Late night shopping

Late night shopping for funeral appropriate clothes since I found that I didn’t really have anything to wear. Most of my dressier clothes are more for parties or concerts.

So, since I needed a boost to stay up, that called for a white chocolate mocha. It didn’t take me long to find an outfit, though, so now I can go home and crash for the night.

Mochi

I’ve discovered that my cat really loves mochi (no surprise, really). I never give him very much, but only a tiny bit for a treat now and then. But more than mochi, he really really loves red bean paste, haha. I usually have to fight the little guy off of me when I’m eating it.

And, nothing to do with the above, I’m glad it’s finally Friday tomorrow. In going to spend the weekend resting and making more items for my shop, so if you’re keeping up with my shop look forward to new items soon!

I finally received my birthday present (though, technically I haven’t been reimbursed for it, so at the moment, it’s my present to myself, haha). Kiryu’s Shuka ensen tour DVD and document, the FC boxset version.


I’m glad it’s finally in my hands, though I’m not happy with how the postal service ruined it.

The box was smashed in on one side and that caused the box surrounding the DVDs to crack, also causing the 5th DVDs case to snap nearly in two.

However, the DVDs are fine and while I could file a claim with the postal service, there’s just too much hassle involved so I’ll fix it up myself.

More about the actual DVD later after I’ve watched them all!

2013 Wishes

I decided to make a wish jar for the new year rather than write out a boring list of resolutions. This way I have a pretty visual and a reminder to strive to make the wishes and goals within the stars come true.

My first day of the year has been a lazy one, but it’s my last day off, so I felt rest was more important.

I hope everyone’s first day was a good one!

2013

Happy New Year!

Looking back, 2012 was a rough year, but it wasn’t completely terrible for me. It was more of a frustrating year than a plain bad one.

Though, it did end on a sad note for my roommate and her family with her grandmother’s passing in the early morning of New Year’s Eve. I’m trying to do what I can to help, but I’m terrible at this sort of thing, even with my own family. The good thing is that she was able to live out one more year and spend every holiday with her family and she passed away surrounded by loved ones. With that, I think she’s able to rest in peace.

I say it every year, but this year I want to make sure to update a lot. I usually get behind because of how busy my job gets and I end up too tired to do much when I come home, but this year I’m not going to let my job wear me out anymore. My focus is going to be on me this year to better myself and keep myself healthy. I don’t want to be this negative, stressed out, and unhealthy person that my job has caused me to become.

That said, here’s to making 2013 better than 2012~!
