Japan, land of the ultra stylish.

On a recent facebook conversation with my friend, she introduced to me this website FILMDANCER.COM.

Although small, there is a collection of street snaps from Japan (mainly Tokyo) that they seem to update from time to time.

She's adorable.

Check out the website for more !

Japan Day and Applications Galore!

Hey everyone. How is your Wednesday? Mine is pretty relaxed. I'm meeting a friend later, but for now, I'm just kicking it back.

So lately I've been on a job hunting frenzy, trying to find jobs in every place I may want to work. I know it's such a spoiled thing to say to do what you love in this economy, but I strongly believe that at least finding a job that involves things you like (for me, it would be clothes/food) would really help secure a job. It would also make the road ahead a lot less bumpy. Besides, I think managers can tell when you're not telling the truth anyway.

So Japan Day was last Sunday, and I haven't posted pictures yet, so thought you may want to see!

My eye make-up and wig. Since it was Japan Day and all, I thought I would kinda amp up the pop culture-ness of my outfit. That, and the super Asian pose does half the work for me.

I got to Central Park around . . . 2? IT WAS PACKED. Look at all those people! And the lines for everything was insane. I couldn't even get tea. [tear tear]

A pic with my friend Melissa. Note: I am actually tanner than you may think I am.

I haven't looked so Japanese in a long time . . . Oh, and face censor because I had a strange expression (looked painful . . .)

Outfit Lowdown:
- Aristocats Marie Cap from Tokyo Disneyland (or Sea? I can't remember!)
- Long Wig
- Homemade Bow
- Polka-dot t-shirt/dress from H&M
- Belt from 6% Dokidoki
- Pink tutu from Japan
- Lace Tights from F21
- Boots from Double Decker (these officially broke but I still want to repair them again!)
- Tote from Muji (and I painted on it)

The Taiko drumming booth, and some of the performances I saw. I'm amazed zoom came out really well (oh camera, I love thee). But furthermore, I'm amazed at myself for realizing just now the guy in the last pic holding the curtains.

So after watching some of the performances and playing phone tag with my friend Jenna (and FINALLY FINDING HER THROUGH MEANS OF A POLICE VAN), Melissa, Jenna, her boyfriend, and I all headed to midtown for a little snackage.

Vanilla Bean Frappe with WHIPPED CREAM YAY (yes, I am a little kid) and Melissa's Coffee Frappe (?) with a Chicken Sandwich from Zaiya Cafe.

After snacking, Jenna and her boyfriend left, and I broke my boots. So I bought replacement shoes at H&M (you will see them soon). Then Melissa and I got hungry, so we decided on a little field trip to Serendipity!

Inside decor pics and a menu picture. Man, I missed this place!

We started with a mint frozen hot chocolate!

Looks killer, don't it?

Then we moved onto entrees. I got a Bleu Burger, and Melissa grabbed a BLT.

Sorry to the bunch of people who are vegan/vegetarian out there!


We basically then walked to the train to go home. T'was a fun fun day! I hope to do something like it soon.
Also, I'll be introducing something cool that happened to me yesterday in another post. So wait for it~
Tata!

My camera has died and gone to Olympus . . .

Haha, get it? Because my camera is an Olympus, but Olympus is also the home of the Gods in Greek mythology?

. . .

Okay, shut up, I'm not a loser.

Anyway, I am currently watching youtube this morning. Or to be more specific, this:

Oh Tyra . . . (P.S. Apparently after doing just one impression of Tyra, I am now the go to person for Tyra impressions. And Kanye. And Spongebob laughter)


Lately, I've been running out of my lotion that I've been using forever.

I got it as a gift years ago but because I have a collection of many lotions and I use them in small amounts, I haven't really run out yet. Well, until now. I like this because peppermint is soothing on the skin, and I think it smells nice. In terms of moisturizing though, I prefer L'Occitane. Their travel size lotions are perfect and not costly. But yeah, back to this, I need to find a replacement (I think they only sell this one during the Christmas season).

Oh, I also have an old coordinate that I never posted up. It's about 2 weeks old?

I look chipper, don't I?

-fake glasses from Japan
-random scarf from Japan
-Vamps concert tee (yeah!!!)
-random overalls
-plaid tights from F21
-XOXO boots
-Grey cardigan from H&M
-Viv bag

And if this post could not be any more random, a painting I never finished contained this bunchles of bananas:

I miss painting. This week, I WILL PAINT.

As a final note, my mom is going back to Japan for a week and a half, and ahhhhhhhh, I'M JEALOUS. I miss Japan so (although right now I'd kill to go to London or India). Well, travel in general. But such a pricey hobby that is . . .

I think I will request some cute decoration sweets for my phone!

And of course other random cute things that one does not really need, but actually they do.

I'm off to go to school again (do I ever not? Even on weekends I know . . . ) so I shall see everyone later!
