OKAY so this isn't REALLY a halloween post..
I have been reduced to naming my picture files boring things like "2006-11-01_01.jpg" because I can't keep coming up with random things like "kawaiistuff" or "lookhowcutefioriistodayoneonee!!". Damn!
I will make my Halloween post as soon as the things I need for it come in the mail. I'm waiting on some stuff for a photoshoot, specifically a certain Pullip U_U and some clothes.. so it will come late.. but halloween is so awesome, it should be celebrated every day!! RIGHT?! *pathetic play at covering up patheticness*
The reason my halloweens & most especially christmases tend to suck is my dad is just a complete asshole. He is one of those type of people that seems to make the most problems and fuss on holidays, to the point where all I end up is in a depressed mess, loathing the next holiday (including my birthday).
BUT I'm trying to keep this post happy.. so I got some cute packages yesterday..! Firstly, my mom came in my room on the morning of Halloween (while I was in a groggy gaze) and said "Happy Halloween!" and handed me a disney box and card. Too sweet! What was inside..
Aiie! No my mom didn't get me the Sally doll, haha! I got that a couple months ago thanks to my dear friend Jessica, but I used her for decoration of my awesome new Nightmare Before Christmas cup ^o^!
It's funny, I wasn't expecting it at all. We went to the mall a couple nights before to get my Sanrio things, and we stopped into the Disney store to look around (as per usual). I saw the NBC cup and squealed.. mom insisted she would get it for me, so I brought it to the register. At the last minute I backed out, because to be honest with my parent's recent money situation I felt awkward having her buy me something, so I put it back..
We went to the mall again on Halloween to pick up some supplies, and I didn't have an inkling at all she got me the cup! She said she was going to the dollar store at the other end to get chocolate for the kid's bags. She FINALLY came back to the Sanrio store to meet up with me, I was wondering why she took so long and why she had such a HUGE bag. She said "Hahaha I bought around 8 bags of chocolate!". I totally bought it LOL..
The cup features the trio Lock, Shock, & Barrel trick-or-treating around Halloweentown with Zero. It's so cute, one of the neat things about it is the characters have this "pop-out" look to them.. which you can see on the side of the cup in the later pictures.
The package was a big surprise. I ordered from Strapya (a cell store in Japan) about a week ago, and it was shipped on the 28th. Imagine my surprise when it got on my front steps on the 31st!! I mean yeesh, airmail too. I don't even get airmail that fast from California!
Anyway, I got a few cuties, mainly as an "add-on" to my main order for something for my friend & for my girls. Everything was super cheap and ended up under $10.
Everyone that knows me really well knows my love for teruterubozu, and how special the character is to me. So I couldn't resist this glass keychain/cell strap. He is sooo much smaller than I expected! Not even 1" long.. so I might make him into a lil necklace or something for my pullips ^^
AND anyone that has met me should know my love for lemons & yellow! (I mean, lemonyokan.. hellooo!) XD So I had to pick up this guy.. he was just as I thought, super duper cute.. so cute I might make him as a necklace to wear ^o^
My main purchase there was this miniature Nintendo DS. It's a trading toy/shokugan, so you don't know which you will get untill you open. I was very pleased to get a Nintendogs one! but.. not so pleased to get a teal DS. I already have a teal DS from the older sets of DS minis, but it's not so bad.
The outside of the box, and little screens, are all incredibly detailed. The back even has all the little writting just like the game case.. and the screens are an actual point in the game (like Miaka once pointed out).
The cutest thing..
Inside is an actual little game cartridge!! *g* How cute is that?! I love it! Too bad you can't take the cartdrige out.. or at least I couldn't figure it out, I nudged it with many things XD! Either way it's adorable, and I'll deffinitally get more when I'm not piss-poor. This one is going to be a christmas gift for one of my girls.
One of the cuter things I got at the Sanrio store was this Tenorikuma folder:
It came with letter sets I bought for my shop.. yay for little freebies for me! Everything else I bought was just for my shop (in hopes to make money U_U) and I got a couple little gifts for my friends (can you tell I love to give gifts? T_T)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN BONUS PICTURE OF MY DOGGY!!
For those that haven't seen XD (everyone but my BF & linds basically..)
AND some news!! I am getting one of my Pullip grails! Paja! I found her for $65 so I snagged her, since she's up to around $150-200 now.. I couldn't pass up an amazing deal like that. She should be here within the week. Seller says "MIB" but I think she will arrive with her head falling off, dress chopped up, and scribbles from a ballpoint pen on her face because I don't buy the goodness of the deal! XD
Money wise, I know it was stupid, but I figured, hey, all these people are going to pay me!!! but.. now I'm thinking, maybe not.. meh.
Blah I am still in a crappy mood. I am getting more and more stressed out with money things. I am quickly realising the people that owe me money just might leave me dry (about 20 people!! U_U). There is no way in hell I'm not paying Nix & Linds, but I might have to cancel my preorder for the rozen maiden limiteds -_-; I know it's my fault, I know that clearly.. but blah, I still am left with a sour taste. It's like all the deadbeats decided to go to my shop in october.
I wouldn't be so stressed if I didn't find out that I have to help my parents pay for something (another $50).. meh. I'm so stupid. T_T; I really hope I make enough in time to pay Shana. Time to work like a dog on eBay.
ANYWAY..
Leave comments pleeease, and I hope you enjoyed.. hopefully I will make that halloween post soon ♥ Love you alls.
