No more Fiesta

Wednesday, July 27, 2011

So my Vacations are finally approaching.
As I work on a store alone I made a schedule for this week so I could leave everything in order for the person who's taking over me for the couple of weeks I'll be away, I made a quick sketch of what to clean, file and organize in each day. I didn't manage to get anything done today...

I was excited to finally go away from this lonely job and rest by the beach, see places, sleep in late, not having to do chores and play all day long, just hang around without a care in the world... but it seems my plans got messed up.



It's really sad because after months of longing I was finally going to get some gratification, some enjoyment, just for me, without worrying about whether I needed to go groceries shopping, clean the bathroom or deal with impolite costumers, without worrying that I have to choose my path in life, that I have to go take care of my college papers and start a new step, yet again, in my life. It finally was the break I needed.

I don't even feel like going away with my parents to the South for those two weeks anymore, all the joy and excitement I had disappeared, and the emotion has been replaced with a sense of coldness, a void which is neither freezing or burning, just plain mild, constant.
I feel like a line on a blank page. Alone, precise and never fluctuating. Well it's better than feeling depressed right?
But I'll be going on Vacation with my parents and make the most of what I possibly can, I'll clear my head and let myself be happy, even though it's hard for me, because my parents love me, and they've done a lot for me. They don't see me very often so it's a big opportunity, I know if I were a parent I'd like to be with my child more than twice a month.
I love my parents, even though I'm a stray cat and prefer to be left by myself and enjoy my independence, I'm very grateful to them and I want to make them feel loved, so I'm doing this for them.

All of this because I looked at my schedule/list of things to get done, and this Saturday, my last day of work only had one word written in bold.
FIESTA!

Well... I don't think so Tim.

Hope you guys are having wonderful vacations full of happiness and relaxation :)
Once again, thanks for reading.

I love how much expression she puts into the songs <3

I love the story of this one


And this one is simply a Classic, I once heard it in a store at the Mall, awesome right? :D

Over the Top Meeting in Lisbon

Friday, July 8, 2011

[WARNING IMAGE HEAVY]

Some weeks ago there was a Lolita meting which had an Over-the-top theme, so I thought to myself "Hey! What better occasion could I have to finally try out a Hime-Lolita coordinate with my new BtSSB onepiece?"
So I bought a mini tiara (it's a bit cheap, I wanted a different model with better jewels but I didn't have much time to look for it and I wasn't going to spend 15€+ on something I would only wear once or twice for a Hime-theme). I wasn't supposed to wear those shoes, I asked my friend Lyra to borrow her dusty pink shoes but she forgot ahah xD No problem at all, but I think they would look better with that coordinate than my old offwhite shoes :P



Yeah those came a bit over-exposed but I couldn't find the originals... I didn't take any photos :P


With a Mozart-Bust-Man, he was awesome, he asked someone to take his cell and take some pictures of him with us :D






It was fun, we went to Ben&Jerry's to eat some ice-cream and shakes because Castella do Paulo was closed that day. It was a very hot day, so we kinda melted.. and the ice-cream store had their air conditioning broken so we suffered even more D: I had to take my sleeves off or I'd die with a heat stroke.

The afternoon ended with cotton candy. Eli looks so YUM in this picture xD
(I'm the little hand taking a piece)



Have I mentioned that I love feet/shoes/socks in Lolita?
Lyra went with the theme and mismatched shoes :D

Weird thing to show the jewelry.. I decided to make a rock sign still strying to manage to keep my fingers interlocked with my side-mates


The sun was too strong...

Kaaameee...haaameeee~~  AHHH~~
Dragonball? In my Lolita? Also, I was barefoot because the shoes were killing me at that point..



I wish I could spend more time with them, time flies by when you're having fun and it seemed like it wasn't enough for me. Maybe it's because I spend all my days alone and I lack some friendly human interaction, every moment I can spend with friends is precious and I value it a lot. I'm not a very outgoing person, I'm shy and I'm really an introvert with trusting issues but I do feel good when I'm with them.
So if any of you are reading this, thank you for meeting up with me, making me feel welcome and a part of the group and brightening up my days :)

Next post is a change post, so prepare... :P
Kiss

More stuff from previous times

Saturday, July 2, 2011

Hello again,
Today I'm going to post about a casual outfit I wore at work and with my parents. This was a Saturday and I call it Japanese-culture Day! :D
I conviced my parents and boyfriend to come with me for some Tea, Castella and Macarons at Castella do Paulo and afterwards to see a typical Japanese Theater play, Noh, called Sorin.

This was my outfit for the first part of the day, I love pairing sweet black designs with leather and studs for a more rock/punk vibe. I didn't realize at first but when I looked in the mirror my outfit totally looked like something that Deka Wanko would wear to sniff out the bad guys lol :P
My hair deflated since morning because I had no hairspray.. I had too massive ponytail balls of puffness :P



And then I changed clothing for a more sophisticated look to go to the Theater. I ate two types of macarons at Castella do Paulo; a raspberry one and a chocolate one, and finally tried the Green Tea Milkshake. Its strangely good, weird at first but sort of addictive :P


Lol my dad is stealing my milkshake xD He didn't like it though.

YUM

I was wearing a very dead petticoat, just for a bit of silhouette.

I need to buy golden shoes.. I love pairing gold with stuff now, it looks so regal! *o*


The Theater! That chandelier was so big and amazing..

I couldn't take pictures of the play, it was all spoken in ancient Japanese with flutes and drums. It was awesome even though I didn't understand one bit. The Japanese Ambassador explained the story of Sorin before the play started, so I always tried to remember it when seeing the movements, but there wasn't much action so it was difficult to follow..


All in all it was a very tiring but fun day. Thank you Mom and Dad and Boyfriend for the wonderful time :)

Now to another topic; this was a casual Gyaru-inspired outfit I wore for work the other day. I've seen girls in the online catalogues and J-Magazines wearing a shirt with a knot at front, and I have a shirt that is now too big on me and it looks awkward, so I've decided to emulate that look with a jumpsuit. I love jumpsuits now, I didn't even like them but they grew on me because of Lolita salopettes and now the cute jumpsuits I see in Gyaru have stolen my heart!
I need to get some cute heeled sandals, really <_<




I'm sorry about the extinguisher.. this was taken at work and I have better lighting in this part of the room.
And that's it for this post, next time I'll be posting some pictures about my first Hime-Lolita try :)
Thank you once more for reading <3
