first couple days in JAPAN!

First of all, i left sunday early morning and arrived in japan monday morning(time change stuff) and was EXHAUSTED! the plane was 12 hours, but luckily it only felt like 6 or 7 hours cuz it was nighttime. sadly...didnt really sleep T_T

its just me n my mom and we're staying with my grandma there. the first day we just stayed at her house n relaxed cuz we're tired

 heres my "japanese style" nails ^_^

the second day me n my mom went out shopping. ok so like i guess now in japan lots of girls have dyed hair, cuz like half the girls i see are like me(but im better) as last time i went throughout the whole trip i prob saw less than 10 girls with dyed hair hmm

 heres ur typical japanese store that has multiple floors for different stuffs. bought lots of stuff!

oh and before i left my grandma saw a dead cicada out and took a pick. and theyre really big.like the size of ur thumb basically.

me n my mom shopped at a bookstore, clothes store, grocery store, and 100 yen store. and omgggg that 100 yen store had EVERYTHING i spent like an hour in there xD

afterwards got hungry so i ate some wakame(seaweed) udon which was yummy but i couldnt finish it

HERES STUFFS I BOUGHT FROM THE STORES

 fake eyelashes and nail polish from 100 yen store. and then i bought eyelid fiber cuz ive never tried it before. i'll use some tommorow or something

 and then one of those face mask things

 the 100 yen store had DECODEN STUFF OMG

 face thinner roller

 school neck bow for my cosplay lol

 tatoo tights. i wish the design was more up on my leg but watever. i like these

 popteen!

egg mag and it came with a freebie which is a mirror

eggs beauty fall/winter comes out later this month...sooooo getting that

heres ur typical train station

today me n my mom went to kyoto and is staying there for a few days. we went to the toei film studio today!!!

 @ some train station near the studio lol

the studio is pretty much an old town japan scenery so i took a pic in a soba stand

there was this show going on that we were watching and then the girl pulled me in cuz i was suppose to be this friend she was looking for and at first i was like ??? cuz she was staring at me then was like "aka chan???' and stuffs happened so shes asking me all these things in japan and i have no idea wat shes saying luckily my mom was translating so i was just going with the flow

after that scene this one guy asked where i was from cuz clearly they realized i dont speak japanese[well] and im like 'im from america' and everyones like oooohhhh

then they had some volunteers do some fighting battle thing and i decided to do that(cuz you know...it'd make a fun experience) and when it was my turn to fight after watching a demonstration instead of clashing swords or watever the guy makes a kissy face and i was like 'wait...what?' and idk. i dont feel like uploading the video but it was as a joke cuz these ppls are actors

heres a pic with them

the guy next to me made the kissy face lol

then we watched a ninja show!

i too a pic with the guy at the end with white hair, but it didnt have flash so it looks bad

then went to the anime museum!!! hey had lots of precure and one piece stuff

 a new movie is coming out soon ha ha

i THINK this is a gundam..like one of the really old ones...but i could be wrong...

afterwards we went in a japanese haunted house and ommgggggg i REGRET going in there. its full of fake dead bodies in dark candle light rooms and you never know what really ppl are there going to scare u and at one point we ht this dead end and there was a hidden door and we had to find it but we didnt wanna walk around cuz it was dark n scary and then i was like 'push over at that wall' cuz it looked like a door but my moms all like 'noooo scaryyy' ad stuff but she finally did. i wanted to leave so bad. i didnt even see half the stuff cuz i was hiding my face in my moms back but we had to keep moving forward cuz there was only one exit. yeah....never again.

visual kei?

a few days ago me n isabel tried doing visual kei makeup

heres the result

i had falsies on but her glue didnt work good so they fell off so didnt take a pick with them on T_T

idk if u can call the make visual kei, still has that gyaru look to it but i cant help it xD

past few days

on wedneday i went to san diego again and i brought danielle along

we went to japan town and @ book off i saw they had a popteen comic so i decided to buy it since its only $1. but arruugh i want the last volume cuz i gotta know what happens @_@

i got volume 3. im assuming theres 4 but idk

 its gonna take a while for me to read this. its completely in japanese and i plan on reading the whoe thing even though i dont knw lots of kanjis or what they are really saying but i feel it'l help me learn more

we went to other stores too. i didnt really buy anything cuz im going to japan in less than a month ahhh!!!!!

but dani bought lots XD

i asked my mom to buy me a soda drink and we ate at yoshinoya again

 the main reason i wanted to go to san diego was to watch madagascar 3 in 3D cuz i just loved that movie and it would be PERFECT for 3D....and it was *cries*

then on thursday i hung out with hasna and we just drove mindlessly again. she followed a random road to see where it would take us. then we went to these mountains cuz i guess rich ppl live there and we got to see all these rich houses and hooooolly crap i wish i brought my camera T_T

we kept following some random road and was like in some enchanted forest looking place and idk it reminded me of being in snow white or something. but we ended up going in san diego just by going over the mountain. oh yeah also on the mountain i guess there was one of those lookout points like in movies were couples would go to makeout  or w/e and idk it felt awkward cuz there was ppl there o.O

then i got car sick or something cuz i got a bad headache and went home to rest then went to her house to sleepover. and she gave me an mp3 player that looks like an ipod for my graduation present even though its like 2 months later but still, im gonna be using this in japan

we watched captain america and admired his hotness then went on omegle and fell asleep at like 3:30 am and got up at 12

in the morning i watched her play donkey kong country and its funny cuz shes talks to herself when she plays XD then i went back home to get ready to go to the all with my other friend

so i went to the mall with paul and he let me borrow 999 again and the world ends with you, im also playing those on the trip to japan, then we talked about random stuff

he kept bugging me about buying me something but i felt bad if he bought this $22 cardigan i wanted so i had him buy me chocolate milk straws cuz i thought they were cool. i have yet to try these

yuup dats all bye

birthday party

last night i went to julians birthday party! it was lots of fun

he got a 3DS with the new kingdom hearts....omg i was sooooooo jelly. but i got to sorta play it even though i had no idea wat i was suppose to be doing. T_T me want. he also got a car wtf

there was pinatas and when it was my turn to whack it ugg. i think i did ok. i wished i had my friend video tape it. since i was blindfolded all i could hear was ppl shouting and i got all confused n stuff. i only got a little candy lol

then we played musical chairs. right before it started, i told my friends 'i bet im gona be the first one out' and of course...i was.

then everyone dancing and im like 'haha yeah no' but i felt awkward standing while everyone else was dancing so i just like moved my body a bit lol. yeah i dont dance

and ate some yummy cake outside while talking cuz it was hot inside

the only pcs i took were me and my friends jasmine and julie but they came out gross so im not uploading any

then i left at like 11:30 at night and then until like 1:30 i was on the couch watching a korean drama xD

gangurooooo

 yeah so heres my attempt with ganguro makeup!!!!

@_@

ive been wanting to try out this look for a while now. but i dont really have bronzers...so when isabel came over i used her brown eyeshadows O.O but hey, mixed with the stuff i used it didnt turn out half bad.

i ordered a curler n ebay and it arrived yestersay

 ive seen lots of models use triple barrel curlers so i wanted one, but the one i got the irons were a lot smaller than i wanted. but watever i only paid $10 and it does the job so watever

rather have beachy waves though T_T

omg i felt like i had SO much makeup on. when i finally washed all of it, i felt nice n clean ^_^

 heres a close up on my eye make

i drew on bottom lashes cuz i was too lazy to put real ones on

gah i think i looked like a real ganguro teehee

next time we're doing visual kei makeup!!!

~i'm so hot i'm on fire~
