The Japanese online store I bought her from has notified me since last month that she's been shipped so I thought she would be here by last week. I waited and waited but no Pinky Haruhi Suzimiya arrived. I checked the tracking site and it showed that the package arrived after three days.
This afternoon, I found out the reason for her delay. Our Bureau of Customs is holding her. She is being subjected to duties!!!
I can't believe that a single piece of plastic doll would be held hostage and subjected to taxes almost three times her price. What kind of policy is this?
Government must be so cash strapped that it wants people to pay for something that is not even worth a thousand pesos!!!
I feel sorry for dear Haruhi languishing in the warehouse of EMS. BUT I really can't bring myself to pay for the duties being imposed on her. I wanted her badly but I'd rather give her up than cough up for something as unreasonable as what this government wanted me to pay for her release.
Forgive me my dear Haruhi. But I'll just wait for your release here. Even if it takes some two to three months.

Shana how could you!
Bad bad girl!
You broke the peg on your katana. Now how could you play with it? How could you use your fiery sword?
As if you were not contented with that, you also broke the peg on the katana of the Wonderfest arms set. What would the other girls play with now?
And both your hands are unusable now with the pegs stuck in each of your hand. Oh Shana how could you!

New PC
My dear Maki went to the office with me yesterday. She was just too excited to find out that I have a new PC at my workplace. She gamely had her picture taken beside it to show off to her friends.

Shakugan No Shana
Another anime character has been transformed into a cute little Pinky!
She's Shana from the anime, Shakugan No Shana (Shana of the Burning Eyes). In the anime, she is a flame haze who loves melon bread. Her love interest in the story is a young boy named Yuji. I don't really know the anime but since she's a Pinky, I really wanted to have her. She's also a special release and thanks to flickr groupmate who is based in Japan, I was able to get her.
Pinky Shana comes with her own sword (which, unfortunately she has already brokem) with an interchangeable steel and flame blade. She has flaming red hair and eyes.
She's the only pinky who wears a black trench coat. That really made me fall for her.
