(Re)moving this Blog :)

SO AFTER READING SOME OTHER POSTS... I'M STILL UP IN THE AIR ON IT ALL BUT IT'S STARTING TO APPEAR THAT GOOGLE HAS INFLATED EGO SYNDROME..... I MAY HAVE NOT CHOICE TO PUT MY BLOG SOMEWHERE ELSE AFTER ALL... BUT I'LL UPDATE THIS POST IF/WHEN THAT TIME COMES!

I'm sure this has happened with other bloggers, in fact, I'm pretty sure this is a normal thing I'm planning here. Hopefully by the end of March or early April, this blog will be (re)moved and I will create a new one under the same email that I use for my youtube videos. It gets tedious managing all my subscriptions on Blogger, only to have to log out and log back in on youtube to manage my subscriptions there... it's painful really ｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡ 
So I suppose you all are wondering (or not) what changes I have set up in this new blog? I've been drafting up so many things that I want to start blogging about aside from gyaru, and even then I can't really remember where I left off there! XD but here's a few ideas:

1. My (other) Life - needless to say, my change in tastes has become my new lifestyle. My friends are changing, my social life is changing (for the better!), I'm letting go of a not so awesome past and starting a fresh new path. I'll be doing more reviews, makeup attempts, meetups with new found friends, you name it! I've been completely rejuvenated in the year of the Snake, my year, indeed. Mixing my description from the Chinese Zodiac, my love for Japanese Culture and fashion, plus going back the the natural roots I had long forgotten... should lead to one interesting blog! 

2. My Gyaru Journey - I will continue to call myself a Gaikokujin Gyaru (in training). Yes, saying gaijin is so much easier, but now that I've been saying gaikokujin a few times, it has better ring in my opinion. Plus, it sets me apart: I have yet to come across another blog who also labels themselves as a gaikokujin :) I've been making small steps in my progressm but I admit, I've fallen off the path and have slipped into a more ulzzang style for work, which is more appropriate regardless. But I'm not giving up yet! 

3. My Hair - O.M.Jee my hair has grown so much! In this almost 1 year since my big chop, my hair is about halfway from it's original length! I hope it doesn't do what it did before I cut it, and stay stuck at its original length when I was perming it, the whole point of cutting is all off was so that it'd grow back healthier and even LONGER! So, I'll definitely be doing reviews, hits and misses, DIY stuff, I'm prepared to take full control of my hair care!

4. My Faith - These posts will be more rare, but I feel like blogging about my bumps in the road will help, I keep a personal diary too, so I'm not sure how many of these posts will actually be uploaded... but we shall see :)

5. Healthy Habits - I want to lose weight... like a gazillion other people in the world. I do have a strong belief that the term "gyaru" does not equate to "cookie cutter". You can look anyway, size, shape, and skin color, you have to work with what you have after all! But I want to become healthier not only for the sake of gyaru, but just because it's better in the long run. I'll definitely be posting recipes I come across, what I eat and when I eat, it will help me stay on track a bit more. 

Well, this pretty much sums it up! I contemplated whether or not I should change the name of my blog and I've decided to go ahead and change it once I start working on the new blog (the address is www.hebixhime.blogspot.com (this blog has been closed). but there's just a redirect post for now!) Kaida means 'little dragon' in Japanese, it's also the name of a character I've been working on in various stories of mine ^^. But Hebi means 'snake', and is a bit more fitting to change of pace. I couldn't shake the 'hime' part, it seemed fitting considering think Boa Hancock (aka Hebi Hime/Snake Princess) is kinda awesome in One Piece, so it all works out! So yes, I'll be designing my new blog from scratch, I'll be sure to update here what I come up with! Until then, I'll see you around in the next post!

Happy New Year!

I'm so excited! This is my year, the year of the snake! I'm fully prepared to charge full speed ahead in my life! I hope everyone else has had a good 2012, now let's look  towards a prosperous 2013! I wish everyone nothing but the best as we move forward! I have plenty of goodies drafted up this year so I only ask that you be patient with me :)

Did I mention I hate 'resolutions'? It's like silently setting me up to fail miserably, then put it all off till next year! But this year I can't, there's too much going on!! But nonetheless I at least want to put out a few goals since some major deadlines are coming up!

1 - Complete my community college classes (and look into cosmetology school?)
2 - Further Affirm my Christian Faith (or rant about it)
3 - Further my gal studies
4 - Learn a decent amount of Japanese
5 - Eat right and exercise
6 - Continue my natural hair journey
7 - Re-vamp my blog

Forgive me if the spacing between words is off every now and then, I have an amazing ability to scrape my knuckle so I don't want to destroy my pain threshold  by correcting too many mistakes x.x

But in regards to my resol- er... 'goals', I've already started these ahead of time so I don't really feel like these are resolutions, more like and upkeep of what I've already started. ^^

I also wanted to say I'll be away for awhile, unless I use my phone or tablet to update something REALLY good or REALLY bad just needs to be posted! I've decided to take matters into my own hands with my old laptop and will be swapping out the hard drive and RAM, but I intend to order Windows 8 and and updated Microsoft Office Suite. My laptop overheats really badly because it can hardly keep up with anything I do anymore ;o;. I recently purchased Corel, the video editing software, and the program kept freezing x.x despite clearing out a ton of old files and and programs, the poor thing is still not as fast as it could be. And since I'm know in my family as the girl who loves to take things apart, why not have a little fun with it? The worse I could do is kill it, and save for a new one..... no pressure.

So! With that all said and done, I wish everyone out there a very VERY Happy New Year!!

And OH! Before I forget!! O.M.Jeebus..... I was watching NHK (as I literally ALWAYS do) and they were talking about international takes on Japanese music. Gosh I wish I could remember the name of the program!!! Anyway so this was the guest of the show I think:

And not to be racist, but I was so confused as to WHY this delicious individual was there! I didn't get to see the program from the beginning so I had no idea what was going on, then I learned he was an Enka singer who is half-black, half-japanese (yummy either way!). So! At the end of the show, they had him sing.... and I kid you not, within 3 seconds my jaw hit the floor..... I WANTED TO JUMP THROUGH THE TV SCREEN AND - well, you get the point. He sounds AMAZING! I'm officially in love XD His name is Jero (can't remember the full name at the moment) and I highly recommend you give his music an ear for a few minutes, here's the music video of the song he sung on the show! Enjoy,  because I certainly did!

Goodnight everyone, see you around! And again, HAPPY 2013!!
