Aliens

So what's the deal Katy? All I can say is: I love this video.

This was beautifully done. I haven't seen a MV like this in a long time. It matched the music perfectly. This is one of those MV's where I'm like, okay this needs to be a movie. I would watch it.

But most of all I was orgasm'ing all over the makeup. That is my dream someday. Celebrity Stylist, yes PLEASE.

But seriously, is this what Katy Perry thinks aliens are like? I'm down. I dig it. I just wish they'd show up BEFORE the apocalypse. Which brings up a good point: do I believe in aliens? Yes. Yes I do. Little green spacemen? Aw hell nah. But come on. We cannot be the ONLY life in the universe. That just seems illogical and egotistical. Whether you believe in creationism or evolution, it doesn't matter, both theories have room for other life forms.

Who's to say that a big bang couldn't of happened somewhere else, you know? Or that some god decided to try again in another solar system. I just wish I knew the truth. That's what bothers me the most. That in my lifetime, I'll never know. There are so many things that I'd love to see come to fruition but I know I won't.

Things I'd like to see:

• Aliens
• Robots that actually do stuff, like in Futurama
• Time travel
• Hover cars
• Laser guns
• Cheap plastic surgery
• Free university in the US
• Holographic TVs
• My great great great grandchildren. Like, visiting them as a ghost. Wooo!
• Corrective surgery to everyone that has to wear glasses, and it's FREE
• Women's rights

But like I said, most of that stuff if not all I won't see in my lifetime. Which is sad, but true. But thanks Katy Perry for being an inspiring force in my studies! One day I WILL be a celebrity stylist, and do crazy alien makeup for videos on youtube. I can hear the idiotic comments now...

A New Day Has Come

I've come to some realizations lately, and they go a little like dis:

1. So this isn't really a gal blog. This is a whatever blog. It started as a gyaru blog, but there are already too many out there and I feel like I just can't compete with the majesty and grandeur of the competition.

I don't know what the theme is yet but I know for sure it's not going to be read by anyone. Such is life.

2. I've become more relaxed in my gyaru style. I KNOW. I just said it wasn't going to be a gyaru blog. But look, I like it. And this is my blog. About my life. So BLEH.

What I mean is that I'm not so freakin' uptight. I used to have to have everything try to be perfect, I would stress the entire time I dressed up. Worrying about what other gals thought about my style, worrying about what my friends thought, worrying about total strangers judging me. But this realization has come to me: I look good. It doesn't matter what others think. I can dress up however I want, if I think it looks good I know that I already have the confidence to be beautiful. They can judge, they can stare.

But my primary concern was comfort. Sometimes the outfits I wore were so uncomfortable I couldn't have fun or feel pretty. Now it's come to me that denim cut offs and a cute graphic tee with the right accessories and hair can be just as cute and gal as a a real swanky outfit. Or at least look as fabulous to people that have no clue what gal is.

3. This one really relates to the last post in that it has everything to do with appearance. It's something I think a lot of people struggle with, but don't really talk about. I mean like the real awful issues people don't talk about. Not the 'oh I feel so fat today haha' but the part of us that looks in the mirror and thinks the most horrible things, that comes up with the most gruesome and rigorous ideas to get skinny/pretty. That part that tells you to starve yourself because you deserve it.

I've pretty much beat the shit out of that part of me. It can go fuck itself for all I care. I look good dammit. I don't care how skinny YOU think I should be. I don't care if you think my eyebrows are too thick, I have too much blush, my skirt is too short, my chins too numerous. I know people like me, why can't you like me? I mean for chrissake, you ARE me and you don't like me.

So shut up while I work this hot stuff. Go back to high school where you belong.

The cleansing continues:

Pursuit of Happiness

So I know it's been awhile since my last update. I have things that need to be taken care of in my life, and have been trying my damnedest. I have to get everything back on track. I'm turning into a giant hedonistic lush with no plans or ambitions.

Kid Cudi kind of sums it up, you know? It's a song that really hit me.



I really like the other version as well.



I always said I would stop BEFORE it became a real problem. So I'm stopping it right here.

ANYWAY. I'm planning on getting a camera very soon, so I can actually start blogging. I'll do an Anime Detour update soon. But right now it's too nice to stay inside.

Joan & Melissa

My new favorite show. It is my humor to a T.





Joan please by my grandmother. PLEEEEAAASSSEE.

Non-gyaru Idols

Just some lovely ladies that have inspired me throughout the years, in no particular order.

Jennifer Lopez

Mariah Carey

Britney Spears

Madonna!

