Ice ice baby... Vanilla Ice

Saturday night, as planned earlier, susan and i met up for a "clubbing night" but we didnt go clubbing.. we were too tired.. adn just not up for clubbing... so we went to the...


teng teng teng..


ABSOLUT ICE BAR in roppongi...





details: entrance fee 3500 yen for 45minutes - inclusive of coat, gloves and one free drink, room temperature -5 degrees, ice was imported from sweden (?), the owner of this bar is the same as the owner of the ice hotel in sweden...








makes you wanna go...


ooooooooooohhhh~~~~


we asked the bartender to make our drinks extra extra strong.. and because my drink(the right: Absolut Celebration) was already strong to begin with... ummm ummm it was strong...





little silver riding hood...

our stay there was fun... while at first it was cozy with just the both of us and two other gaijins... they soon left and were replaced by a bunch of LOUD and ANNOYING gaijin... damn... one of them was like saying a REALLY REALLY LAME joke... "i need more ice in my drink" -- wtf!??! okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy


it was worse when he thought it was funny, and when no one laughed he was checking around to see if anyone caught the joke...and then repeating the joke.. WHAT A LOSER!!!!!!!!

**********************************************************************


besides the icebar, it was snowing outside.. it was pretty.... but i still maintain my stand.. its pretty to look at from the inside... snow falling on you feels exactly the same like rain.. the only time i have fun is when im playing with it!! and walking on snow is dangerous! i slipped so much because i was wearing my fake ugg boots, which had NON-existant grip


woohoots... i made my very first snow angel, pathetic tiny snowman, threw a few snowballs on inanimate objects, and susan.. NYEHEHEHEH~






snowmen are hard to make.. they make it look so easy to make on tv... i was like to pat or to roll? ehh?? hantam saja!

susan's tower of snow

Sunday, we went to HARAJUKU!! once again i missed the chance to take pictures of the cosplayer... but again, its really hard to do so, i mean like im torn in between entering the shops, and going to the bridge to snap shots... anywho it was winter anyway.. final winter sales VS cosplayers in their winter coats... i think its not a hard decision really.. HAHAHA

not surprisingly, we chose shopping...



and while i wanted to curb my shopping habits/WINDOW shop... i obviously didnt... but i must OBJECT!!! i didnt buy any clothes/bags/shoes...


only accessories... and THAT DOES NOT COUNT!!!









pretty audi building...





crepes!!! yummy... tsukuba crepes are dissapointing... but i still prefer Osaka's shinsaibashi's crepes... more value for money!!!


***********************************************************************

the merchandise - ACCESSORIES MOSTLY



both designer gloves... courreges.. ON SALE!! it was crazy i didnt know which one to choose! i liked the pink ones because it was soooo CANDY POP! i want to be in retro 60s again.. and the pink ones just spoke to me.... and the yellow.. well.. i might be late in the yellow is "in" in Runway fashion times... because it was sooo summer last year, but to me.. i think yellow is the NEW HOT PINK!!!

i want a yellow something! i need a yellow something!! i saw the GAP coat, the yellow was SOOO pretty, however the cutting of the coat is not flatering on most persons unless you are a model or mannequin.. BITCHES! i want a yellow dress!







wide headbands... purely of gossip girl influence... although i wanted either a patented white one and/or a checkered pattern one.. to emphasize the preppy look... but these are adorable too!!!


velvet scarf, it had a 70% off yeay!

clutch bag... evening wear!



LOL!!! ummm... i know that this is completely unnecessary, and really not practical... but it was 70% off, from 1100yen.. to i dont know.. but you never know right? i might have a masquerade ball in the near future!




white belt for 1000yen! cheap!

ah crap forgot to take a picture of my new tights!! hahaha i bought 3 pairs of coloured tights... yellow, blue purple.. and a pair of vivienne westwood high socks... but oh wells.. you get the idea..

thats all of the merchandise.. hahaha i want a yellow dress! i want white ankle boots! i want hot pink heels! ahhhh so much to want.. i want SPRING!!!

loves,

i wish.. wish...

everytime i go to harajuku, it always seem to rain on me.. literally and emotionally...

I went on a Sunday. Expecting to see the ever so famed cos-players, goth-lolis.. but no.. it was raining. therefore the show shall NOT go on? even if they were there.. it wouldnt be fun.. cos raindrops keep falling on my head...

it was even more depressing as we went shopping, i couldnt find anything to flatter my figure.. drat you japan! i mean its not like i couldnt wear the clothes... i could wear them.. and make myself look even more pregnant.. why is the fashion now flowy shirts?!?!? with huge-ass ribbons drawn across the chest region!? probably because im in japan.. clothes just need to make Japanese girls look like they ACTUALLY have breasts.. damn it all~!!!!

so depressed me walked along harajuku, and suddenly.. TOPSHOP!!! international brand = international sizes.. i was so estastic that when i found a little skirt, i didnt even consider the price, and just bought it~! when i found out that it was 10000yen.. i taken aback, but it was the first merchandise of the day~! hell man.. im getting it~!

next store.. i saw a cuute outfit... i wanted it but then not so sure about me wearing it.. and then a lady helped me.. she said it'll be fine.. and she helped me find matching outfits.. yeay~! i bought a whole outfit from that store.. so.. little by little i was happy again...

but then there wqas this ONE skirt - ONE skirt~! it was LOVELYYYYYYY too pretty to be true... i was classy.. it was sooo beautiful... but of course that came along with a price... yen 17000(gasp!) of course i didnt buy it.. i wish i did.. but im broke.. how shall i describe it.. it felt very "french"? white base with red flower patterns, and it was the flow-y types with a red sash acting as a belt.. and underneath the skirt, we can see hints of red ruffles coming out...length: up to knees (also available in blue)

but all in all clothes shopping in japan is just depressing if you arent a stick.. as i walked around, i see a few "chubby" japanese girls, and i wonder... where the hell do you get your clothes and how the hell do you manage to pull of the "japanese look"?!?!?!? i started reading blogs of "fat" girls online... seeing plus size fashion blogs.. yeah i was that depressed.. was very tempted to buy clothes online wondering if i was a size 12 or size 14.. but then some where in the middle i realised that i was neither.. and yeah i'm just turning anorexic again.. but its alright, im not particularly starving myself, hell if any, im just eating good food...

im so full of hate and anger towards my body right now... if only if only....

i wish i was fairer.. so i can wear clothes of any colour i want, so i can wear huge ass sunglasses with white frames... and maybe i can dye my hair brown

i wish i was not so blessed across the chest and the ass, so i can wear tubes, mini-skirts, jeans...

i wish i looked like ebi-chan




Ketsumeishi's Mata kimi ni aeru


Now thats HAWTTT..

sighh..


sorry for all the negativity here.. but yeah.. everyone gets their lows sometimes...


to make it up to y'all



dinner in harajuku...
