why do you get all the fire?

Hi everyone! How are you doing? I know it's only Wednesday, but a lot can happen in a few days at the beginning of the week!

I went out last night, and surprisingly, I feel fine! Usually, maybe i'd feel slightly ew and sick but this morning I just felt really tired and also so so hungry. That's probably worse than feeling sick, as the hunger pain just keeps stabbing at your stomach 'til you do something about it! Last night was Maya, a Cyberdog staff's birthday! She held a Science-Lab style thing at her house - it was rad! She had a UV lamp, and test tubes, and pipettes! AWESOME. And there was something on everyone that glowed under the UV light, so it was cool to see! Obviously I am seeing the UV lights and stuff at work all the time but my hair never glows at work, and it did under her light!

After this, I went back to another Cyberdog staff's house, Rei, with Adam, another Cyberdog staff. They are so funny...we had such a random time at Rei's place! I didn't really drink too much more at this point because I was quite tired, and Rei was just quite drunk and saying the best things! It's been a long time since i've had some drink and sporadically gone back to someone's house or whatever and then slept on like a couch or chair or something. I used to do it so much when I was younger...obviously because we thought we were "cool"! Haha...now i'm so boring compared to this. We ended up watching YouTube movies and listening to some music and Rei and Adam played a Super Mario game or something?

 I keep having random weeks! It's fun though, don't get me wrong! OH. Since he mentioned it, Adam is the one I went for coffee with in the post about Future Map! He read my blog and said "I didn't even get my name mentioned..." So, mentioned now, and also some photos of yourself! :D On another note, I came home today and my new (yeah another haha) d.i.a. top had arrived! I ordered it from the Gal Comm Sales a few weeks ago, and I guess, still due to the bad weather we had it was just backed up. Here it is:

I can't wit to wear it, along with all the other stuff I have! Downside is now I have no mail to wait for :( I did also pick up my new nail art drill and 3D molds from the Post Office the other day, so tonight i'm going to make some new nails, probably a Cyberdog set! I want it to glow under UV so i'm going to paint them with some varnish I can get at work :D!

I can't wait

Hello everyone! How are you all? It's the end of another week! Although I know some people class Sunday as the beginning of the week, as that's what they used to do in the olden days lol. My old, old Restaurant workplace used to do it :s

Today I had such a short and quick shift at work! Only 10am-2pm. Yeah, 4 hours isn't really anything but it feels even shorter when you finish at a time like 2pm! Everyone was like "WHERE ARE YOU GOING?! NO FAIIIR" haha. We had Popi from the Brighton store come and help us today, although I didn't actually see her until I was going! I hope she did okay! Our Camden store is so much bigger, louder and generally much busier than the Brighton branch, but she's fabulous so i'm sure she did fine :D

I'm really hoping that I padd my probation at the end of February! So far I think i've been doing a good enough job, but I guess I just have to wait and see! It would kind of suck to be told that they didn't want to keep me on after i've gotten used to the surroundings and getting on so well with everyone :( I still need to go out for a drink or something with a few people, as I want to get to know them better! Because of the "no-talking" rule at work, everyone is always dying to chat and talk about so much stuff! It will be nice to have a get-together after work sometime! *hint to those of you at work that may read this :p*

Eliana sent me her photos from the Art Exhibiton! And here are some for you to see:

L-R: Claudia, Me, Ryo

Claudia



Ryo

Not loads of photos but at least a few more to save to my computer! Of course, I still really want to see Ryo's photos! :p This week has also seen the arrival of my mail! At bloody last! Some stuff I ordered way before Christmas and just aftert has started to show up, which is great. I ordered some jeans from a Japanese store on Rakuten and they came really quickly! Here's a stock photo as I haven't taken a decent enough photo of my own just yet:


Mine are the ones on the right. My friend is actually coming over tonight to order the ones on the left because she saw this photo on my Facebook wall and loved them!

 They're so comfortable! And look really nice too :D They came with a thin brown belt that you can see in the left picture, but I probably won't use it...so I stored it at the back of my drawer haha. The only other thing to do with mail that I hate besides delayed post due to weather or random stuff, is the the "attempted delivery" notes they leave you! Grr! They are such liars sometimes! I've been home and waiting for things to turn up and they don't even bother to ring the doorbell! Some mailmen don't even both to put the date or time on the note so i have no clue when they "tried" to deliver anything so I don't know if they'll still have it at the depot or not! Grrrrr grumpy Eilish lol. I went to pick up something from the Post Office on Saturday morning and got back home to find ANOTHER note because noone was home...so i'm going to pick it up tomorrow before work. I *hope* it's a d.i.a. top that I ordered online, or some nail stuff that I ordered!

Here is what I picked up on Saturday:


A d.i.a. grab-bag from Lily! Thank you so much!


This makes up for me not being able to get my hands on a 2011 d.i.a. lucky bag! And what do we have?
- Cream t-shirt
-Red long sleeve top with open back
-Gold studded bra
-Black & white print top with black sash and gold hoop detail
-Black sweatpants with pink string, border and print
-Olive onepiece with black bow and gold hoop and chain detail
-d.i.a. eco bag

I'm so happy! I looked and bidded on the 2011 bags online but they're so difficult to get hold of! People have bought 10+ bags and even though one bag retails at Y10,500, they're selling them off for Y20,000 each! I saw a bag online for Y40,000 AND Y70,000!!!! WTF. I won a 2010 lucky bag..bag haha. I didn't realise it was just the bag until i'd bidded but never mind, it's quite a nice bag (even if it does say "NEW YEARS BAG" on it haha)

I also met Caryn, Dec and Kazu (Dec's bf) briefly the other night to pick up the things that Caryn brought back for me from Japan! They were going to Karaoke but I couldn't stay as my funds are low right now (all this shopping I know...) and I was staaaaaarving!




d.i.a. top, egg Feburary and x2 Candy Doll face powder

 It's been quite a d.i.a. week I guess! Oh! And a package came in the mail from Laura! She sent it on December 20th and it's taken nearly a month to get here! I haven't taken any photos but inside came two nail varnishes from HEMA (looove), some fake eyelashes, caramel waffles (yuuuummy!) and a kit to make my own king of sweet stuff! It's a Christmas thing really but I don't care! Still going to make them and post them here! In some other news, i'm going to Oslo, Norway in February to see Monica and Ingvild! I was going to go in the first weekend of March but I had already booked a mini holiday away with my friends in October so I couldn't go :( But i'm going for 2 days or so at the beginning of Feb! It will be cold, but so so lovely to see them both! So, yeah! How has everyone's week been?

Hello everyone! And Happy New Year! Sorry I haven't posted a New Year blog just yet...i'm working on it! It's been in my drafts since the first of January but I haven't got round to finishing it.

Today I went to Kingston with my friend Jess. We went for a drink on Monday night which was nice as I didn't get to see her at New Years in the end :( She wanted to go shopping because she had £60 to spend at Topshop from vouchers she got at Christmas and I wanted to go because even if i'm not buying anything, she's great to hang out with! In the end, I always end up spending the most and bloody buying so much stuff wth!!!

We went to a cafe to eat something and have a drink, and I had a really tasty panini! And a really disgusting "Mocha". Ew. We spoke about so much stuff; I love having girlie talks sometimes! I definitely keep my feelings hidden and only share them if I feel like I should and Jess is one of those people I can share with. Thanks girl!! These are my gets for today, even though I didn't want to buy anything lol!

Ah well, I cleared out my wardrobe recently so I don't mind too much, and the last clothes I bought were from Cyberdog, i.e. work, so I think it's okay for me to buy something more suited to me :D I bought some d.i.a. clothes online a little while ago but the mail over here is screwed up because of all the shit weather we had (snow) all that time ago and because we've had some stupid amounts of Bank Holidays too! We had like 4 or 5 last week and it meant that noone could do anything! Yesterday we got a Christmas card which had obviously been sent way before Christmas! I have some stuff I want to send to Hiromi but I don't want it to get lost or for it to take so long in the mail! I'm worried my things have been lost or something or just stuck in oblivion and won't get to me at all! >.< On the plus side, Caryn is now back from Japan and she bought me these! I'm so grateful, thanks girl!

d.i.a. black fur top. Wanted to buy this in Japan and thought "no I haven't got the money" but happily took out Y10,000 to pay for the Y2-3,000 Tokyo Disneyland Halloween CD a few days later....LOL enough to pay for both!

Candy Doll face powder x2! I ran out and it's like, the most amazing powder. ever.

Just a quick note before I go; I wrote a small article/blog for Electric Trash magazine the other week, please read it if you get the chance! The future is here; Cyberdog

Bye for now!
