Jihaku

No. 054
.collection(s):: GACKT
.obtained:: 2004/2005
.status:: In Use
.explain:: I bought Gackt's autobiography long ago when my obsession was in full swing haha When I first got it, I took it everywhere with me. I still have yet to read the book (I read the translation first before getting the book itself) but perhaps I can try sometime soon since my Japanese has gotten much better. I almost got this signed by the man himself at the Bunraku premiere in Toronto but unfortunately he finished signing right as he was getting to me. It's one of my dreams to get it signed haha

Sorry I've been so inactive and I only have one other picture for now. I'm pretty busy at the moment so I probably won't be able to take more for a while.

Gloomy DSi

No. 053
.collection(s):: green, gloomy bear, animals, stickers, arashi
.obtained:: December 2010(?) @ Zellers
.status:: In Use
.explain:: My little siblings have broken both of my previous DSs so I let them have it and for a while I didn't have my own. When I found out that these limited edition DSi packages (with Mario games) ere being sold, I had to get one. I went to walmart thinking they would have it since I saw the orange one there but the lady was so rude to me when I asked if they had the green one. She looked at me and responded as if I was stupid. Well, I ended up finding it at Zellers and the lady there was very nice indeed. Stupid walmart people.
My boyfriend gave me the Gloomy sticker and now we both have Gloomy on our DSs. I also have Aiba and Sho stickers on the inside beside the screen.

.explain:: He's cute isn't he? I got this in Chinatown a while ago. The pages are a dotted grid. It's pretty nice but kind of difficult to write in lol I started using this to write profiles of my OCs and ideas for Shin Cafe but I haven't gotten anywhere with that haha

asphalt

No. 050
.collection(s):: eyeshadow
.obtained:: @ Pharma Plus
.status:: In Use
.explain:: This is the colour I usually use for my work makeup and when I feel like wearing toned down make-up. It's a nice light coppery colour that just adds some depth to my eyes. It complements my skin tone quite nicely, I think.

Laziness strikes again haha.

gentle blossom + loyal lavender

No. 049
.collection(s):: nailpolish, green, purple
.obtained:: June 2011 @ Walmart
.status:: In Use
.explain:: This summer I really wanted to get some pastel coloured nail polish; all my other nail polish are quite vibrant. So, I bought these two colours here. The contrast is probably too strong here but they are very pretty pastel colours. The green is like a mint/honey dew colour and the purple is a light lavender. Here's how they look on (the colours may be a little washed out but this is pretty accurate).

butterfly fan

No. 048
.collection(s):: purple
.obtained:: August 2011
.status:: In Use
.explain:: My boyfriend sent this to me from Japan. It's from the 100 yen shop (dollar store equivalent) but the quality is really good! I'll definitely need to visit the 100 yen shop when I go to Japan. My little sister bought a similar fan from Chinatown for $2 but the quality was pretty poor. I really love the design on it and, of course, it's my favorite colour!
