My Swedish fairytale: Day 3 - Seifuku girls

The second day of Närcon was a lot better than the first one!
Everyone got to work inside the maid café, and I would go as far as to say it went quite well! ^^
We had a Seifuku (japanese sailor school uniform) theme, so everyone looked like cute school girls or boys! Some wore simple regular seifukus, but some of the "older" characters had a bit different uniforms to because they were senpais ^^ hehe 


Anyway, when I opened my eyes that morning, I was quite nervous about how the day would be!
I have my own seifuku that I brought along, and I felt happy as I combined my cute strawberry printed OTK-socks, strawberry pouch and strawberry earrings with my outfit ^^
This day  also, I offcourse wore my twin-tail wig,
but it wasn´t nearly as hot as it had been the other day, thank god! >.< 


We opened the maid café around 10-11-ish if I remember correctly, and people were allready queuing outside by the time we got started 0////0 I was rather startled >v< hehe
I felt my heart tremble as the first quests arrived, and my talented co-workers greeted them and lead them to their tables with such graze and sleek moves... I felt like it was something I could never do! >.< Luckily, I got help from Amanda to look after my first customers, and we did the whole routine together a couple of times until... I was suddenly on my own >.< whaaaah! 
It went so well with Amanda! But when I was on my own... oh my gosh, I felt so nervous, my voice shook, and I almost could´nt even look at the customers, and I felt like crying the whole time ;v;""" 
 I messed up so bad  >.< omg! After my first customers that I had on my own left, I just ran to the kitchen and had to sit down by the fan and stir myself
 to not cry and make a nuisance of myself ;_;... 


Luckily, after that, Amanda helped me some more,
and suddenly it was like it just clicked, and I got the hang of it ;V; weee! ^^
I felt so happy when I could walk with certain steps ahead of my customers, seat them by a table and deliver their menus, take their orders and their correct amount of money/change, and even do my personal spell properly also! ^0^ I loved the spell part ;v; it was so much fun! My spell goes "Oi-chi-ku-nare fuwa fuwa kawaii chuuuuuuu" >0< <3 (or something like that) And it was so much fun when the customers went "aww!" or "omg thats cute" or just "kawaii!" ^U^ hihi 

 

By mid-day I felt like I had really gotten the hang of it! ^^

I will say really, working at a maid-café is so giving! It is a lot of work, and being such a popular café there was always enough to do, but somehow, everyone worked together and we pulled through just fine! ^^ It was like a big, happy and a bit crazy family xD hehe 

 

Emilia and me! ^^ (borrowing/stealing some pictures from Emilia =v= muhahaha)
We are so fabulous = v=


<333

<3

It was divided like this: some maids worked out in the café; tending to customers, taking orders, casting spells etc, while some maids (Emilia amongst them) worked in the kitchen making the food people ordered! When an order was taken, you simply went to the kitchen and told your order out loud, and imidiately, someone would tend to it! Sometimes they even co-operated about the orders, and almost always, the "kitchen-maids" would help carry the food out to the customers,
if it was to much for one maid to carry on their own ;V;! 
It was like a perfect, ticking clockwork * v* I felt so proud being a part of it! ^^


In the maid café, it was also rather fun as they did not only have the cute spells they casted on the food, but all the maids had (as previously mentioned) their own character! So while we walked around, we used our character names and tried to act as our characters around eachother! ^^ The customers could request having photos taken with the maid or butlers they wanted, and they could also play games like Hello Kitty memory, jenga or pick-up sticks! ^^ There was even an offer to sing karaoke or dance! ^^ Also, all the maids had several different songs they knew dances to, so sometimes they would put on a song that the maids would preform in front of the customers >v< <3 I didn´t personally learn any of the dances, but it was a lot of fun watching my talented co-workers swing around with all their intricate moves ~

 

At one point, I was just getting up from a pair of customers that I had just taken the orders from, heading over to the kitchen, when Neko-butler Simon (bakasoseji) bumped into me, telling me he had just come from a table with some customers that had REQUESTED ME O_O
Like.... omg! Someone had acctually requested to meet me??? It was too amazing to be true, in my mind... I imediately blushed like crazy and giggled >v< ehehe... I was so embarrased, I almost could not walk over to the customers with a straight face! ; v; 
After taking their orders also, and casting spells on both of my customers foods, I had to sit down in the kitchen again, just to stir my blushing face really... I was really happy >v< <3 


