Feeling slightly better already

Yayy, good news! I think I’m finally getting better after too many days of sneezing and coughing and feeling generally terrible. I feel much more alive already, though I still can’t taste a thing.

Here’s a pic that about sums up my weekend:

Queen, nail clippers, glass nail file and deep blue Chanel nail polish. Yeah, that’s pretty much it for my long awaited time to relax. Mom bought me the nail clippers and glass nail file from a local market, so now I have slighty shorter and hopefully slightly prettier nails than on last Friday. ^__^ I bought myself a pretty glass nail file with Swarowski chrystals on it less than four months ago, but I managed to break it two days after buying it. No need to say I felt stupid.

You know you want to see them, so here’s a photo of my nails:

Yeah, you can laugh at my bad nail polishing/photographing skills now. If it wasn’t for the flash, that polish would look much darker, almost black. In fact, I’ve never seen it as blue as it is in the photo. And I have yet to learn how to live with my slightly shorter nails… And gosh that photo makes my nails look so ugly. X_x The more I look at it the worse it looks. Oh well.

Oh yeah, I had that Queen CD in the upper photo too. I’ve been listening to Queen a lot this weekend. I just love that band! Their music is so variable and fresh in an old-fashioned way. I really like the kind of music that sounds like it was made a few decades back. <3

Tomorrow I’ll give yet another shot for those curlers… But I won’t be sleeping with them in my hair, that’s for sure. I’ll just keep them in my hair for a while in the morning. I have an English test tomorrow, by the way. No, I haven’t read at all yet. I have, however, studied math, and that is a big accomplishment for me. Still have to do a few more exercises and maybe my teacher will let me do the test on Tuesday. ^^’’

Oh, I forgot to tell you about the torturous part of my weekend: watching High School Musical 3 with my sister and her friend. Pure torture indeed. ;;____;; My sister is so in love with Zac Efron. Gah.

Now I’ve gotta go see what my parents are doing downstairs. I think I’m hearing some good music. ^^

I know I should be studying, but… ^^

I’m too addicted to this whole blog thing all of a sudden. :P I have a history test tomorrow and I really should be preparing for that right now… Well, I’ll just save it for later (as I always do ^__^”).

Today I promised myself that I wouldn’t sleep with curlers on any time soon. Why? Because a) I can’t really sleep with them and b) I didn’t actually get the kinds of results I wished for. Here is what my hair looked like yesterday evening:

Well at least it is curly, right? x) The best thing is that I didn’t learn from the first try, I had to sleep with those curlers for a second time, too! Oh my, how I hated myself for that mistake this morning.

I have been so dead today. I think I fell asleep sometime after midnight or so, which means I slept 6 hours at max. Doesn’t really help me getting better. Luckily I survived all three lessons at school, with the help of painkillers and Strepsils. Now I’ve only got to stay awake for 4 more hours.

I’ll just have to call it a night early today. I’ll be watching the tv for an hour (21.00-22.00) so I should take a shower before that. (As if that’s going to happen!) And it would be good if I had already read my history book before taking a shower. :P

By the way, here’s something I’d like to share with you: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5451132. I just discovered Etsy through deviantArt and it seems like a pretty nice site. The person whose shop I just linked to you makes really gorgeous jewelry, I’ll definitely have to buy something from her. And she’s willing to ship the items for free! That’s just awesome. I just love that Dark Angel Pendant, for example, but $100 is a bit too much money for me to spend on one piece of jewelry. Maybe I’ll order a pair of cameo earrings or a cameo necklace because I absolutely adore them. ^^

Today I’ll end my entry with a very random snapshot I took yesterday. Because my stomach and legs look funny. ^^

Totoro.jpg ^^ That has got to be the most flattering picture that has ever been taken of me. >___<’’ I’ll stop this randomness right now. Buh-Bye!

(Btw, I think I used the word yesterday about two times in this entry and on both times I managed to spell it as yestarday. How lame of me. =___=’’)

P.S. I really want to buy the new Singstar Queen for PS2! I can’t sing but that has never stopped me from doing it. And Queen is just pure love. <3

P.P.S. I should do something to my nails…

I want to get well soon *snif*

Guess what? Yeah, I’m sick. Again. I catch at least 4-5 colds in a year nowadays. I have no resistance whatsoever. Blah. I am actually feeling slightly better atm, not as feverish as before. But then again I’ll probably feel worse after a little while.

