I'm almost done with a mad spam of pins on Pinterest. I hadn't really pinned anything in a while, and I lost a lot of followers for some of my boards! One of my boards used to have 100+ followers, now it's down to about 40~ So sad! If I ever see pictures and things that I like when I'm derping around on the internet, that I think could be pin-worthy, I save them into a folder. That folder had gotten pretty full, so I decided to clean it up a bit! If you're interested in checking out mah thangs, here's the link - http://pinterest.com/wonderholic/
It's mostly just fangirling, but I do pin clothes and stuff that I like, and sometimes just random images that bring me giggles. Feel free to browse and enjoy~
The other day, a package arrived for me. I wasn't expecting it to arrive so soon, so I was stoked! It was my albums, Tales for the Abyss from ACE, and 2PIKO from Piko! Both came with posters! Eeeeeeep! I'm so happy, both albums are fantastic! I particularly recommend Tales for the Abyss. Liek srsly. I probably won't bother doing one of my crappy reviews on it, mostly because I honestly can't find the words to describe it, but also because I am a lazy fuck. All I can say is that it is really, really amazing, and highly worth giving it a good listen. The best listening conditions would be when you're alone, or in a quiet space, and with enough time to listen to it solidly right the way through with no interruptions. I'd highly recommend that you listen to it at least once this way. It gives the best flow/feeling of the album, and then after you can go through and listen to your favourites. As for my favourites, Night of the Knights for sure, but also Abyss (Piano Version) is really stunningly beautiful, Shangri-La is super fun, and Haiiro no Tenshi and NU WORLD are great too. But really, I'm pretty much equal with my feelings on the songs, I think they're all incredible. ACE are such a unique and creative group of guys. They're the kind of guys that I'd just really want to sit down and talk to for hours and hang out with. Please do check them out!
So I've had this blog for two years now, and I am yet to figure out how to put photos or images or videos in my posts. It doesn't help that I'm already technologically impaired and I can't figure out any internet shit to begin with. I really don't understand coding, HTML or any of that. How is it that I'm taking a web design class at school lol? Damn. I'll need to try and find a simple English explanation for how to do it. Laaaaaaa.
I have school tomorrow, so I gotta get ready for sleeeeeeeep. I also need to decide what to wear tomorrow! The weather here is being really whack. It's not particularly cold, it is a little cold, but not hugely. But it's super fucking windy! And it's going to be heavy rain tomorrow! So it'll be humid. Humidity kills straightened hair! I always straighten my hair, otherwise it looks weird as hell. So tomorrow is not going to be a fun day. Oh well, only 8 more days before our two week break. Keep pushing through!

Visual Kei and Pokemon are Japanese traditions!
Huh. Well. It's been a whole year. What's up, blogface?
I think, it would be fair to say, that I am entirely shit at continuing with a blog. Or sticking at anything, for that matter. I always have been. Like, whenever I tried to keep a diary as a kid, because and all my friends said they did, I would always give up after just a few days. Well, what're you gonna do. This has been something of my favourite expression lately. I should find a more motivational one, I think...
So! A whole year. That's a hell of a long time. And I sure have changed. At least, I think I have. What's new with me? What has happened in my life in this past year? I think I'll start with the thing that I think is most important to me. I fell in love with Visual Kei. It started almost exactly a year ago, when I was herp-derping around on the internet. I already liked a few J-Rock artists, but I kept seeing these terms "visual" and "oshare" popping up. So, me being curious George, I looked them up. The first image that I clicked on was a picture of Takeru of SuG. It was a photo from their single 小悪魔Sparkling (Koakuma Sparkling). I don't want to sound like a cliche douchebag here, but it legitimately was love at first sight. I had to know more. I looked into SuG first, completely adored the music, and well, the rest goes from there. SuG are still one of my favourite bands. They will always hold a special place for me. However, about six months ago, I found my absolute favourite band, bias, and obsession. LM.C, with their song PUNKY ❤ HEART, which is still one of my absolute favourites of theirs. I'm not even going to try to put into words how much they mean to me. Because I honestly can't. And I know, it hasn't even been that long, and I do feel like a bit of a noob fan sometimes, but that doesn't matter. I just can't help but love them. Actually, I feel like a pretty noob fan to Visual Kei in general. Sometimes that gets me down. I think, "If only I had found Visual Kei sooner..." But, again. What're you gonna do. I've found it now, and that's what is important.
Oh shit, I made a whole paragraph just on that. Alright, well, I'll try and sum up the rest of what happened. I became even more obsessed with Japan than I already was, becoming extremely interested in Japanese street fashion and subcultures. I became an h.NAOTO fangirl, and its my dream to own three articles of clothing of his, at least. I bought a whole bunch of manga. I also bought quite a fair amount of anime, including the Naruto complete series box set. I've dyed my hair at least five times, right now it's half bleached and half black (I was trying to do something like Utahiroba Jun from Golden Bomber. It didn't entirely work out, but it's alright). I haven't gained or lost any weight, which I find both pleasing and frustrating. Narwhals. I've been going to see a dermatologist, and now my skin is actually pretty good. I'm now in my last year of high school, and in all honesty, I'm bugging out. I've lost and made friends, but let's not get into all that bullshit. One of my three cats died, which was sad, but she was a bit of a wild cat, and she prefered to spend her time outside away from people, so I feel like I never really got emotionally attached to her. And actually, that's about all the remotely interesting things I can think of. Other than that, I've sort of just been standing back and letting the world go by.
I think I'm done for the day. I honestly don't know what inspired me to write here again. But I do know that I have a hell of a lot of homework to do. I have to read four novels in two weeks, which may not sound like much, but I'm not a very fast reader, and I do have something of a life, i.e. spending all my time fangirling.
Oh, here are some things of mine. I like getting new followers, and, for the most part, I always follow back.
