I'm back from a short absence, school started about a week ago and i've basically had a mental breakdown each and everyday after school so it's been complete hell the past couple of weeks~
I won this watch in one of their facebook giveaways c:
Ratings~
shipping ~ 4.5/5 The watch took about a month to come but that's understandable since it was comming from Belgium which is a great distance away from where I live
Quality~ 5/5 The donuts are so cute and perfectly made! The watch is the perfect size and is very well made.
Value~ 5/5 I got it for free c: the original price of the watch wasn't very expensive either ~
Pictures~
The package
The inside of the package was covered in bubble wrap so nothing would get broken~
what was in the package ~
Cute business cards~
The watch it's self was packaged in bubble wrap also~
Hello ladies and gentlemen! I went to the beach sometime ago with my family.
We got ice cream and then walked around the beach a bit. I ended up collecting all these rocks, bits of shell, and sea glass as i was walking around, but i was looking for one particular thing, a rock with a stripe all the way around it. My aunt had given me one the her friend Gloria gave her, the premise of the rock is that you're supposed to make a wish on it then pass it on, then that person will make a wish, ect. These rocks are supposed to be rare but I found A TON. I probably would of found more is it wasn't high tide.
Here are some pictures~
I hope i don't bore you all to death.
One of my favorites~
The rest of the rocks and seashells I found. I forgot to bring another bag for them so i had to use my pocketbook, which is still covered in sand '~'
I like the spots on this one~
This one was small, really smooth, and has fine green lines running around it
Now, there are ALOT more than these but it would be to boring if i showed them all;
I'm not going to tell you what I wished for on my 10+ striped rocks, However one of my friends probably knows what I wished for *cough cough Racquel*
I wished for the SAME THING on all these rocks so I hope it really does come true ♥
All the stores have all their school supplies out right now!
NOT TO MENTION HALLOWEEN ITEMS!
I swear I saw Christmas items as well!
So, this blog is sotra a time line of how my mind has changed and my tastes. I get caught up in different fandoms and shows. Also tumblr has led me to discover new things. I like to do these kind of posts from time to time because others can see what else I'm about!
1. Sharon Needles
I can't make a whole post about this, because it would probably NEVER END.
Who is Sharon Needles? Sharon Needles is prefection. To sum it up she won my favorite show RuPaul's Drag Race seanson 4. I cheered for him/her since the first episode~
Right now I'm obscessed with his youtube videos and song " Hot Couture" (I am listening to that song as i write this! but it just ended, hehe)
3. Madonna
Welp, I always had this grudge against her, but her music is so god damn catchy!
One reason I hated her was because she is a hippocrate and still is. She won't let her kids watch TV because she doesn't want them to see her outrageous acts or something!
Grr, but my tracks of the day are~
I like lady gaga better though~
4. Instagram!
I'm Lalathekawaiicat~
Also Phi Phi O'hara (another fabulous drag queen I admire) saw a sketch of her I posted. I nearly had a heart attack when I saw that she liked my post and commented on it, I was talking to my friend Anna at the time (HI ANNA IF YOU'RE READING THIS! Sorry bout' mentioning you, lol)
AWWWW YEAH
5. I'm on twitter guys!
I won't tweet much because I really don't know what to say, I'll mostly be using it to send fan art to people.
Yup so until I think of some more stuff to write about i'm just gunna make this filler post. Wait does that sound right?~ Yes? No? cross out//
I've just been making changes to my blog like tags and everything. Which should be over here--->
(unless you are reading this post sometime after i post this then i'm sure you can see it even if it's down here or something~ You don't need a map
Le new tags~~~
fairy kei~ MY PASTEL GOODNESS CATEGORY.
fashion finds~ You all don't know this but I have a habit of not closing the tabs of stuff i'd like to order or can't loose my place in, I've actually been fighting this addiction by moving them all to my favorites TT^TT, but that just clogs up that section. So now i just make the "fashion find" kind of posts so i can always sort of have them while not saving them on my computer anywhere ~ YAY i have finished my point and you may all have a freshly baked cookie.
craft-update~ As well as anime i also do a lot of 3-D items a.k.a. crafts and such.
review~ I will admit, as well as my million-tabs-open-at-once addiction, I also have an EBAY/ONLINE SHOPPING addiction~ At least I know I'm not alone with this one. Get ready foranother long explination. Before I order from shops off of eBay I often look for reviews of their store. WELL GUESS WHAT, not everyone has done a review of exactly what you want to order, this happened when i ordered from kawaii goods and cute-plush (they didn't even have any!). So I thought just a simple little review would be better for someone to see then be parinoid of nothing when ordering.
anime~ Yup, but don't get too excited. There is only 1 post (Anime Boston Aftermath ) in here! That's all this category is really going to be used for, anime con pictures. You all saw what happened to the "anime con" PAGE didn't you?
for fun~ Memes, little fun posts, ect.~
old~ HMMMMM~ all my old, useless, posts, that are boring, from when i started blogging, when I was <insert age here>, FACE PALM. If you think you're going to find juicy black-mail worthy posts guess what you're wrong. YOU WILL DIE OF BOREDOM, REALLY, I DID WHEN I HAD TO RE-TAG ALL THOSE POSTS. Also I am removing my "bio: Gumi Megpoid" and "Hatsune Miku drawing " posts because, as crazy as it sounds, THEY GET THE MOST VIEWS!!! WTF, seriously, two posts that are both horrible, bad art (that looks like crap) from when I started anime and a cummy bio of a character I didn't know squat about then, shake my head. I'd like my blog to be known for pastel, kawaii, fashion needs and not 2 year old drawings and unhelpful posts that even look promising.