So this Sunday has been pretty terrible for me. I woke up with a really nasty cough and after that my day has consisted of trying to rest as best as I could. But even laying down in a couch feels horrible when you feel like your every muscle is burning. Okay, I might be exaggerating a little bit, today hasn’t been nearly as bad as that one Monday last autumn when I actually had a fever. I just wish I’ll get better soon, because starting from the next Wednesday I’ll have a bunch of tests at school.

Okay, let’s move on to nicer subjects. (Those first two paragraphs were quite negative, sorry about that. ^^) I’m going to brighten up this blog of mine by adding a couple of photos. Yayy.

So I’ll start with the most important thing. On Friday I got my copy of D’espairsRay’s new CD REDEEMER (and it is the limited edition too!) after only 5 days of waiting. I would have got it on Thursday, but the package had my dad’s name on it and he wasn’t at home, so I didn’t get it from the post office until Friday evening. Well, the main thing is that I got the CD and I like it. ^^ Here is a pic of the opened package:

As you can see, I also got some commercial papers and a D’espairsRay poster. Whee.

And before we move on to some general stuff I have a little something to tell you about yesterday. I had a taiji practice and I finally bought myself a pair of taiji slippers! They look like this:

They are very slippery and I would most likely die if I tried to run up or down our wooden stairs at home. ^^ And for the sake of flippers I’ll have to show you a photo of the slippers I wear at home:

Aren’t they cute and fluffy? ^^ I wear them almost all the time when I’m at home. They are quite warm since they are made of lamb’s wool. I got them as a Christmas present. <3

Okay, just to more pics and then I swear I’m done. So here goes.

That is actually a very bad photo of a dress I’ve made, but that’s not the point here. The point is that I am making a corset and I’m using the same fabric that dress is made of. It’s quite colourful, so I’m a bit worried. But I think it’ll work out alright. I’m actually using the same patterns I used when I made my dress for our school’s ball. I just modified them slightly to be more suitable for a corset.

Lastly, ladies and gentlemen, I give you a photo of me. ^^

Yayy, there you go. So I had my hair cut maybe two weeks ago and decided that I want to have a fringe. I’m not so sure anymore, though. ^^’’ So typical of me to change my mind a thousand times and then regret the decision anyways. I actually wanted to have similar hair as Hizaki (the guitarist of the Japanese band Versailles), but now it looks more like a blonde version of Mana’s hair from the good old Malice Mizer times (but not as cool, obviously). Well, guess I’ll just have to cope with this until my hair grows longer. Maybe I’ll sleep with curlers on tonight and have curly hair tomorrow. ^^

Starting a new blog…

Welcome to my new blog! If you found your way here from my Dreamworld (=if you are Taitti) I want to tell you that I’ll probably be updating that site even more infrequently than before. You’ll always find a link to my newest blog entry on the front page though, and I’ll keep updating other sections of my Dreamworld. Only the activity on the main page will slow down.

I’m going to start this new blog with a short introduction. If you already read the ‘About me’ section you most likely already know the main things about me. I am a dreamer and a bit princess-like girl who likes both romantic and mystic things. I am a bit shy (but I’m trying to grow out of that) and I usually try to be friendly towards other people. I like almost all types of music, from rock to classical, and I usually don’t listen to music because it is of a certain genre but because I happen to like it. That’s why my musical taste is quite variable.

I’m not going to make this a style blog but I think I should tell you a little something about the way I dress and look. Basically my taste in clothes continues the same way as my musical taste, which means that I wear the kinds of clothes I happen to like. Sometimes I’m in a mood to wear something overcute and princess-like and sometimes I just crab the first things I find in my clothes and go with that. My ‘style’ has previously been described as secretary-like (whatever that’s supposed to mean), for example. Sometimes the clothes I wear and the clothes I really like don’t actually match and finding and buying the clothes I like is one thing I’m working on. Other than that, I think I should mention my nails, which I try to keep quite long. I am not very good at styling my nails, but I am trying to learn. The same goes with my hair, too.

Well there you have a little something about me. I think you’ll get to know more from my future posts. Now I’m going to clean up my room, see you later! ^^
