Sweet rice

Today I made some sweet rice, I think it turned out good for a first try! Well, it is very simple to make anyways... It wasn't too sweet, and was very soft. I also put some cinnamon on it, so yummy ♥

Pollyanna Grows Up

I loved Pollyanna, I often find myself playing the Glad Game as well, oh I haven't explained it here yet, my bad, the rules are you need to always try to find things to be glad for, even if it might seem impossible sometimes. So in this book, Pollyanna has grown, and once again we see her overcoming the problems and difficult times of life, and she's so amazing! I wish I could be at least half as strong as her. This time we meet her new friends, I love them all too, specially Jamie, he's such a sweetie.

Even if Pollyanna Grows Up is a more teenage book, with love issues and such, Pollyanna is such a lovely character, I couldn't help but read these two books as fast as I could and wish her all the best! I want to be like her. I've really been trying to, and I'm glad with it ♥

Pollyanna

I'm not a very great fan of best-sellers, but one day a friend of mine and I were having a discussion about something I've already forgotten, and she made fun of one seeing the world in pink colors, and I didn't uderstand ti, so she told me it was because of Pollyanna, a very optimistic character from a silly children's book, she also told me not to read it, cause it was just too silly. But I'm curious and being a world literature classic, I just needed to check it and surprisingly I loved it! In this book we meet Pollyanna, a little girl with freckles and blond hair, she had already lost her mom, and now that her dad has also passed away, she is living with her aunt, who is very serious and strict, and despite being young and rich, she never seems happy and treats Pollyanna very coldly. Slowly our protagonist gets to melt her aunt's frozen heart, and she starts making changes in the whole city, its people are happier and it even becomes a good place to live. All thanks to the little girl's sunny personality and her Glad Game. I myself am very glad I could read this book, I think everybody should as well ♥

Fifth day

Today we had more introductions and nice acitities, the first week of school was pretty nice and fun. After class there was a welcoming party, but I didn't go, I'm not much of a party-people, I do like to dance and get dressed up and go out with my friends, but I passed this time. And I'm actually pretty glad I did it, I could talk to two really amazing people! One of them I've wanted to talk to since I saw her, even thought she can't see me, she's so bright and cheerful, and she loves literature and she's even published a book already, I'm really looknig forward to talking to her again! And the other person was so unexpected, he has graduated from History school and is attending Literature school now, another very interesting and bright person. I'm so glad I could meet them and talk to them, I feel blessed with so many nice people around.

I love sunflowers, they make me happy.

They always keep looking to the sun, I think we should be like them, we should always keep looking for good things, pursuing our happiness, and just like they can produce many seeds at once, we also should try to do our best in everything we do ♥

Fourth day

Today the teacher prepared an acitivity for us, he wanted us to get to know each other and ourselves too, and think about life, love, our realtionship with the world, the future, the present, about good things, and some bad too, like death. He even brought a cd player and shared some really nice songs with us. Those were some nice and relaxing hours. He also told us a bit of himself, and his life story, which is pretty amazing, I like him. And admire him for all he had been throught and for being strong and keep doing what he loves. I really like people like that. From now on real school starts, everything's going on a smooth and slow pace, cause we're still freshmen, but it's really exciting to get to know the teachers and subjects, I'm lo

oking forward to all of them ♥

I don't like rainy days, but rainy nights can be even worse, the lightings are so scary, and they are much more terrifying in the road, it's been raining so much lately... I'm really glad our driver is good and I have nice companions to talk to and make me forget the rain outside...

Third day

We finally had classes today! Well, they weren't real classes, they were mostly introductions, but everything was so exciting, I'm really happy with my teachers and classmates, and it's just so fascinating when everything's new. I've been quite surprised how most people are so out-going, I wish I could be like that too... Maybe I can learn being near such kind of people everyday. I was also surprised that the first thing every teacher does is pointing the books we'll need this year, and they are a lot, and some are hard to find even in the internet, and the ones I found are pretty expensive. I'm worried, but I'll do my best, I found some in pdf file format and I'm reading on computer, the internet is always so useful. Even if e-books amaze me, I'm a bit sad paper books might be replacled, they already don't get the love they deserve, it's so sad... When I get the chance I'll go buy these books I'm reading on computer, I like to own books, and someday I want to publish my own too ♥

