Haven't written anything for a while...

Yeah, well, I simply haven't thought of anything to say...

And now it feels like a million things happened, just because of that. I know, I suck, I should really try to get better at blogging!
However, here's a picture of my new shoe, which doesn't look so new anymore, but mine are in black;
3 layers of socks + these shoes, which are pretty warm, and my toes are still like little bits of ice. Then it's cold :(

And I'm nervous for Wednesday, when I'm supposed to take the 6 kyu-belt together with the other girl who practices Taido, too. I'm so nervous!

I registrated myself at the MAD LM.C-fourm, www.madlmc.proboards.com, if you're interested (^__^)
And soemthing weird happened to my keyboard; even if I just push the key once, I always get 2 ¨¨, ^^, ~~ & ´´, maybe more that I haven't noticed yet. It annoys me!
And today I downloaded Google Chrome. Don't know what I think about it, because it's a little bit like Word, trying to correct me whenever I spell something "wrong", with no respect for the fact that it might be a smiley or in another language!

And I'm going to have a baby cousin. My aunt, the one who said she never wanted children, told us the day before yesterday. Mum ran into my room, squealing and jumping up and down as she spoke to my grandma on the phone. Pretty fun to see, actually...

And some very not needed info about my inbox;
I sent my wishlist to my grandfather (and why does that sound so old?), using the phrase "moshi moshi" to say hello, and he replied with "sushi, sushi"... XD

But I don't think I can come up with anymore important or unimportant info now... So, じゃね!

Lolita 23q

Yesterday, I was looking through a few of my documents, among those a list of bands I like. Lolita 23q was on that list, but I realized that I listened to them like once... So I looked up a few songs yesterday! And they're awesome <3
Here is their newest PV, Ginga no Tsubasa -GALACTIC WING-



Otherwise, there's not much happening. Seems like I'm gonna get sick again :( And mum bought me a pair of shoes! Going to put up a photo as soon as possible (^__^)

My Day(s)

Yesterday, I was barely on the computer at all.
This was because of school, going home, eating, making pearl plates (directly translated from Swedish, I'll check up the correct word for it soon ^_^), showering for forever and ironing 8'DD Or, well, I was on the computer... For, like, 43 minutes - a new record!!! Though, then I was checking if someone updated their fanfic, and I uploaded one (okay, maybe two...) pictures on KoteKote. And I tried to get my bracelet done, but I gave up when I tried to tie it together for the third time, and dropped the pearls for the third time :(

Today I wore my Lolita dress + the coat to school. I got two comments (from teachers o.o) about my coat, both said that it was "a real princess-coat." And then I felt accomplished, lol. A lot of people stared, though I don't really mind when they do - they give me a good laugh, reminding me about owls.

And I feel really creative, but haven't got any materials D8 I really want to learn how to sew, too. Any tips on how to self-learn?
I was thinking about making these cute hairbows as soon as possible, since they seem pretty easy and doesn't seem to crave so much material.

Sorry I can't upload any pics on my outfit for today, I couldn't get anyone to photograph me :( But I will try to make that a daily habit for my friends, or my mum, at least until I can afford a decent camera (^__^)

Anyway, I actually cleaned my room today, yay~! And, omg, I can see myself in the mirror again! Now what is left is the bag with clothes I'm going to sell... *sigh* I need to iron them, and put them up on Tradera (the Swedish version of ebay).
And tomorrow it's school again. Been sick since Wednesday, so it's going to be pretty nice, believe it or not! Except for the P.E, I still don't like those, lol :P And on Tuesday, when we don't have P.E or any other tricky classes, I'm going to wear my Lolita dress to school, for the first time! Will be interesting to see what they say, hehe... (^__^)

Oh, and if you're like me, wanting to do some DIY-projects, but don't know how, here are some tutorials for you! Differs a lot in difficulty, I belive I'll be making some of those soon (^__^) But I need money for material...
Oh, well, it's Christmas soon, ne?