Still a while later than that, I wanna mention that I saw a bundle of amazingly cute lolitas come into the room! ^^ Amanda was their lucky host, but I couldn´t help but sneek my way over to their table to say hi! It was Agnes (Pandasoppa), Elsa (Sweetsugarlolita), Melva(Yannmmm) and Vivi (Viviekat)! ^^ I knew all of their faces from the internet , but it felt so surreal to acctually see them in real life ;v; I was particulariy star struck over seeing Melva, as she is such a stunningly beautiful lolita, that I admire very much <333 And Elsa was simply the cutest ever,
after I told her who I was she was so nice to me I just felt like hugging her
0 ^0 omg so cute >^< <3333 
I was so lucky as to get pictures with everyone, and everyone had to pass around their phones to get pictures, and we just laughed a lot, and talked for quite a while ^^ 


Here are some of the pictures I got! 
As we are in the picture: Agnes, Melva, Elsa, me and Vivi! ^^ (sorry about the poor quality!)


Me and cutiepie Elsa! <3


Amazing Melva and I! <3

Later on, when it was time for them to leave, I asked them if it was possible for me to see them
again on the convention, and then Melva told me that
there was going  to be a lolita meeting the very next day, on Närcon! ^^ Yaaay! 
I have never ever been to a lolita meetup before, so I felt super duper excited about it! ^^
Offcourse I knew that I was surposed to be working the next day, but I asked Sakura about it, and since she permitted me to go, I happily obliged to the invitation ;v; 
I was simply a shining star the rest of the evening ^^ hehe

 

I was in a good mood, goofing around with the rest of the maids all until closing time.
Then everyone went each to their places. I, Emilia, Amanda, Simon and Sakura and Hannah went to a friend of theirs house to take a shower, and when we had finished that we went and ordered two big pizzas to split for all the maids in the café ;v;! 

When we had done that, there was some kind of big cosplay contest/arrangement on the stage that everyone went to watch, before there was a rave with dj´s and everything until far out in the night ^^" Personally, my first time at a rave! I am really not the kind of person for parties, so it was a very new experience for me XD Emilia said it was veeery "light-core" so appareantly it wasn´t half as wild as what rave parties usually are... but it was certainly enough for me ^^" hehe


We luckily didn´t go to bed too late though... I think we were all tucked safely into bed by, atleast, 2 am ^^ It had been another looong day, but I was so happy, just thinking about the events of the coming day that I didn´t even mind another day having passed ;V; 

Stay updated for my lolita-meet report!
Coming up!


See yah soon!

Pink kick!+ exciting project + music

Dearest readers!

First of all, OMG so many things have happend!!! @_@ 
The first thing I wanna mention is that I have recently been contacted
 about being able to participate in something very exicting!


  
Some days ago, I got contacted by a couple of really nice guys that has a country-wide project going on with teenagers. Initially, it was to cover how different teenagers handeled the time after the 22nd of July incident, but they recently started widening their horizon for other things as well! 
Now they have traveled through the entire country, they have been both in the east, west, north and south, and they told me that this was the last place they´d visit for now. The project is to display teenagers with special interest, and portraying their life to others through a documentary and a book they will publish! A girl in a class above me contacted me about these guys and told me they had talked to her (they knew her from before, I assume) about me! o.o They wanted to do a case about me, because they found my blog and they thought my fashion style and life was so interesting they wanted to have me in the project! @A@ OMG! 

So, as I said, I was contacted a few days ago to meet them and go in a meeting with them( The girl that contacted me about them joined me, since I am so shy >w< ). We talked  about 1 1/2 hour or something, and they questioned me about everything. They were really nice and kind, letting me know all sorts of things they were doing, and even gave me a pamplet and  showed me a movie they had made so I could see how they do their work. What they wanna do, is to talk to me about my life, and follow me for about 5 weeks (I think that was it) to get to know me and to be able to write the story. They also wanna do a documentary thats gonna be about 6-7 min long about my life. They said they would probably be together with me at school sometimes, and at home for dinner or just hanging out doing everyday things. I was to decide for  myself how long their visits would be and how often. They also said I needed to talk to my parents and that they would really like to have a meeting with them to clear things up properly in that sort of manner also :) They were very professional and nice, 
and I am sure they are legit in their job! I were to get back to them in a couple of days (meaning today or tomorrow or monday) to settle more arrangements 
and to settle if I am going to go through with it or not.

