Tekko Trip & ChuuMelo Meet

 Hi hi~

I just got back from a weekend trip and it was so exciting! 

I got to meet up with Rae and have my first ever in-person gal meet!

I spent all morning and afternoon Friday traveling...

Kuma charm from SweetHeartYun!

I decided to wear himekaji and did my makeup in the train station while waiting for my connection. It turned out super cute, especially considering I was balancing my mirror on my lap as I tried to do it w

My look that day really reminded me of Mizukitty!

Well, it turned out to be a huge mistake... We stayed out pretty late on Friday after I arrived and in the end I ended up wearing my lenses for a total of 16 hours 

we played at the game center until it closed

When I woke up on Saturday morning, my right eye was hurting SO badly and was blood red (but not my left one for some reason)... Despite the pain I quickly put my lenses in to take a few pics of my kogal look~ I finally got to do it after planning it almost half a year ago and I'm so happy with how it turned out

You can kinda see how my right eye is red here

Then I went to meet Rae!!

It was so exciting!!! We exchanged a few gifts and then headed to browse the goods they had for sale~ We got some sweet comments about our outfits and someone asked if we matched color schemes on purpose

We got lunch and then went to the j-fashion swap meet, where I was able to sell quite a bit of my old clothing including my old lolita skirts. I was sad to part with them but honestly, they'd just been gathering dust in a box in my closet, so I'm glad they could go to a good home. I also picked up a lovely pair of earrings! Then we headed back to do some more shopping and drink boba

After that we went to play some games and we accomplished our goal of doing Para para! It was both our first times doing that song

We decided to split up there for the evening because we were getting kind of tired... I ate a late dinner and drank a little with my college friends, but then I totally crashed and couldn't even pull the blanket over myself... 

The next day, I went with a hime look

I love wearing this style and I wish I had the time/opportunity to do it more often! Rae was wearing fairy kei that day

After meeting up, we went to a flea market and we found matching My Melo and Cinna ears! It was the cutest thing ever, especially because they matched our outfit theme colors

Best impulse purchase ever!

We went back to do some last-minute shopping and pick up the things we'd wanted but passed up the day before. And I'm kicking myself because I didn't buy the heart belt I'd been eyeing up the whole time! OTL

Finally, it was time for me to catch the train back home... 

It went by too quickly but we promised to meet up again soon
I'm already looking forward to that day!

This weekend was SO much fun, I came away with a huge confidence and enthusiasm boost and after getting to go all out with my looks and getting to finally meet a gal friend in person!

It's funny that Rae was one of the very first people to talk to me when I made my gal account... We bonded over Tamagotchiand it turned out we lived decently close to one another! 

That's all I have for this time, but I need to catch up on blogs so I guess the rest of this month will be blogmas 

Thank you for reading! I'll talk again real soon, and I'll share what I got at Tekko in another post~
