Deck The Halls With Lots Of Sparkles!

Sunday 20 December 2009 |

Ohlalalala lalalala!

Christmas is my absolute favourite holiday. I LOVE FAIRY LIGHTS!
My bedroom isn't very Christmas-y this year, because of the fact that I have had no money for the Christmas holidays. But after Christmas, I'm going to turn my bedroom into a pink and princessy wonderland! I'll be trading my bunk bed for a single bed and making a canopy to go over my bed. I need some new bits, like a duvet cover (Hello Kitty of course), a laundry bin, posters, cushions, fairy lights (= loveeee <3).I'll be making over my desk to be a dressing table. I inherited an antique dressing table set from my great-grandmother because she left us (Rest in peace my Nanna). It has a 2 brushes, a comb and a hand mirror. The back of each item (except for the comb) has a beautiful blue rose on it.
I might get a little bookcase too for my copies of G&LB, various books, my journal, my Dream Book (I'll explain what that is later) and to put photo frames on. But yea, back to Christmas.
My Wishlist for this year:

  • A new phone (Pink LG Cookie)
  • Alice In Wonderland & Through the Looking Glass
  • A digital camera
  • Some Hello Kitty stuff (Hello Kitty Secret Pillow from Argos <3)
  • Some new phone straps
  • Kamikaze Girls (Both the movie and the book)
  • Some more G&LB <3
What do you want for Christmas? I wish I had the money to get a new outfit but sadly I don't.
Some daily outfits for you (Sorry about the red eye orz):


Daily Outfits 22nd December 2009 & 24th December 2009
  • Blouse: Matalan/Top: Mom's
  • Skirt: Primark/Skirt: Primark
  • Necklace: Gift from Mom/Hairbow: Handmade - "Tartan Bows" fabric £3.99
  • Socks (Not Pictured): New Look/Socks: New Look

This will probably be my last post until after New Years so...

And have a lovely New Year.

International Lolita Day!

Monday 7 December 2009 |

On Saturday, I had some of my lovely lolita girlfriends over for a day of crafty fun! But first, some information about International Lolita Day:
International Lolita Day, or "LoliDay", is a bi-annual event that takes place on the first Saturdays of both June and December. These dates were chosen so lolitas could show off their fun switch between summer and winter clothing. Usually on these days, lolitas would meet up and do fun lolita activities such as making cakes, crafts, watching movies, shopping, photoshoots etc. Since I celebrated my first LoliDay in winter, we stayed in an each took to our own unique crafts and all had something to take home at the end (except Steph, her's got messed up but I'm going to fix it for her and give it to her soon ^^).

We took loads of pictures on the day of everything we did. I made a hair comb partly using a tutorial in G&LB vol. 5 (TokyoPop Ver.). Miss Vicci made a Ragamuffin of her fiance Ken with the help of Miss Steph. Miss Zoe made a plushie bunny which was absolutely adorable! Miss Titanya also made a Ragamuffin ^^
Next LoliDay will include a trip to Paris for the day to visit the BABY, The Stars Shine Bright store! How exciting!
And now, pictures!


More and bigger pictures are available on my Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sweetangelfreyafreya/
I hope you all had a wonderful LoliDay!

No Utada?!

Tuesday 24 November 2009 |

No Utada?!

Mark paid for tickets for all of us to go see Utada Hikaru (Hikki-Chan)'s "In The Flesh" concert at the O2 Academy in Islington. Yay, right?

No. Not Yay. Because today he received the following email:

"Dear TicketWeb customer,
We are writing to you regarding the tickets you have ordered for the Utada event at O2 Academy Islington on 12 February 2010.
We are sorry to inform you that due to an administrative error on our part, your booking was processed in error, and was not part of the allocation of tickets we were instructed to sell on behalf of the venue." Blah Blah Blah...

So I'm really annoyed.

Kidnapped!

Kidnapped!

I got kidnapped by Mark, Zoe and Dan on Saturday and got taken all the way to London for ALCL! It was a very unexpected and wonderful surprise. I had so much fun. The people there were so lovely and I became good friends with a particularly lovely guy called Dave. When we were all fed up with the atmosphere at ALCL, we hopped on the Tube for a visit to Trocadero where Dave and I danced the day away on various dance machines. We also took a visit to TokyoToys, Japan Centre Bookstore and Food Store and a Chinese resturaunt for dinner. All in all, a really awesome day.

The DSi was a failure... GIVE IT UP NINTENDO!

Thursday 29 October 2009 |

The DSi was a failure... GIVE IT UP NINTENDO!

