winter comiket

so today went back to comiket with zac! we got there maybe 12:45ish idk

even though it was the first day surprisingly there wasnt as many ppl as last time?? last time i went in the summer with crocs guy yech and got there late n we didnt really have much time to look around cuz most booths were closing up. but got her early to make sure we check out everything! i think it was less crowded this time cuz last time it was a saturday or something i went instead of some random weekday. by the end of the day i swore it was friday then im like wait its tuesday??

anyways go to see the merch first but this time all i saw was yaoi. thats it. idk if they have different stuff different days or what but like 90% of the comics there were boys love. last time saw some yaoi but just like a random corner but more variety n hentai n stuff but not here. saw some x rated looking yaoi though like dang idk how the ppl who run those booths proudly display these pics of guys handling their material and be like yep i drew that.

lol my poor friend had to see some unfortunate stuff but its not like he was the only boy so w/e

i didnt really take pics inside cuz idk if ur allowwed to cuz if you take pics of anything i guess ur 'suppose' to ask for permission but it aint like im gonna be buying this stuff so eh

anyways to da cosplayers!

lol bobobo

he asked if i knew the show n im like 'ehhh kinda' i never watched it but i know who he is n how its a weird show

yeah lots of cosplayers as usual thats always fun looking at them. didnt see lady beard this time tho.

there was this alphonse elric cosplay that was amazing like its prob the best one ive ever seen(not that ive seen a lot but it wasnt crappy looking or anything) and i wanted to take a pic but the guy was busy or didnt want pics taken or something idk what he was doing but he said sorry so :( but it was perfect

you see lots of touken ranbu and love live cosplays

i tried soooo hard to find a hakuouki cosplays n when i finally gave up i see kazama so i go up to him and hijikata was there too but the guys were kinda ugly so ehhhhh lol

heres some diabolik lovers

i took a pic of a dif diabolik lovers ppl and they gave me pics of their cosplays cuz i guess they wanna be more well known n stuff n gave me n zac candy too and asked stuff like where im from ect

heres their pics

so thats basically my only souvenir from this trip but you just go for the experience.

when me n zac were looking for food but there was nothing good we went up the escalator then i see roxas n axel cosplayers n im like omg i need a pic so when we get to the top we go back down but then they go up the escalator n im like oommgg r u serious then im like forget it. but waahh i love kingdom hearts

anyways we go home basically when its over even tho theres still lots of ppl

on another note i did my roommates nails uta no prince sama themed cuz its her fav. i did see a group cosplay of them too but the sun in the background ruined the picture cuz u cant see anyone

she likes ranmaru and reiji the best so each hand is for them

reiji looks kinda derpy but she likes it so thats all that matters

on christmas did NOTHING such a lame christmas T_T

BUT i have a job @_@

i applied for forever21 in shibuya n got it i guess cuz i have to g to the orientation next week. idk how many hours i get but hopefully enough to fill my day so i can make $$$ but i'll still look for stuff on the side

back to otomate cafe~~

so before otomate cafe, the day before(monday) had to go to roppongi to meet this guy for an interview for art teacher

idk its art teacher/normal teacher for little kids. honestly, dont care to much to teach or about kids but its REALLY good pay plus its prob not that hard of a job so eh why not

but idk how it went it was just okay but maybe they will find someone more experienced

then since its my first time in roppongi i was gonna look around but idk i was hungry but decided to just eat in shibuya but as im writing to my mom some guy goes up to me trying to pick me up or w/e like he wasnt old prob somewhere in his 20s but idk he prob does drugs n stuff he looks like he would

i told him i dont really speak japanese but he was persistent and didnt leave even though he doesnt really speak english lol. he kept saying im kawaii and perfect LOL so just cuz of that im like i guess i can stay around instead of telling this guy to get away. he wasnt ugly but he wasnt hot either. he has bad hands tho. srry i guess its a manicurist thing that i notice this stuff but his hands were really dried out n he had black nail polish that was really chipped n crooked long nails n im thinking 'oh man this guy needs a manicure' but anyways he kept talking yadda yadda then wants my contact info n im like i guuueeessss hes cool enough for it. but he seems nice enough and likes anime at least. hes like some accessory designer or something. like he gave me a drawing of a cat like its cute but so amateur looking but i saw some other drawings n even though its not the best art i think its unique and some are pretty cool actually

and then im like im going to shibuya n he didnt follow me even though he wanted to go to starbucks or something with me. but before we split hes like can i shake ur hand?? and he was all happy dork

anyways i eat at yoshinoya in shibuya and go to the thrift store cuz i need a new purse but they didnt have anything good. i need to go to the super book off where my grandma lives cuz they have a ton of purses there  

anyways, next day had an interview at forever 21 and i think it went really well! it was in all japanese but the guy was speaking simple enough for me to understand. hope i get the job even though its not as good pay as the teaching but 1) i will get to practice more japanese and 2) make friends with other cool ppl my age. the teaching job is prob just normal white ppl. i want kawaii fashionable japanese friends XD

after interview me n my roommate headed to akihabara for otomate cafe whoop!!!!

