curiosity

Thanks for all the support, everyone. Sadly this is one of those life and death situations where things are going to get worse before they get better.
Anyway, Emilie Autumn KICKS YOUR ASS. I caught her show at the Double Door, which rocked the whole universe, and afterwards she gave out cupcakes. I want to be her new best friend for life.

In the past few days I received some seriously bad news...it is too bad to post here, but if you and I are close you already know what it is.
At first I was very nonchalant, but now I am having a lot of trouble dealing with it.
::sigh::
I also really want to drop my Japanese class this quarter. Our professor told us that...

Oh my fucking god last night was like an episode of Degrassi Junior High.
It started out innocuously enough. Ariel and I went over to a friend's since she is leaving to live in New York with her girlfriend. I enjoyed the company, and we dressed in Lolita and walked around the suburban mall, which was fun. After a stop at the grocery store for...

Since this is my main journal, and I don't want it to be chocked full of Lolita stuff (much of it in Japanese, mind you) I've created a new Lolita journal. It isn't ready yet, though, so I don't have a link to it right now.
School and Japan trip have both kicked me in the ass. Sigh. For TWO DAYS in a row I...

I've always had a problem with the "Lolita" part in Elegant Gothic Lolita, but I suppose that goes with anyone who has actually ever read the Nabokov. Any book which begins in an insane asylum and ends in a prison, and where all the main characters die, shouldn't allow association with something as gorgeous and seemingly innocent as EGL. I think I should write a...

拝啓武本野ばらさん、
一月３日２００６年で御座います。桃子のように、神様が私をロリタに成らせています。只今、服は exquisite lass のシャツ、putumayo と h. nauto blood のスカート, とMAM ヘッドピースを差し上げます。その詰まらない事を封建致します。

Today I am EXHAUSTED.
Yesterday's flight was un-fucking-believable. I'm still reeling. It was the worst flight I have ever had. I sat between two people, and I couldn't stretch out my legs because there was a metal box thingie under the chair in front of me, and I couldn't sleep because there was...

Only about an hour to go until 2006 in Tokyo!!!
Like every Japanese person, I'm watching the music special on NHK. Koda Kumi won what is the Japanese equivalent of a Grammy. SMAP and Morning Musume (even some graduated members, like Ishikawa Rika and Goto Maki) sang that Romanian song "Dragosta Din Tea" together. I am not kidding.
I was going to go to Asakusa...

So yesterday since Ariel was feeling poorly we went out with Julia, and sang karaoke and ate at the karaoke boxes. Ariel didn't sing any songs, but we spent a fun hour and a half eating plates of sausage and singing themes from anime and anything H!P we could think of. After that Ariel went back to the hotel, and I made a trip to...

Oh my god EARTHQUAKE.
I have experienced 1 previous earthquake in Japan, which was like a jolt. I was lying in bed and it felt like someone had picked up my bed and put it back down. It was insane.
But yesterday, we were FREAKED OUT. The hotel actually started to sway back and forth a little, and we looked at each other, like, "Is...

The day before, after hitting Mosburger we stayed home and finished watching Densha Otoko, then watched Shimotsuma Monogatari. Yesterday was the Duel Jewel concert, and prior to the concert we dressed up in our Gothic Lolita finery and strolled around Harajuku. (Gwen Stefani pronunciation: Herajuku. I hate you, Gwen Stefani. You have ruined Japan.)
We had a bite to eat at a very fancy cafe,...
