Inactivity Strikes!

Monday 9 August 2010 |

I just can't keep up in the blogosphere right now! I'm not really that busy either so there is no excuse! I recently celebrated my 17th birthday, in which I had my good friend Brendon over for birthday fun and Chinese-style nommies. We played a lot of video games o.o
I also did a cosplay photoshoot with my friend Zoe, in my Remilia Ver.2 cosplay. I had A LOT of fun doing that and playing with different poses. I hope to have her photograph me again in my Cirno cosplay. She's a brilliant photographer and apparently, I'm very photogenic. Here's one of the shots from the shoot.

I love this shot ^^ It shows off my nice new wings.
Based on this pose.

Due to the disappearance of Riku and my mom not wanting me to be lonely, I was given a small bundle of joy called Miu. Here's a photo of her, snapped by Dave:
Sleepy Neko-chan <3

I am also preparing and organising a cosplay picnic meet up for next week! It's going to be so fantastic!!

I've set up a Tumblr account now, which I will post on when I'm not posting on here. Go there for lots of cute and interesting stuffs!

Psst - Check out this Tsubasa-themed giveaway over at Finding Tokyo! Some cute nail stuffs up for grabs, including a bottle of Tsubasa's new Dolly Wink nail polish! =O

Gets + My Summer Playlist

Sunday 1 August 2010 |

Hello! I'm back from my holiday. I forgot to post my hiatus post before I left and my grandmother doesn't have internet in her house! Lame! Actually, it was quite nice to unplug for a while and relax in the beautiful county of Surrey~
But, I did go shopping while I was away. I had some extra cash so I bought lots of lovely goodies!

I love this top! It's so comfy and looks great with shorts or leggings.
I do tend to leave a trail of glitter behind though.

This maxi dress is soooo lovely and long. I plan to wear it underneath a yellow t-shirt with red edging.

These shorts are amazing. I was so thrilled to find a pair in my size! Plus, the rip on the side looks like a kitty cat to me.
These are also quite awesome. So simple but nice and cool as they are linen.

I also bought a pink and white baggy striped top, a yellow crop top with black sailboats and airplanes on it and the top mentioned in this post. I love shopping.

I love music. I love it more than I love fashion. Which is why I'm going to post here my top 5 Songs of the Summer! I strongly suggest you check out each of these amazing artists!

Top 5 Songs of the Summer:

So there you go, some awesome new music for you to listen to or maybe some repeated favourites! I love to sing my heart out when I'm on the road with Dave. It's so much fun! We like to belt out Fireflies by Owl City like mad people. Love it!

I hope everyone is having a fabulous summer! My summer so far has been a small holiday and BIG decisions. But I'm happy with the choices I have finally made.

Goodbye, My Sweet Kitten

Wednesday 14 July 2010 |

My sweet, darling cat

Today, I am sad to announce the disappearance of my cat, Riku. We are unsure if he is dead or alive, no one in the area has seen him. We were never bad to him, he was always well fed and looked after and I loved him to pieces. He was my baby and the one thing I knew would always love me, even when no one else did. Sadly, he has left me. I can only hope that he is still among us but living near railway tracks, a large river and main roads has left me with no hope. Maybe I will hear him crying at my window again someday soon.
I hope you will enjoy these photos in his memory.





He loved being the centre of attention and therefore loved the camera.
He was is my world. He will always be my baby and no one will ever replace him.

Good-bye, Riku.

Popteen: August Issue + Thrifting

Thursday 8 July 2010 |

Click here to view scans!

In Popteen's August issue, they feature an interview with the beautiful singer Kana Nishino, the voice behind the amazing song Best Friend. This outfit of hers is absolutely amazing! It has a mori-gal feel to it. It just so happened I found a lacy top like that in Primark today, in the form of a cardigan with an invisible zip. I only wish I'd taken a photo of it! It was so cute!
I also recommend Primark mode-gal finds! There is TONS of cheap (price-wise of course, not cheap-looking!) gal-worthy items in there. As soon as I get my paycheck, I'm going in to stock my wardrobe for the summer!

The art of thrifting - going into a charity store (thrift store) and buying something nice to make into something fabulous! Currently, this is one of my favourite things to do. I love going around all the charity stores with my mom. I've picked up loads of cute stuff from them. I recently bought a pink and white candy striped tank top and a yellow and white summer dress. Both are amazing and in such good condition! Plus, I feel super good afterwards, I've shopped lots and given money to charity. I urge you! Get out there and thrift your heart out!

Sorry for my lack of updates by the way. Again, nothing interesting to say! Plus, I was without internet for almost a week. It was so boring ><;

じゃね~!

Decoden: The Strangely Relaxing Hobby

Saturday 26 June 2010 |

Today was my last day at college. I was kind of sad to leave, since it's been a big part of my life for a while and I met so many great people there. I actually cried a little while walking though the halls for the last time.
But that's not what this post is about!

I've always been fascinated by the world of deco. All the pretty and sparkly phones and handheld games consoles... *u* <3
So today, I grabbed my very boring phone, some glue, tweezers and some glittery bits and just deco'd my afternoon away. It was so relaxing, just sat there with my music on sticking on rhinestone after rhinestone.
After around 4 hours I got to a state of completion. This is the result:

 A very shiny phone.

I had some leftover rhinestones too, as well as a small fairy that I wanted to use on something. So I ended up spending another 2 hours making this:

Crap photo is crap but you get the basic idea.

Over the top of my pink DS Lite, the green didn't look very nice. So, I gave this case to my mom, who loves fairies and shiny things. She was very happy with the surprise! And it looks lovely on her white DS Lite. 
I love decoden so much >w< It's so fun and relaxing. It's great to do on a hot day when you just don't want to do anything. My next project is a new case for my iPod. I want to try and make a picture of my current favourite Touhou character, Cirno, out of rhinestones of different sizes. Time to look for places that sell rhinestones online!

Question for readers! Do you like deco? Do you think it looks nice or just looks tacky? Comment!

Over and out!
