Funfun Nails~

During the holidays i had a lot of time on my hands (the homework waited until 2 days before college started) so I decided, being the procastinating monster that i am to spruce up my nails!

Ta daa! starting from the left, I have a Hello Kitty, strawberry, panda, watermelon and random gloomy bear style nail!
The strawberry and panda nail art is from bubzbeauty.
link for Panda and strawberry nails.
The hello kitty nails were from here
unfortunately i've forgotten where i got my watermelon design from, but i just used a reference photo i found on google images.
Tools i used: toothpick, a pen, a collection of random nail varnishs i've collected over the years, most of them being mini accessorize ones! I'd recommend painting one layer, leave to dry, then paint on the(in the case of doing hello kitty nails) expression on top. if you do it while its still wet your nail varnish may leak into eachother and make a unpretty mess!

My other hand! This hand was more random than the other, since i was using my left hand to paint i couldn't do cooler designs.From the left, we have a paw print, random circles, another watermelon, random dots and a cherry, and a koala bear!!
the koala was done by following bubzbeauty's tutorial but using black as the base instead ;)

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu Music Video XD I want an eyeball accessorie now, wahahaha


I hope everyone enjoys their week and see you next time! Also, Happy Birthday Dad!! xxx

I still have to post up that time we went to glastonbury festival 2011, so i remember all the fun things which happened there. Haha, i'll shall this lil titbite though, So i was walking to the portaloos, it being sunday and all, the loos weren't stink free. So i conjured up this excellent plan to stick tissue up my nose so i wouldn't smell anything. N it musta been really comfortable up there cuz i forgot all about it, n walked straight out of those portaloos with confidence. Then these guys saw me n started pointing at me and laughing ( - -) FAIL. i quickly deposited my nose tissues n ran away like a ninja. Teh end. XD XD

3. Panasonic white headphones
These are so cool to look at and wear around your neck! but my only issue is that they leak sound, so if your on transport you can't increase the volume too much or else the people around you would sing along to your music or something haha, i've also been having problems with the sound jack but maybe thats with age?

A Floral Wonderland~

Okay the Title may have been a bit misleading..but anyways, this is my first fashion post! :D Well, kind of. Its technically just what I want to buy at the mo (Phaha)

H&M Floral Print Bohemian Maxi Dress
The first time i saw this dress was on the famous Monoxious blog! I truely love this blog,I think i've been following it since it began in 2009! Their accesories and many black outfits are so stylish and yummy, i especially like their D.I.Y section. I really want to to try and make some sequin tights and bunny ears in the near future!Back to the dress^^

Tadaa! The colours are in nice pastle shades, along with a nice not too over done floral print including Scallop cut!! This would be the perfect summer dress to buy if it weren't sold out in the shops haha. Apparantly the dress is also light weight, so i could get somebody to prance around and spin so i could take motion photos like in the fashion magazines (* *)

Beautiful dress flowing in the wind..aaah~

 
The dress is beautifully portrayed here by the beautiful blogger Barbro Anderson
You can find her Chitopia site here,
(I'm still working out the kinks so hopefully in the future when you want to find the source of an internet photo, all you will need to do is click on the pic)

I've found the dress on ebay, but i'm skeptical about the authenticity of it, but when i find a paying job i'll be sure to buy that dress!!
My newest interest so far is floral art, I just love the colours and that awe-inspiring feeling you get, i could most likely just stare at the art all day, (As i'm writing this entry, i'm coming to terms with my inability to think up better describing words :L I think more intelletual books to read for me!) Here are some of the artworks i've come across + loved.