Jackie Kennedy

Katey Segal as Peg Bundy

Jayne Mansfield

Mae West

Joan Rivers

RuPaul

Fran Drescher as Fran Fine

Julie London

Expensive Tastes

So the worst part about having a Betsey Johnson store nearby is that I go in there and heave a tremendous sigh at all the gorgeous things I want. I think about my unemployement, and what I REALLY need to be spendin my money on. Then I cry and leave. :D

But for real, I am in love with this stuff. I am lusting after a few goodies at the moment, and by a few I mean a lot.

EVENING VON TRAPP STRAPLESS DRESS $398

Yes, I want to look like a foofy cake. A big ol' princess cake.

BAG O BONES INTARSIA TUNIC $278

Seriously, this is so cute.

CHEETAH BETSEY BABE KNIT TUNIC $298

Animal print? Uh yes please.

ANTIQUE SKULLS STRETCH DENIM DRESS $298

PATTERN CLOSE UP

This one was def love it first sight. They didn't have my size, otherwise I would've tried it on and taken pics.

SAILOR TWILL MILITARY JACKET $278

Military style tends to look great on me, so I'm a little biased towards this more than anything else. Plus it has a lot of buttons. I like that.

NEWSPAPER PT COTTON JERSEY BUSTLE JACKET BLACK $210

BUSTLE VIEW

This one really got my imagination going. I'm awful at coords so it's amazing when things actually inspire me enough to put together a good coord.

SKULL GARDEN WEEKENDER $138

Me and Justin adored this one, his complaint was that it was cute but he wanted one guys could wear. Whatever, you can rock it dude.

So this actually inspires me to work harder at my money making. After all, if you're not going to spend your money on designer brands what are you gonna spend it on? Food? Please, if I did that I wouldn't be able to fit into these sassy threads.

ALBA ROSA Sale

So I'm selling my two Alba Rosa Blanket Square coats.

200 USD, only been worn once. Very cute color. It has the hook closure instead of the buttons.

180 USD, used but still in good condition. Hook closures instead of buttons.

Leave a comment if interested or if you have any questions. Paypal only, will ship worldwide. S&H will be calculated into the total.

GETS and meetup

So Thursday I met up with Sara Mari and Justin. It was super fun, I styled their hair. Unfortunately I had like no time for my own hair before we went to the mall, so it looked like regurgitated noodles or something very similar to it. Luckily my room was pretty clean, and I had a cute outfit, and got discounted bubble tea.

We took some pics of my gets with Sara's bitchin' camera. Here they are:

Super cute tiered black skirt from Wet Seal. It was kind of expensive, but I couldn't wait for clearance.

Another tiered skirt, but with an adorable polka dot and lace pattern from Wet Seal.

I couldn't pass up this sweet animal print jumper. I felt really awkward buying it from the saleswoman because she was ridiculously dressed up and I was in my sweatpants. She's like, "Oh how cute!" And I respond, "Yeah I just absolutely love animal print, just can't get enough." To which she looks me up and down and grimaces. I felt very judged in a weird way.

Leopard print harem pants. I threw out all my old sweat pants/ workout gear so now I need new stuff. And this time it's gonna be HOT.

Heart top from Forever 21. I thought about wearing it on valentines day, but then thought it was way too cheesy.

Leopard print union jack crop top. It fit like a glove and was so cute. It looked awesome, I just need to find the right accessories. F21.

Mickey print top, and it is really comfortable. I wear it all the time now. F21.

Nautical theme sailboat purse. I'm trying to use smaller purses, and liked this one a lot. F21.

Kitten heeled pink/B&W leopard print pumps. I love the little bows! F21.

Open toed leopard stilettos. So cute! F21.

Rocker style boots. Justin was so jealous we immediately went and got him the same shoes at F21.

So a TON of animal print. It's pretty much always in, so I felt good about my purchases. I just need some more airy/flowly/springy stuff. All my clothes are really heavy looking, and material wise as well. So as soon as I have more disposable income, I'm going shopping again.

Celebrity Look-A-Likes

I've noticed something recently. Sometimes gyaru models look like famous US celebs. Case in point, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen:

And then...

Weird, isn't it? I'll have to search for more. I know one time I saw a model that looked like my friend Heather. But this is just spooky. There's another one in an issue of Ranzuki I have, but I'll have to find it later.

So yeah, something else on my mind

Koda Kumi is my gal idol. I know she ain't 'really' gyaru. But COME ON.

Lick my lollipop. Damn gurl, you and your nails. Please, let's get gay married.
