((This was actually a lot of fun to do! And check out The Wallflowers if you haven't. Bob Dylan's son Jakob sings lead... but not only that the music is just really good... or rather I really enjoy it. Lots of different images and emotions for me))

Another Day Down!




















So I had a day out with my mom and sister today. I dressed casual hime today (puff sleeve chocolate sweater, skinny jeans, heels hairbow, and pearls) We did a lot of shopping... like at the grocery store.... and such. We went to the theater to see G-Force... it was "cute" but not really worth the $9 in 3D.


I also got my hair cut today... see above this picture actually looks a tad Stepford Wife, but I like the new do and it will tease up for hime SUPER well! The layers give it nice volume so I'm happy and I will give it a trial run after my trip to North Carolina. I did my makeup a little different I'm slowly working up to my full hime gyaru makeup potienal I don't want to scare myself... at least it's not manba makeup!





However despite a new do, (which usually makes me feel really happy) my mood is wearing... I suppose I'm just tired from a whole day out and ready to curl up with my Marine Bear, a movie or some Korean Drama and let the next four and a half days slip by... this time on Tuesday Reagan and I will be holding hands in the car on the way from Raleigh to Camp Lejeune... I can't wait!





Anywhos... I also bought some hair extensions at Sally's, well I bought the wefts and am sewing them to the clips myself probably tomorrow so you will get to see the extensions but no full hime updo just yet I think I will save that for after my trip to North Carolina... which I should probably be packing for.

SHH! Don't Tell Anyone!

This is sorta inspired by MaginficantDebra and her secret posts... that and I got an email that reminded me of it.

Back in the day... like since 7th or 8th grade I wrote fanfiction... you know write stories about my favorite characters from my favorite shows doing things that they didn't do or wouldn't do in the show... I wrote like dozens of them (32 I think) with a few hundred reviews and more hits... the ones I think that were the most popular were the many that I wrote for the long running series JAG (which is still one of my favorite shows by the way... even though its over.). ANYWAY! So I got a review for a story today... here's the kicker... I wrote it roughly FIVE years ago... called 2ply JAG... and I just smiled that someone is still getting joy from them!

"littledemonpixie,
A new review/comment has been submitted to your story.
Story: 2ply JAG Chapter: 3.
HAHAHAHA PMSL. I was trying to tell my mum about this but couldnt because Iwas laughing so much,LMFAO My mum loves JAG, she got me into it. HILARIOUS. I usually just readthe romance ones, but this omg hahahhahahaYou did good. I couldnt breathe with the unscrewing of the admiral's chair.PMSFL! ROFL. Welldone on this, really. I always struggle to write comedy, but this was fantastic!!!"


So it made me smile long story short... and if you'd like to read what my mind cooked up... despite its perhaps poor writing style... here's my FF.net profile. I haven't written ANYTHING in forever... but perhaps if I start watching something that inspires me I may take it up again... I have a new series of Fullmetal Alchemist to watch soo we will see...

Anyway that's all for now!

Lolita in the 16th Street


Well last night I went out with Danielle (Phen) in lolita! It was super fun! Even though we got confused on how to catch the lightrail back home! We went the wrong way first and then had to go all the way to the other end, because the F Line stops running at 9pm.... GRRR!

Anyway! So we spent the early evening shopping and just looking around and talking. We had several people ask us why we were dressed up... and as always our answer is "Just because!" *giggles* We also have many "point n' stares" especially middle aged wifes with their husbands... hilarious! I wish they would talk to us or ask of instead of just staring... gosh we don't bite!

We also heard some of the funniest things called to us, a couple were a bit rude.... When we first got there we heard some guy start shouting from across the street, "Hey! HEY! Dorthy! Why you look like that Dorthy!" (Ummm we look nothing like Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz...) And later on another guy, shouted "Hey Bo Peep! Where your sheep at?! HEY!!! Muffit! Come sit on my tuffet!" Yes it was rather rude with vulgar implications but probably one of the funniest ones we'd ever heard!

However there was one guy who was just charming! He was working in one of the hotels around there I think, and when he saw us he goes, "Oh! Y'all are so adorable! Why you dressed up?" we told him. "He goes, "Oh really?! Well I'd love to just whip my outfit out and put it on!" He was joking about actually wearing lolita but he was just fun!

