PMX 2011

well this year's PMX was a hell of a lot better than last year's. very smart move on their part to bring it back to the LAX Hilton.

we didn't do much. there honestly wasn't much to do unless you're hardcore into anime/karaoke/buying shit. or unless you like the band, D, who performed. i've heard of them plenty of times and seen them in nearly all the magazines i've looked through. i never really bothered to listen to them though. i'm only assuming here, but i can't get into hard, metal-sounding rock. i'm more into singing than screaming. which is the reason why i can't follow dir en grey anymore. anyways, they sure had devoted fans, lining up hours before for the concert, and after for autographs. i saw them when they came out for autographs and boy are they pretty. even after a sweaty concert their curly, hairsprayed hair and caked on makeup look good.

me and my friends just kinda walked around, took a bunch of pictures and went to the dance on night 2. here are a bunch of pictures (of mostly me...what?? i didn't take any pictures of the con) well, enjoy!

hello blogger

and just like that i have a full blog on blogger/blogspot.

i just imported/exported and edited as much as i could my posts from typepad to here. so ignore it if some old posts are a little wonky. the entries actually started at Vox, which got shut down and everything automatically transferred to Typepad, which is what i've been using. i tried to start on Tumblr but then i realized it isn't really meant for actual blog entries. so since i had an account here already, i spruced up my page and voila!

see you around.

class of 2003

i was looking through old pictures to find some from a particular event, but found something even better.

look at this. we are all in the second grade (well, the majority of us. there were some 3rd graders) and just completed our First Communion.

and this was right after our graduation ceremony (in the day, for the students). we all went to the south bay galleria mall and took these pictures. we thought we were hot shit, walking around in our flowy blue gowns, because we just graduated. FROM 8TH GRADE. god, it's so embarassing to think about sometimes. i look at 8th graders now and they look like children! ugh xD

i'd post one of the most recent group shot taken in august during a last minute and impromtu reunion, but the girl whose camera it's on swears she doesn't know how to upload pictures to facebook. i'll edit this post and add it if she ever does though. i want to show the progression of everyone.

EDIT: my friend FINALLY posted the pictures!!! it only took about a year, right? =P (not really) here they are...

 that was a fun night.

btw, this is my elementary school class. 8th grade class of 2003. i always find it odd when people are so shocked that i'm still friends with my elementary school classmates. i guess it's different for public school kids. but the majority of us traveled from classroom to classroom for 8 years together. ♥

finally feels like fall

today it's raining and i'm wearing a scarf! so i didn't write for two months. i'm not surprised, and you shouldn't be either. =P

i can't even begin to try and catch up on everything that's happened...went through some less-than-happy stuff, but things got worked out and everything's good again. decided at some point that me and my mom are going to japan for new year's. did some unnecessary shopping ^^; and had a lame halloween >=[

i wish i would update this more. i'm lazy enough with actually WRITING in my journal, if i can't take 10-15 minutes to TYPE something...that's a whole new level of laziness. but i think i already knew that. on to the entry!


right now i'm just procrastinating from work. so, what's new...oh! i've been really into disney again for some reason. i found the mousewait app and the lounge so i've been reading that everyday. i bought two sweatshirts from forever21, one with Mickey that says "Tokyo" in red glitter across the top, and another with a vintage-looking screen print of Aladdin. and because of my recent renewed obsession with disney, i planned a disney day with my friends and there were about 12-13 of us traveling around the park. it was during october so i want to do it again during christmas time.
i've also been wanting to go to disneyland with new people. i love my friends and i have fun when i go with them, but it's always a new kind of fun when you go with new people. i don't care if they have passes or if they haven't gone in years. although going with someone who has never been/hasn't been in years is fun because it's like going with a little kid and everything seems new to me too.

here's the ultimate group picture from our day.

okay, so i guess i better get back to work. until next time!
