31/10/11: Halloween

Hi hi!

Apologies for the unmentioned hiatus back there! Just after Halloween I got sick and then super busy for work, and just generally too tired to do anything that required any kind of patience >.<. I still love you guys! Just sorry to keep you waiting for my next post! As i'm behind, i'll write the entries I was going to write all that time ago to keep you updated into my life :)

My phone went on a big fuck up too, and is only just working again, so I can actually transfer photos from my phone again!

Anyway, in my Halloween related blog post, I mentioned my outfits that I was going to wear, and photos shall be here! First up though is the Pumpkin I carved; and step-by-step, here's how I did it!

Pumpkin; plain, obviously

I drew the design I wanted with a board marker, as it came off easily if I wanted to change something

Next, I cut a hole in his head!

Seedy hat

Seedy insides!

Seedy bag. Unfortunately I didn't keep the seeds for bread or muffins as I wouldn't have had the chance, so I threw them away >.<

Next it was time to cut out the design

Complete..or?

NOW finished! He lost a tooth and some other bits in the carving process >.<

He proudly sat in our hallway for a week or so until he practically fell in and went moudly haha. I hope everyone else's Pumpkins went okay!

And for Monday 31st? I was boring and just did make-up:

we mixed up sooo many fake blood capsules underneath my till  that week...

Ahh, purple hair. I may as well mention that i'm blonde again! I needed to do my roots anyway and kind of just went along and bleached it all. I also bought some silver hair dye which didn't exactly work, but my hair is fairly white at the moment :)

And that's all for now! I shall bring the next installment shortly!

o-b-a-k-e

Hello, hello, hello!

It's nearly 11pm here in crappy old London, and I thought I would bring a blog to you all! Since I last posted, I've been super busy at work! Halloween is essentially our Christmas, as it gets mad busy! The last few weekends have been great, and people have seriously been thinking ahead for Halloween this year! We had some DJ's in the store on the 15th doing a pre-party for an event called Sinistry. It was like a VS I think? But I couldn't really tell, I was mainly trying to serve all the tonnes of customers in my tiny Accessories space!

I can't believe how quickly each month goes by..like, I swear it was only Summer not so long ago! Then again, our Summer was rubbish and was late and then lasted a few weeks (if that). I can't wait to be back in Japan again at some point either. It's been playing on my mind recently and it's kind of depressing knowing i'm not there this year! So, back to Halloween stuff! I wasn't really sure what to do this year, as I've never really done a whole lot for it. When I was in High School, I just stayed in and would have the kids knocking on our door and stuff (really hoping they'll leave us alone over here in N.LDN!) and that's it really!


For Halloween I bought this Jasmine last outfit last week and it arrived like, within a few days! It's really see-through though..haha. I bought it as I wanted to dress like Mimi, the girl who pretends to be Jasmine from Bunny Girl Gal Circle:

It's not entirely the same outfit, but hey, I just wanted something similar :) Hmm...now which day to wear?!

invasion!

Hi everyone!

Today I moved in properly with Adam! All my stuff is here now, including all my Hello Kitty plushies.. ;D I also brought round my N64 (yes, I'm a geek), Gamecube...actually, I had so much more stuff than I realised, and it was mainly clothing! I had a mini clear out, which I will finish at another time, for clothes I'm going to throw away and clothes I'm going to give to a charity store.

I realised just now while typing - Not all of my stuff is here; Adam wouldn't let me take my egg magazines or any of my big books! Meanie :( I have to go back and get my bed at some point, so I'll take them with me then. But anyway, for now, all the stuff I need and want all the time, is here! Adam was like, so happy I swear! My Dad drove us up and after he left, Adam gave me such a huge hug and carried me into the house haha. It really doesn't feel very different now that I'm technically an official house mate, as I've been going back and forth so much!

Off the topic of moving in, tomorrow I'm doing a photo shoot with the guy that did me and Georgie's photos back in April, which will be great as obviously I look a little different, and I love shooting, I haven't done in so long! I'll probably be working with Marc.B again soon on another short film and photos? He always has such mad ideas, it's awesome!

The other night, our friend Ryo came over and stayed the night, and we found a new friend in Tesco!

I can't wait for Halloween to be here already! I'm allowed to have a Pumpkin in the make-up section and i'm definitely putting eyelashes and lots of make-up on it!

What are you all doing for Halloween? Do you have any special plans or outfit themes?
