SanrioTown Dream Srudio Video of the Week!

We’re right smack in between Christmas and New Year, so what better way to celebrate this season by featuring a video highlighting the holidays- but with a Sanrio twist? Merry Christmas Hello Kitty“, made by filipinogirl, is a collection of holiday pictures featuring Hello Kitty, and occasionally joined by her twin sister Mimmy, Dear Daniel, and her other friends. There is even a mini-story in the video, what with the captions added by the maker of the video. Also, if you pay attention to the slides, you’ll be able to catch a few surprises that would make you smile.:D

Blog of the Week!

Ever since anime was introduced, it has steadily grown momentum and is now one of the biggest influences of pop culture. It appeals to people of all ages (much like Hello Kitty!) Here in SanrioTown, we’ve got a lot of anime fans on board, and our featured blogger is a part of that mini-community!

sugar_berii is an anime-and-manga fan, and it shows in her posts! Her posts show this interest. Her entries are actually more on the cutesy type, something that young people would surely love.

Merry Christmas!

SanrioTown Dream Studio Video of the Week!

It’s only five days until Christmas! Are you getting excited? We are!

During Christmas, we may ask for certain things that we would want to receive as our gifts. These usually come in the form of items: toys, gadgets, books, etc. Hajnee, however, has a different request and she expressed it in a very unique fashion: though a Dream Studio video!

All I Want for Christmas” was made by the video creator as though she was writing to Santa Claus. While she says she doesn’t want that much, at least nothing that could be gift-wrapped, she has one request, and she hopes that this will be granted come Christmas day.You can find out what her wish is by going to http://video.sanriotown.com/video/76d9be35542c283b. It’s a very cute slideshow that most of us can probably relate to, whether we admit to it or not.:D

SanrioTown Blog of the Week!

We’ve got another New Yorker as our featured blogger! Blog-Elie is not just a blog about the Big Apple, although we do get to read tales about it (ever heard about Oleg, the human computer/cab driver?). She also has stories to tell about her baking adventures, shopping finds, and of course, Hello Kitty sights and goodies! The owner is a web designer whose “interests include archeology and dental floss”. While she admits that her blog does not have a general theme and that her posts would be all over the place, we think this is what makes it interesting. After all, it’s fun when you can’t always predict what you’ll see next, right?

Blog of the Week!

When you hear “Muffled Noise”, what’s the first thing that pops in your head? a. Mess and chaos

b. Music

c. Confusion

d. This week’s featured blog on SanrioTown?

If you answered B or D, you’ve got it right. Music buffs will surely love this week’s featured blog on the Blog All-Stars. Muffled Noise is all about the beat, the sound, and the vibe. The blog owner does not discriminate nor stick to a specific kind of music: no matter what genre, performer, or band, you’ll surely find at least a tidbit of it on this journal. One day you might find her blogging about R&B, the next, boy bands (admit it: you’ve listened to one of their products and enjoyed it at least once in your life). It’s not just bare facts that she talks about on her journal though: she makes commentries on her features, so it adds to the pull of the blog to know what she thinks about the issues she brings up.
