Prizes from Ly's Bad Gal Giveaway!

Eep!!!

This is the first time I have EVER won a giveaway omg. And I am especially excited because I super love the prizes!

Funny story actually: I often get packages from buying online and whatnot, but this time it was a written package, and from Europe. My mom was really freaked out that I receive packages from friends on the net QAQ

She's one of those paranoid Asian moms, so I understand where she's coming from but omg, I wouldn't give out my address to some suspicious creepy person. She doesn't understand the whole blogging community and culture online, and I don't think she could (or will want to) anyway so I'm just going to avoid the topic and get packages sent to uni or something in the future ><


Now, onto my prizes!

My first pack of Diamond lashes! Haven't had the chance to try these yet but I love them! <3

TBH I am always a little skeptical of the worth of these Japanese brand lashes that are hella expensive and don't have many pairs in a pack, but the design really is quite nice! QAQ

I think bottom lashes are better value for investment, since top lashes can be stacked to produce different looks but bottom lashes can't really be stacked and Ebay doesn't have that many nice designs of lower lashes (and who has time to snip sections of lashes together? nopeeeee).

Black Diamond's first CD (I think?)

Legitimately like track 3 and 4 more than 1 & 2. (3 & 4 are without their singing). The amount of autotune is painful, but the composition is really energetic ne~

XIII mesh cap! (Worn in my outfit at the bottom of this post)

First item from XIII. I don't wear much ora ora so this is a brand I don't really follow, but this cap is really nice for kuro/oraora styles! *v*

Don't know what happened with my camera here. These are the fluffy legwarmers!

The bototm half shows the color more accurately I think. They're not very yellow at all! My camera must have capture mid-exposure-adjustment? I don't know how my camera works at all QAQ

Gold cross ring!

I kept putting this ring the wrong way. One ring hole is bigger than the other and I kept getting it stuck on my hand LOL

And a lovely letter from Ly <3

Honestly I think my favourite part of receiving parcels (that I didn't buy) are the letters I get! So sweet :')


Thank you so much Ly for hosting this giveaway! Check our her blog for rokku/onee/tsuyome styles!

Pulled from my Tumblr

Oh yes, follow my Tumblr for high quality images of gyaru and lolita styles with the occasional rare PC text reblog! I don't spam that much, but I definitely update there and on Twitter more than my Instagram :D

Dinner catch-up with my girls~

Tonight I went across town (Ellerslie -> Forrest Hill) which is like an hour drive, to have dinner with my high school friends!


The host today held a dinner event before, but i missed that one. I think I was in Canada? Anyway, everyone said her cooking is AH-MAZING so we kept pestering her to hold another eveent, and today it finally happened!!


There were several friends I haven't seen in many months, and some that I spent New Years eve playing drinking games with. We rarely get to meet up during the study semester since everyone is doing different degrees, and are super busy *ahem procrastinating* so we try to make the most of summer vacation!


Our lovely host made many Taiwanese based dishes, but she put a spin on everything and it was super nice! I got to deep fry the chicken, and the parsley, garlic, and apparently ginger too (I don't eat ginger) were so good! We agreed that next time, half the deep frying will be of parsley LOL

The Feast

We only had 9 people, but there was so much food!! Thankfully there wasn't much left over, though our host is now sorted for sugary drinks and snacks for the next fortnight hehe~ (she told us not to bring food, so we ended up having a huge variety of drinks to choose from)

We also had really nice 'tofu tiramisu' omg. First time in my life I felt healthy eating a dessert!! It was made with the soft jelly tofu blended instead of using mascarpone, and it tasted really good!! It is of course a tiny bit firmer than a cheese/egg mix, but the flavour and texture (on the most part) were not compromised in the least. I will hopefully be half-trying it this weekend as I still have a sachet of mascarpone in the fridge ><;


This weekend, I aim to upload at least 1 review on Confetti, which of course I will link from here too. If I slack off now I bet there will be nothing done when uni starts! Not to mention... I miss putting on gyaru makeup!

Also, extra goal this year:

Up my sujimori game!