'Red Flowers' by Paul Cartwright
This is a sort of alternate mysterious demention feel to me, not being able to see the
persons face just addsto that mystery nee!~ and the Obi made out of flowers.:O *heart*
 



'hollyhock' by Kim Hee Kyoung
(* *) I would love to draw like this ne~ The flowers and the dripping paint are so lovely~

by 露鴨
My awe. So beautiful <3
 

 Thank you for reading, please come again :D

Going Blonde..(Ginger)

A few weeks ago, and with a bit of prompting from sammie. I decided to dye my hair Blonde XD Ofc I was fully aware of the chances of it going ginger. I bet you all know where this is going haha, Well then lets get started!!
Here I am, before the dying process :L Georgia and Sammie dyed my hair on that day, so hoots to them :) We decided to dye hair in the bathroom and be as clean as possible, lest hair dye goes on the carpet D:

The outcome!! It came out a Blonde/ginger colour. But alas, It didn't colour the whole of my head!! It randomly appeared in parts of my hair while the rest of my head with a v.dark brown :L Since I had to look presentable to give in a job application the next day, we decided to run to the store to buy a darker hair colour, heh..i forgot my purse. So then we ran all the way back, literally, after i recieved an angry call from my sister to get my toshie back home (it was quite late at night) Since we were all knackered. We decided to leave it for the night, gave my hair a bit of a rest too. haha
Come morning, The gingerness decided to contaminate the top part of my hair (ginger roots!! D;)
You can see Sammie snoozing in the background here XD There wasn't enough time to dye my hair we handed in the application with my ginger, patchy hair pahaha. It was one hell of a walk, I apologize for putting you through that my friends. /; 
We went with a different method this time. Cling film!! To keep all that colour inside my dying locks hahah.
My face says all. (- -) 
Tadaa!! This is the final finished product. Brown hair colour with random light bits dotted all over!! I think i'll just leave it for now and look after my hair. Maybe when i go back to hongkong next year i can dye my hair White Blonde!! 
Thank you for coming with me on my journey through hair dye!! We learnt a lot and know roughly what to do next time :D I think i need to cut my fringe now haha, Xp Maybe I should do it all wonky like Zemotion?

Until next time, Byebye!! x x

Yummy Dessert!!

My subject titles get more random as the year goes by it seems,[Haha].
Its bin a while!My summer has been a little more productive than last year at least, I've started to learn how to drive [Yay!] and I've also passed my exams which is better than I expected![Woo!] My only issue is that i've no idea what to do in the future, apart from the fact that I want to have an active job (- -); I also have no idea what i've supposed to be doing at the moment, what forms to fill, what i have to do in terms of finance, Ucas...I'm so behind its unbelievable.
But I guess on a lighter note,


Oishi!
I had some really yummy caramel pudding the other day! It was so plump and bouncy (><) Delicioux!!!
I'm really loving ipod apps at the moment, they give such cool effects! Such a easier alternative compared to reading the manual to Photoshop[Imagine: 8 foot tall manual.. D:]

I've been watching a lot of anime and japanese dramas recently (So time consuming when my time could be used to something more productived (--). I've been watching:
Ao no Exorcist: So bloody good, its moving,emotional,action packed...My kinda anime ;D..
[Why blogspot..why you have no emotocons D:]
No.6: A really sweet anime, it portrays friendship and strong preserverance! I may have used the wrong word there, heh, I apologize everyone!! But, waiting HOW many years to return a favor?! If only it could be like that in this world. I love the characters so much, so cute!!
Deadman wonderland: Is bloody terrifying, Oh my gosh, its so unpredictable and.s-so much BLOOD. But because it horrified and brought so many emotions to the surface while watching it, It deserves a hard clamp on the shoulder and well derserved..freedom.

The above were not reviews mind. Just my thoughts about them.

Drama wise, i've began watching Hana-kimi again and Ouran high school host club :LIVE ACTION.
Hana-kimi is helarious as always, makes me laugh when i'm feeling down haha.
OR host club copies the anime/manga with all its special effects, and yet it fails to make Tamaki blonde!! and..why is hunny 5ft7?!The whole shrinking into a little boy thing kinda raised an eyebrow, but apart from that its a pretty good watch XD

I have lots to write, about what i've been up to and stuff so stay tuned! Or come back next year XD

I shall leave you all with Michelle Phans new preview to her cosplay tutorial for: Miku Hatsune!! Her makeup would be so tedious for a cosplay but it is on super epic proportions!



Oyasuminasai Minna-san!! Goodnight everyone! Bonsoir mon ami! Buenos Noches!

Thank you for reading, Love, Akikik

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
