the monster of an update (part 1)!
*dodges barrage of old fruit*
Yep, I'm back! Finally dusting off the accumulated *cough* dust on this un-updated blog of updates (with proper updates this time!). Over the past couple of months, I've been working on keybies, of course, and some new stuff that's coming your way. In fact, there's so much new stuff, it couldn't fit one update :O
I apologize for not updating you guys, but I find it really, really hard to stay on the net and work at the same time. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I suck at time management (something I'm sure you're all well aware of), and I've been giving more priority to academics. Good news though, I'm doing rather well :D
I'm currently taking in a few custom orders, but these are ones I only chose to do because they were fairly simple. I'm afraid I still can't actually say that the Cafe is really ready to take orders head on again, especially since I've still got a lot of orders that need doing and a lot of studying that needs even more doing--
But of course, I come bearing gifts!
Some of these new things have already been seen at the past 3 cons/bazaars since my last update, and by some people who've spied me working on the floor of the Yuchenco lobby (working hunched over Caboose hurts my butt as much as my back, but the conservatory's always full D:). To make things easier, I'm presenting everything I've been up to in this monster update.
Let it begin. Rawr.
First of all, I know I owe two people a free keybies from two raffles that I never got to hold last January and December, but finally, these two lucky people are getting special keybies:
CONGRATULATIONS
geboy86, gapcasas420 and chin_tiongson1234!!
Your keybies will come to you soon enough. Promise ;) Only, starting from these raffles, I'll be changing the rules a bit: You can still get the chance to win a free keybie every month after joining the mailing list (you can't win more than once though), but you'll be receiving your free keybie in your next order of regular keybies.
If you happen to win the monthly raffle, but never place an order, you won't get your free keybie.
And now, what I believe will be the longest and most anticipated part of this update, the New Keybies!!
There's actually so much of them that to put them all here would've delayed this post longer (imagine putting every single one in here manually :P), so instead I'm putting in the new anime/games series and their character:
Bookmark Collection
Now making its official debut on the website, the Bookmark Collection has beaded keybies on the ends of flat leatherette cords, spiffing up any reading material~ Any keybie can be made into a bookmark, as long as the keybie design comes in a small size :D This includes Pillow Pets and School Cupcakes, among other designs, but it doesn't include Fan Characters.

A big thank you to everyone who bought a keybie at the Otaku Expo, University Week, and TAGCOM last Jan 23-24! I must be getting used to standing, because my legs didn't hurt anymore (still remember my first experience at a con last year, at Shizen. Boy did my legs kill me) and though it got really hot in the middle of afternoon, things were just awesome.
Check the albums for piccys :D
For those of you who don't know, I also have a case worth of keybies in CSCENTRL, 2nd floor of Greenbelt 1, Makati. It's now packed with more keybies than ever, just a few of which are the new designs I've mentioned above.
But soon enough, you'll also be able to find keybies at CSCENTRL's new branch in Greenhills! I'll keep you guys updated as to when I have my new case up and packed, so stay tuned~!
I've also gone and updated a good few of the old pages in the site, starting with the 'Meet the Cafe Owner' page and the FAQ. I realized that it's been a long, long time since I last had bangs, so I went with something more recent :D It's a picture taken by Mishie from our Tagaytay trip last Christmas~
Doing her best to finish part two by next,Micah