Another change comming to my blog is~
GRAMMAR AND SPELLING!!!!!!!
For your reading and my improvement in typing skills. YAY!
Also I discovered the all mighty
STRIKE-THROUGH!
Which I have been abusing this whole post (sorry, there goes grammar)
And,
if you haven't noticed I've been more active posting on my Deviant Art because I now have a system of claiming my property while still not splatering my URL's and name all over them.
shipping~ 4/5 i did cheap shipping as always but this came in about 1 1/2 weeks (which was in it's arrival range) but i've recieved their packages faster than this if you look at the other reveiws i did.
quality~ 5/5 the wig,,,, oh my god the fibers looked nice and natural, dullish and not fake shiney
value~ 5/5 the wigs were VERY CHEAP, they had great quality like I mentioned already. The phone charms and keychains were also very cute and cheap
Pictures
a $3 or $4 hair clip in extention in gray-pink (sorry about the lighting, it wasn't natural like usual)
here is a close up of the fibers, the hair extention was L.O.N.G! awesome!
the hair extention did shed a little though ;;;
This bag contained the key chains and phone charms, they were both only $1
all wrapped up
An orange ice cream cell phone charm. The love chocolate fell of so i had to re-glue it. Then it fell off again. And aain. And again -_-
the other keychain I got was this chocolate cake or doughnut.... nothing has fell off yet
The bag holding hese charms was hard to find because it was in between the wigs so i had a little heart-attack when i opened the package.
Now what you have been waiting for, my fabulous $13 wigs!
I bought two because the pink one on the left is going to be a present for one of my fairy kei buddies ~
also for reference this is wig 013 on the website
It came in a hair net contained and protected
one side was curlier than the other but this was before i fixed up the wig
The only con about this wig is how the pigtails are tied,,
you can easily see the rubber band so you have to style the wig just right so the hair will cover it.
I just wished they used a clear or purple one.
now hear is the wig I got for someone else, there won't be as many pictures because i didn't want to mangle it too much;;
it was a wonderful bubblegum color, i thought about keeping it but i already have a pink wig
i haven't posted in a while because i'm so busy with school ending, tests, finals, studying, ect.(and my last anime boston post that was a mile long)
i ordered a new wig from bodyline so i'll do a review some time
i also had time for decoden, i made a phone case , i'll be doing a post about what steps i went through to make it. I made it maybe a week or so ago, AND IT'S STILL NOT STANK'IN DRY!!! well, it's a little soft and i'm afraid of it getting messed up or poping the outside and having it explode like a pimple, if that makes any sense~ but yesterday I finally said screw it and just put it on your phone so yea, i'm trying to be careful not to ruin my work. Now on to the fairy kei.

i am hunting for some cute pastel tops!!! will anyone help me?
i think bodyline has a small selecltion. Also if your nice enough to help me i'd also like to say none of that 80's care bear junk (sorry bout' it ) i'm just the pastel side of fairy kei. the only 80's twist I do is converse, but mine are black so , yea.
I have been working so hard on art lately (wait, am i?) because i went to to open studio events in 2 towns the past 2 weekends and saw about 100 different artists? very inspiring. I even learned about things like ecaustic... it's bees wax mixed with resin, i think i might try it. It really gives a vintage feel. 2 mixed media/ collage artists used it over old styled photos.
back to my crafts now
1. plushies
a pink cake
dorian the dog
a green tea bag
i ended up using a more forest green to make this because i didn't have the right shade >^<
BUT, after i made it I went to micheals to get other things and saw THE PERFECT SHADE!
RAGE!!!
oh, also all these plushies are made of felt and are featured in the book Softies
2.lolita hat
ugh, I hate, as you all know, that it can't seam to import photos the right way!
2.giltter signs
one of my favorite words
done in martha stewart rainbow glitter
done in martha stewart pink and green glitter
4. cat ears
I made 3 pairs for the convention, one for me, my mom, and my aunt.
I FREAK'IN LOVE THIS FABRIC!
However I will not saw where i got it.
*it's fake fur by the way*
I was so honored.
At the con some guy asked my mom:
"Where did you buy your cat ears? I love them!"
them she said
"My daughter made them"
oh my god, *O*
4. crochet sushi roll
I recently just learned to crochet so this was my first project
quality 5/5 origami paper is shiny and embosses with wavy and star designs, straws are thin and easy to work with
value 5/5 i ordered about 100 pc of both the paper and straws and it cost under $5
pictures
le package
if i remember correctly, the straws and paper were wrapped carefully with 3 layers of bubble wrap :)
what i wasn't expecting is that they gave me a sample of a straw star! very pretty and nice, too bad they're hell to make! but if yoou go to their ebay page they have posted 2 videos with subtitles showing you how.
several colors
next up 2x2 shiny origami paper!
star embossed
ok, before i go on, here are some cons about this paper....
1. i found that the colors of the paper did not match the listing picture
i don't know if it was the lighting they took it in but it's not like i'm sad or anything. also to actually find this listing on ebay i searched "2x2 purple crane paper" or something like that, but the pack only has white, blue, yellow, green, and pink. while the photos shows something like purple, pink, green ,white, peach, and yellow.
2. the number of colors where uneven, say, blue had 40 pc and white had 25 pc
3. also there are 2 different embossings, stars and wavy lines, so it takes extra effort to make cranes match.
