Yesterday me and dad took Cissi with us and went to our cottage. Our sole purpose was to get an oak wardrobe that I wanted for my room, but we spent a while there too. Had lunch and coffee made over the open fire and took a beautiful walk.
It was cold, -4degrees celcius, and apparently it hade been snowing, because it was white everywhere!
I couldn't help but get snap-happy (and then I dropped my camera in the snow so the lense got wet :P).

Finally cutting my hair on thursday. I can't wait.

Oh, it happened again.
I find this behaviour pathetic. If you don't help us make the forum better then you don't have the rights to complain. Gtfo, is all I have to say to you.
Also, lame person is lame.
Leave that petty drama out of my forum. I'm in a pissy mood, and ban-hammer? I has it.

Btw, maybe it's just that I've been into lolita for so long, and also has followed the forum from the start, but I haven't noticed a huge increase of new lolis. There has always been newbies. The poster of the secret was probably considered an annoying newbie once too, lol.

I died and went to heaven. Metamo, my love for you is endless.

I totally bought the wrong hair dye. It's still red though, so I hope it will be fine. When I started applying it to my hair it looked brown and I almost freaked!

I'm going to Uleåborg/Oulo in Finland tomorrow. Just a short trip with dad and sis & spending the night there! It'll be nice.

I took the apartment! We'll be moving in September. I can't wait.
In other news... have some pictures.

( Photo-dump! )

Due to a post on egl I made a lolita timeline. You can see it here.
I used to (and I guess still do) wear whatever I felt like and rarely wore full lolita. 2001-2002 I had my blueXblack faze, because of Mana. It was almost the only colors I wore, although I didn't wear lolita back then. I also liked schoolgirly styles with miniskirts, shirts and jackets.
In 2002-2003 I started out with loli after lurking for a while, and like so many others I wore almost exclusively blackXwhite at the beginning. Then I suddenly went ALL light blue. Everything I wore; skirts, pants, tops.
2005 my pink faze started, although I just noticed that I missed to include a picture of me from summer 2005. Anyway, it was all pink in 2006 as well. I have also never, not before or after, been as thin as I was then. I'm not sure what made me thin though, because I wasn't dieting or working out, at all.
In fall 2006 I started working at shell and in 2007 I pretty much stopped sewing and started buying all brand. I also got so tired of pink that I still dislike wearing it. In 2008 I finally dyed my hair red. I secretly wanted to have red hair ever since 2001 when I fell in love with IZAM of SHAZNA, and later because of Maki and Nana Kitade.
I finally started seriously buying Emily temple cute and Jane Marple, which I've wanted to for ages but never got around to. The fluff got in the way.

Fun fact: I used to think that there was no way I could fit into lolitabrands, because I always saw myself as fat (what you get told as a kid can stick in your head forever). Back in the days when few people bought clothes from Japan everybody said that brand was so TINY, not american/european sized at all. And thus, since I was "fat", I thought it was a lost case. I didn't even bother comparing my measurements.
I didn't realise that I was wrong until 05-06 sometime when a friend of mine bought an un-shirred dress with a 86cm bust from Baby. I tried it on, and it fit! I was amazed.

In 6 hours I'll be on my way to Stockholm! I've been looking forward to this trip for months now. I'm so anxious to get going!
I'm not done packing just yet, and I'm so confused about what to pack and what I've already packed.
I usually enjoy packing because I'm very thorough and always decide outfits to wear, and everything I pack need to match so that I can come up with new outfits if I want to.
Something feels wrong this time though, and I'm not sure what it is. I feel like I've packed too much, yet I haven't filled my bag which should mean that I might have forgotten something.
I am also afraid that the clothes I've packed are too warm for the weather down south, but looking at the weather prognosis it seems we won't get very nice weather...

I'm nervous. What if it's raining on Saturday? what do I do with 50 lolitas in the rain?
DX

emiru wondered what I look like in the morning...
( so here you go! enjoy ;D )

Now I'm off to school. Hurry hurry.

I posted this picture meme on my blog and I thought I'd post it here as well;

I had a great time taking pictures, especially digging through my accessories and shoes made me appreciate my wardrobe a little bit more. I suggest everyone does this! not only because I really, really want to see what everyone posts, but because it's fun to do it as well.
Still, my clothes are very much all over the place... when will I get structure?
My dad would say "You never will!". I know because he said that about my furnishing too...and he knows me pretty well, haha!

I'm reading The kite runner by Khaled Hosseini (for english class). It's beautifully written and very sad. I think I like it.

I went all over town to find a tailor, ended up with some unpleasant woman who sells ballgowns. Went home again to check the yellow pages and found a seamstress within 1 minute walking distance from my apartment and a tailor (who'd even been featured in the local newspaper) within 5 minutes walking.
Lesson learned: RESEARCH FIRST

I was gonna alter my logo print JSK, ended up breaking the zipper. Wtf.
I'm taking my hands off that thing before I do something terrible by accident.

I want rabbit cafe in mint! D; I don't know why, I just do. I was talking to Josephine yesterday about how Meta is so easy to wear, and feels so casual. There's no other brand that I can just throw on and look (and feel!) so good in. I'm never scared of ruining my clothes when I wear it either, why is that?

Tonight we're eating bbq and watching the bonfires! now we have to go grocery shopping. We are always so late with things...

Today I paid for my latest order from Mai. JM logoprint zomg! I really want a straw boater hat to go with it, but I guess I'll leave that until summer. I've been shopping too much the past week. Mostly things for the spring meetup and the fashion show, but I also bought a new hair straightener. One of the pigs bit off the cord on my old one D:

I'll probably continue my closet cleanout. IW emblem print skirt will go, and my tartan aatp-skirt too. Maybe the aatp-bolero as well. I haven't been using any of that lately. I guess it's time I go for the emikyu/marple-look that I've been wanting so long.
It's funny, I'm not in the mood to wear lolita, but I'm not in the mood to wear anything else either. I think I'll start walking around naked.
I want to get rid of some random offbrand crap too, I hate when my closet gets cluttered with old wornout stuff.


The weather has been fab the past few days. It's been so sunny I get headaches XD
( 2 outfit shots to make this post more interesting )

Joakim turns 22 tomorrow! we are going to his family for dinner, mmm *_*

I thinking about selling my h.naoto dress and buy this JM dress instead.

( reasons to keep it: memories of a dress )

Aghh, tough decision.
And I feel like buying TA, but there's nothing on auction right now.

( trying on some clothes )

We got a new member of the family today! His name is Tokugawa and he's adorable. Doesn't talk much though...
I'll try to take pictures tomorrow.

This weekend at work was hellish. I felt, and still feel, that I never want to work there ever again.
Oh and I slipped on ice last night and took the fall with my hand so now my wrist really hurts. It didn´t hurt yesterday but now it hurts a lot... so stupid :(
I downloaded the new version of msn messenger and now I can't log in. Awesome tokis found someone who had the exe-file of the old messenger though, so he's uploading it for me. Hopefully it'll work!
All these crappy things keep happening. Am I cursed? Is it bad karma, did I do something? ughh.

I took a bite of fork and broke my front teeth. UGHHH. Great. Not a huge difference unless you know my teeth, but they´re sharp. So I might have to go to the dentist, only... WHEN? I don´t have time!
