My Poupee Girl

Do any of you play on poupeegirl?

Meet my poupee, CalaMari.
Don't you just love the tea party background?
Haha, so this was my first time making a gif. I've always wanted to try and here I see I've made a grainy one. Not very good quality at all, but oh well. I like it enough. I am proud. Tee Hee :]

If you've never heard of the Poupee Girl game, it is a Japanese website where you can dress up your own character. In case you're wondering poupee is French for doll, so you have a virtual doll to dress up. It's fun because you can go virtual shopping for your doll. You use "ribbons" as payment and the way you get it is by playing on the site and doing certain things: Logging in, uploading pictures of your own real items, commenting on other people's items, and more. Poupeegirl is also a great way to have a virtual record of your closet.
I think it's pretty awesome and it helps me when I'm trying to save money. I can see all the good stuff I have in my closet and I can go virtual shopping without actually losing money! I also try to dress my poupee in lolita clothes since I don't get to wear lolita as often and my loli closet just isn't as big as my poupee's! Tee hee!
If you play on poupeegirl, add me as a friend and we'll collect ribbons together!
If I convinced you to play too, let me know!

September Nails

Sorry for my super lateness on this post! It's almost the end of October and I am just now posting my September nails!

Week of September 5

Have any of you watched 2NE1's Music video I am the Best? These nails were inspired by Minzy's nails in the video. Her's are much darker and don't have writing etc. I actually added it in because it looked too white to me, just too bright. The red was to darken the solid whites again. And of course they're covered in glitter!!! I'm kinda sad the thumb got dinged, but oh well. I hope to truly have the correct nail art next time.

Week of September 12

My friend gave my a new polish after I told her about my hunt for an ivory colored nail polish. It turns out it was more clear and cool toned than it looked in the bottle. That whole clear problem happens to me all too many times. Kind of my fault for always wanting understated light colors. Anyways... I decided to add some stickers to the mix this time.

Week of September 19
School has been super busy and I just didn't have time to really work at a design, so I went with just a solid color. Not even an overcoat (hence the chipping). I choose brown because I thought it'd be nice for the upcoming fall weather. Although, in SF, September seems to be time for Summer weather... Haha, oh well.

Rest of August Nails

Week of August 22

I visited a friend who recently moved to San Francisco and I got to see her nail polish collection, which she let me try! I was so excited to see that she had glitter polishes! I decided to use red so that we would match! Since school was just starting, I didn't want to overload on the glitter, so I only put it on the ring finger. I've been really liking glitter, especially black glitter! 

(Yet again I cannot tell you the names of the polishes, but I'm pretty sure the brand for both was called Nabi)

 

Week of August 29

I call these my Incredible Hulk nails! I actually painted them for Harry Potter purposes. I knew I was going to dress up as a Slytherin Student for September first, so I wanted to do matching nails. I was actually going to do plain green, but it didn't feel like enough. I wanted to do something quick because school was so busy, so I decided to do crackle. It would have been much more Slytherin had my crackle polish been silver, but alas, I had none.

Can anybody guess why I dressed up on September 1st? :]

School has begun again

This year's school year has just begun at San Francisco State University. I haven't posted in a week and I'm so sorry for that! The beginning of the school year is always hectic isn't it? It's so busy.
Going to classes isn't the problem for now, especially since there isn't any real homework yet. It just gets so tiring to see so many people all of a sudden. Then there's the uncertainty of everything. New classrooms, new teachers, new classmates. The uncertainty of what the class and professor are like and whether I will know anybody in my classes.
Then there are the (what feels like a gazillion) organizations tabling and passing out flyers and making announcements. And to think, I'm part of a few of them. Ah, it gets fun though.
Seeing old friends I have been missing since the last semester is the best part of all. They make school fun even through all the hard work.

Sorry for my lack of a real post, I just wanted to let you know why I haven't posted in so long. I do hope that I will start posting regularly again soon, but until then I shall be settling into the school year.

Telegrams

I guess Cowboys and Aliens had some kind of promotion for free Telegrams and my boyfriend decided to send me one. It was really sweet and I liked the way he wrote it. It was as if he was from the old wild west.

I don't know much about the "Wild West" though and not much about telegrams either except that they say STOP instead of using periods. It was still pretty cute.

It came in a small manila envelope and the telegrams was just a regular, thin piece of paper, but it was printed to look like an old telegram. I'm not sure how they're really supposed to be, but I always expected telegrams to be on sturdy paper and to arrive without an envelope (and also be hand delivered, but you can't help that much these days).

*Australia Stamp! Look at that Koala!

Although the promotion is over, they seemed to have used a telegram company called Telegram Stop.
Check them out if you'd like.

I haven't watched Cowboys and Aliens. Have any of you? How was it?
I don't know if it's my kind of movie. I don't watch many Cowboy films.

Pottermore

YES! I JUST GOT MY WELCOME E-MAIL!

For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, check out http://insider.pottermore.com/.

If anyone's curious, I registered on Day 2.

I was so upset this morning when my boyfriend received his Welcome e-mail. We registered at the same time and he's the one who told me to check my e-mail. I wasn't so much upset because he had it and I didn't. I was mostly upset at the fact that we didn't get to explore it at the same time, together. I just really got my hopes up. I couldn't tell him wait until I got my Welcome e-mail. He's been waiting too and I would definitely say that he's the bigger Harry Potter Fan. Without a doubt. Plus, he's going on vacation soon and won't be able to explore while he's away. I'm not upset at all anymore! Tee Hee! XD

So I leave you with this:

My trusty Harry Potter 3D Glasses! I will never stop using these.

I watched the Glee 3D Movie today(15th) with these.
**HINT** Stay until the VERY END
