The eleven questions that Sarah gave:

1. How would you describe your fashion style?
I always find this difficult to answer! My style usually falls more towards shorts and long shirts with very little colour at all.

2. If you were a model for any particular magazine, what one would you choose to model for?
Ehh~ I'd love to say EGG or Kera - but then partially I wouldn't REALLY want to be a model, but if I had to chose a magazine it would be FRUiTS though, they are street snaps.

3. What is your opinion on plus sized models?
Is not about the size that matters. Girl (or boys!) if you've got the confidence, you've got the job! Honestly, I am sick of stick thin models and mannequins in shop windows. Give me a REAL human please.

4. If you were locked in a cupboard for a weekend with one item of food and drink to survive on, what item would that food and drink be?
I'm glad I get the choice since all we have is catfood in there. Chicken udon and melon soda. I'm set for life basically when I move to Japan trapped in the Boys room.

5. If you were given a one way ticket to any location in the world - where would you go?
Lol Japan.

6. Best live gig you have been to so far in your life?
This is difficult! SUPER difficult because of how many I've attended. Oneman shows, I would have to say Zip.er at Shibuya O-WEST. Then it would have to be the last show I saw in Japan with Codomo Dragon and N@H.

7. A song that makes you feel nostalgic?
Hm, PIECEmaker, or ONESTAR by PIECElang, simply because of the live and the atmosphere. The struggle and difficulty in getting their in the first place! But, it was worth it.

8. If you were to meet your idol, how would you react and what would you say to them?
I kinda did meet my idol -- I recall that I stiffened up, like 'He is there.' which didn't help when he sat beside me. I didn't speak, because I'm dumb.

9. Favourite item of clothing/accessory/footwear in your wardrobe?
... TOO MANY! Though I have nothing amazing to say about my wardrobe. Possibly my Monomania things -- or 10ST bracelets?

10. What do you aspire to become?
Housewife.

11. What life lessons do you live by?
"No matter how much sugar you put on a shit, it will always remain a shit."

(っ´∀`)っ Isle of Wight

Yo~Ho~!!
 

I recently went to Isle of Wight on a family holiday! It was much needed after previous events back home, and the change of scenery was relaxing. Even though the weather wasn't great and was typically British, sun in the morning, wind and rain in the afternoon and finally rain or a light mist. So I couldn't really dress well at all, regardless to the fact it is now officially summer, I wore my scarf a lot. The only nice days I captured on camera were actually cold and windy, but yet people still insisted on going into the sea.
My Father had previously been to Isle of Wight, but as a child, so we went to visit a lot of the places he could recall. One of those things happened to be a Train. It travelled along the pier into the middle of the ocean. At first I thought, there was another train connecting it back to the bottom of Britain as Isle of Wight is a small part of the UK just a  very small isle, but no. It was basically a train to the middle of the ocean, and yes. Yes I was scared because of my phobia for ocean water and what is in the water -- gah. We decided to walk back inshore, which was still rather uncomfortable and I started with the, 'What if?!' situations. Anyway I obviously made it back alive. The train line had the original line next to it, albeit the wooden structure. Urban Ocean?



I had such a nice time away with my Family, even if they drive me nuts towards the end of the week. But I had a great experience, travelling on a Ferry, a floating bridge (don't ask), and lots more~! I haven't completed any of my gift ideas for my Boo yet, although I got his Sister the CUTEST plushie ever. It's tag says 'Nacho' but I'm going to hand it and say 'Chibi!' or point to the dog, and hope she doesn't give it him... I also got him a sand glass sculpture, so it'll be hard explaining that one in Japanese to him when he receives it. When returning home I was excited to fetch my Cats, I miss Mia so much! Not only that, but this Thursday we are rehoming a new cat, called Sam! He's beautiful, big black panther. The only downside to coming home is facing the reality all over again, oh well~

Have any of my readers been on a vacation recently?! Or are going? I want to hear!
