PASTEL MERMAID DREAM WONDERLAND~ ♥

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! ♥

Omg omg~ I've finally finished my blog banner and background and color scheme!

It took hours and hours to draw them on MS paint!

Srsly, it took me two days to do it and to a few more added touches.

What inspired me to do this theme was Animal Crossing: New Leaf's Mermaid Series house.

I really can't wait for my 3ds XL to play my Animal Crossing: New Leaf already.

You see, I have bought the game already ahead because I was supposed to have it on my birthday.

So shiny in my eyes~ I can't wait to collect mermaid series stuff!

I bought this for myself as a birthday gift / compensation lol

I came across the mermaid series while watching animal crossing game-plays on Youtube and fell inlove with it.

It looks like this outside when you have an average house. It looked sooo adorable too me with the stars and the sea shells and color scheme.

It seemed childish to other people but I really like it, so screw them lol.

All the furniture are really cute too.

It looked like a room that Little Mermaid Ariel's sister Alana would be living in.

Until I saw something like this! Is this Alana's castle or what lol

That's when the idea of creating a pastel mermaid themed Town popped up.

I was initially going to name my Mayor/Character "Lune" and name my town "Lunatics"

So when Rover tells me, "Ah, you're going to the Town of Lunatics?" lol lol that'd be cool

But now I think i want to name my character Alana and my town Atlantica lol.

Which is impossible because I think the title character limit is like eight?

So I'm one letter short. make it Atlantic? Or "アトランティカ"? I don't know.

I still have less than 15 days soooo...



Anyway.

For some reason, I have cancelled the Monster Hunter Goa Magara 3ds XL wanted 

Because apparently 3ds consoles are soooo region locked, you can't even use games from other countries.

For example, you have a Japanese version 3ds xl, you cannot use US version 3ds game cards.

And the Goa Magara XL I wanted is only available in Japanese.

In fact, all the colors/bundles I wanted was only available in Japanese.

Namely..


MINT X WHITE


 MINT X WHITE (TOMODACHI BUNDLE)


PINK X WHITE (ONE PIECE CHOPPER PINK)


BLACK (MONSTER HUNTER 4 BUNDLE GOA MAGARA)

SO DAMN SAD T^T

It was fine for me, only that I am in the Philippines now and shipping game cards from Japan would be damn ton expensive.

Plus I KNOW I won't be able to connect on the internet using Japanese consoles here.

All my DS lite and DSi consoles (all are japanese versions) never worked on wifi connection here.

So damn annoying.

All the more, the best thing I wanted was just.. IMPOSSIBLE.

And it goes by the name of....

ANIMAL CROSSING BUNDLE 'POPTART'


// CREYS....

///CREYS AGAIN...

////CREYS SOME MORE.

It was obvious what I really wanted, like, come one.

Yes, it's available in the US version.

But then, I CAN NOT FIND ONE AT STORES ANYMORE.

And no, I do not buy from Online Stores EVER.

I hate online transactions from people I have never met in person.

I just don't feel comfortable.

Japanese Version? Come one, how to use Animal Crossing properly without wifi, huh?

SO PLEASE, READER.. IF YOU KNOW WHERE TO BUY AN ANIMAL CROSSING 3DS XL IN STORES IN MANILA PLEASE LET ME KNOW. 

GREAT REWARDS AWAIT LMAO ^O^

But, if within 15 days I still don't find one, I'll just probably get something that's available in shops.


This pink one is good for me if all else fails. I just want to play Animal Crossing New Leaf so badly.

By then, I could start my Pastel Mermaid Dream Wonderland and stock up on ferocious amounts of Mermaid Series stuff.

Because that is all I want to do right now so I know I'll be happy and contented with that. ♥




So, now you know what has been going around my head for the whole couple of months and I was really skeptical about posting this.

But since I can't think of anything besides this and school, I figured it was the only bloggable/more positive/not that boring stuff to blog about..

I was really lazy to blog about my birthday though~

I stated on my last post I as going to but nothing much really happened so I found it boring to write about.

Maybe next year on my 18th birthday, huh? ^^

Btw, sorry for the eye sore my new theme might have gave you 'cause it gave me one too lol lol

I hope some of you liked it anyway. I might add some few more things to it depending on my mood lol.

Going to fix my college stuff from tomorrow onwards, so I might not be able to blog as much as I initially planned to.

But yeah, thank you for reading up to here as always.

It really really makes me happy to see every each person's visit add up ^^

So yeah..

Here's some random selca time inspired by CL of 2ne1~ lol whut






And that, my friends, is probably it..

Ok bye now~ Until next time~ ♥

Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Cream in Milky Blonde (Hair Experiment Part 3)

Hello guys! Happy weekend!!

How are you guys?

Sorry for only blogging part 3 now and I apologize for taking so long to update!

It has been a very busy and lazy week followed by LSG Girls' and I's birthdays.

It's tough when you and your friends, especially best friends, celebrate birthdays the next day after another for two weeks!

Plus I had to watermark my photos this time because it's a bit HD-er for the first time.

