Animeland Wasabi!

Hi everyone!

This weekend we had an anime convention here in Colorado. I went there with my best friends on Saturday and had an awesome time!

We also had a Lolita meetup at the beginning of the day, so I was wearing Lolita.

Here's my coordinate~!

Sorry my shirt is untucked! Happy Garden is my dream print, I'm so happy I finally have a chance to wear it at our Easter themed meetup~!

I think I'm not 100% happy with this coordinate, I think I coordinated it badly. Sometimes the ideas I have in my head don't always look right! ^^" But I will have more chances to improve, I hope.

The meetup was really fun, my comm and I met at Skate City. Some of us skated, which was totally awesome! Some other people preferred to stay out of the rink, and I understand why, since it was easy to fall while skating.

The con was really fun. I ended up drinking a little too much, haha! At the end of the night, my friends and I changed into our kigurumis and danced at the rave. I've never been to a rave before, it was pretty fun!

Me, Jamie, Ariel, Elizabeth and Rae <3

Overall, it was a super fun experience and I had a great time.

I'm really excited for Nan Desu Kan already, even if it's in September. I'm planning on cosplaying Android 18 from Dragon Ball Z, but I think I will be wearing Lolita for the other two days! (Better start saving for it now, haha.)

In other news, school is going okay, but I'm really stressed out about my classes! I have my Chinese midterm tomorrow that I'm really scared for, I am studying for it now. I also have a whole bunch to do to get ready for my summer and fall courses.

I spent all of Easter in bed with a cold ;A; I still have a fever and a sore throat. I always get sick after going out anywhere. I'm sad I wasn't able to spend any time with my family.

My anxiety is really bad right now, I'm having some trouble calming down almost all of the time. I get wigged out at the smallest thing, and I can't stop thinking about all my worst memories from the past. I sometimes feel like I shouldn't even try to keep going anymore, since I've messed up so much.

I am trying to work through my problems, and hopefully I can have some better days ahead. I just have to try harder to do better than I have in the past! Tomorrow is always a new day.

Thanks for reading! ♥

Bedroom Renovation~! part 1

Hi everyone! Long time no blog post. Sorry about that, but I've been really busy with school and lots of stuff has been going on in my life ;A;

Since I've been really busy and pretty depressed and alone in my apartment, I've been ignoring cleaning my room for ages now. But we had a blizzard come in and, forced to stay inside, I finally unfucked everything!

It took a lot of cleaning, six loads of laundry, four bags of things to donate, and lots of vacuuming. I also got new furniture for the first time in five years! Well, it's not really new, it's from the 1960s, but it's new to me! I was able to donate all my old furniture to loving homes.

Here's the before picture:

...

yikes.

I know, it's really bad and super disgusting, which is why I slept on the couch for weeks because of it. Please don't judge me too much.. ;__;

I started with my clothes. I went through all of them and separated them between what I wanted to keep and what I wanted to donate. After that, I went through the 'keep' pile and separated them for laundry. I've only three loads left now! Which is great, considering I started with nine, bleh.

I then had to clear everything off and out of my dresser and desk and moved my bed (now sheet-less) to the other side of the room. Then came the furniture. It took two hours, but my dad and I moved it all in!

Next was putting everything back in its rightful place. I organized all of my closet space for this as well.

Here's what it all looks like now:

so much nicer!

i actually have a desk now! sorry for the weird light.

my poster is much happier now.

Wow! I can't believe it's the same room. Can you?

I also fixed my bed up nice, with the help of my furry friend!

excuse the easel

mreow?

However, I'm not 100% happy with my bed yet. I'm getting an iron bedframe from my grandmother (that she used to have in the 60s!) and hopefully a new comforter cover and pillow shams. I'm also planning on getting some flower garlands and wrapping them around the headboard.

plans !

One day I will probably get a full length mirror and some curtains, but since my living situation isn't exactly permanent anymore, I will probably wait on these things.

Thank you for reading! I'll be sure to give you an update when I change my bed.

I'm so glad my bedroom is finally as clean as the rest of my apartment is. When I move, I'll probably just move all of my figures into my room. There's an anime convention this weekend and I hope they will have some DBZ stuff for me to add to my collection!

Thanks for reading, see you soon! ♥

Introduction Post ヽ(〃･ω･)ﾉ

Hello friends!

My name is Scout and I live in the United States. I'm 20 years old, and turning 21 on the 27th of April. I'm a sophomore in college.

(...")

I like Japanese Street Fashion (like Lolita,) but I usually wear very casual/tomboyish things on the day to day. I also really like drawing, reading (books, comics & manga,) watching movies (especially Studio Ghibli,) lots of terrible(totally awesome) music, weird television shows, spooky things, some anime (DBZ,) the occult, history, astrophysics, video games, flowers, and my black cat. I also have a mild obsession with a band that doesn't even exist anymore and some television shows that aired before I was born.
                                                                       
I'm currently learning Mandarin and I'm taking level three at university this semester, and plan to take my HSK exam in May. My Chinese name is 苏珂 (Soo Kuh).

Though I try to focus on the positive aspects of my life, I also have negative ones (like everyone else.)

What's Eating Gilbert Grape

While I have many flaws and disadvantages, there are many things in life that I want to accomplish! My active quests are to write a comic book, to become fluent in another language, to build a fantastic Lolita wardrobe, to amass an even bigger collection of figures, to graduate college; and finally, to be able to live with myself.

As you can see, I have a really long way to go. But that's the point of it all, isn't it?

I hope that I will find meaningful things to say in this blog. Thanks to anyone who is reading it!

Love always.