Second day

Our veterans said that if we didn't like the games in the first, we didn't need to come to school the next day. I thought it'd be a pity not to go to school, after I worked so hard for it and longer for it, so I went, and oh did I regret going when the games started again. For the first activty everybody needed to go to the front and introduce ourselves with a microphone, I got so nervous I messed up my speech, luckly everybody is really nice and thought it was actually cute... And then the games started, I joined the first one but then they started getting more embarassing and disgusting, I felt bad and quit. I was nervous thinking what would I do then, I still had the whole night, but then I met new people, and even if I was super shy, it made my night better, I'm always happy to talk to new people. So basically, there weren't real classes in my second school day either. I can't wait to start learning! Well, actually, I think everyday I end up learning something new, even if it's not something from books, it's all new life experience, which is always pretty amusing to me.

I see the twilight everyday from the bus' window, I've always thought the twilight was a sad sight, but I've changed my mind, it's actually just as beautiful as the dawn, and particularly lovely since it brings my beloved moon.

First day

Today was my first day at Law School, I was so nervous. I have classes everyday at night, and it's in a neighbour city, it's not too far, and I go by bus. The other people in the bus are pretty nice, I'm happy. When we arrived to my school, everybody was outside the building, and there was a band playing samba, and all the freshmen were missing shoes and got paint in their faces, hair, arms, clothes, everywhere! The veterans did paint me too, but they went easy on me, which was pretty nice, and some veterans were really nice too, and my classmates are very sweet and friendly as well, I'm happy and relieved, but somehow I don't think I want to go tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be much more embarassing games, today was ok though. I think I'll just stay home and finish reading Rousseau.

I did hear the veterans saying only the freshmen would bring materials, and they were right, in the end, I didn't get to use my school supplies, oh well. And it seems we won't have real classes until next week, it'll be just welcoming parties and games for this first week. I can't tell if it's a good or a bad thing though. Anyways, I'm glad I can study at this school, and I'm very excited to start learning new things and knowing new people too ♥

Hetalia! to march♪

I'm very sad to hear Hetalia anime series might not have more than 100 episodes, even if we'll still have the manga and webcomics, I'll miss the seiyuus' voices so much, I really love them! It'll be sad not hearing ve~ or da?~ or bakabakabaka or aiyaa or aru anymore. I do hope there will be more episodes!

Another series I love as much, even if I gave up watching it (it's over 350 episodes already!), is keroro gunso, all the characters are so adorable! I do miss them too, sometimes I watch one or another new episode or movie, but it's hard to catch up now. And while I was sad about hetalia, I remembered how I gave up watching keroro, and wished hetalia could be as long keroro~

So I did a cross-over fanart between hetalia and keroro ( I think I never did so many characters together!). It was so much fun to do!~ It was hard too, because some charatcers were easy to match, like China needed to be Koyuki, and Canada was meant to be Dororo, and France was good for Saburo-sempai, but the other characters would match more then one, and it was hard to choose and keep some characters out. All in all, I'm happy with this drawing, it might even be my favorite one so far ♥

Ve~

I won't have much time for crafting when my school starts, so I'm trying to do as much as I can now, of course, most of it is related to hetalia!~ Today I sewed Ita-chan, I wanted to sew grown-up Italy and Germany too, but I wouldn't have enough time to do them both, so I decided to sew just Chibitalia, I love them all anyways ♥

Pastaaaaaa~ ♪

Yay finally!!

After two months of long wait and frustration, Gillanek's Christmas presents have finally arrived to my home! I love it how everything is hand-made, it's so so cute, thank you, I love it dear!~

There are two drawings ( she's specially good at coloring, isn't she?), a cross- stitched Christmas card ( with a very lovely poem inside) and cute panda pad ( I love its Hello-kitty like pink ribbon), a cookie and a Polish Christmas wafer ( it's so sweer of you, thank you very much for it!), blue handmade cookie phone strap ( it's so cute and delicate), and a lovely pair of cake pierces ( they smell like the cookie that came together, it's so yummy!).

Thank you again dear, I really love everything, you're so sweet and talented, it was totally worth the long wait ♥

Rubbish...

"Are you American?"

"..."

"It's okey! I'm American too!!"

"Rubbish ... Where's my tea?"

I just needed to sew an Igirimochi and a lettuce Mochimerica's dad, to keep him company. Surprisingly, they all get along pretty well ♥

π?