I didn't want it to be posted on other sites without my credits but I'm also too lazy to put them lol

So, anyway..

After bleaching my hair ombre on my Hair Experiment Part 2, my hair got brassy and orange,

I noticed the individual tips were flying away a bit and I guess that's my fault lol.

So I decided to wait and let it rest a week or two before dyeing my hair again to help it become a bit healthier.

I continued Hair Experiment Part 3 afterwards with the Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Cream in Milky Blonde from my Tony Moly Haul.





For the third and last part (for now) my Hair Experiment, I dyed my hair with this Tony Moly Berry Trendy Hair Color Cream in Milky Blonde shade.

I bought it for 328php, I think. I got it from SM Megamall Branch of Tony Moly Philippines.


It says it contains 1L of colorant in Milky Blonde Shade.


On the back of the box there's Korean instructions of the product.

The product contains berry extracts from reaspberry and mulberry to help protect the hair from further damage from the colorant.



Aw, it got blurred I didn't notice, sorry. T^T

This side of the box contains the instructions in English and the ingredients of the stuff that's in it in English.



This side shows the effects of the dye before and after when applied on hair.

I guess mine's on the "blonde shade" //yessssss dream of getting a patch of blonde on my hair came true lol lol

It seemed to me that it will tame/tone down bright hair.

And the Korean version of the opposite side of the box.



These are the contents of the box when you open it.


MY box contained the instructions manual which is in Korean, the Cream Colorant and the Cream Developer and a plastic with the plastic gloves & cape inside.

Something's wrong, I thought.

MY box didn't contain the Hair Treatment supposed to be inside with the others.

I don't know if I lost it, which I doubt.

It was such a waste but I guess it's ok because luckily I have my own collection of hair treatments.

So check the contents of the box before purchasing, it's not sealed anyway~



Front part of the instructions / warnings manual. Yes, it's only available in Korean.



The back of the paper is a continuation of the contents on the front.

Still, using box colorants are easy enough right?

And I supposed you already know how to color hair on your own if you pick a shade like this.



The 1st one, the cream colorant, and the 2nd one, the creme developer, comes in packages like this.


The cream colorant is sealed in with a thin foil and you're supposed to open it with the pointed thingy on the cap.

The cream developer has a cap on it's tip so it won't spill when you shake and mix the products together.


What you'll need..

1. You Hair Coloring Kit i.e. Your Tony Moly Hair Color Cream

2. Petroleum Jelly, to prevent accidental dye stain on skin.

3. An old shirt, or a longer cape if your hair is long.

4. Wide toothed comb to even out the color,

5. Plastic Wrap / Shower Cap (optional)

Steps..

1. Part your hair into four sections to make application easier and faster.

2. Put Petroleum Jelly on part like the back and front of you ear, your nape and parts of the skin that might get in contact with the dye.

3. Take the gloves and cape inside the box and wear them.

4. Take your hair colorant (1제) and pour it inside the creme developer (2제) bottle.

5. Shake the mixture well to mix the dye evenly.

6. Apply the dye from roots to tips evenly and comb it out.

7. You can put on your shower cap or wrap your hair in plastic wrap so the dye sets in better.

8. Leave on for 20-30 minutes. Or if you have hella thick hair like I do, you can extend up to 40-45 minutes.

9. Wash with lukewarm water and then shampoo and conditioner.

10. Towel dry your hair. (lol)

TIP: If the product starts to be unbearably itch/sting, wash off immediately.

And also, before I used it on my whole head, I tested it out first on a strand of my ombre hair..

Guess what happened? It got dark. So I myself don't advice this dye if you want like light ashy blonde hair.


So, what I originally planned was turn the brassiness down a bit without a toner because that thing is so hard to find here.

And  at first when i noticed the strand went dark, I just put it on the middle part of my hair which i wanted lighter.

But after 30 minutes of setting it on my hair, leaving out the ombre..

I went like, meh whatever, then dyed it.

YES it went a bit dark and my heart died a little lol

It turns out the brassiness was the one that made my hair look really light.

And this dye really took care of most of that.

At first I really hated it but I have learned to accept it and love it from all the compliments I'm getting lol

Everyone says I look fairer and I think it's probably because of my hair color.

Or maybe it's the fact that I only go out once a month and when I do, it's on the evening.



Whew, I really dislike editing pictures before posting them, but really shoganainaaaaa~

Tomorrow I'll blog about my birthdayyyyyy which was on March 6th and thank you for all of your greetings/gifts and messages  I'm really touched. ♥

ALSO, BY THE END OF THE MONTH, FIRST WEEK OF APRIL, EXPECT ANIMAL CROSSING NEW LEAF POSTSSSSSSS~ YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH~ ♥

And, I have no kissy kissy pictures for now so, here's my drawing of MikuMiku (Hatsune Miku) via my galaxy note 3's S Note. ♥


Sekai deeee~ ichiban o hi me sa maaaaaaaaaaaaa~~ ♫

Lol, so that's it for now, I'll try to update as much more as I can.

It's been a long post, thank you for reading even up to here, I really appreciate it~ ^^

Hope you have a nice day/weekend !!