this was her first time but she liked it and this time it was all full but we were able to get in without reservation

my first drink was a black berry soda from psychedelic butterfly i think

with a beast king or w/e coaster

it was really good and tasted like blackberries as you may have guessed

and my roommate got a hakuouki okita drink

and amnesia coaster

i got a sip and it was like a melon flavor

my roommate ordered i think an amnesia dish of chicken, veggies, and rice

and i ordered this sandwich thing from code:realize

it reminds me of a breakfast sandwich cuz the bacon and egg

also got a hanayakanari waga ichizoku coaster. the ova was SO GOOD but no one seems to know about it???

afterwards, need to get dessert!

roommate ordered another hakuouki item which was yamazakis parfait which is ice cream, red beans and macha stuff but i dont like macha

and she got a toki no kizuna coaster and i got a hiiro no kakera coaster n she likes that so we traded weeeeee!!!

i ordered another drink too even though i prob didnt need it cuz i was full...BUT IDC

so my drink is a melon soda with ice cream which is shins from amnesia

and got a pudding parfait from i dont even know some game i never heard of cuz it doesnt seem popular i just bought it cuz it looked good, and it was!

it was pudding, brownies, fruit, whipped cream and cereal

omg i was SO FULL by the end i ate waaayyy too much

lol we were like the last ppl to leave

but of course had to take more pics ^_^

me with ayato

i use my chinese photo editor app cuz my hair looked really yellow in the original but the app really blurs everything :/

anyways went to kotobukiya to walk off the food and there my roommate(her name is maru) ran into her other friend n they both really like uta no prince sama so they bought some folders or w/e i was gonna buy these stickers cuz they were only 50 yen but i didnt have a 50 yen n i didnt feel like splitting a $10 for something thats 50 cents plus its not like i NEED it so decided not to buy

but man like i was stuffed to the max i was so full i couldnt walk so they went to animate but im like im just gonna sit outside my stomach doesnt feel well

and maru bought some other utapri CD or dvd or something then her friend left then we just decided to go home n idk i was really sleepy on the train like i literally almost passed out like my head is bobbing everywhere but at least i stay in the middle it pisses me off when im sitting on the train n the person next to me is falling asleep and keeps bouncing their head everywhere n sleeping on my shoulder n stuff

anyways when we get home i wash off my makeup then take a nap for like an hour. maru naps too idk i guess the food made us tired. but i didnt have dinner cuz i didnt need it but she still went out to eat

anyways, so today its raining n cold n the perf day to just stay in bed with hot chocolate n watch a movie. and that exactly what i did. 

waaahh im not doing anything for christmas im gonna be a loser. so sad T_T

friends

so been with different friends this week

on wednesday had another recording job for a couple hours then went to an izakaya to see friends from school to celebrate end of skool and just catching up with everyone

we had lots of food we split with eachother but heres a dessert i got that was really yummy.

the bar was really nice n fancy and japanese style like it had kabuki and sumo paintings on the wall and bamboo and stuff and not too expensive too

so after talking and playing games and stuff we left around 10:30

but took a group pic first

omg and my friend claire is coming back to japan next month im so happy!!!!

but im having problems with my other friend cuz he doesnt want to hang out anymore cuz his gf dont like it when we do....

anyways, friday hung out with alisa and dyed her hair like pinkish purple. took like 4 hours and also cut her hair but shes happy with it and payed me yay

afterwards we were going to go to a christmas party but it was basically over by the time we got there so picked up her friends there and ate a late dinner with them at gustavs and i got sooo full. this was like the latest ive eaten dinner which was like 10pm 

then its like 11:30 when we're all finished and head to the train station n its soooo coollldddd and all i have is a jacket n cardigan so im freezing

this place is like an hour away from home lately ive been coming home past midnight i feel really bad about it for my roommate

anyways once i get to shibuya to switch trains idk but its like super jammed packed i guess cuz its a friday so everyone is going home late so i wait for the next train, then th next, then the next, but tey are always full and i dont wanna be squished but whatever its already like 12:20 and idk when the last train is so i just go on and its not so bad but yeah

anyways by the time i get home was like 1:30 am and wash my face n go straight to bed

oh and me n my roommate r prob going to the otomate cafe on tuesday wheee and i have an interview for art teacher on monday idk i dont care to teach but i like art and its really good money so..and also will have an interview for forever21 soon idk the date yet

and yeah....no plans for christmas waaaahhhhh

girls night out +1 boy

heres my new nails btw. i usually do generic christmas nails u'd see on the internet n i hate that so looking through my nail mags i found something nice. the plaid took forever but i think it turned out pretty good for a first try

anyways yesterday night hung out my my friend alisa who is also half japanese like me and she brought some of her japanese friends and zac was there too. 