This is my baby, 3,1415927, you can just call him Pih too~ He's a really lovely cockatail, he loves it when you stroke his head, he likes to sing and sreams as if we could understand him... I specially love his eyes, they have such a beautiful shade of red, speaking of his looks, he looks a lot like Pikachu, right? With his yellow feathers and orange cheeks ♥ I used to have him on my shoulder all the time ( Yar yar pirate! ), but now that we have a dog too, I'm afraid he could get hurt, so he stays most of time inside of his house, we made sure to buy some toys for him to play there and cheer up. Cockatails are really beautiful and adorable birds!

I love you, 3,1415927!~

Kappa

So this week is my brother's birthday, and I asked him what he'd like for it, last year I sewed a Naruto plushie for him, I think he turned out pretty cute. This year my brother asked for a Kappa, so random and weird haha but it was fun to do research on it and sew it, I'll need to change many things on its design, to make it more to my brother's liking, but I think it looks cute this way too.

A Kappa is a Youkai, a Japanese spirit that lives in the rivers, he looks like a human boy, mixed with duck, turtle, fish and reptile characteristics. They can be very mischievous and play pranks on people, but they can also be very polite, and they love the human civilization and cucumbers, I sewed a small Kappamaki for him, it's a cucumber-filled sushi roll, one of my favorites too!

Ham-ham

I've always loved cute pets, I've had fishes ( I think most kids have had fifhes, right? First experience taking care of a little animal ) , rabbits, hamsters, dogs, and my beloved bird ♥ Today I want to write about my Hamsters, they're all in Hamster heaven already, but they always visit me in my memories and heart. I've had three, the first one was called Caio ( I used to love this name so much), he was big and so fluffy, he was really lovely, he'd sleep and eat in your hands. Then my second one came, she was really tiny and cute, I named her Pitch, I loved her so much, her pink nose and hands and feet, everything about her was pure cuteness! And my last one arrived, he looked a lot like Pitch, so I named him Pitchuco, but he was short- tempered boy, he'd often show his teeth to me, and squeal, still he was just as cute as the others. At that time, my friends had hamsters too, and we'd have so much fun bringing our hamsters together, and buying lots of toys, and giving them yummy food, and playing with them.

When I see these hamsters photos online, I wish I had been a better photographer at that time and had taken more photos of my babies, I miss you all so much!~

It's okey!!

Today was a really lovely day, I like to see my house full, with people eating yummy food and having fun together! I'm really thankful for having so many nice people around me.

"It's okey!! I'm American!~"

I love Hetalia too much, so I sewed a mochimerica for myself today, I think he turned out so cute and huggable!! I'll sew him some lettuce tomorrow ♥

Pupe girl ( boy please! )

It's been about two years that I've had my pupe account, in the begining she looked like me, skin color and hair color and glasses, , then she became a vampire with snow white skin color, and finally I decided to make her into a boy, now he's grown up into a more gentleman aristocrat style, it's really fun to dress him like that, and it's quite a challenge too, since the site is more focused in girls style.

The game itself isn't that great, it gets pretty repetitive, events and earning ribbons and replying comments, and uploading photos and dressing up, and it's pretty frustrating if you can't use real money on it for the cutest items, but I just can't leave it, because of the good friends I've made there, and because I'm really thankful to it, for letting me meet my twin soul, I love you my dear ♥

This is my pupe, I know he still looks very girly, but I like him enough like this.

Today I got 88 suteki on this dress up, it's a new record!~

How can I resist you?

At first I though Kinect was 'wow interesting', then I checked the gameplay videos and went 'oh weird', I saw people playing it in the mall and was like 'ahaha it's funny to watch but so embarassing', and then it arrived to my house, in the begining it was really hard to start playing it, I felt so stupid, but then it was really fun, it's really amazing, and when you call friends to play together it's double the fun! We have boguht four games, Kinect adventures is really nice and it's a good 'getting used to' and learning the basics game, then Adrenaline something, a snowboard game, I don't like it, my sister does, I think it's so annoying, and finally Dance Central and Dance Masters! The first one is good for learning dance moves you can use when you go out, and the second one is so adorable, yay for Parapara routines! I love them ♥

I do love Wii too, but I play Kinect more often, it's my daily exercise!~ I don't like parties much, but when I play these games I so feel like dressing up and going out for dancing ♥

"From the King of Kings--Love"

Today I read Cyrano De Bergerac by Edmond Rostand, it's such a fun and beautiful love story. Oh Cyrano, even if your nose is outstanding ( I didn't imagine it being this big, until I googled the title for photos!... ), I'm sure your heart and talent surpass it easily!

