YJ! and Par-Tay!

Hey! Yes I'm talking to you! Your just in time for my new blog post ^^. Today's post will be about YJ! and my favorite shopping service, you also will get to hear about my upcoming party plans for my birthday, updates, and all about the new anime I've been hoarding ^^. Oh and note this blog post is going to have only the non Cardcaptor Sakura anime I've been hoarding cause that will have it's own post later on. SO! Let's get started shall we? 

I was getting tired of the same old Mariko images so I spiced mine up a bit ^^. My recent purchase on YJ! with the help of the wonderful staff at ShoppingMallJapan, was the fabulous Mariko Sensei ^^, which you will hear more of when she arrives home from Japan. Mainly though I'm here to tell you how wonderful ShoppingMallJapan is as a proxy. Even when you first sign up, if you use paypal SMJ is your best friend! Whatever you deposit for your money to bid, SMJ will let you bid 5 times that amount! They have excellent customer service and respond pretty fast from what I've seen. There process is pretty painless. After an item is won they pay the seller for you and once your item is shipped off to them they give you one main price to pay including fees and what not. Then, after your Item arrives in there USA storage, you write out a shipping form from a link on the website and they ship the item to you! A little after the item is shipped you will get one more payment request for the shipping of your item. So yeah thats pretty much it! I have worried plenty of times to get an item and SMJ has always come through for me, whether its getting me more deposit money before an auction ends, or helping me get an item I want from a Japanese website, SMJ is top notch please go here if you would like to take in the spoils from them as well!

For my 23rd Bday Get together, I got these awesome Cardcaptor Sakura limited napkins ^O^. I will be giving one to each of my guests to take home or use as well....a napkin! XP















So finally the moment you all been waiting for! Hold on to your drumsticks! Here is my anime haul recently! *A couple are bday gifts for me but a lot I bought with extra money or from Florida Anime Con* Oh and see you next time! THE END
 

Gomen Nasai X.x

Guess it seems weird id be randomly apologizing XD but I haven't blogged in a while due to depression, things going on, vacation, bla bla bla. I'm sure you'd love to sit here all day and see what kind of amazing excuses I can rant on about, but unfortunately I'm going to get to the point XD. 
 

That point being, my vacation and anime con! I just recently returned home from Florida and the Florida Anime Experience! I went to Florida for 5 days down to Orlando, and we were at the convention Friday evening and Saturday during the day. Let me tell you folks, despite the convention being new and small it is definitely worth going. Not only did they have amazing pickings at the dealers room, (I was able to get 3 dvd sets for 80 bucks!) they also had fun panels like the travel to Japan one I attended, things like awesome dancing panels and even amazing guests like the voice actress Terri Hawkes!(She played Sailor Moon for part of the english version) Not to forget the other cool things like a tea room which I unfortunately didn't get to fit in to my schedule, and a visit to the video game room which had a lot of Japanese video game titles like Sailor Moon Super S! So its easy to say I had a fantastic time, the people were fantastic and I'd love to go back!
 

If you haven't figured it out by now, I am the one cosplaying CCS ^^ Other parts of my vacation include going to the Aquatica waterpark, the Titanic Experience, and various other places. We stayed at the Hawthorn Suites and I would definitly reccomend it. They have free breakfast every morning hot and cold, the rooms are nice, and the staff are very friendly, for more info click on this link over here>>> Hawthorn Suites <<< Well thats all the time and info I have for you right now! Please come back I will be adding my birthday updates and some information on my CCS Project! C'est la vie *se la vi*
 

~Swingin on by~

Sorry for the goofy title but I just watched George of the Jungle 2 yesterday! Yes it exists, and no its not as good as the first, but worth a look into anyway for some laughs. Today's post however will be mainly about updates, excitement, and Mothers Day!

If you can't guess from the sparkley gif above, were starting with Mothers Day! Are you looking for the perfect gift but don't have a million dollars to spend? Well I found my solution! Ulta, that would beUlta.com has a fantastic special going on right now! You buy a fragrance for 30 dollars or more and get a free tote bag of your choice with purchase! Not only that you even get 3 free samples with your order! If your order reaches up to 51 dollars or more you get free shipping. Ulta is def my hero this mothers day. However, if your really strapped for cash Id recommend just making something yourself, or taking mum out to a place for lunch, mom's love it when they don't have to cook ^^.

Now onto excitement! If you didn't guess yet were going backwards in the way I listed things ^^. I'm very excited because my birthday is coming up at the end of June! I have tons of rare Cardcaptor Sakura items coming that I bought some of and my mum bought some of, and since Im a huge Cardcaptor Sakura fan I am just bowled over in happiness XD. I hope to do a Sakura/Cherry Blossom theme party as well. Not all items were exactly easy or fun to acquire, but I didn't find all of them alone just most. My good amazing friend known as coley to me or to you the owner of ersa flora eyes, helped me search tediously for some of the rarer items, i'm greatly in debt to her with gratitude.I am so used to searching for the main character in her Japanese form カードキャプターさくら now, because I was doing it everyday several times a day XD. I can relax now that I only have one item left to get, but for any of you who don't know about this anime check it out here *Wikipedia* and warning the dub is completely different then the Japanese version.