After walking and shopping and walking some more we went to the Cheesecake Factory! We always wondered why it is so dark in that restaruant?? Hmm... anyway, the hostess as she seated us kept looking back to stare at us and she did it so much I was pretty sure she'd strain her neck if she did it too fast! So we sat and enjoyed the bread with some water and then split a GIANT plate of nachos with chicken. They were delicious! Order the Factory Nachos! Then we had Lemon Raspberry Cream Cheesecake! The description was like "Raspberries, Lemon mousse, creamy cheesecake, vanilla cake and raspberry lady fingers..." OH! IT WAS SOOO PERFECT AND DELICIOUS!!! I think I have a new favorite!

Unfortunately we forgot to document the event but I do have a picture of my outfit before I left.

Hime Gyaru Dreams Do Come True...




As you know I can't afford the real brand (Jesus Diamante), but there is a lovely girl I have been talking to in the Hime_Gyaru comm on livejournal that is willing to do a replica of one of my favorite dresses! So I will be able to "cross" something off my wishlist... even though it isn't the brand. It looks like this *points*! (The one in all black!) I just ADORE the neckline!I don't know how much it is going to cost yet but I'm guessing about $150 USD.... which is still a seventh of the price of the real dress!


Once I get it made I will have to get some hair falls so I can do my hair like the girl in black and pink... get ready to tease, comb! Bouffant here I come!


I've also decided to get an iPod... however I'm going to buy it at a pawn shop (gently used and cheaper) and then decoden it since I don't care what the outside looks like! Its gonna look soo good once I can afford the supplies... I'm thinking I can buy bulk rhinestones at Hobby Lobby (since I want to do some nails too) and puff stickers or silk roses and dip them in lacquer so I only need to order the frosting! So when it is done it will look something like this... and if you still aren't sure what DECODEN is look it up! Some of the most adorable stuff on the planet!

Red, White & You!!

So Reagan is pretty much the object of this post. First off I want to find these in a store and send some to him! THEY ARE JUST AWESOME! But I tried all the "HomeShop" parts of sites, called Candy Stores in malls and all other things and can't find them, except ordering in bulk!!! I think they would be just perfect for a care package! If anyone sees them TELL ME ASAP! Or buy me a few boxes and I will pay you back! They will only be on the shelves till Labor Day! They even have little military themed messages on them!!
















Secondly, I got a letter from Reagan today! I just love writing and receiveing letters! I knew it was coming but still it was really exciting to open it and see what he wrote! He writes in cursive.... and SUPER TEENY TINY! It was hard to read.... Turns out he got a new tattoo! He spent half the letter telling me the story of how and when he got it... and didn't say what it was!! I can't wait to see it! Granted I hope its not anything odd... I'd hate to have it excellent chest soiled with a weird tattoo! Cause I friggin love the ones on his back... (I has a thing for back tattoos... in case you didn't know!) And the best part... He signed with his Chinese name too... at least I'm pretty sure that's what it is! Since I can't read Chinese characters...well those ones... I will have to ask him when I write him back! Which I'm off to do now!!




And yes it's on the stationary I made for him.

Midsummer Wonder

So it is July in Colorado! My how the summer is flying by... in a manner of speaking! I was walking with my mother this morning... to get the paper, and we saw some lovely things!
There were two bucks across from our mailbox this morning!
















Also some shots of the lovely roses we have out front and a wildflower or two!



And for some reason this picture doesn't wish to right itself... silly thing!

Hime Gyaru

So today I did pretty much... nothing.

I cleaned a bit.

Went to the gym a bit... and re-styled my blonde cosplay wig into a wig for hime gyaru! It looks good... not exactly the look I was going for... but....

And I know it doesn't look like I'm wearing much in this pic but that's cause it was hot in my studio... so I wore a spaghetti strap top! So not a brillant moment but I was just so excited to share the results! So here's the result! I'm excited to make my dress to match! And I think I will wear it to NDK... hmm...





PS: Hime Gyaru= A Japanese Street Fashion that represents the modern "Princess Gal" So think modern Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty... add a bow or tiara and glitter and glam to the max and you've got Hime Gyaru! I love this style!!