My favorite book characters are always quixotic. Don Quijote de La Mancha, Jacinto de Tormes, Policarpo Quaresma, Cyrano de Bergerac, I love you all so much! Thank you for believing in your dreams!~ I shall pursue mine too.

Hata futte- Hata futte- Hata futte paredo♪

Today I sewed for myself these chibi hetalia plushies. It was so much fun! I tried to include as many details as I could!~ From left to right: Arthur, Kiku, Ivan and Yao, and on the bottom line, Pochi-kun, sunflower and Shinatty-chan! I haven't decided what to do for Arthur yet, maybe a cup of tea, or a plate of scones, or Yousei-san..

I hope I can go shopping for more fabric tomorrow, so that I can make Feliciano and Ludwig, and Alfred as well, actually I'd like to make them all!~ ♥

Somewhere over the rainbow

I don't like rainy days, they are scary... But when I see a rainbow I forget the sound of the thunders and the flashes of the lightings, and I just feel happy and warm inside.

After today's rain, I saw this pretty rainbow from my window.

One day I'll have my own home

So I want to be good at doing housechores, I'm still really bad at it, but I think I can get better with practice, or so I hope! The only thing I do (and still can't do it very well... ) is washing the dishes, I've tried to learn how to cook too, but I think I forgot msot of it by now, and I can only bake cakes now ( I see a chubby future me only eating cakes haha).

Today I tried to clean the handrails ( I'm not sure if I succeed) and yesterday I tried to clean the windows. Even if I'm not very good at these, it's actually quite fun to clean the house while listening to my favorite songs ♪

♪♫

I've been attending keyboard classes for about three years, I think. And I really love it! I'm not very good at it, it's really hard, it requires lots of training and some talent.. But I'm always happy when the song sounds good, when I learn a new song, when I learn a song I already love.

This is my keyboard, my loyal companion of many musical nights, frustration and happy moments.

"I know not what tomorrow will bring"

I really love Fernando Pessoa. He's been such an amazing and impressive person.

I really admire him, how much he had loved his language, his country, the Art, poetry, literature, the people. And how he devoted himself to all these.

This is my small collection of his books ( thank you my dear friend who had given me another one, I love it! ), in the sign it says " My Motherland is the Portuguese Language".

Sweet tooth

I really love sweets, they are so yummy and delicious, I never eat enough of them, it doesn't matter if I eat too much for lunch or dinner, there will always be a special place in my heart ( stomach!) for desert.

I specially love cupcakes, they are so cute and yummy, and they taste even better if you have friends to help bake them and decorate them together, and of course, take many silly photos together!

This is a chocolate cupcake I baked the other day, cute and yummy!

I will miss you forever

I have been wearing glasses since I was seven years old. I've had many kinds of glasses, golden, pink, blue, purple, silver, brown, round, rectangular, oval, clip-in sunglasses lenses... But this one pair, I've had it for three years, and I still love it so much! My sight problems change, o I've changed lenses, but not my glasses ♥ they have broken three times already, but this time they said they can't fix it...

I looked for a similar one all over my city, and they'd say the design I wanted was outdated, I wouldn't find it anywhere, but I mgiht be vry lucky! I found it and for such a good price too, I'm really happy now~ my new pair will arrive in ten days, until then I won't be able to stay too long on computer or reading, my eyes aren't very good for these..

These are my old glasses, my new ones are much alike, but I still miss them so much!

Lovely pic-nic with friends

Thank you very much, Teruteru bozu! I was so happy to see the sun shining despite of yesterday night's rain.

Some friends and I had a pic-nic in the park today, it was lovely, nice conversations and yummy food (I brought cupcakes ♥)

There were many kinds of different trees and flowers in the park, you could go inside the jungle and see wild monkeys, we were lucky to see a monkey family having their breakfast, they're surprisingly picky with their food! There were other animals too, such as a pony, lambs, turtles, ostrich, many beautiful different chickens, and peacocks, above you can see a photo of a very friendly and photogenic one. He's so beautiful! If I were to reborn I'd like to be a bird..

Please rain go away

I sewed this Teruteru bozu with felt today. Isn't he cute?~

Tomorrow I'll have a picnic with some friends, I'm so excited!

I do hope it will be a nice and sunny day ♥
