Does anyone even still read this?
May. 1st, 2005 10:57 amWow, look I am posting, and in my livejournal... does anyone still read it, and if so, why since I am lazy and my life is dull.
For those who don't know, I am in Japan again.
My plane arrived one hour early, one WHOLE HOUR. How the hell did that happen and which gods do I need to sacrifice to, to thank them for this miracle. I also once again managed to have decent movies on my flight. I can easily watch the Incredibles several times in a row. lol
Then I managed to amke it out of Customs with exactly enough time to make the 3:15 NEX. Woot! I was amazed at my timing skills. I am so not Fuji, oh wait, I am.
Overall, I am enjoying Japan. I am trying to get lots of pictures and do fun things. I also get to speak my terrible Japanese. The last few nights I have been cooking since it was still Passover. It's sort of fun playing housewife in Japan and I can fortunately make omelettes. Go, me!
Tomorrow, I hope to go to Shinjuku and maybe Ikebukuro. I ought to, you know write some postcards but then I need to actually find postcards to write.
So for those curious, I went to DS 14. I also was amazing late and had a crappy number and missed all of Rieko's dresses. I misset my alarm and didn't wake up until 7:45 o_O I didn't get to the show until 9:00 and was #360 O_o But on the other hand, it's way better to wait there for only 2 hours versus 4
And other than Rieko's dresses I did rather well. I missed my chance to get the Annz doll I liked better by thinking their booth was on the third floor and that they were a no show. (Got tricked into waiting on line at LW instead) But I did get to see the Annz dolls in person. Very pretty. I also got to see the Blue Fairy dolls in person and wah! I wish I was rich and could afford one and like could get one from Korea. I need Choco. lol He's the cutest thing.
A lot of SD/MSD clothes, mostly girls. Way too much Blythe and Pullip stuff for my tastes. Had fun looking at the Castle dolls. Volks seemed to be in a pissy mood because this year they weren't selling anything but advance catalogs to Doll's Party on Tuesday. Last year they sold some SDs and lots of Who's That Girl outfits.
I gave in and bought a cute outfit from Ein Kleine. Decided I am not sure I like the new Momokos and stared at the way expensive 3rd generation NRFB dolls Totoco had.
I did take some pictures, though not of that many SD people because afterb a while they all sort of start to look the same.
Kyon and Kaori had a fabulous set of Phantom of the Opera dolls.
The Doll Show seemed more overwhelming at 3 floors. Or it could have just been me.
I finally got an official Rikkai jersey. I am most pleased about this. I've also bought way too many doujinshi already and Super Comic City doesn't start until Tuesday. I worry about bringing things home already. ^^;;
I got a wrong Jackal torture book, The D-Amb OhtorixEiji porn, and two more Death Surf SanadaxNiou books. Wheeee to SandaxNiou even if I think it would be NiouxSanada.
I bought the X chess pieces and there is no new art in the booklet. Buuuuu The only new picture is from an advert for the upcoming CD/DVD release, though I adore the picture and it almost makes it worth it. It has Kamui and Akira in it. All it needed was Syaoran. *sighs* Though because of Tsubasa, Syaoran is all over the place.
I bought myself Loveless earrings and a set of bandaids because that was just too amusingly wrong for words.
I've been visiting places that have appeared or will appear in RWT and getting pictures. Life is happy when I can do that.
expect another post sometime in the future, maybe.
