Super long time no see! A lot of people have been asking me to blog about my wedding plans and I honestly have had very little to time to chronicle the planning but I do have some pictures from one event related to my wedding. Although it wasn't me that was doing the planning, it was the wonderful people I'm lucky to have in my life that did all the work.

newfound kiiroitori love
I've recently fallen in love with Kiiroitori, the little chick from the Rilakkuma series.
How can you not like this?!
I think my love began because of the limited edition Rilakkuma Hamburger plushes that San-x came out with. I made a small blog post about it, about how my buyer from Japan was able to get it for me. It turns out that she couldn't get it for me, she misunderstood and thought that I was referring to the regular picnic series. T________T
Why are you so cute (and so limited edition-y)!?
But on the bright side, I'm saving money, which is always a good thing. I've found some other sellers that have the Hamburger birdy but they're around $60+ and as cute as it is, it's too expensive for me and with my Asia trip looming ahead, no, just no.
But for those who know me, you know that I can't let it go without getting at least one! Or in my case, seven. That's right, I started researching for this little birdie the moment I realized that I couldn't allow myself to spend over $60 on one plush. Instead, I got 7 for less than that price (shipping included).
All pictures are courtesy of the sellers.
The one in the middle, holding the fan.
The two ribbon ones. I couldn't decide which one to get so I got both, I'm probably going to end up selling one of them, depending on which one is cuter ^-^;;
Devilish Kiiroitori, who knew being so evil could be so cute?
The fuzzy on the top middle.
This is the first one that I found and totally fell in love with after I realized that I couldn't get the hamburger one. They're both food related :D
Looking extremely Parisian with the beret and the national flag coloured tie.
So I might have gone a little crazy with the kiiroitori purchasing, now that I've listed them. But don't worry, I'll sell the extras when they all arrive and I realize that I seriously need money.

valentine's day kawaii
I was pretty productive yesterday but when I got home, I realized that I had left all my kawaii with Alex in his car, which was at his work. Since I couldn't take a picture of all the kawaii he got me for Valentine's Day, I couldn't make a post of it ;_________;
But it did prevent me from double posting, which is something that I don't like to do. I like to give my (few) readers a chance to actually read one of my posts before posting another one. That, and I'm too lazy to make more than one post a day. Blog posts actually take a while to write, believe it or not. Just the searching for pictures, taking pictures, uploading them, etc. takes a long time.
Anyway, normally, when I'm expecting kawaii to arrive at my door, it's always on my mind. I always think to myself, "Is it going to arrive today? Is it going to be there when I get home? I hope it's already there when I get home."
Or if it didn't arrive, which is usually the case, I think, "Why isn't it here yet? What's taking it so long? UGH! Shipping is so slow, but I'm too cheap to pay for faster shipping. It'll arrive eventually right? RIGHT?! I hope it didn't get lost in the mail. I wonder if it's going to arrive tomorrow? I hope it arrives tomorrow."
What I normally look like when I'm waiting for my kawaii packages.
And it repeats until eventually, it arrives. When it does, I'm all like:
For some reason, even though Alex bought a whole bunch of kawaii for me for Valentine's Day, I wasn't thinking about it. Maybe because I was expecting them to arrive in a really long time (don't know why, they were both airmail shipping from Singapore, which usually takes a week) or maybe because I was really looking towards my SPRING BREAK!!!!!!
Except it's called, "Reading Week" for some reason and it's a bit too early for Spring now anyway. Instead of partying it up and being classy (flashing people and getting ugly drunk), I relaxed, caught up with friends, went shopping with my mom and spent a lot of time with Alex. It was a really nice break :)
Anyway, enough with my rambling, let's get to the good stuff. As I mentioned, all the kawaii-ness that Alex bought me for Valentine's Day had arrived and I squeed and made all those God awful noises that I promised would never come out of me ever again.
Packages of kawaii.
Kapibarasans, Nemunekos, and other kawaii, oh my!
Little ram keychain plush and White Tiger plush, both from Caltoy. The tiger's face is a little squashed but that just gives it character :)
White-san and Chicky pouchs from Kapibara-san collection. I love the little antenna!
These adorable pouches are UFO catcher prizes in Japan, believe it or not. I thought they were retail items but I guess it's entirely possible since Japan has way better toy catcher prizes than North America. Alex and I had a lot of fun watching youtube videos of people winning UFO prizes in Japan. My wallet is going to get really skinny in Japan...
Back view, I really like coloured chains too.
Vibrating Nemuneko plush!
Alex and I decided to make a race out of the cats to see which one would get their prize first. The first few times we did it, he had the black one and I had the other one. He won each time and then we decided to switch. Black cat won every time, even when Alex cheated with the orange and white one -_-. I guess the black one is the faster nomers.
Adorable stubby tails!
Christmas Tigger! It's a little late but he's still really cute so I naturally, had to get him.
Valentine's Day Kapibarasans, all standing in row.
And here are the Valentine's Day Kapibarasans that everyone has been waiting for since this post. It was really hard to get a good picture of them and most of the pictures are pretty awkward because they're standing on their feet, holding something but their heads are so big that they topple over.
Each holding some Valentine's goodies.
Top view.
As a surprise, Alex also got me a copy of Cynanide and Happiness, which is a collection of hilarious webcomics. I've had my eye on this book for a few years now but never got around to buying it. I mentioned to Alex a looooooong time ago that I had wanted to get it. I'm surprised that he remembered to be honest and it was sweet of him to get it for me.

Sample comics.

pokemon love
my love and obsession for pokemon has been renewed and it's all this post. so immense is my love for this old school game, i went on ebay and actually checked out what plushies they had for sale (by pokemon center, obvs) AND I FELL IN LOVE WITH THREE OF THEM! i must have them! i previously bought a wooper one because it was kind of cute and then my dog bite off one of its arms....but it has character now.
i used to have a pikachu one (because which kid didn't), a snorlax, charizard, and...CLEFAIRY!!!! except i have clue where the hell why went. probably donated like all my other awesome stuff which i didn't mean to donate. i hate it when that happens. actually, it only happened once. i was so tired of having so much shit, that i just decided to screw looking through all the garbage bags of goodies (i litereally had like 10) and just gave it all away. and as a way to torment me, i'm suddently remembering all this shit that i DIDN'T want to donate. life is so cruel.
thank god, i still my squirtle, even though i don't like squirtle at all. an ugly pokemon is still a pokemon and since i love pokemon, i must tolerate squirtle.
i actually placed a bid on of the ebay plushies BUT i won't say which one, in case someone actually reads this and is a pokemon fan and happens to like the same plushie and OUTBIDS ME!
.....i think i'm going to go ferret my old pokemon games out and play them now.
<3 fire pokemon JUST LOVE THEM!
[EDIT] May 14th, 2010
I WON THE BID!!!!! WOOOOO! It's this one! except i didn't pay 30 bucks for it. i paid 10. =D