AND NOW JUST O____O OMG I can´t belive this is acctually happening to ME! 
This is just crazy! Do you guys REALIZE that this means my life will be PUBLISHED IN A BOOK and made into a documentary @_@ Its so crazy I don´t even... seriously I can´t belive it... I am so nervous and excited and I don´t even know what to feel! If this happens... I just... I am speachless... a part of me reeeeally wants to do it, because it seems so exciting, but I know it will be tiring, they told me that was what most of the teenagers they had worked with had said before, that it was quite tiresome but that they got used to it, and I can very well understand that! I mean like, 5 weeks! It´s not like they will stay with me 24/7, but still! They will need to meet up with me quite often. 
In the interview they asked about all sorts of things, like what I like to do on my freetime (I said I play videogames and draw =v= hehe), and they were especially interested if there was anything going on soon that they can join in on. I told them I will colour my hair lavender soon, and they just LOVED that XD haha... they really wanted to join me on that anyway :p hehe...
On the other side, I kinda don´t wanna do it, because I am afraid how I will react to them being there so often... I am really introverted and people drain me of energy enough as it is in my everyday life... also there is my eating disorder >.> that could very well be a problem as well... I am just afraid my mental health won´t be able to do it >.< eeehhh....

so now I REALLY need to know what you guys think about this! 
SHOULD I DO IT OR NOT???
This is probably something that only comes along once in a lifetime, and there is only a small number of teenagers involved, like... not everyone has the oportunity to do this! But I am seriously afraid of my mental health and my eating disorder... my whole life is very rigid and strict on time schedule...

SHOULD I DO IT OR NOT?


In other news (feels like an anchorman B-3)
I have been in a pink faze again ^^ Ever since I got my seifuku I just love doing cute outfit with loads of pink! So I thought I´d show you guys some recent outfits :)


Last weekend was a reeeally lazy weekend, I only went to a café with my parents and went to watch the tiny protest going on in our little local town against the oil drilling in our area (my district is these days in a big political crisis over this matter), and after that I just played some games and watched a movie 
(if I remember correctly)

This outfit was super lazy, but I like it, so here it is ^^ Pink fuzzy socks and skinny jeans from H&M,  pink sweater from minkyshop, hairband from Lindex :3 Curled my hair also! Terrible lighting due to the rainy weather that day ^^" sorry! 



The next outfit I wore today! I have been in a good/excited/nervous mood all day due to this project thing and the fact that it´s a weekend (because I love weekends  *v*) So once again I wanted to wear something super cute ^0^ I decided on my Seifuku once more, but this time, matched with pink!


Sugary School girl

Seifuku: Bodyline
Socks: Secret Shop
Shoes:Secret Shop
Wig: GothicLolitaWigs
Accessories: Chocomint, gift and Miyamo

 

It has been ages and ages and ages since I wore this wig (or any wig!) so I decided to give it a go!
I really want a lot more wigs! I only own two, this one and my dark brown curly prisila wig... I want a proper lolita twintail wig ;v; and a lot of others! Maybe I should start buying that *takes notes*

I realise the hairties doesn´t go with the outfit, but I wanted something cute in my hair as well,
and I wear my beloved "Kurebayashi" hairties far to seldom =v= I wanna get
some of those ball hair ties with little gumball-looking marbles on them *v*
they are so cute and I love how Cotton Chu looks in them!












The last outfit is also a very simple one, I wanted to try out the sweater my sister
 knitted for me for christmas!  ^^ She is so talented <3
 I got my roots taken! now my hair looks nice again *v*


Spiked Cotton Candy

Sweater: my sister <3
Shorts: BikBok
Tights: H&M
Socks: H&M kids section
Shoes: taobao

I like how this is such a soft outfit with a kitten badge and a sweater in alpaca yarn
 but it has an edge with the black details, like the headband and platforms ^^

It´s a bit to cold to wear it now, but I will definitely wear this when it become warmer!
(also I don´t have makeup in any of these pictures because they are taken on days I´ve been at home only)




Thats the outfit for now, but I also wanted to show you guys some AWSOME music I just found!


I have been a bit bored with my music lately, so I have been a lot on youtube finding new things to listen to, and suddenly I stumbled upon a really cute and cool girl band called

Silent Siren !

