Just got this "Manner Tofu" chopsticks practice game. It's so cute! And about as difficult as I expected. The tofu blocks are really smooth and easy to drop. XP
I haven't posted in a little while. I found a cool picture of deer print nails on taobao and wanted to try it myself. I think it turned out alright. ^_^
My first time trying acrylic powder to sculpt bows onto my nails. I need a lot more practice, but I think it still looks kinda cute.
My outfit for the day. Maybe I was pushing it with the shoes, but I like them so much. I made the headband.
Look! A macaron! How completely original. I bet no one's thought of making these out of clay. :) I'm really just excited at my rate of improvement. >.> Also, bear cookies.
Changed my nails today. I wanted to do something that felt more summery. I had a lot of fun with doing the gradient effect.
Went to see Maleficent with the ATL lolitas. We got caught in the theater hallway by people asking if we were part of the movie.
Getting more adventurous with stones. My thumbnail broke over the weekend, but it looks ok with this design.
Left is my first attempt at making clay sweets. Right is my most recent attempt. I'd say it was practice, which is part of it, but learning better techniques while watching tutorials helps a whole lot. Also sometimes less is more.
Just made Popsicles with my new mold. I was really eager to eat it, so I took a bite before I thought to photograph how cute it is...
I added some stickers to my fashion glasses. I was pretending to be decora. Needs work. :P
My outfit for work today. Elaborate wigs are hard to work in so I left it out. I did my favorite Neapolitan ice cream nails though.
Took me a minute, but I actually completed a puffy star hair piece. I had fun using beads from a broken hello kitty bracelet.

I CANT BREATHE
I can't even...
Can I just go ahead and label Block B the kpop Batman villains? They started out as delinquents and upgraded through theft and bank robbery up to kidnapping. Super fun though. I’m hoping they introduce some sort of hero.
Can we stop pretending this isn’t deliberate?
I am not asking for a recast of Shana. Even with the assistance of colorism, it is still very difficult for non-white actresses to obtain major roles. If a white actress can be hired for the role? She will be. So every role cast to an actress of color should be held onto with all its might, for the opportunity may not come again. What I am asking for is the basic acknowledgement that colorism exists, it is in play here, and it is erasing black, Latina, Native, and Asian actresses of darker hues from the canvas. It is telling our daughters and our sisters that their skin tone is unfeminine and undesirable. That we should not be relegated to the back, in brief full-body shots in celluloid to provide contrast to the fairer lead, but that we are so unattractive that we should not be seen at all. That we must be adjusted—lightened—to be of worth. To be beautiful. To be wanted. An actress such as Lupita Nyong’o is held as an exception to the “rule” that women of darker hues are unattractive instead of as one mere example of a new rule—that women of all hues are equally beautiful.
I am not going to support the upcoming Jem and the Holograms film. I am no longer going to support any film or television show where a character once heralded as beautiful—due to and not in spite of her skin tone—has been lightened to make said character “acceptable.” Marketable. Not until at least one character makes it from the second dimension to the third with her melanin levels intact. And Hollywood has amazingly yet to give us that. Not even one character.
We are no longer going to accept the message that we are not wanted here and yet still leave our money on the counter as we make our way out.
We have other options now.
The bag I ordered from taobao finally got here. It's super cute. ^_^ I can't wait to use it with my outfit this Sunday.
