This is what makes me feel better

  • Jan. 8th, 2009 at 1:36 PM

 

 

After a very shitty week at work, where I was constantly getting angry customers who just would NOT accept that store policy is store policy, and I was working very long hours which did not make me happy either. I had to constantly explain to customers that I'm sorry customer, but NO, I cannot give you cash back for something you do not have a receipt for especially since it is broken. I do not care how much you are going to rant and rave about this is how you paid for it and how I'm just a f***ing bitch because I'm not being fair. Honestly it is making me close down and not want to help you even more. I will give you two very specific examples of how I wish I could treat the customer how I felt they should be treated.

The nerds attack

  • Sep. 6th, 2008 at 7:06 PM

Yes, it is the sad truth that in my obsession to get awesome grades this semester I have secluded myself to my room a great deal of time. Though on the funnier note I am participating and meeting more people this semester. I am currently participating in four clubs Ballroom club, Japan club, China club, and International club. I am the student director of the campus performance of Rocky Horror Picture Show, which makes me go to the programming board meetings. Then because I might as well I decided one night I represent Ballroom club at Belcon, the student body thingy. I also work at the Intercultural Center, where all the people who work in the department of intercultural affairs work. I feel important and yet like I'm not doing enough at the same time.
I have wonderfully finally settled on one mold for the MNF I would like to get in the near-distant future. Miyu so unless fairyland comes out with a much better mold....like the mold of my dreams I will get her.

Anything else I have to tell you people of peoples. I need to take dolly pictures T0T

College and wonderin

  • Aug. 24th, 2008 at 9:50 PM

So I'm officially back at college and add drop day is tomorrow. I got most of my books which have almost cost me $200 total, I'm sure I can break $200 tomorrow when I go pick up the last two. My new roommate is awesome and from China (again yay!) and we exchanged the secret mandatory "meet your roomie" gifts. I gave her an unazukin and she won the contest by giving me a 2008 Nini Olympic plushie, compact mirror from Russia, and now a really awesome fold up reusable shopping bag.

OMG! She just walked up to me in a mudd mask trying to talk, but she couldn't because it hardened and her face is kinda stuck like that till tomorrow. That was awesomely hilarious and made my day.

Back to school my goal is to get a 3.0 or higher while doing all my commitments! So for my class load I've got Second year Japanese, First Year Chinese, Japanese Ghost and Monsters (this one was really hard to get into), and Education in a Democratic Society. Hopefully because my roommate is Chinese and her friend will be TAing for most of the Japanese classes I'll be able to do it. I mean two As and two Cs = a 3.0 right? Just kidding I'd love to get a 4.0 though.

The positive side of coming back to college is I got to temporarily quit my job. Which I needed to do because the drama was coming up. One girl was stealing commission, one girl was being an absolute bitch, and one of the new people got fired and we didn't get told a reason (the manager likes to gossip so a zipped lip from her means something). Unfortunately with leaving that job there also goes my awesome paycheck. I will be lucky to get 5 hours a week here and at minimum wage that equals $131 a month if I'm lucky. This is gonna be fun.

On the side of doll news I finally found a home for my Tezca pre-order thanks to the lovely Mayonaka being a sport and wanting the doll from me. I will it seems be keeping Jade because my split partner feel through last minute and it seems like most people have found split partners as well. I mean.....in all honesty I guess it isn't that bad? My guy numbers were really growing thin and he may be decent rewigged. If not I can sell him later down the road. I still need to scale down my Pullip numbers and am seriously considering if I want to let my Lan Ake go....she was a mild grail doll for me (not as much as Mercu) and I finally got her, but.....I feel like she doesn't fit in to the collection currently. I guess I'll keep an eye on her price and make a choice based on that.

The whole reason of focusing sooooo much on money is half because I'm falling for the idea of owning an MSD mainly MNF Serion and Ryeon. Right now Ryeon because there are so many cute clothes on the market for MSD's right now...unlike the Yo-SD sized...I can never seem to find something that I like in stock. The other half is that I'm going to have to buy a plane ticket soon for Japan. Well that is if they let me into the exchange program and I will cry if they don't.

