BUT STILL ACTS LIKE A 12 YEAR OLD GIRL... ◕◡◕

So, my birthday is tomorrow and usually I like to take silly photos a few hours before 12AM...

Here they are! x)

LOL, I just wonder when my mind and looks will match my age...

DUN DUN DUN~!!!

Everyone has those one or two features they're not pleased with... Not only am I short, I have small feet. As if my shopping life wasn't already difficult in the pants department, but that post will be for another day. Lately, as my interest in shoes has been growing, I find shoe shopping to be an unpleasant experience. My main problem is finding shoes that are small enough for my feet! In the above photo, my wedges are actually too big for me. (　・∀・) I'm a little impulsive so I buy things without thinking about the consequences... For instance in the case of my black wedges, since there is too much space left at the back of my heel, the heel scrapes at the back of my legs...

GROSS... Right? Ծ_Ծ The ones at the top of my heels are from the wedges and the ones near my ankle are from my Dr. Marten's... TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT.

Here are those damned devils.... After my first day of wearing them, I became too afraid to put them on again. LOL, the first time I wore them was to work. I got in an hour early to show them off, but GAWDS... while I was walking around the mall to kill time, it turned into journey of finding thick socks. Walking became dragging my feet around the mall... ಥ﹏ಥ BLEGH, IT WAS SO PAINFUL! However, after some battling, I have somewhat broken them in. They're still painful, but since they're non-refundable I'll duke it out with these till I can proudly say, "I love my docs!"

Hello Everyone~
This is part two of day one on my trip. Honestly, after this I probably wont even remember which photos were taken on which days, despite them being uploaded in chronological order. -_-... Since, my hotel was all the way in Waikiki and my aunt was trying to get our rooms we decided to stay in Aeia for a little while and browse some of the shops near my grandparent's house.

We actually made a trip to a Long's Drugs before coming to DONKI, but who cares about some lame old convenience store right? DONKI IS WHAT'S UP! To my surprise, I actually didn't buy any cosmetics. I gave it a lot of thought in the store... As much as I love Tsubasa and gyaru fashion, dramatic make-up will just never be my thing... So, seeing them in the flesh was just enough for me. ^^~

After being in Aeia for a bit, my family and I headed over to our old home in Foster Village! LOL, weird name, NO, I am not a foster child... It's literally the name of the community I lived in. O.o But to give you all a more general idea of where I lived, it was in the Salt Lake City region :) I had so much fun being back in my old neighborhood. They tore down the community pool and there was even a round-about at the entrance of the community. I think it kind of spruced up the neighborhood. I really wish he had driven around here some more. I remember going on walks with my mom and picking at the cotton plants at one of my neighbors plants. LOL. There were even mango trees we'd have a pick at along our walks... HORRIBLE, but what's Hawaii without picking at your neighbors fruit? ahahahaha~

ALOHA~

I was thinking about editing these photos to match my other image posts, but I wanted everyone to see the true essence of my trip. Anyways, this is a photo set of my first day back in the lovely island, aka my true home, OAHU~ The funny thing is that after nine years of not going back, being there did not feel unfamiliar at all. Honestly, if any of you follow my twitter or know me IRL, you'll know I was absolutely dreading this trip.

I was pleasantly surprised at the fact that I was immediately comforted after stepping out of the plane. The air was different, a good and familiar different. I LOVED IT. Usually, when I'm on an out-of-state vacation, I'm nervous. I am usually filled with anxiety and excitement, but on this trip it was different. Despite how many times I've been to California, I have never been able to shake my anxiety. In Hawaii, I was calm, casual, AT HOME.

Oh, how I wish I could just share that peaceful feeling I experienced... But instead of me trying to explain my whacko feelings, please enjoy my photos. This particular set was taken from the air port to my grandmother's house in Aiea :)

Please stay tuned for more of my travel photos~ ^^

ALOOOOOHAAAAAAA~~~
I am back from my trip!

Actually, I have been back for two weeks already.

I am happy to say, I enjoyed the trip a lot more than I anticipated. I spent months dreading it and honestly looking back, it was exactly what I needed. I am back in Vegas refreshed and feeling like a new person. I still have yet to upload my photos though...
