Tribute to Kagrra. Isshi. My Respect.

Today I feel sad. I know, I am a little bit late in recieving the news of Isshi's passing away.

Its been a while since i've made contact with J-rock, visual kei music (Vocaloid got to me). But a few hours ago, I stumbled upon a post stating the death of Isshi from Kagrra...

This brings me great saddness.However I feel that it would be right to post about the band which got me into J-rock.
I first saw Kagrra in a NEO magazine I bought from WHsmiths in 2008 on my way back from the beach, originally, I bought it because it had a section on XXXholic inside haha, but then! lo and behold!



Entertainers of Gods FTW!

   <-- I'm afraid I cut out the art cover of their latest song Uzu at the time, to stick on the cover of  my art book. (^ ^);

After I saw this I looked em up,and listened to some of their music.At first, I was thinking...Isshi's got a really girly voice, but then after listening to a few more of their songs i began to love their free, relaxing and flowy music.

And thanks to them, I was able to find the rest of the bands from PS COMPANY!!Miyavi, The Gazette, Alice nine, Kra, SuG. ..(watery smile)

Another thing, which isn't so much about the beautiful music they produced, but more on the way they dressed.IT WAS SO NEW AND GORGEOUS.They really changed my view on clothes and totally got me into Kimono fashion. and oh yeah..can't forget about the hair ^^


Isshi trendy hair <3 


I love the fact that I copied Ishhi's flicks in 2008, and yet in 2011. THEY ARE STILL THERE! (>.<)/
As i'm writing this entry, i'm beginning to see the impact one band can have on a person and that even though they aren't related to you in any way. You can still feel like they were (forgive this epic lump of cheese) someone frickin special in your heart! <3

Rest in Peace. The most beautiful voice in Rock. xxx

I am currently finding ways on how to blog quicker and more efficiently, using the ipod is.. ok. however i am not allowed access to my photos on my ipod. can only upload photos with an url :/

My First Circle Lens (Eyecandylens) Geo Honey wing in Brown.

Wazzup!! Its bin a while Xp I've finished all my exams now :) so i can relax (kinda) and destress myself (unlikely).
Onwards! I decided to join the crazy circle lens faze! Originally my first order was for the EOS adult grey lenses from Mycandyeyes. However they failed to deliver and reply to my e-mails so I opened up a paypal dispute and got my money back. Whats quite freaky is that i'm the only one who got into this situation. I've read loads of comments about Mycandyeyes failure to deliver their lenses in the april-may period.

Even so, I decided to try out another internet shop ( you would have thought i would be put off by now haha)
I eventually found Eyecandylens, whats cool about them is that they have FREE SHIPPING worldwide! :D
The lens are a reasonable price, not too expensive and not suspiciously cheap. The site is also easy to navigate but it would be cooler if they had a "prices from lowest/highest" tab.
Whats also good about this place is that the costumers can review the lens they bought, and they also have a Facebook page,where people can review and talk to them, which i think it quite good because then if something like MycandyEyes happened. You would know! Ah, they also have a blog which reviews lens, which u can check out and it can help you decide which lenses to buy :D

Communication: They sent me the necessary e-mails, informing me when they had dispatched the lens etc.
                         but I personally didn't speak to them about anything because I had no problems.
Shipping: IS FAST. They dispatched my items 2 days after I ordered. ( I ordered on a saturday evening, and they dispatched monday morn) I recieved a tracking number to keep an eye on my items whereabouts. It took 10 days to arrive in the UK from HK.

In my package i recieved two bottles wrapped in bubble wrap in a cute drawstring pocket.

Pretty tightly packed nee!

My circle lens! with mostaches for that added coolness

They also gave me a card to keep track on when my lens expire!

I used Elisa Sungs video to help me cleanse my lens for wear. Since we live in different countries i used a different solution to deep cleanse my lenses but essentially has the same effect.

<-- Welcome EasySept! This solution is for deep cleansing of proteins and other bacteria which could be on the lenses. It will take 6hours to complete the cleansing cycle, be aware not to put them in before then, because its a peroxide solution it will damage your pretty eyes.




<-- You can tell its working when you see all those bubbles! For this solution you must only use the lens case provided.

After using this deep cleanse solution, I changed to a multi-purpose solution.  It is called COMPLETE RevitaLens ( I bought it from my nearest Asda) It comes with a case and a bottle of solution w. instructions.


