Four months later and I make a post! Between this post and last post, I:
- went to KPP in NYC
- was confirmed for an Otakon artist alley table!
- went to the cherry blossom festival with Lily and Illeana, sewed a yukata
- finished up some college credits boosting my GPA for university!
- had many sleepovers with my friend Shelby, including a time we went geocaching and almost died--
- went to Boston, MA to see Nina!
- am now in Las Cruces, NM visiting BT!
In February was the Kyary concert and it was amazing. Nina and I met up in NYC, all dressed up, and got in line for the concert. We waited a long time but it went so fast because we met so many cool people in line and just talked for hours. We met Toshi and Samir! Who are two very cute girls that do makeup and fashion ... the concert itself was so, so fun even though I pretty much died by the middle of it. There were a lot of people all around me and there were moments where the whole crowd would rush forth--(so a lot of bodies just suddenly slamming into both Samir and I).
After the concert, I was able to meet Elleanor from Elleanor's Tokyo on Tokyo Fashion.

Nina and I were staying at her friends' house, who will actually be in Japan at the same time as us in January! Anyway ... our bus ride home as mostly uneventful and we did go to Sunrise Mart and Kinokuniya (and Superdry) while in NYC ... we also went by the Sanrio store in Times Square and I bought a Tokidoki x Sanrio luggage bag, which I've used several times now.
The morning after we got back to Nina's place in DC, we found out that we were accepted into the Otakon AA! Hundreds were accepted, of course, but it was decided by raffle so it's nice to have gotten in! I'm working hard to make a lot of prints (One Piece, mostly... ehe
) and on my Strong World cos & any other cos I decide to make.

In April, Lily and Illeana and I all stayed up for a long time to sew yukatas for the cherry blossom festival in DC. Actually, it was mostly Lily and I wwww... We also gave Illeana a cake that weekend because it was her birthday. The festival was really hot and open shirt binding wearing cos was so upsetting... we ended up leaving early and just sitting at home playing Tera and eating chinese food.
I also recently (May) went to Boston, MA to see Nina again. The first night I was there we went to get shabu-shabu and we had a lot of sushi to go with it. Over the four or five days I was there, we went to a place in Harvard Square called Tealuxe, to a comic book store, to a piercing shop, to Urban, and to this neat little shoe and dance outfit store. We also had curry at H-Mart and boba at Super 88. We met up with my friend Tayla who dropped by Super88 for a few minutes to hang out with us, and that was my last day in Boston, actually... (;_・)
There were other moments, too, like when I lost my phone in Best Buy and had to wait until the next day to retrieve it. The bus ride up was also kind of terrible even though I slept through it mostly... mostly because I had no food, and the heat.... the summer heat is so unbearable but the weather in Boston was so nice. It was always cold (Nina was so upset www) and I loved it since I get too hot easily..
That was a really fun week I had there, and I made a lot of new friends that I didn't know who knew Nina so I sort of.. met them through her! Although she had no idea they were following her.. now we're all friends and it's great ヾ(@† ▽ †@)ノ
Now I've been in New Mexico visiting BT for quite some time and it's so ... so hot here.. but my skin has cleared up a lot because of the dryness of the air... there's no humidity here like on the east coast. We haven't done much so far besides go to PQ Treats every night for soft serve ice cream ... and buy food www. I've bought some things, and some have been online! I recently sent my doll to the faceup artist I'm super loyal to (asainemuri) so that she could give him more birthmarks to clean up his chipped face (he got a chip from Boston... ) and bought him a proper doll bag.
For my skin, I bought Hadalabo Super Hyaluronic Acid toner recently, and Missha M BB cream, since, although I'm clearing up, I'm not super satisfied with my skin still. I might provide reviews for both products when they arrive! ٩(^ᴗ^)۶