before we met up with the others me and her met up earlier and ate some burger king and just caught up on life

anyways after everyone showed up we went to the arcade to play some darts but they wanted to take purikura and we cosplayed in santa suits

then they played darts. i played a little but im pretty bad

afterwards went karaoke. and they ordered fries and other junkfood too

it was really fun and we ended around 10:30 at night. the japanese girls went home but me alisa and zac went to this other arcade for ddr and ooofffff coouurrrsseee that one guy was there, drenched in sweat. but we just waited for him to finish then he left but he was really good playing challenge mode on both pads

anyways by the time everything was over its past 11 so time to go home

and that was my day~

new roommate

so on wednesday i got a new roommate. shes japanese n doesnt really speak english so im forced to talk in japanese which is good cuz i need to keep practicing. and shes 33 o__O but its ok cuuuuuzzzz SHE LIKES OTOME STUFF!!!!!

like she really loves uta no prince sama and thats i would say the most popular otome series in japan. and she likes hakuouki n all that too. im so glad cuz we talk about our fav characters n stuff lol. and then i guess the next day she slept over her friends house n when she came back she bought me a present from akihabara which was a kazama keychain!!! like she didnt need to. but aaawwww my other roommate would NEVER do something like that. i was hoping for someone who at least likes anime to be my roommate but she likes otome games too so bonus!!! she also has a ps4 but we have no tv so idk whats gonna happen with that and i dont even know what games are out for the ps4 anyway

and this week i started playing amnesia but ugh i got the bad end. its been years since ive seen the anime i thought i knew who the culprit was but got it wrong cuz the anime was really confusing switching back and forth different guys so whaaaa i didnt feel like trying again so starting a new guys route instead

nothing special

so on wednesday did that other job at this hospital for translations.

it was really easy. there are 2 ppl per room, a japanese and an english speaker. the japanese person plays the role of a doctor and im the patient. we both have to say things along the lines of a script we are given in our language in a translation app on a tablet to test how well the app works. so i saw something in english, it gets translated to japanese and i also have to see if the english translated meaning of the japanese translation matching my original english text. that make sense? well for the most part it was ok and im very impressed. too bad its just a prototype app cuz id download it right away. would make life so much easier. but you just have to talk really clear to get it to really understand. appearantly i was the best speaker(ahem) cuz i guess they were having trouble with the other english speakers cuz it seems they kinda had accents.

you read the same script 4 times with different ppl throughout the day and got $200 by the end. pretty good for a couple hours of really easy work! its actually the same company i did the other english recording with. i like them they do good pay.

but i gotta not spend so much until i get a job UGH. at this point i'll just do a hostess job i dont even care. they pay like $20 an hour the only thing is im trying to find a place thats open during the day cuz most of these open from around dinner time to midnight but i dont wanna work at night only. but i found one on a tissue that some guy handed me but you have to talk with ppl but idddkkkk i applied anyways lol

and also this week my new contacts arrived!!!

its dueba virgin blue from solution-lens.com

i was a bit worried ordering from the company cuz i never heard of them before until like 3 weeks ago cuz they dont seem really well known but all the research i did seems like they are legit and i havent seen anything that its a scam site plus all(well most) pairs are like $20 with free international shipping so what they hay. asked my mom to buy this as a christmas present

ok i dont really have a big eye pic but i'm just a tad disappointed. i still like them but its not exactly what i had hoped for.

1. i dont think its the brand dueba as thats nowhere on the vial. not that it really matters since plenty of circle lens have the same stuff but get called different brands

2. in the pics i thought itd be a nice light sky blue colour. theres this guy on instagram with light blue contacts i really want so i tried looking for the most similar to his and thought this would be nice. it looks light but when i put it on its just like an ocean-ish blue. its not dark or anything which is good cuz thats not what i want but eh

3. says its 14.5 mm but i HIGHLYYYY doubt it. the first thing i notice is how small they looked. i compared them next to my 14.2mm lens and those looked BIGGER than these! thats when i started worrying these might be fake but idk. i thought mmaybe these are just regular coloured contacts but when i put them on its a very slight enlargement.

if it were bigger i think they'd be nicer but i still like them they look natural and the colour shows up pretty good in normal lighting though i expected it to be lighter.

i thought theres a promotion if you review lens you can get a free pair but i cant seem to find it on the site anymore so thats why im saying whats on my mind n not buttering it  up lol

but yeah i'll def check the site again they have really good deals prob the best on the internet and big selections.

and im getting a new roommate on the 9th hope shes not too old :/

i just WISH she at least likes anime thats all