GEO HONEY WING REVIEW.(14mm)



natural light. My iris is 11mm, so this is pretty enlarging for me!



with flash. looking bug eyed in the morning haha

 Comfort: Very comfortable!I actually wore them for more than 8 hours yesterday...(ashamed)
I could feel them at the beginning, but after wearing them for a while, i couldn't feel them at all :) But for people who have never worn contacts before, it might be a strange sensation before your eyes adjust to them.
Enlargement: I can officially say i look scary with these on.I guess they make me look more awake :L they are very enlarging for me. I dread the day i decide to try 15mm ones haha
Colour: Its ok, but i would prefer the colour to show up more as it blends nearly too well with my natural eyecolour.
Other comments: I LIKE THESE! haha, I would like to say these are natural but people would definately notice if i had these on. dame my small eyes! I've read that some contact lens are a bit slow in following your eye movement. ( i've also seen pictures concerning this) but these are very good.

<-- Even follows when you do the cross eye haha
I think these need some getting use to, but apart from that. I'm all for circle lens!
Just remember to clean them after every usage to make them last that year!!








 Thank you for reading! :)

Summer Hayfever

Good Afternoon Y'all~

So the weather has been quite bipolar over the past couple of weeks but today, it has finally decided to be sunny! :D Hopefully it decides to stay sunny for. . Glastonbury Festival!! Yes, peeps. Its my first Festival ever. lol. I hope I don't get lost or fall in a ditch somewhere.
------------------------------------------
Yay for the summer! ^^ Beach! Holidays!. .Exams (- -) ..Hayfever (- -)
My Hayfever is terrifying haha, every time it hits summer I have to take hayfever tablets until around july. Which is okay, not complaining, clears up my nose. but what sucks about having hayfever is that I sneeze, all the time, at odd moments in the day ( thankfully haven't yet sneezed in an exam, i think i'm too anxious to sneeze lol) and what makes it terrifying is that i sneeze LOUDLY. like, my family can here me even when they are in the garden or something :L
Seeing as i've just entered a new college, + new classes + new friends, not many people knew of my freaky ass loud sneezes until like. . last week.
(SCENE)
*Guys sitting around table playing cards*
Sammies: Hm, I have an exam in the afternoon so won't be in psychology today guys.
Everyone else:good luck in your exam sammie!
*comes back to table after getting bottle of water
Me: Oh yeah, Good luck Sam- ACHOOO
Everyone else:. . . . .wtf. man.
(SCENE)
Yeah so it basically went something like that hahaha.
...what i'm really afraid of is if i sneeze like that again and a lil flying booger attaches to someone elses clothing. (RETRACK TO XIAXIU GETTING A BOOGER OUT OF HER NOSE WITH A BLACKHEAD REMOVER) :L She is so funny and some of the things she says, if someone else said them i would go 'SAY WHUT BITCH?' but if it was XiaXiu I would just be like, ' hahahah,oh yooou'

-----------------------<-- this is a scene break, because i am a random writer-->---------------------------

Its been quite a while since my last blog post, I intended to blog more, but blog posts take aggees. I envy all those bloggers who can blog in like 1 hour.
But even so, I enjoy nattering about my life and mini adventures and doing this improves my grammar so i guess the time it takes is worth it :)

• So first thing to say is that I BOUGHT A BAG...from Primark. So in terms of durability its quite bad. Its already started failing actually. BUT ITS SO PRETTY.

See! So vintage like. The daisy is there for that added special touch Xp
Prettifulness: 10/10
Durability: 5/10
Things to look out for:

• Before buying the bag look inside it for glue marks.
• look at the shoulder trap. the strap has holes lined up it so you can adjust the length. but i've found that because the 'leather' is flimsy it will stretch and the metal with tear the leather.
• This bag is sooo not for books.

So altogether this bag is pretty good. I would say it was just a casual shopping bag for purse/phone/drink/ your essentials really.

--------------------------Waheheheheh----------------------------------------hohoho---------------------

Ooh, so on May 6th I went to a special event called JAMforJAPAN. . . (few, I accidentally pressed the back button and thought I lost my whole entry. but blogspot had saved it for me haha. THANKYOU! )
JAMforJAPAN was a special music event held at the OrangeBox to raise money for the Japan cause.
It was really fun! We were dancing and jamming and shiz like that :L but then. . CAME THE MOSH PIT
It was crazy, suddenly all these people were pushing eachother and flailing about :L there was this one girl who was doing some kinda 60s style move with her arms and looked to be trying to hit other people : /
