Fantaisies dans le Monde des Rêves at 2:44 PM



Hey guys!
Just got back from the epic journey to Fantaisies dans le Monde des Rêves this morning.
Oh my goodness, what an adventure! I went with a few friends and we ended up getting STUCK in San Fran! Our rides car broke down, and drama drama.

I'll upload some photos from the event later tonight (I already uploaded a ton to my facebook)
But I just wanted to explain and complain a little bit.

So we got there on Friday and poked around the Magical Boutique a bit.
Ran into some people I knew, and made new friends~ The Magical Boutique was great! albeit a tad bit lacking. Everything was super expensive, as expected.*

*(Seriously, $25 for a tiny plastic ring?!
Sorry Angelic Pretty, I love you as much as the next sweet lolita, but that's a bit much for a piece of plastic with your logo on it....)


I fell in love with Wonder Cookie, which surprised me a bit because I'm not normally too into the super busy prints that AP has. Needless to say, I am now absolutely broke...


The event was great though there were some minor issues. The fashion show was a blast, and Kokusyoku Sumire's performance went perfectly. The snacks were delicious, and the little gift bags were a cute and thoughtful touch!

But, as I said before there were quite a few setbacks to the event.


This was really my first real step into the egl community, and I have to say I didn't feel entirely welcome.

Especially not after all the bashing of the girl who won the contest!

I just want to throw it out there that the girl who won Miss EGL 2010 deserved to win. She was cute, and talented and out of the three contestants I'd say she did the best in the performing section hands down.

It was a talent show not a beauty pageant, right? I mean, I was under the impression it was a talent show. So what's with all the hate?!

Anyways asides from the contest, the tea party was pretty fun!
There were definitely a few things that could have gone smoother.

For one, we could have gotten into the room in time instead of and hour and a half later.
It was all because the keyboard that Kokusyoku Sumire were given wasn't the "right one" or something.

Kokusyoku Sumire was great though they performed waaaaay too long anyways.
None of us had eaten lunch because we assumed they would give us food... and they kind of did. After what seemed like an hour long performance and half hour intermission.

Also the tea was served in coffee mugs.
Which isn't really that big of a deal, but I mean it's a tea party right?

Since the performances went so long we didn't have much time to play any games. The only "game" was a kind of lottery, where we each got a little prize ball and if you got a paper that said a color then you win that color prize.

Lucky me! I got the "gold prize" which was supposedly the "highest prize"
Yeah, I got a tote bag that I will never ever use.
At least I can sell it though!

But all in all the event was worth it.
If not for the actual main event itself then instead for the friends and memories gained from going!

I'll post a few photos later!
Have a great day!
-Cassandra!

the mail goes so slowly...! at 1:29 PM



Hi again!
Yesterday was Brendan and my two year anniversary!
Congrats to us!

Anywho, I just ordered a lovely skirt from Miss Muertes on the EGL comm sales!
I'm very excited because it will be my first btssb skirt!

it's the Mother Goose print in Pink, rather than Blue

It's really a lovely print, and the nursery rhyme Hey Diddle Diddle was one of my absolute favorites as a kid!

I might actually wear it to Fantaisies dans le Monde des Rêves!

I am so so excited! It will be quite the adventure, as I'm planning on pretty much road-tripping it up to San Jose with a few other Lolitas! I've never really done anything quite like it before, so I'm very eager for the 28th!

Expect many pictures!

In other news the maid cafe I applied to turned me down...
I guess I'm not that surprised.

Don't mind me just sulking in the corner..

Oh well, life goes on!
Have a lovely day!
-San!

Hey guys! Miss me? ^o^
I've kind of let my blog grow cobwebs...

So much has happened since my last post! I don't even know where to start!
I applied to a maid cafe quite a while ago and just got turned down ...
I'm not feeling the best, so I guess I'll just post some pictures I've taken ~


I've moved into a new place~
It was all creme colored and it was driving me crazy! So I painted the walls pink!


Also! I got a puppy dog!
His name is Lt. Moogle, and he's almost 2 years old!
He's a "Pomimo"
(which is half Pomeranian and half American Eskimo!)


He's so cute! He's a little diva~


In the summer I went to Tokyo with my father and then Kanazawa for the rest of the month with a host family!


This is my host family!

It was a lot of fun being in Kanazawa! There was a lot of "engrish" there~ I'll post a seperate blog I think about all the engrish that I encountered!


In Tokyo I was able to visit Harajuku and go to many of my favorite brand stores!
:D It was really fun!


Anyways so now I'm in college and it's really cool to think that I'm living alone, though it is rather lonely. In Japan I was able to make it to Tenshi no Sato, which is the largest Volks doll store/museum/garden/cafe in Japan!


It was great, because I was able to sit down and custom make a lovely little girly doll named Melody!


She's a sweetie!

And I also got a lovely little limited Pipos kitty named MIshka!


So with a couple new additions to the dolly family it's not quite as lonely as before~


I'm hoping to soon learn how to play the Cello! I have a lovely (but super cheap and kinda broken pink cello that I'm hoping isn't too awful to learn how to play on!)


Anyways this is one of my longest posts ever!
I think maybe I'll have to break up the catch-up posts into a few~

Until next time!
Love, San!

International Lolita Day at 12:36 PM



Hey there!
Can you believe it? I'm graduating next week!
No more high school!

Well I have a lot of cleaning to do today...
OH YEAH I FORGOT!


Happy International Lolita day!
Since I'm not able to go out and celebrate with my Lolita friends I decided to make up for it by joining a Lolita forum! Turns out Frances is on it as well!

~click the image~


Have a great day!
Until later~
San!

good and bad at 10:04 AM


Hello!
Isn't today lovely?
Good news and bad news it seems today though....
Good news first!
Oliver had a lump on his neck and the vets were able to remove it! He's just fine~
(while he was in surgery too, they neutered him. Poor little guy must be in pain...)
Also, CATS is going great! Everyone should come see it!

And that's that!


As for bad news...
The dumb mailman sent the package I've been waiting for for a month BACK to Korea for some reason! Now I'm trying to get in touch with Unidoll but they haven't emailed me back...
It's so frustrating!

Anyways, so I was thinking about getting circle lenses and in my research I discovered this beautiful girl's blog-


Click the photo to see her blog!

She is super fashionable...
I'm thinking of making a live journal just to get in touch with her, and learn her secrets! Though I'm not sure if that sounds creepy or not... hehe~

But yeah, haha, circle lenses.

ALSO, can you believe this story?!
"the future shock"
I'm still not sure if I believe it's true...
It sounds too insane!

But fact is stranger than fiction I suppose!


Have a great day!
-San

It's spelled "a-n-t-i-c-i-p-a-t-i-o-n" at 9:58 PM



Evening! It's been so long. Sorry for such a longtime in between updates.
Still, even though I'm writing nothing really important has happened between the last post and this one...
Nothing but the growing anticipation of the upcoming adventure to Japan!
(And graduation!)
And I'm excited to get new clothes for my trip. (Very cold in Kanazawa in July I hear...)
I found this amazingly adorable shop with lots of great fashion-



Also, anyone ever hear about the morning banana diet?
You think it works?



Next weekend though is CATS rehearsal, so expect a ton of awesome pictures soon!



!

Love, San!
