A Birthday Post.

Yesterday was my birthday. I actually felt really sick when I woke up but when that happens I take a bath and try to fall asleep right when I get out and IF I can fall asleep I usually feel much better when I wake up. I didn't fall asleep but I felt much better after a couple of hours anyway. The first gift I received in the morning was a drawing from my brother of me with a smiling balloon.

Did I mention my brother is 17? lol He was actually poking fun at the drawings my niece always makes for me but she says it looks nothing like me because in reality  my torso does, in fact, meet the lower half of my body. He also gave me rose though...I've been getting a lot of flowers this week. I love using my toy camera effect on them.

After I felt better I decided to get ready. I wore my cream colored lace dress and my flower headband, I felt very spring-like. Didn't get an outfit pic >_<

My makeup was lighter because I didn't use lower lashes. I'm out of clear lash glue and I don't like using my black glue on lower lashes because it looks like crap unless I'm doing heavy/dark eye makeup. My real lashes, with mascara, are longer than some of my false lower lashes anyway.

Can you guess how old I am? haha We forgot to get candles so I had to use the candles from my sister's 24th birthday, she almost 4 years older than me so they're old and beat up.

My mom apparently still thinks this whole giving me bunnies stuff is funny -_- But she also gave me a $25 Mastercard so that made up for it.

My little brother gave me a Gold Rush movie poster. I love it! It looks perfect opposite of my The Man Who Laughs poster. There's been a blank space on the wall there that has been bothering me for a long time and it was to fill it up.

My youngest brother (the same one who gave me the drawing and rose) gave me a copy of The Elephant Man because he knows how it makes me cry like no other movie can. He also gave me two framed Elephant Man photo cards, one of which is signed by John Hurt.

My mom gave me this card she bought while she was in Seattle, years ago.
"Chris" is the name of the artist who made the card.

I did  start a meal plan 3 days ago but it was my birthday so I was like "I'm gonna eat whatever I want today!" XD I'll get back to eating better today though.

Keepin' it Casual and a bit of blah.

I cut up my Dead Milkmen top.

It's pretty plain but I'm just lacking any new ideas of what to do with the shirts I wanna cut up these days. I was thinking of fringing up the sleeves but the shirt, in it's original form, was just too big to make a ago of it without having to re-sew the pits and shoulder area so the sleeves wouldn't fall down and I lost my white thread. I like it this way too though, it's simple and casual.

First time trying my EOS Candy Brown lenses too.

 I was really  eager to see what these would look like on my eyes. My eyes are like "the color of dead leaves" (as I called it), around the pupil (so like an olivey green/brown). Then fan out into yellowy green and have a very dark blueish rim. So I wanted to see if the lenses were capable of blocking out the darker parts and fade into the yellowy/green to give me more of a hazel brown effect.

 

I found myself missing the bottom half pink hair I had last spring and clipped in some pink extensions to mimic what once was XD.

 I caught the full pink moon last week and got a decent picture of it, using my old olympus (and by that I mean not a bright blur lol). My Olypus isn't as good as my Canon but it has a much better zoom capability than my Canon's 18-55 lens that it came with and is the only one I have so far.

Since the pink moon is not actually pink I also did an edit of the moon to make it look pink.

I remember when I saw my first blue moon.... I was so disappointed it wasn't really blue XD 

A Fairwell Pullover Week.

Well those few days of 70 something degree weather are almost gone until October, so I've been wearing some of my pullovers for probably the last time until fall since a lot of storms are moving in and it'll be cold for a little while longer. I'll most likely transition into amekaji or sweeter looks for Spring and Summer because the Arizona heat in dark clothes is just unbearable. No more wigs for awhile too.

Last Thursday, I wore my Minnie Mouse pullover.

It's kind of amekaji with some touches of rokku in the accessories I guess....more casual than anything else.

Sorry for the super doofy face XD

My makeup's been pissing me off lately. My face has been reacting to all my foundations and bb creams as if I had dry skin and I don't! Once it's on for about an hour or so, it patches and flakes up for some reason >:| I also lost my favorite eyeliner so I've been using a gel liner on my water line...it works alright but I want my eye pencil back!

Today (my brother's birthday), I wore my beloved Bart Simpson pullover with my new Bart Simpson leggings from Rowme.

Derp 'til I die lol

I wore shorts over them because I refuse to wear leggings in lieu of pants. These leggings are absurdly difficult to match though and are baggy around the ankles I just wanted them because....y'know, Bart XD I didn't really have time for a proper outfit shot today so this is it, just to show the leggings.

I feel under-accessorised.

I tried my Vassen Bambi Queen Violet lenses for the first time! These are the first violet lenses I've had since my Nudy Violets about 4 years ago. I like them and think they're a pretty color but I feel like they give my eyes a bit a wandering quality lol but I think it might be because one of my lower lashes flipped up a little bit and I just didn't notice. I'll try them with different makeup on some other time.
