We celebrated my dad's birthday today. I made him a most awesome cake. A most awesomely lame cake, actually. Oh well. It amused him and that's all that matters. :3 ( Read more... )

So after two unhappy posts, I think it's time for a shiny update. I'm home from Otakon/Allie's house, and feeling especially good. Mom and I went shopping for dorm stuff, but only ended up coming home with a few jeans for my brother, Coraline on DVD, and patterns/fabric for cosplay. I've added Kamatari from Rurouni Kenshin to my list of future ( Read more... )

48 hours until my parents arrive. Luckily I have been able to keep myself amused these last few days. Sunday I went to Shilin Night Market with Whitney. We went to a VK/Lolita store and tried on a bunch of clothes (well, I tried on, she was reluctantly forced into a Lolita dress). I wanted to buy something but I HAVE NO MONEY. Seriously. I have $ ( Read more... )

I went after school to buy Allie's Russia wig today. Whitney went with me, since wig shopping is no fun alone. She gave me my belated birthday present too ( Read more... )

Wow... is this a proper update? I'm surprised with myself!

So I went to a book exhibition with my host sisters. It took place in three huge buildings next to the Taipei 101. The first was normal books and had a small English section. We spent two hours there and I picked up the screenplay version of Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. Not much excitement ( Read more... )

I went to Jenny's with Whitney today to pick up the Chinese style dress Jenny had made for me. It came out really, really nice. It's blue with silver flowers, and I'll have pictures to put up when Jenny sends them to me ( Read more... )

Went to Ximending with Whitney after culture class. We found a TGI Fridays and ate there for dinner. Yes, mad expensive compared to everything else in Taiwan, but we were both craving American food and it was well worth it. I showed Whitney the Animate store I love so much and she spent over $1000 NT on manga (About $30 US, and she got like, ten ( Read more... )

I own it. BE JEALOUS, ALLISON! BE JEALOUS!

Also, went to Ximending with Breanna and Pauline. It was made of win. : )

I went with Mou-Jia and Mou-Yuen, my host sisters, to Mou-Jia's high school's anniversary party. We went through a haunted house set up by the students. The line to get in was huge, but it was worth it. They did a great job. I'm tempted to say almost better than Lynn does with her basement. It's a very close call. Poor Mou-Jia was totally scared ( Read more... )

Okay, because I am lazy and have not updated in foreverness, here's a summary of my week, which was surprisingly exciting ( Read more... )