Entertainment Weekly’s list of the top movies of the last 25 years.
Go through their list and  color teal the ones you have seen and underline or color mauve the ones you own on video or DVD.

Added: Bold anything you've seen in the theatre (as opposed to on tv or rented).

"The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed."
1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them ;-)

A little update

  • Jun. 29th, 2008 at 7:51 PM



I really am not dead yet, I'm just a lazy SOB when it comes to updating my LJ. What have I been up to since then? Well I got a new Blythe and if I understood the instructinos right clicking on the picture should take you to my flickr where you can see oh two more pictures.

The best news is I'm using awesome camera more often now. It is a Canon EOS 20D according to dA when I look at the picture stats....not sure if that is good or not. Waiting for a Blythe scalp in the mail so I can work on custom blythe, also resisting the urge to attempt carving...I think that is good, and also wanting to kill JP over the obsene amount of paint they used on the HasH Taeyang...never use as bait.

Movie Meme?

  • Feb. 13th, 2008 at 9:54 PM

SUPPOSEDLY if you've seen over 85 movies, you have no life. Mark the ones you've seen. There are 239 movies on this list. Copy this list, paste. Then, put x's next to the movies you've seen (all the way through, since I know I've seen parts of several of the movies below, but those don't count!), add them up, change the header adding your number, and click post. Have fun!

Hangry

  • Feb. 3rd, 2008 at 6:27 PM

I feel bad for my lj because I seldom update it....maybe I should include life experience with it? How is this? I received the bait head I did in a partial trade and it is actually a rescue head. I'll probably take pictures before I start in on her just to show the vast before and after deal....because at this point anything I do to this head in my views would be an improvement. Now for the happy thing! Pictures of my Hangry Takoyaki!


Relaxation technique

  • Jan. 1st, 2008 at 2:38 PM

  I took Maguna outside for a photo shoot to try and calm down after reading an "interesting fact" so here is my baby!

The old )

 
The New )

 His new look is very sexy and I love him this way. I may change his eyes I don't know yet.

You want to return what?

  • Dec. 23rd, 2007 at 7:08 PM

 The title comes from a funny incidence at work today when a customer announced that she wanted to return a gift card....I didn't think you could do that. I had to call catalog department (those gals know everything) and even they were confused. In the end I just told her no, but she could use it to pay off her store credit card bill. Luckily she was nice and agreed to that idea. I was happy because due to the weather the store was slow and only the most patient customers were there. The only weird thing I had to do all day was sort through about 500 gift cards (at the very least) to find some credit card brand gift cards because they were some issues. I'm happy to have helped and the lady in the cash room was super nice and gave me a lollipop for helping her. Apparently I'm a very popular person to have helping other departments or people in general because everyone thinks I have an extremely positive attitude.
  This helps greatly because I can see other departments and have fun. I don't particularly like how things are running currently because I don't have my schedule for after x-mas which is about 2-3 days from depending how you look at it. I like the fact though I'm making money for school and I'll have some left over to pay off my pre-orders Hangry, Horizen, and Cinnamonroll....I have to many dollies! I plan on taking some better pictures of Maguna X-mas because I always am working 9-5 so by the time I get off work all the daylight is gone and....unnatural light pictures suck unless you want that yellow colors to your pictures.

 MY FEET HURT!!!! Yay, for standing 8 hours straight >_>

Customizing fun

  • Dec. 1st, 2007 at 2:03 PM

    I'm almost finished with my first commission! http://tn3-1.deviantart.com/fs24/300W/f/2007/333/1/a/WIP_updated_by_Jynx_of_Time.jpg
 She's originally a Nomado, but her owner wanted Lulu (that's her name it's cute) to have a little spice. The make-up needs to get the last minute clean-up, I'm thinking of adding a little blush because the black eyeliner stuff is kind of washing out her face. Than I get to spray matte her face and add some double lashes XD She's gonna be super sexy and I hope her owner loves her.

  Next project will being working on my bait head that I have, I have everything for her, but her face needs some color XD and than I had a stupid moment where I grabbed another nude doll for cheap because well, it's Stica, and I love her eyechips because I'm thinking of shoving them in Prunella when she comes because her original eyes suck! Also I've got a funny photo shot coming up and her wig is perfect! So I'll either keep her stock or I'll use her as a bait idea I had awhile ago.