They have super duper cute pop, punk electro music that I just adore! Their music kinda reminds me of the band the girls in K-ON! has :)

Please listen to these great songs! They have become favourites of mine,
and I can´t stop listening to them *v*

【PV】ランジェリー / Silent Siren(サイレント サイレン)
Not only is the music adorable, they have the cutest singer in the world
and her haircut is so precious I wanna cry ;v;



 Silent Siren「Sweet Pop!」
 
 

 Silent Siren 2nd Single「stella☆」


I feel like I am going to become such a big fangirl of these adorable  girls *v* They are allready one of my favourites! The band is acctually fairly new, they only started in 2010 ^0^
I will surely keep my eyes open for them onwards, I can´t wait for more of their music! :D
I wanna buy all of their CD´s! >w< iiiih *idols idols*


Since I allready asked my question above I just want to thank you guys for following me! I have got 175 readers now, and it feels just insane! @v@ THANK YOU!! >0< You encourage me to go on blogging! I hope you enjoy reading it onwards!




See you later alligator! <3

*Parent-free adventure*

Good morning to all!

As you might remember, I have been quite alone this weekend/start of the week,
 but now I am happy to announce that my parents have returned! ^^

When they went away, I was just overjoyed over getting to spend some alone time by myself with my cat, but let me tell you, even that isn´t quite as fun after a while >.< Basically, they left really early on Thursday, and came home quite late yesterday (after 9 pm) so it was almost like 6 days! The first three days were fun an jolly, but when Sunday came along, I was starting to get reaaally bored :P And I was really annoyed with taking care of the hens >.< Yeah, I am quite the "girly-girl" about things like that, can´t help but finding it a bit icky :P It´s just that they are pretty large, and you have to go inside their cage to place out their food... and it smells :---------S


Anyway, even though it was quite boring, loads of fun things have happend also ^^
I got to play my Nintendo DS for the first time in ages, acctually progressing in SoulSilver (Pokémon) which I have been stuck on for months =v= heheheee.... 
(I have this bad habit of just leaving a game forevurrr if I fail a couple of times playing it... )

So yesterday, I vacuumed the first floor of our house again, cleaned up a bit in the kitchen and just relaxed until my parents came along :3 I am REALLY proud of this one thing I did though! It might sound like a small thing, but I feel so accomplished none the less x) I managed to sustain the fire in the fireplace that my parents lit the day they left! Yeah thats right! I managed to sustain a fire for five (almost six) whole days :D I think that is pretty impressive x3 hehe...


Well, now I just wanna take a moment to tell you guys how amazing my parents are... 
seriously, they are the best parents ever! Look what they got me from their trip ;____;
Adventure Time comic books (and even the genderbend version also ; A;!!!) 
and KitKat chunkies TTATT

I just screamed with joy and hugged them so so sooo much ;v; <333


I also took a couple of pictures from both comic books to show you just how cute this stuff is ;v;
First one is from the genderbend one, and the second one is from the regular one x3 <333 Love it!
I think I have just become a hopeless fan of these ones as well ;A; Luckily they are to be found on amazon though =v= hihihi.... 


Not only did I get these lovely things yesterday, but my long awaited artbook
 from Namie-kun came along! *0*

It is her second Touhou fan-artbook! ^^ I was "preorderer" nr. 35 (as you might be able to spot on the little sign there ;3 ) And she put in a tiny little extra comic ;___; <3
 
 
She made me a tiny little doodle of Marisa, like I asked for ;A; Namie-Senpai ILUVU OK!!! 

<3

Here are some of my favourite pages:




boooooows *0* 
I don´t take credit for any of these drawings! they are all made by Namie-kun


If you are interested in getting your own copy of this amazing artbook take a look 


I reeeeeeally reccomend it if you like cute, nice art, that makes you feel all giddy and happy inside :3
Namie never stops amazing me and giving me inspiration!
 She is one of my absolute favourite artists on DA ^0^


Other than that, I also have a quick little outfit I wanted to show you guys!
I wanted to try out how I could use my new seifuku in other outfits than only as a set,
 and this is the result this far:
☆Sweet lolita school girl☆

Skirt: Bodyline
Shirt: Bodyline
Shoes: SecretShop
Socks: H&M kids section
Accessories: Bodyline, H&M kids section, 
CuteCanKill and gift

 

I know the hairstyle is kinda boring, but I just wanted to try out something really simple,
 for an everyday cute look ^^ 


Thats it for now! I am so excited about all my new things *v* This will be a good day! ^^
There is still so much left of the vication! I could do anything <3






Do you read comicbooks other than manga?



Thank you for reading, please stay tuned for more kawaii ;P
