So some of you may have seen my previous post about how I'm just not as eager to wear lolita out and about anymore. I still love the style, but it just isn't fitting with this time of my life anymore and frankly I could use the money for a gazillion other purposes. So as I'm getting going with this new idea, I'm thinking about selling some of my sweet stuff to test the waters. I figured I'd see if anyone on my f-list wanted first dibs on a few things I'm thinking about letting go first.
My list of things I'm thinking of putting up initially~
Pink SS Tea Party shoes size L
Black & white AP replica purse
AP blue cosmetics skirt
AP black macaron jsk
AP pink twinkle mermaid skirt
AP white & pink pouchette
AP black & white ballerina socks
Baby white tank top
Meta pink sailor zip up sweatshirt
Meta black skirt
Meta pink & white striped dot socks
Any interest?

Ok, I went and got my hair dyed today because my roots were showing like nobody's business. I went to a new place, because I had a half off coupon, and when I got there I sat down and told her what color I wanted. I had a picture of some random chick, (http://z.about.com/d/beauty/1/0/M/v/ma rcia_cross_red_hair.jpg) and I pointed out which swatch I wanted. She tried talking me into this darker color that was had a bit more gold in it (so she said, I couldn't see it), but I really emphasized that I wanted a brighter color. So she went in the back and started mixing colors. She brought it out, we made small talk, and started putting it on. Once it was on she told me that OH HO she went with the darker color. She told me that my hair was too dark to make it the color I really wanted, and that this seemed dark but would wash out to a lighter red in a day or too.
Here's what I got ( under the cut to save your FP )

So I had a bundle in my paypal left over from selling a couple of things, and I was aching to spend it. I was pleased as punch when I finally got my twinkle mermaid skirt, but OH NO I had nothing to wear with it. That wasn't too bad, I still had a bunch left over so I could get myself a cute top, some shoes, maybe a bow or two.
But then I went to Yahoo Japan.
And then Angelic Pretty had a sale.

Ok, I don't know if many people on here know this, but I'm pretty colorblind. This presents a problem when trying to coordinate colors.
I also suck at visualizing completed outfits.
Which is why I need YOUR help!!
( Which of the following cutsews would look best with this skirt? )

And the Chicago group will be going to Six Flags on my Birthday!

I want to submit a short story to see if I'm totally kidding myself about writing fiction, but you can't submit anything for two days.
Its very frustrating.
I want other anonymous internet drones to evaluate my mad skills.

What is yours??
I was totally thinking of this last night while watching the Little Mermaid and the three and a half hours of bonus materials.
Mine would have to be working for Disney in their legal department. God knows they have to have a million lawyers keeping all the fake Disney World's from opening up and all the fake Mickey crap out of third world countries. I imagine getting free passes to all the Disney parks, and getting to travel around the world to the Disney sites and prospective Disney sites.
It'd be freaking awesome.
Share yours please :D

I was going to ask my mother, but she's pretty useless when it comes to 'your lolita clothes' so I figured I would ask you guys first!!
I'm between a couple of possibilities~~

A whole bunch of people responded to the first post, and then the second post way less people responded. Everyone's all getting ready for the Strawberry Festival instead...
I wanted to go to the Strawberry Festival, but I don't get off work until 2. So then by the time I can get home and change, and then get to the festival it would be like 4:30 or 5:00, so there's no point in me going.
I just want people to show up for Swedish Days too!! Don't forget to come!!

I went out with a friend today and we stopped by Petland. I know, I think they're the root of all evil too, those poor puppies!!
But I feel in love with a kitty. She's a desert lynx, like this but with darker color and really almond shaped eyes. Her fur was like nothing I've ever felt; soft and fluffy like an undercoat with a leopard spotted pattern, and a cute little bobbed tail.