Today on DannyChoo.com was the (sad, sad) annoucement of the new DSi LL, due to be released in Japan on November 21st. Europe won't get it until April ~ May 2010 (thank god -_-;) It will weigh EXACTLY 100g more than the DSi and 96g more than the DS Lite (I didn't actually know the DS Lite weighed more...) I think the only good thing is that the screen is bigger and probably a faster CPU for better graphics on games.
My little DS Lite is just right for me, only it lags a little when I play fast paced games like Rhythm Paradise, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Cooking Mama 2 and even Nintendogs. But it's nice and light, a good size screen, compact and it's pink ^^
I'm sick of Nintendo's unneccessary upgrades to their products. They should have left the DS as it was when they made the DS Lite. God help us if they decide to make a new Wii console... -_-;

/rant

FFS, I just sat down to type and the bloody Xbox finished copying.
I give up.

Love Love,

Otaku Frilly Babe

Tuesday 27 October 2009 |

Otaku Frilly Babe

I went to the London MCM Expo this weekend. It was absolutely amazing! All the cosplayers! O.O
I adored meeting all the brilliant cosplayers and seeing all the lovely costumes. There were some Resident Evil cosplayers going around scaring everyone. One girl got chased by the guy because she screamed and ran away. It was horrible for her but a right laugh for everyone else!
I went with my mom, my sister and the SAS.


This is what I wore. I made this dress with my mom. It was so warm and comfy to wear. It was a lovely puffy dress. No petticoat required! And it fits Mikey, though it's a little short to be lolita on Mikey...
My sister went as Mew Ichigo from Tokyo Mew Mew. She kept getting stopped by everyone for pictures! Someone wanted a picture as soon as we got off the train at Waterloo!
This is the part of the SAS we travelled with.
The first one is our Miku! That's Mark! It's a trap!
Isn't he lovely? He looked so cute in his outfit, if only he had the pigtails and a leek! You could tell that he was missing his leek because he kept moving his arm up and down. Poor Miku-chan!



Captain Jack Sparrow, The Giant Death Note and a lovely lolita girl!
Well, that's all for today ^^ More later.

Nothing good has happened. Except I got a new figure. More on that later.

On The Ferry Home...

Sunday 11 October 2009 |

On The Ferry Home...

I haven't posted like all weekend ^^;
That's because I was at Nik's this weekend. And now I'm on the ferry home. I'm really tired and bored and I'm upset that I had to leave. But it's Riku's birthday today ^^ That's my cat. He's 1 year old today. Bless his little fuzzy socks.
But yea, fairly busy weekend. Me and Nik went into Ryde yesterday for a day out. We were going to see Toy Story in 3D but it wasn't on ! So we just went out for a day out instead.
Friday it was Annie's birthday, so we did Annie's birthday stuff. Me and Nik had to like, follow her around that evening cause she went out with her friends. They had alcohol and her mom was worried so we had to spy on her. I hate being busy.
I'm like really really tired. I didn't want to go home yet though, I was having fun being with Nik again.
But yea, I be off. Too bored to write.

Love Love,

Wet but Still Sparkly!

It's been awfully rainy lately =( Where did you go Mr.Sun?
I made a new headband today. I'll update with pictures later. It was based off of a headband that can be bought from SickForCute, called the Hair Candy Headband.
http://www.sickforcute.com/shop/product/179/Hair_Candy_Headband
There is some adorable stuff on that website. I'm gunna ask my mom for some of the stuff in the sale for Christmas.
This site was reviewed by: Megan @ http://makelovely.wordpress.com/ Check out her blog for more lovely lolita goodies. She's got some super cute stuff on there!
I'm so tired. It's cold outside too. Good thing I only have 2 more hours of this torture then I can go home and make more lovely lolita accessories. =D

Wow, a lot of lolita babble today.

Love Love,

MinamiCon Registration Delay + Still sick

Friday 2 October 2009 |

MinamiCon Registration Delay + Still Sick

I waited up until midnight for registration for MinamiCon to open. I had to get up at 6:30 this morning! But I waited... and waited... and waited... refreshing the main page every minute. I checked on the foruma and joined in the rant topic about it.
And then, I refreshed that page one last time. And a article was posted explaining the delay and telling all of us who have been waiting since 10pm that they were delaying registration until the 4th at 9pm. I was NOT happy.
In other news, I'm still ill.
I walked my little brother and sister to school today and I nearly fainting on the way back because my chest was so tight I couldn't breathe. I'm still having problems now.
*looks at the mysterious box on the coffee table* I really really wanna know what is in there...

Still Sick

Wednesday 30 September 2009 |

Still Sick

I was off college again today, my chest still hurts a lot and my throat is burning. It hurts to even drink water. I got my hair trimmed this morning, nothing really interesting.
They finished the loft today. We also finished our commission for Bloom's Ball Gown. More about that will be posted on my cosplay blog tomorrow... or something. I'm really tired, I don't think I'll be getting up early tomorrow.
Seeing Mikey on Friday, only a couple of days now! Yippee! Hopefully, I'll be better by then. I don't like being ill.
WE SHALL DRINK AND WE SHALL SING!!!!!!11oneuno
Hehe <3
Love you Mikey!
I also started watching the new summer anime Princess Lover! today. It's quite good, but the censoring can f'off.
NO SHIMAPAN = NO HAPPINESS!
I love you Nik, by the way.

