My Xmas

Argh, I just wrote a long post with my phone and suddenly Blogger just decided to delete everything. Well, here's a brief version.

☆Went to my parents place, took over 8 hours to get there

☆Didn't do much except met relatives and family friends and watched tv

☆Got some nice presents, like money for Steam from my sister, the fluffiest bathrobe from my boyfriend, a carpet from my uncle's lady friend and a jewelry stand from myself!

☆Am on my way home now

And here's some pictures! 

How was your holiday season this year?

~Month Away~

Hello everyone~ I just noticed due to Facebook updates that Christmas Eve is only a month away! I haven't even bought any gifts yet, gah! Should probably get to that soon to avoid the annual panic...

Today I went to have some "coffee" with Miinu and Kati. I already wore lenses yesterday so I wanted to let my eyes rest. Also my eyelid got irritated from lashes so I only wore short ones on the outer corners. But at least it wasn't as heavy on my eyes, so that was nice!

Our plan was to go see the Christmas lights being lit on Aleksanterinkatu, but it was so bright (as you can see) when we went there around 3 PM. that we decided to come back later. So we went to a cafe and after that, McDonald's :'D After all the talking we decided to go walk around since it was dark already! The lights looked really pretty and it didn't feel like Finland at all!

Did some grocery shopping and I decided to try to be healthy and eat salad at work! I have also been thinking about starting to go to the gym since we now have one for our company use in the same building I work in... I just need the motivation to start! :'D

Hello gals~ We had a late Halloween party with Finnish (one in training! ; D) gals yesterday, so here's some photo evidence that I left the comfort of my apartment to talk with some people face to face!

And finally my outfit! Deer headband made by me (oh that floppy antler, ergh...), dress Liz Lisa, socks from tutuanna, shoes from Yumetenbo, jewelry from random shops.

Did you celebrate Halloween? In Finland it's not such a big thing yet, I feel like we are missing out ; _ ; But at least this party was awesome, I'm so grateful I got to meet so many nice people again ♥ Now just waiting for someone to start organizing a Christmas event, winkwinkhinthint~ ; D

Turbo♥Sunday

So last Sunday we had decided to meet with some gals! We didn't have any specific plans except look pretty and take some pictures while we're at it! As you can see.

So first we just went to hang out in Tennispalatsi, and after chatting for a while we decided to check if there would be any interesting movies to watch! We ended up in getting tickets for Turbo!

The only 2D show was in another movie theater, which luckily is located near Kluuvi! So off we went to take some pictures in the heavenly light! Seriously though, Finland is getting so friggin' dark, so depressing TTnTT'

Some random guy wanted a picture with us... we should've pulled these faces. I'm pretty conflicted about people taking pictures, it's flattering in a way that someone would think we look interesting enough and then again you feel kind of like a circus freak or something.... . _ .' Ofcourse it's hard to tell the difference with us, as you can see :'D

Pin, me, Jasmin and Miinu

Everyone who were able to attend that day! We were missing 3 other girls, Kati, Ronja and Anniina! Hopefully you guys will be able to make it the next time! :3

 

And finally some proper pictures! I am wearing the wig I showed you in my last post! I'm quite happy how it looks in the pictures, tbh it's not as pretty irl... :'D Oh well, better luck next time I guess!

Thank you girls, I had a great time~

Wiggity♥Swag

So anyone who is familiar with Pin knows what awesome hair looks like, right? We have met at meetups couple of times now and I was so amazed how huge her hair really is! So I asked a few tips, googled some tutorials and decided to try to tweak one of my wigs.

I was stupid and didn't take a "before" picture, but it was this wig and it was super tangled at the ends!

So, since I didn't really know what to do since the fiber on the wig seemed so rough, I was like What the heck! I had talked with the girls at the last meetup that if the wig is already full of knots ( or, in other words, curly!) it doesn't really matter if there are a few more knots! :'3

In hindsight, I should have had more hair rollers to work with. I had to take quite big strands of hair per roller, so I couldn't roll them all the way to the "scalp".

So what I did next is sink the wig into a hot bucket of water! I turned the water as hot as possible and then let it cool down.

After the water had cooled down I hung my hairy medusa to air dry! I guess it would've taken like 2 days to be completely dry since I had such thick strands and those rollers sucked so much water in. But since I was busy during the week I let it dry like 5 days or so. At least it was ready then, haha! ´3`' 

So this is what the wig looked like after drying and these were my weapons for the task! That hairspray is like one of the cheapest you can find from a regular grocery store, but since Pin recommended it I decided to take her word for it and try it out! It proved to be quite powerful indeed!

Work in progress with the teasing! (Why does my hand look so huge...) It was quite difficult because I rarely tease my own hair, and the fiber was quite slippery. But it got easier with each strand! I still have to learn the correct technique and I will probably make some adjustments later! I got the wig to be fluffier than before but not as fluffy as I wanted it to be!

So, how did it turn out in the end? I have a mess in my bathroom at least. Maybe the wig is not as voluminous at the top as I wanted it to be but at least the curls are fluffy!

So here was the short story of my first wig modification! Sorry for the no-makeup pictures, haven't been able to wear any for a while now since I have some problems with my eyes ; _ ;

If you have any questions, ask away!

Have a great weekend! ´^`~♥

~Autumn Mini Meetup~

This weekend we had a small meetup with some awesome gals! We went to take pictures, ate pizza and just talked and laughed at our derpiness. We also had a lovely furry friend with us, which didn't really help my dog fever ♥

I was the only one not throwing leaves since I put on the timer

Gyaru Me2 † HKI †

I went to my first ever Gyaru meetup today! I had so much fun talking with you guys, thank you! :3

Everyone was looking so nice! ; _ ;

Excuse my derpy face, I was laughing at
the pose of the person taking a picture :'D

I think I liked this look better with my jacket...

Don't really know what to write, I hope I get to meet everyone soon again! : )
