Sam Shik, Mashimaro and Sam Soon need a bath.

< - - - - - I hate my phone. It's so BORING! There’s not much I can do about it, it’s the most un-customizable phone ever, DONOTWANT!! But I only want a DoCoMo Keitai, and that’s for later (get the answer in future posts). So I’m trying to make it as appealing as possible. Does anyone know a way to control multiple straps?? Like something of a unistrap!?!

As posted I have opened a shop at etsy looking for a treat from opening and getting the first sale and discovered this great little shop, Ice Cream Drops. They sell the most delicious looking keitai straps, and that’s not just it! You can buy stationary, bento boxes, and other kitchen/bedroom accessories from Japan there.
Every time I see bento boxes I want one, but it’s the lunch inside’s appearance which counts right? Plus, if I got food to look that cute I certainly wouldn’t be doing any eating.

I have to re-enrol at college tomorrow (BLEURGH!). This year my negative feeling isn’t to do with the people in the class, it’s going to be a whole new class, older students, new teacher, new room, a different style of college.
I’m negative because I just think that the course is going to be really hard, everything I do has to be for my portfolio, so it has to be the best. I can’t even think about trying to be top of the class because I know everyone else will be older and more design experienced than me from the start.
This summer I’ve lost my drive for working at all. It doesn’t help that my new tutor actually said “NO JAPANESE INFLUENCES!”, at interview (she was looking at my Lolita project, of course it was predominately Japan influenced…). It’s frustrating.

The only positive thing is the possibility of making new friends. I’m gonna pounce on anyone who looks remotely Visual-kei. You can’t tell as easily for BIG BANG and We Got Married Fans…
I LOVE We Got Married SO MUCH!! It’s so painful waiting for new episodes. I don’t know what I’ll do when it ends. WAIT. IT WILL NEVER END!!!

Once freely mentioned a few months back, my idea has become a real thing.

Through running fanlistings you see a lot of different ‘names’ go through. Some belong to OTT fangirls (who I reject. “I’m not Yamamoto Yusuke and if I were I certainly wouldn’t want to be with you!”) . I noticed some thing I find to be strange. Have you ever heard of those Japanese name generators? Where you can make up your own name?

So, um, some people actually use that as their name! It’s not like;
Hello, My name is Reina.
No it’s like;
Hello, My name is Yamasaki Sakura.
（ ￣ □ ￣ ； ）!!!!!!
And don’t get me started on those girls who put their country as Japan when, they really DON’T live there. Or the best one, the self attached -chan’s - What should I call you then, Sakura-chan-CHAN?!?!

I understand and really like the culture of kids in China choosing their own English names. You get girls calling themselves boys names (which aren’t really unisex). I know this because I’ve met a girl called William!
I love the kids who had hundreds of Englsh names to choose from but have ended up named after an object, or insect…
What’s up, Earwig!
Earwig: It sounded interesting!

My real name is Hadiya, but I use the nickname Hachi because it looked like a shorter way to spell my name in katakana. Not because I particularly liked the name or anything.

really happening now?
After weeks/months of denying it, I have really lost the will to blog.

But don’t be surprised if the will comes back in a few days.

If looks don’t matter and they go for personality what are you supposed to do if your’s isn’t right? That’s personality, you can’t get any deeper than that.

I JUST NEED A JOB!!!! I’m so poor my socks all have holes in them T_T

I really hate this process. If I can’t get a paid job this summer it really ruins my plans for the upcoming year. I wish I could just get a dream job. Apart from being a Menswear designer and stylist, well, before that, these are the jobs I’d love to do;

• A professional J/K/T-drama reviewer
• Work in a cake shop selling beautiful pastries and the like
• Work at Super Lovers (London branch moved to Leeds??!!)
• Be a cosplay judge
• Work at Coffee Prince with Sun Ki (XP)
• Work at the London branch of the Johnny’s Store
• Found and run a salon in Camden specialising in Visual Kei hairstyles
• “World’s Sexiest Man” list chooser
• Work in something of a J-mag depository, we’d sell and buy new issues and could take as many as we wanted for free…

I over think everything. Especially blogging as a verb. I guess normal people just type and click with ease but I’m constantly worrying about how I come across and why people would bother read this.

I question whether I’m being myself. Offline I’m not like this, but would like to be. This is the real me. I wonder if I come across as arrogant. But do I think of other bloggers who talk mostly about themselves as that? No. But what if there were an incredibly arrogant, self-centered person writing? Would you stop visiting their site? Or would you continue to look, even if you disliked the person?

The only time I’ve seen visitors leave, or have stopped visiting sites myself if not because of memory or boredom, is when thieves are exposed. It can be forgiven if they apologize, but if they continue to deny that they ever stole / copied from another site after being exposed that’s when it stops. I think that those who steal and refuse to accept the fact that they’ve been caught are..to put it lightly, a little bit mental.

90% of the time, for a while now, it’s always the same names who leave comments on this blog. Why? Because I alienate those who don’t know me? / Because others are scared to comment due to the nature of my posts? Perhaps, but it has to be because I don’t really comment myself. How do people find out about things without promotion?
It’s a serious problem, I think it’s a fear, I can’t comment on anything any more. I don’t want to sound patronising or know-it-all or “just to promote my site message”.
Ah. I hate starting things with Ah it’s the worst way to be addressed before your name. Every now and then I get frustrated with comments here and think, “Maybe just leave it, you obviously don’t like 3/4 of blogging”.
I see the point of having a blog nobody else reads but couldn’t bear one myself. When you post you need comments to tell you someone read it, someone’s there.

So what would make for an interesting blog which happens to be set in London?
All night parties? Romantic scenarios? Constant Looking-up-at-camera-and-pouting pictures?

This summer I can work on two out of three but hopefully you’ll be happy with content such as, “Today I went to Beard Papa and got cream puffs.”