I lost my beloved cat to cancer a while ago, he had to get put down because he was so sick. I still get really sad and start to cry when I think about him, but at the same time I really miss having a cat in the house. I don't want to feel like I'm replacing him, but there's just something about cats that my dog can't help with.
My mother thinks I'm just trying to replace him though, and is adamant about never getting a cat again. I guess it wouldn't be so bad, but lately she's really been taking my dog, Sassy, away from me. Not intentionally, of course, but like when we sit on the couch she'll grab Sassy from me, and tonight she wanted Sassy to sleep with her instead. We've already started fighting about who will take her when I move out... and I know I can't live without an animal. A cat would be best once I move (I'll be going to law school full time, and cats are lower maintenance) but I don't want to wait and get a kitten then. I'd rather get a kitten in the next year or two so its an adult by the time it'll be left alone most often.
Then I also feel bad about buying a cat when so many need good homes, but my old cat was a rare breed (Irish Jumping Cat) and was really friendly and personable. I don't think I would do well with a standoff-ish cat, like so many normal domestic cats are...
That lynx was gorgeous.
I want a cat again.

So I really want to buy the Baby Ice Cream JSK, someone PM'd me about it over a week ago and it was a pretty good deal. Now I've messaged her three times and no response. I really want to get it so I can start buying other things (I want an AP hoodie and maybe some pink tea parties) and I want to wear it to Swedish Days...
What do you think? Its been almost two weeks, enough time for me to tell her sorry and post a WTB and look for another seller or should I wait a bit more??
I really want it XD

Do we really?? This is my baby, Sassy. But seriously, I've been arguing about whether or not I look like her, what do you think?
Bangs were put up for relaxing purposes ;D
Be honest!
Edit: So I totally just watched a childbirth video for no particular reason. It was horrifying. I'm really giving thoughts to adopting...

Three A's and a B+!!
I'm really pleased, because I had some pretty ass-kicking classes this semester. The B+ was for my Managerial Accounting class, at which I totally sucked. I'm still not sure how I managed to pull a B out of that class... accounting is like my weakest subject that I've found, and I had the teacher from hell... somehow I still got a low A on my final despite taking it after being awake for 23 hours... not to mention I totally BS'd on a couple parts that I had NO FREAKING CLUE ON, whoo hoo!!
My parents are really proud, and mom specifically said it was cause for celebration (I'm not sure why they're so excited, I've never gotten below a B+ in my life...) but still I'm gonna try and wrangle a lucky pack out of them tonight ;D
SCHOOLS OUT FOR SUMMER
I'm gonna go play DS on the back porch while playing the Beastie Boys at a horrible level just to irritate the neighbors. Life is good.

I just realized that I have done everything today but study for my accounting final, which takes place tomorrow morning at 7:30 fucking a.m.
I slept in, got my dress from Singapore, read a book, had lunch, watched two episodes of a Baby story, posted to got_lolita, checked out the sales comm, checked my e-mail, checked my grades, checked my friends page, checked Deviant Art, checked my friends page AGAIN, replied to comments on my post on got_lolita, took the dog for a walk, changed clothes, looked at MBok, checked my friends page again, and started writing this list.
I'm gonna fail that test if I don't start studying soon...
I have my first day at work in two hours too...
And I have almost $400 in my paypal that's burning a hole in my proverbial pocket.
I'm gonna go check my friend's page.

I'm getting paid $1000 this summer for spending three weeks helping foreign college kids learn english. Seriously. Some Japanese, some Chinese, and a few eastern European too. I have to get to school at noon, and then eat lunch with them. After lunch, I spend two or three hours going over their english lessons and playing games to help them remember english. After that, I can go home, or stay and hang out with them some more. Wednesdays we spend all day at a field trip (my expenses are paid).
Basically I am being hired to talk about America in English and make friends for three weeks. I'm so excited!!!!!!
My dress from Singapore still isn't here though, getting worried.
Oh well, I got the job!!!!!

So last night I had a nightmare so bad I woke up sweating and out of breath.
And then I laughed at myself, because my night terrors are so pathetic.
I showed up to a meet-up looking absolutely gorgeous; perfect hair, perfect make-up, perfect coordination. Perfect except for my petti died on the way over, and I had to bury it (there was a graveyard for clothes that had been worn out). I arrived at the meet-up and everybody started laughing at me because I had ABSOLUTELY NO POOF. Then everybody started chasing me out of the group because I had no petticoat. I ran and ran and ran because if anybody caught me, they would take my clothing.
Then I woke up humming "What if God was one of us?"
I need to stop looking at EGL right before I go to bed...