Finally to updates! First off you will notice the picture of the clow cards right above this, well......you guessed it! They are indeed for sale! I am taking offers on them preferably in cash. These are the original legit clow cards from trendmaster, the american version.
Also on updates I have indeed started to do profiles of my dolls! You can see them listed in the My Dolls section, I hope to get up more soon. Well thats it for today! I hope you enjoyed reading and see you all next time ^^ *this is not a tv show I assure you, even if kero thinks it is ><*

Cons and more Cons @_@

I am here! Back from Tekkoshocon X! Writing a little late but I was pretty exhausted, I attended the con on friday, saturday, and sunday! So first off I want to share my loot/booty! ^lolz from the con.

(2 anime plushies, a super cool dvd fullset, a bag of trading figures from pangya golf, and a Mikuru Asahina pvc figure!)

Besides the awesome dealers room, I have a lovely set of photos to share with you all, including one of me and my friend Jen (me as Miku Hatsune *the world is mine* and jen as Teto! Also you can see a little of the dealers room XP it wasn't huge but it was decent.


Click me for the pics!

 While at the con, I did some fun things you didn't get to see too. Such as visit with my friend Deanna and play rock band on the video game floor.  I got to talk to some staff members who were very nice, watched some moon phase, power rangers, fooly cooly, (prob other things I dont remember as much) and dragon boy which was just plain odd, trust me.  There was an anime trivia game show, and I listened to the band known as Sound Witch.  All in all it was a great experience although they only had some kinda karaoke thing on thursday ><.


Before I head out I wanted to mention I will be attending another con soon! Please click on the banner incase you might want to attend also! Piecez out *

Great b@lls of Random

Time again for another segment of updates and blabber. In this edition *yes like a magazine* I am going to go over some things I found out as well as show you my recent shopping steals, *aka items I got for a great price*, and also let you know whats going on with my dolls/life/ dolls life.

 I've found that if you want to add some gems or some tiny tattoos to your dolls without having to paint them on or worry about them looking fake/unnatural, 3d nail art stickers are the way to go.  Make sure you buy the ones that are just the design though and not the decals for your nail layout ones.  This is why its important to make sure you search the word 3D if buying online, I get mine off of ebay and there very inexpensive.  You also can find these in stores where beauty products are sold ^^.

This past weekend I was able to do a little splurging on myself yes myself! for once.  I bought these lovely dollhouse high heeled shoes, they have a lacing on them and bows and look very lolita esk to me, only 30 dollars! Now i'm sure my feet won't be so happy but at least they will look good. Aherm anyway, I also found this awesome cute bag/purse that matches them for a great price at 14 dollars!


And so onto my dolls, my shiny petsha head is finally finished and shipping back to me shortly. The person doing her faceup didn't take long at all but the person before her, lets just say months and months and NO FACEUP.  My doll I finished the layaway for from Angell Studio is proceeding to get her faceup and will ship out later in march, SO EXCITED.

 So now your know and before I sign off, wanted to update you I will be cosplaying soon at Tekkoshocon in March!  I ordered a Miku Hatsune The World is Mine costume! I am collecting all the pieces for the outfit accessories and have most of them, I just hope my costume gets done and gets here fast ><. Until next time O_-

Order up!~

I'm back ^^, I returned home on Thursday evening, but was pretty exhausted and went to bed.  It's Saturday now, and a perfect time to be blogging.  It's snowing outside and what do you know: my leekeworld order came in!

To clarify I ordered: New brushes, 2 pairs of glass eyes, and a new wig. The card thingy is pretty cool but it says Leekeworld lottery number @_@. I'm going to be investigating what is going on ^^.

From a while ago I need to report on my wonderful camera, the Fujifilm F600 EXR. I have to say I absolutely love this camera! With it's many different modes, such as pet modes and modes with face tracking, plus all its other features like: 15 times zoom, built in photo albums, seperate modes for cat and dog photos, pop up flash, and image stabilization. This camera is well worth the money. Cameraland on ebay is also a great place to buy a camera from, I was able to get a 3 year warranty for a mere 30 dollars. My camera also came with cool extras like a cleaning kit, camera holding case, and more.


Okay so winding up this blog post, My AS girl qinglin is finally paid off and im waiting for her to ship! My new couch is here, and my other dollmore order has already shipped as well. Im waiting on my yingying's wig and some treats for my dolls ^^.


Also a nice lady named Elisabeth preferred to be called Iza has shown me this lovely book that she has made. I found it interesting and wanted to plug it here on my blog.