Love Love,
FreyaFreya

Shinji!

Tuesday 29 September 2009 |

Shinji!





I thought I'd show you guys my new teddy I got at Build-A-Bear. He is a grey wolf and his name is Shinji. He's really soft and huggable (Kinda like Nik.) and really furry. If you push his tummy, his heart beats!

He's so lovely.

Off Sick + Seperate Blogs

I'm off college sick today. I went to bed last night with a weezy chest and managed to fall straight asleep. But then woke up about 10 minutes later, gasping for air because I had stopped breathing. I went to go and see if my mom was awake, but she wasn't so I told my stepdad, Rob, and he gave me his inhaler to use. It helped ^^ (thanks Rob <3)
My mom bought me a muffin ^^ Yum Yum.
She also told me we are going to Build-A-Bear this afternoon so we can all get a bear to celebrate us moving and all the hard work we've put into this house (we have converted the whole loft!) ^^
Right, so, seperate blogs. I've decided this blog is getting over crowded with all my stuff about my life, and my cosplay, and my figures. So I've made this blog my life blog, and two others into my cosplay and figure blogs.
Cosplay blog: http://justagirlwhocosplays.blogspot.com
Figure blog: http://dontforgetaboutusfigures.blogspot.com
I'll post on here when I have updated each blog. Though, the other two won't be updated as much as this one because I don't cosplay all the time and I don't get figures all the time. So yea, seperate blogs!
Love Love,
FreyaFreya

Flat Pack Sux

Monday 28 September 2009 |

Flat Pack Sux

Today, I got up at 7:45 because I recieved a text from my lovely Mikey like he does every morning. Unfortunately, I had to get down from my bed to reach my phone and by that time, had fully woken up. No point going back to sleep...
After my mom dropped the kids off at school, we went over to Ikea to get some stuff for the playroom in the loft. We managed to find a little desk that is smaller than my last one so it would fit when I rearranged my room. But it was bloody flat pack... putting that together was the most annoying thing I'd done in a while. But I managed to do it, only messing up once. DX But tomorrow, or whenever we rearrange my room, I have to put up a flat pack chest of drawers. Save me please...
Well, at least my room is becoming a little more mine. I now have my bed and my desk space. Soon I will have shelves for all my figures. I just wish it was just my room. I don't like sharing. I feel cramped in this room because of all the toys and things that aren't mine. But just having my new desk makes it so much nicer in here.
So hopefully my room will be all nice and sorted out before Mikey comes on Friday. I can't wait to see him. And then I'll see Nik next friday. Plus, I get Pizza Hut so I'm quite chuffed. Yum yum.

Love Love,
FreyaFreya

Say Hello to Nekomon!

Sunday 27 September 2009 |

Say Hello To Nekomon!

Hehe, as you all know I went to the car boot sale this morning. I got:
2 Pokemon Plushies - Raichu and Squirtle
A Gameboy Colour - Purple ^^
A Pokemon game that is really weird, kinda like a Mario set up but you play as Pikachu.
And some Pokemon cards ^^

Yea, on to the cool part of my day. At 1:30pm I met up with Miku-chan =D We went back to the house to wake up Ken and Vicky. That took a little while... But we soon left the house to head over to West Quay to Build-A-Bear. It was so cute in there! All the little teddies and the clothes ^^ But... the dinosaur Vicky wanted wasn't there. So we headed over to Toys R Us to see if there was a dinosaur there. And there was! A huge one! So Ken bought it for her, how sweet ^^ And Miku bought me a little orange kitty we called Nekomon. (Neko = Cat, Mon = from Pokemon, cause we decided he looks like one. A retarded one!) So after we went back home and started to watch Pan's Labyrinth. It looks really weird but I might watch it. But I really enjoyed today. It's really nice to finally have friends near me. But I really miss Mikey and Nik. Mikey will always be my best friend and Nik will always be my sweetie pie.
I love you both so much and I love my new friends Miku, Ken and Vicky!

Love love,
FreyaFreya

Full of chinese!

Full of chinese!

