I literally refuse to proofread my posts I'm so sorry. Bear with me.
To say that I'm busy would be and understatement and yet I still manage to find myself involved in all kinds of shenanigans EVERY DAY. I have no idea of what is even going on but again, I'm having more fun than I should. Even though lately I feel completely wrecked, my sleep schedule is fucked up beyond repair >_> let's pretend nothing is happening LOLOL. I'll keep blasting music and act normal. Speaking of which, I finally managed to spend some time on the blog layout u.u It's not done yet but I LOOOOVE ITTT!! My friend, Chris, made the music player for me. It’s super cute. I’ve been doing so much stuff I quite literally forgot everything I wanted to talk about in this post. Even the mere thought of responding to texts gives me a headache lately. I can’t stop thinking about the things I have to do, what I WANT to do, chores, work, drawing… sigh. Taking breaks stresses me out even more than anything else, being unproductive is simply impossible if you’re me and I don’t want to waste any time but I feel like if I don’t take a break I’ll DIE. I’m doing everything and feeling like I’m doing nothing. Again. I’m moving so fast I can’t even take a moment to process what is happening. Despite everything, I’m glad I was able to take a few hours for myself this week and even managed to see Giuls. U_U And I remembered to take pics as well.
Ah ah, I wasn't lying. But before I proceed with my life dump and other useless thoughts no one asked for, let me do something I said I'd do in the previous post and completely forgot about: fragrance reviews. Or should I say review to be more precise since it's just one we're talking about lol. Poison Girl by Dior (which shares its name with
one of my favorite songs, too). Everyone who knows me also knows that 1) I'm obsessed with perfumes and know too much about them 2) the ''Poison'' line by Dior is what I graduated in at the ''knowledge of useless things that you'll get the chance to talk about probably once or twice in your life'' department of the hyperfixation college. u.u So let's start.
This is THE almond Scandal Le Parfum wanted to be. I swear. If you hate sweet fragrances, this will give you ten headaches at once. Poison Girl came out in 2016, so it's a modern gourmand fragrance. The name literally says all about it, it's a girly fragrance that's probably targeted towards a younger audience but don't be fooled nor let this knowledge stop you from giving it a chance. I usually hate this kind of fragrances, marketed as some ''mysterious'' elixirs that make you feel empowered and then hit you with a thousand differents sweet notes at once (I'm looking at you, La Nuit Tresor) that could kill you in seconds. This is not the case, thankfully. Seeing how much it costs it's the bare minimum. If it was a song it would probably be
this one. Appreciate my hard work because I had to dig through my whole mental archive to find it since I haven't listened to it in years. Soo.. back to Poison Girl. I loved it, don't know if I'll actually buy it, but I loved it. It surprised me because I read a lot of negative reviews saying it was ''too sweet'' and while it is sweet, I could actually smell all of it's notes during the whole evolution. It's true that it's a ''girly'' fragrance but it's target audience is not teenagers, I can tell you that. It's cheeky, sweet and dries down into a powdery mix of vanilla, almond, cashmere and sandalwood. I'd even dare to say it's a bit ''sexy'' but probably not in the way you'd think it is. It doesnt project that much but I think iot fits the character of this fragrance perfectly, it's not something you'd wanna wear if your intention is to turn heads while walking down the street but it's a flirty & playful fragrance you could wear on a night out or a date if you're looking for compliments. U_U Girls, I recommend this. It's not the kind of gourmand that makes you smell like you worked two overnight shifts at a bakery back to back but if you're a fan or gourmands you'll probably like this. Also, if you want to try a ''dupe'' (it's similar but more floral) try
Olympéa by Rabanne and don't tell anyone I told you this. It's a lot cheaper. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ (<- face of someone who will probably fall victim of Dior and buy Poison Girl just because she wants to add it to her collection)
Back to what I was saying.. I didn't really do anything special this week but I managed to go out and take some pictures. I decided to send a letter to a friend who lives in China so I bought some cute stuff and some cards. Even though we text everyday I still want to make it special to let her know that she means a lot to me even if we won't meet soon ToT handwriting a letter is a lot more special than just sending a simple message, you really show how much you care by taking the time to write it and everything. I'll print out some pictures on my day off, then I can ship it out eheh. These are the things I bought. The birthday cards aren't for her but it doesn't matter LOL.
I also saw a lot of other cute stuff at the store but my mom had to physically stop me from buying ten thousand different things I'll never need. Besides the stuff I need for my letter I also bought a new journal and I LOOVE it. Look at that. I love pandas, they're so cute sigh... And that thing you can barely see right under the journal is a roll on perfume I got for 1
€. It's surprisingly good for it's price and it reminds me of the original ''Classique'' by Jean Paul Gaultier. The one that came out in the 90s I mean. A clean, powdery floral. I use it more than I probably should LOL. I bought it to keep it at hand in my bag in case I forget my perfume thorought the day. U.U I'd definitely buy this again. Moving on... look at these plushies I saw. I'd get one if I had any space left in my room and I hate to say this, but it's time ffor me to say the thruth: I hate plushies. They gather dust like nothing else on this planet and I refuse to wash them frequently. Doing the laundry is a drag already, I’m not planning to wash these biohazards. >.> They're cute tho.
I've been trying out new makeup styles lately but I feel like, in the end, the simple ones are the ones that truly fit me best. Also I need to cut my bangs ASAP before I literally lose my mind. I hate not having bangs, it makes me feel old and boring. I need my whimsy back arghhh!! Also I hate these glasses LOL.
This was pretty much everything to be honest, I don't have a lot to say. I've been rewatching Georide Shore and I have no idea on how I got away with watching it on MTV at 8 years oold without my arents knowing, that's WILD. I need to get into whatever mindset they were in, I swear. Even though I prefer Jershey Shore because Snooki was a style icon. Besides this.. lots of funny things happening but to write them down and make you understand everything, I'd have to document 3 whole years of shenanigans and side quests LOL. At least I'm having fun, I guess..? That's something. I also reached out to my old guitar teacher yesterday and I'm glad I got to talkto him again, it was super nice to reconnect 4 years later. Even though I stopped playing guitar a long time ago, the time we spent playing together still meant a lot to me!! He's a great teacher. Anyways.. I took the magazine pics I promised I'd post but I'll just upload some of them for now, there are too many. I'd have to make a separate post just for them. Let's just say I'm giving you a preview. u.u
I feel like I'm literally the only one left who actually listens to them anymore, LOL. This was on Shoxx vol. 175 which came out in 2007. There are lots of An Café pictures and also a poster. You can find some older scans on archive.org, I think. Anyways... Ari got me this for Christmas and I LOOOVE it so much waaaaa. I loved An Café a lot when I was younger, it was one of the first viual kei bands I discovered and D followed shortly after, but they don't seem to be that popular. This is one of my favorite songs by them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYGowuTsRGw&ab_channel=avex
What about you guys? What are you up to? Is spring treating you well so far? Also, did you know that the astrological new year starts with the spring equinox? It makes a lot more sense than the new year startig in winter. I hope it brings you lot of blessings and that you get a chance to finally rest and recollect yourself. Enjoy the nice weather if you can. Thank you for reading my blog and I hope you also enjoy the new theme. ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧
