Extra Life + Bob Ross

This past weekend was Extra Life, the annual video game marathon I have been participating in for the past three years to help raise money for Miami Children's Hospital. This year has been amazing though, I made well over my goal amount of money, $182! I couldn't have done it without all of the lovely support from those who donated.


I wasn't able to make my giveaway goal amount though, which was $200, so sadly I won't be hosting the giveaway, but I would love to send small thank you notes to those who have donated to me, so if you are interested and have donated to the cause, let me know on my Facebook or Tumblr and I can send you a little care package in thanks. =) You're welcome to leave a comment here as well and I will leave it screened if it has your personal information.

I ended up helping my friend do his speed run of Tales of Symphonia 2, and then afterwards we played Trauma Team and seriously got waaay too into it. We ended up sounding like actual surgeons screaming; "scalpel!" "suture!" at each other, haha~ I can't wait until next year's already! Hopefully I'll be able to continue to beat my fundraising record.

Today is also Bob Ross' birthday, he's been a great inspiration to me since I was a child. I ended up looking up a bunch of my favourite quotes from him, and titled the look I posted today after one of them.


Here are some of my favourite quotes from him:
  • "People might look at you a bit funny, but it's okay. Artists are allowed to be a bit different."
  • "The secret to doing anything is believing that you can do it. Anything that you believe you can do strong enough, you can do. Anything. As long as you believe."
  • "There's nothing wrong with having a tree as a friend."
  • "We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents."

Pumpkin Patch Meet + Tate's Comics

I met up with the local lolitas yet again for a fun meet-up for Halloween!


Again, I marked this as "travel" because it was the first time I went to a farmer's market like this that had a corn maze and tractor rides! I felt like I did everything that you're supposed to do on Halloween for once! =D I really want to frequent places like this in the future. I just wish it wasn't so hot. ;___;

I was going to go up the rock climbing wall they have there, but I ended up getting light-headed from standing out in the sun for nearly 20 minutes, so I needed to sit down and take a break, which really sucked. ;A; I wish the weather here would let up.



I ended up wearing an outfit pretty much inspired by; "the clashing colours of Halloween~" I wore orange, purple, and black with a tinge of pink. I really love the cute little pumpkin bonnet I purchased from Cute & Candy Clouds, it kept the sun out of my eyes too! To top it all off, I wore Sweetie Cake's newest creation, her Boo Bear cutsew~

Taobao Shopping + Pruany Review (JUNE 2015 UPDATE!!)

EDIT: (June 21, 2015) I have now felt the need to update this review since I've realised this is one of the first reviews that turns up in a Google search about this SS. I no longer feel comfortable recommending this service to anyone, please check the end of the original post for more details as to why.
This is just part of my stash from a sizable Taobao group order I led this past month. I'm hoping to do them more often, it's so great!

New Modeling Gig! + Lime Crime Review

Hello everyone! I am super ecstatic and just generally so excited to share that I will be modeling for one of my favourite Etsy stores; Starlight Deco Dream! I am really thrilled for this opportunity and I'm always happy to support one of the first stores that really turned me into a frequent shopper at Etsy. Not to mention I looove her wigs.



Like her on Facebook!

So far we have a couple of photoshoots planned for her wigs and merchandise. I can't wait to come up with more coordinate inspired by magical girls for her shoots! =D

I put together a really fun coordinate inspired by Akemi Homura from Puella Magi Madoka Magica. There may be some spoilers in the latter part of the description, so be careful if you haven't watched the anime yet and plan on it. ;D

HUGE POST! PLNDR + Lens Village + Katy Perry Lash Review

This is a pretty insane post, I hope you all stick it out until the end! Beware: this is THREE huge reviews all rolled up into one post to make up for the lack of updates on my end. I finally finished taking the LSAT, so now I have a lot more time on my hands~




(I'm pretty much wearing everything I plan on reviewing in this outfit! Haha~)


In fact, one of them is a very disgruntled negative review, which I'll do first since I think negative reviews are more important for people who are looking for feedback, and also, to end this entry on a more positive note.