Well, tonight was a rather strange set of events. Miku decided to take me to the small town of Hythe (The one in Hampshire not Kent). So we set off on this tiny little ferry to the town and when we got there we went on this little old train down the pier. It was really old and it creaked. I was really scared. But then we got off to look around the town for a place to eat.
Only to find there wasn't anywhere! There was an Indian place but I don't like Indian and there was a few kebab shops but no where else. So we went to a pub for a drink before catching the next ferry back.
On to find there wasn't one until 8:10pm. So we went back to have another drink.
And missed that ferry so we waited for the 8:40pm one. We stayed put that time. And soon enough we got back on the little old train to get on the ferry and finally got back to Southampton. And we walked though town and stopped off at Ocean Dragon for some chinese food. After eating a plate full of duck and chow mein, we decided to show our faces at home before heading to the bus stop. Vicky came with us to the bus stop and enjoyed playing in the ark. Poor girl doesn't get out often.
And tomorrow, instead of hanging out with a certain dickwad, I am going to the Bear Factory with Miku, Vicky and Ken. Should be very fun ^^
Night night all!
Love Love,

WHY DON'T I GET TOLD ANYTHING?!

Yea, Adam's moved. He moved to bloody Oxford without a word. That really takes the piss. OMG I AM SO ANNOYED! I had plans to hang out with him tomorrow and everything. And he said he text me. Yea. Right. Don't you think I would have gotten that text by now? Hahahahahaha.

Go die in a hole. Plz.

I need a hug. Mikey, Nik, get over here please...

Awesome day and new figure!

Awesome Day and New Figure!


I went to town this morning with my family. We went into the Underground Clothing store in the Bargate centre and they had the most adorable dress ever in the sale rack. So I tried it on and it fit except the zip was broken! I was like, about to cry cause this dress looked so cute on me! ;w; So yea, I was really upset. So my mom took us to Primark and I got new underwear and some awesome socks with little bows on them. Then we went over to Forbidden Planet and I bought a Noriko Takaya figure. She's from Gunbuster.

She has really nice legs.
Like, really long, lovely legs.
Lovely *u*
So yea, and now I am all dressed up, ready to go out with Miku-chan tonight ^^ He's taking me out for dinner, isn't that sweet of him?
Gotta go clean my room now! ><
Love Love,

The girl who blogs too much

Friday 25 September 2009 |

The girl who blogs too much

Hehe, I have jellybeans. ^^
Mikey seems to have some sort of psychic connection to me. It's kinda cool. We first noticed when he said "Feel better." when I was ill but I hadn't even told him! And yesterday, he said I was wearing stripy socks and I was! Today he asked if I was wearing light blue and I have on my blue and white striped top ^^ He also predicted I was wearing a black top the other day and somehow knew I was looking at my chat logs to find out what he was going to give me.
It's kinda freaky but totally awesome too!
It's really comforting writing a blog. It lets me get out things that might be bothering me or whatever and I don't really care who reads it. I love you guys ♥
I've also been looking at lolita skirts! I was viewing the "Dressing Down For Daily Wear" blog over at Lolita Charm ♥ and decided to start making some cute skirts for college and everyday wear. I'm also ordering my first pair of lolita shoes from Bodyline ♥
Also! I'm looking for a Lolita Penpal, I've posted on the LJ community LolitaLetters. If you are interested, go there and find my email address.

Posting at college makes FreyaFreya a dull girl

Ah, the sound of the fire bell tells me it is Friday today ^^ (They set it off every Friday to check it works... like 3 or 4 times a morning)
I got in the car this morning and FUCK, there was ice on the windscreen! >< When did it get so cold? I am NOT looking forward to winter...

So my weekend is set with all sorts of fun plans ^^ Tomorrow I am going shopping with my family. Hoping to get some new shoes to go with the lovely new jeans I got on Wednesday and a Black Parade jacket (I'm not an MCR fan, I just like that jacket >3>)
Then tomorrow evening, I'll be hanging with Miku-chan, possibly just going out for a drink or something. Nothing particularly exciting but still very fun ^^
Sunday I'm going to the car boot sale in Bursledon again, scoping out dance games for my collection. Then Roxas is coming over for a visit ! Exciting weekend ! (♥)

College is boring. It's times like this that make me wish I was still at school. It was quite fun compared to this. ><

BLOG!

God, I was so bored today, I decided to start a blog. And hopefully, I will keep at it >< http://www.dannychoo.com/. I love looking at all the pictures of new figures and his Daughters (the dollfies) ^^ And, of course, all the news about Japan.
In other news, my lovely Nik ordered me the LOVELIEST of little nendoroids.
Meet Miss Miyuki Takara. My very own Lucky Star nendoroid ^^ She's soooooooo adorable!
She comes with a little chair, her bag, a replacement arm and a different facial expression.
KAWAIIIII ><>



I also plan to buy this Miyuki from Ebay, I'm not sure she is genuine but I can't find one from a listed seller so I shall have to do with the one from Ebay.


And I'm ordering this one from JBox in a few weeks. She is a real one, comes out next week.
Can you tell I like Miyuki?
Well, good cause I do.
