So Many Happy Feels!!

Yahoooo! Another con is just around the corner!!!! This time will be a bit different though, I'll be taking my little sister (self-proclaimed) to her first anime convention! You can't tell, but she's ridiculously excited - she has this funny trait where if she's really happy, she'll hug you with a straight poker face (it gets creepy sometimes though...). I don't think there will be a gyaru meetup this time (I know a few who are going just to go), but I still want to look kick-ass-tic on Saturday, plus I've made some decent progress on my make:

This was the progression pic I posted on the Black Gyaru Facebook Group. I've customized two of my Red Cherry Lashes to make them fuller and longer along the band to enlarge my eyes! And I'll be sure to do a review of these new lenses I'm wearing too... I PROMISE THIS TIME! The only thing I was criticized on was my for my nose, blush, and my eyebrows >< Once again the blush got drowned out in the picture but the other two points were valid. I'll be practicing on my contour some more but I submitted another picture specifically asking for opinions on my eyebrows to the group after trolling youtube for hours as I was twisting my hair one night. This was my result when I went to church the next morning:

They're bold, and I was quite surprised how they turned out on me since when I used to get my brows done, I would request they be on the thinner side. Everyone loved what I did with my brows, so I can't wait to put this look with my full gyaru make! I'm not going to lie though, the eyebrows by themselves take bloody forever to perfect X.x so I have to watch my time closely when I'm doing this look. But overall I really do love it, I'm sure it will look amazing then I perfect my contouring! :D

I've also done a bit of shopping clothing wise:

Ebay.com

Dots.com

I obviously will be wearing a long-sleeved shirt under this, it's too cold otherwise!! The shirt is a 2X so I bought the belt from dots to define my waist line :3 I was surprised (and a bit happy) to see Miyabi wearing the exact same shirt in a post on Facebook!! But I'll be wearing this on Saturday with black jeggings.... All black errthang! I 'm developing an addiction for anything with black - 'cept black and orange. I'm keeping my clothes uniform color for another reason as well.... 

Etsy.com

My nails have arrived!!! It sounds like I'm cheating, but considering that there's no one in my area who does 3D nail designs, I went to my favorite little handicraft site - www.etsy.com. My new favorite shop is Kawaii Claws! The seller makes tons of styles from Hime to Rokku - She's sure to have something for everyone :) I already have at least two other orders I want to place in the future! Also, if you send her pictures of you wearing the nails (even if it's just your hand) you are eligible for a 10% discount on your next order!! I can't wait to put these babies on!! Check out the Kawaii Claws Etsy Shop and the Kawaii Claws Facebook Page!! 

Here's another awesome moment in my life:

I posted this originally on the Natural Hair Facebook Group <3

I can't believe it!! It's almost been one year of being natural! I'm soooo happy mom doesn't call me a boy anymore! XD I'm not going to lie, this has been a struggle. Since I got my hair cut, I broke the beauty salon addiction and learned on my own what my hair likes and doesn't like. Once I get the new site up, I'll definitely be posting more on my hair and my hair care regimen!

Let's see what other interesting things have been going on between my last post and this one...
1. I've developed some space with one of my best friends - we still talk, but I feel like I'm taking a much needed break.

2. I actually get out more with other friends and co-workers! It's been really fun, I even have a dinner date with an old friend from high school tonight!

3. My aunt passed away shortly before Christmas, she was very affectionate and sweet and this month was her birthday month. I'm just glad she's in paradise now...

4. My grandfather turned 101 last month!! I hope I get that luck of the draw somewhere!

5. My ex and I are talking again and ONLY talking. I apologized for being such a psycho after the split... but I really do want my wedges back still dammit! I also clarified that this is a clean break; he thought that once he got back on his feet, I would be running back to him... nuh-uh sweetie! He has to work this time, I'm not dropping into anyone elses arms ever again! DX

So this pretty much sums it all up, my next post will be somewhere around the time of the convention... also by then I will have made my decision as to whether or not I'll be staying with Google, or being proactive and moving my blog to Wordpress.org. I've seen numerous posts about Google not meeting the needs of their users, I want to avoid any issues before falling in any of their little traps. But we shall see, I'll make sure to set aside a post for my decision... keep your fingers crossed guys!!
