Old Dolls

Today I received some old dolls from a relative.
They're actually pretty cute, not like the creepy dolls I'm used to getting.
One of them, I know, is from Okinawa (おきなわ人形) and I'm pretty sure she's from the late 1940's to the early 1950's from what I could learn online.


Anyways, here are pictures of the dolls~



This one is my favourite, it's a shame it wasn't properly taken care of.
Her hand is missing, I had to glue her hair to her head, she has something sticking out form her stomach (I hid it in the picture) and under her Kimono, one of her legs is broken.


This is the one from Okinawa. If you look at the bottom closely, here in the pic,
you might be able to make out the words (in Japanese) "okinawa ningyou" which means "Okinawa doll". I was told it was made after the war.


I couldn't tell you anything about this one,
other than it looks high enough classed, and it has fairly good condition.


 This is a group shot of them. Is it me, or do the center and left dolls look like
their doing a common, everyday, American hand touch? Like they're saying "what's up dude!?",
haha.


Here's a different angle.


Not sure if they're worth much or not, but they're really cute, I think.
Not that I'd sell them eve if they were worth anything.


Anyways, just thought I'd share that with you.

I'm a classy hooker!

Right now, as I type, I'm at my sisters' house in Kansas.
She was Lady Gaga for halloween, and said I could play around with her wig,
and she also gave me a pair of AE jeans for Christmas (I assume).


So, after she left, I put on my hooker tank-top, new AE jeans, and got into my
sisters make-up. Then I put in my big-blue angel circle lenses, and went-to-town! >:3
Oh, yes. I hooker'd it up, baby!


Or at least, I felt like I did. My friends referred to me as a 'classy hooker' so,
I went with that as the title~~~~ xD


Pics, anyone? Yes, let's :3 As a beginning, I'll show you me without the wig!




Kind of scary, non? I promise I look much better wit concealer on, and such! I just...
Felt like giving you a before picture~ hehe. Also, all these are taken on my DSi, so I'm sorry
if the quality is pure crap, I can't help it, it's all I have right now (I didn't bring my camera charger).


Anywho, continuing on with the pictures~ these are more 'hooker' like:



Don't I look like a Marylin? I feel like Christina Aguilera,
in her show Burlesque, haha! I don't know why, I guess because I
feel like such a show girl! Maybe I should start dancing?


What am I looking at, you ask? Who knows,
maybe I've just seen God?


Oh, my! I remind myself of Lady Gaga in her "Bad Romance" video
with this little photo :)


Classy hookers have hats! Yes, it's true~!
We also all have curly blonde hair && blue eyes~ :D


Okay, that's all I've got with the photos from my DSi~ :)
If you see anything sparkle in the photos, I promise you
I'm not from Twilight.
(Inside joke, sorry people x3)

Anyways, I have a few more pictures of my friend Jenelle and I
doing a chat on webcam, they're all just silly photos, though, haha.


OH HEY LOOK, IT'S JENELLE right here!
I'm in awe of her hair :)❤


Psh, look at us, lookin' like a good time :'D



Check it out, check it out, check it out!

Haha, she lives ages away from me, even by train. But we make it work :3
It's a lot of fun chatting with this chicky right here! :D


Anywho, the make up I used was just concealer, brown eyeshadow, liquid eyeliner,
and glitter, and for my lips, I had a light pink lip liner, dark pink lipstick, and gloss.


Simple, yes? :3

Don't forget the circle lenses~!

www.mycandyeyes.com - Review

Okay, so I just got my new pair of circle lenses.
They're 14.5mm and cost $20.00 per pair.


(memo: All lenses are between $20.00 a pair, and include free shipping within the US. Also comes with a free single lenses keeper.)

What I really loved about this site is that the staff responds quickly to
just about any and all E-mails, and they're the most willingly-helpful staff I've dealt with.
I first E-mailed them after I ordered my lenses, and the link to the tracking number was broken.

They apologized, gave me the tracking number, and then ended their E-mail (like always) with the
usual "feel free to ask any questions". It was very lovely, sine most site moderators just say "thanks" at the end of their E-mail replies to me.

Then, getting impatient waiting for them, about half way through the week of waiting for my lenses, I started to wonder if they'd been shipped or not? So, I E-mailed the staff once more.
They apologized for the delay, and promised to send my lenses out the very next day.

One thing I love about this site (besides their freeshipping), is if you send in your photos, they'll send you a cupon for $5 off your next order (which I have received). But, if you send if a video review (which I'm working on), they'll give you one free pair. Yes, a pair of your choice of lenses, completely free; for a video review.

Moving on,

counting the time from then, it took about half a week to a week; counting the time from when I ordered, it took a week to a week and a half. I'm still amazed at the shipping, it was awesome!
And I was so excited to get my new lenses, of course.

When I received them, they came in two viles with "Rainbow" written on them, and the standard "open here" seal markings on the metal around the caps.

I put them in Aosept for a good 6 hours, let them soak in regular solution for 1 hour,
and BOOM! We have wearable lenses.

Take a look:





I love these lenses, they're my absolute favourite, now!
Despite the way they look in the first and last of the  three photos, they're
more often like the one in the middle, giving me a more natural eye enhancement,
while still giving me the big-green-eyes I'd always have loved to have naturally.

My eyes are particularly small, so being that these are 14.5mm, they fit me much better
than my other lenses that are 14.8mm in size. These are actually so comfortable, to me, that I forgot I was wearing them at one point, and had to check to make sure they were still in my eye.

Long story short,
I adore this site and their lenses, I'll be ordering again A.S.A.P,
so expect to hear from me :)
