Tagged.


In place of an actual entry, because I am too tired and lazy to go through and narrow down which pictures out of 7 billion I want to put up, I'm responding to Hannah's tag!


The Rules:

1. Each person must post eleven things about themselves on their blog.
2. Answer the questions the tagger has set for you plus, create eleven
questions for the people you tag to answer.
3. Choose eleven people and link them in your post.
4. Go to their page and tell them.
5. NO TAG BACKS
6. You legitimately have to tag


Eleven Things About Me

11.  I really want to learn parapara and the dances to Jpop songs.  But I'm usually too lazy when it comes down to it.

10.  In High School, Japanese was my best class.  I always had perfect grades, and was one of the top in the class.  I think I studied maybe twice in the entire four years I took it.

9.  I really like things with the folllowing items on them: card suits, butterflies, skulls, spiders, Alice in Wonderland stuff....there's more but those are main points.

8.  At one time I tried to study Swedish.  I think I got....a mini course in before I didn't have time for it anymore.  I have time now, but no motivation.  I still remember a few "I am/You are" and "I am not/You are not" sentences.  But those are basic.  Also "I am not fat.  I'm chubby."

7.  Seven is my favorite number.  End all.

6.  My moms mom came from the Netherlands.  And her dad's parents came from Lithuania.  My dad moved to America when he was 3 or something, from England.  So the only family I have in America is: My immediate family, my moms sisters family (cousins), my dads brother and sisters families (Same), and my grandparents.  And all but my grandparents live in Washington or Idaho.

5. I really enjoy drawing.  But I got months between drawing pictures.  For lack or motivation, or time.  

4. I want to own a Savannah Cat.

3.  I have two older brothers, and my parents are divorced.  I lived with my mom through High School.

2.  I have three tattoos.  My grandmothers initials on my left ankle, from when I turned 18.  A red Dahlia on my right shoulder/neck, I believe from when I was 20.  And 1-12 in roman numerals around my left arm, from when I was...21?  I want more.  But need money.

1.  My real surname is Carcas.  Like the dead thing.  And all through school and even in traffic court, no one has wanted to say it for fear of offending me.  It's more offensive if you don't try to say it or say "Car...sass?"

Amy's questions:

1. What is something you want to do before you die?  I want to travel more.  I want to visit Europe and see where my family came from.

2. What things inspire you?  Music inspires me in too many ways to count.  And honestly, random things on people or personality quirks.  I really enjoy creating characters from something random that sparked the idea.  

3. How would you describe yourself in three words? Neurotic.  Neutral. & Genetic.

4. If you have a free day, you are most likely to.... ?  Sleep.  Or go to Seattle.

5. Five things you always keep on your person? A rosary, my cell phone, ID, whatever charm I have at the moment, and necklace.  

6. Who is your celebrity crush? Just one?  Oh no.  More than one.  Cillian Murphy.  Jamie Campbell-Bower.  Tom Hiddleston.  Matsujun.  Oguri Shun.  Toshiya. Oh, and Kyle Gallner.  Plus thirty thousand more.

7. If you could go anywhere in the world right now, where would you go?  Shibuya.

8. Your favorite song at the moment? Dawn of Dreams by Yohio.

9. How do you describe your style?  Really lazy punk/rock gyaru.

10. The thing that makes you the happiest?  Really super cutesy fluffy romance things make me smile and giggle like a child.

(No question 11!)



My Questions

1. Where would you live permanently.  And where would your summer home be?
2. What type of food are you best at cooking?
3. Would you rather be deaf of blind?
4. If you had to lose your right or left hand, which would it be?
5. If you were in SAW what would your game be?
6. Favorite pop band?
7. What position would you be in a band?
8. Who is your favorite member of Arashi? (if you don't have one, just pick a member.)
9. How has your clothing style changed from when you began high school, to when you ended high school, to now?
10. Do you like cheese?
11. Do you think...you could eat...all of the ketchup...one, right after the other...?


And I tag......Well, I don't have many people to tag.  And Hannah tagged most of them already!

So....Miss Amanda Leigh.  Miss Yuki.  And...Miss Chelsie!

Scariest truck ever.

More than once when I was trekking around Shibuya I ran across the scariest truck in existence.  The first time I saw it, I tried to get a photo but things kept getting in the way.

Lucky me, I saw it again.  I say lucky lightly.

Truck of nightmares.


The disturbing Sadako coming out of a Television truck is to promote the new Sadako 3D movie.  Which I didn't get to see.

It was a sight though.  Tons of people would see it and flip out their cell phones to get a picture.  Made me feel less touristy.

Japan Photos are coming!

Never fear!  The first step of uploading them all has been almost fully accomplished.

It's just that I have about a thousand images to weed through, and organize before I can upload them.

Post won't be about days.  They'll probably be about topics.  Or an image itself.  Who knows!  Point is with some subtle (or being told...) pushing, I'm back to working on it.  And some art too!  (Oh my god, no way!) Uploading old stuff, anyhow.  Got to catch up.  I'm also going to be posting all my new art on a blog I decided would be my temporary art blog.

I'll give you the link when I have it ready.

But get excited.  Mediocre pictures are coming.

Back to normal life.

I sort of fell way behind in the Japan updates.  But that's okay.  The point is I still have the memories, and will upload photos soon!

Part of the reason is I've been sucked back into normal life.  Lots of working, and other busy things.  So I haven't had much time to put into my internet life~ Well, not time to focus on it.

Work has been busy busy. I'm becoming a Manager (yay!) so I've got some extra work to do there.  And I've trained new employees three days a week for the last two weeks.  Very time consuming and a little stressful.

I promise I will remedy this!

On another note~  It's father's day.  Last year I did a little post about Miyavi.  My father situation is less than lovely, so to talk about it would be a downer~  I forgot it was fathers' day until I was already at work.  So I didn't get to call my dad, or my mom's boyfriend.  I feel a little bad about the second one, I may call in the morning.

But this brings up another topic!  If I made a post last year...that means this blog is a year old!

I would like to do a special series of posts, or just one straight up special post to commemorate it.....but what?

If you have any ideas please let me know!

I need help!

Going about this wrong.

Again, I'm sorry about the lack of actual updates recently!

But I realize I've been going about this all wrong.

The reason there have been no updates is because it's actually become something I dread doing.  I hate the idea of having to sit down and write every day out.  And feeling like I have to make something for every day I didn't do anything exciting.

So I'm not going to be doing it day by day anymore.

I'll be lumping days together, writing about interesting things or places on their own, and in general enjoying telling my stories.

This should be a chore.  It's supposed to be fun.

So I'm going to be changing my set up!

I hope you like it more.