Nasty cold!

  • Nov. 28th, 2007 at 8:59 PM

 I guess it makes sense that if you hang out with sick people (my whole floor is sick!) that I would naturally get sick as well. So Basically I ended up cleaning because it always makes me feel better if I feel crummy. Than I found out what the highlight of most of my days are

いも.

 

So, I'm hoping that this sickness will go away really really soon.

A moment of relief!

  • Nov. 12th, 2007 at 11:54 PM

   So I'm just really happy that my dolls have found acceptance among the people of my floor and a few outside this floor. It gives me a great deal of hope that what I do could become a trend or something. It definately would be an interesting club on campus ....well I could start a club on campus and us our $50 to buy a naked something. It would be hilarious. Side note is that more people are coming to me for cusomization quotes so that is awesome. I currently am working on a project at the moment.....my first ever commission! I'm gonna start in on her face tomorrow because it's one of my big free periods.....though I'm wondering if I want to start with the lips or the eyes......so much to choose from and the choice of styles and mediums.
  On a fun side note I just bought a mostly complete custom (I just have to buy another wig for it and maybe fix on detail if it bugs me) and I'll be a happy girl....unless that Lan Ake is still for sale....than I might be a broke little girl.

I'm on my own

  • Oct. 21st, 2007 at 10:39 PM

My roommate is gone and I have a standard college double room to myself, I realized she had much more room than me so I no longer care that she left or not. I got two little fish and I get to see how log they'll live under my care.....so far I've been more caring than a desert, as my cacti have proven so I can probably take care of some fish that the pet store was selling. It seems logical and they were prettier than goldfish for options and I wasn’t going to pay $45 for that blowfish that was making faces at me.....I’m a sucker for animals making faces at me.....or I’m just simple.

                I’m proud of myself for branching out a little and went to hang out with some people on the floor. I’m very anti-social because.....I don’t know, but I actually left my room to hang with people for a good 3 hours. Though it made me realize that I have to make my room feel more welcoming because I have so much empty space in here since my old roommate left. We shall see what I decorate with, but I don’t have the balls yet to put out my dolls.

                The thing that is bugging me is I’m starting to develop an attitude when it comes to dolls, not a very good one either. It’s one of those feelings that come with being in the hobby a long time, but I haven’t been in it very long. Many things I know is due to stumbling into the right people when I was very new and finding things out fast so I didn’t end up with a lot of newb dolly mistakes like.....I don’t know body staining or dolly melt. Than again a lot of things are common sense if you think more than a minute. I should definitely be nicer when looking at some dolls, sure some are just plain wrong, but it’s not the dolls fault. I should get another hobby so I don’t obsess over this or start picking up art again; I just need something to split time so I don’t do something stupid like yell at certain newbies who are saying the dumbest things without bothering to search for the answer. I’m sure I did it, actually I’m pretty sure I’ve made stupid posts, but  I stopped fairly fast and they should to before I say “fuck the kittens and rainbows someone needs a boot up the ass.”

 

 

 

And there is the rant/whatever I should really find something that occupies my time so I don’t write journals or do those poll things. It would start a very bad cycle.

Of course there's more

  • Sep. 18th, 2007 at 11:48 AM

 Well I took my bunny back to college with me.....though if I don't get her an obitsu soon I'm leaving her at home over fall break. There's only two this time because well her hand wanted and did fall off....luckily I found it again after searching for about five minutes.



 


She's going for the layzars Cauldy!

Monomono Time!

  • Aug. 29th, 2007 at 4:19 PM

Yeah I brought my Monomono to school so I realized....I'd have to take pictures eventually. I did name her as well.......so introducing Tonkatsu


So that was Tonkatsu's adventure outside the Art Museum....she was actually climbing on some sort on mound/artwork thing in the shape of a lizard. I felt bad because my camera died in the middle of it.....I would take pictures tomorrow, but I have to track down a work study job and find out the progress of the one I applied for.
