videoke, I made my own setup at
home with a projector it's fun! I sing a lot of Filipino songs
too!
My wife is also a weeb like me, and IDC if people hate my
opinions, I just hope Jappleng can be a fun, free place for people
to hang out at. It was something I wanted as a teen, and now that
newborns back then are teens today, maybe their generation can
enjoy what I could not have at the time. Surprisingly a place like
Jappleng still doesn't exist 15 years later. lulz...
Also, did I mention I like Pizza Pops?
