Me and my lazyass self + clothing haul

-
I've been sooo lazy, I don't even know why...  image I've really gotta get off my ass and do something!  I thought writing in this blog might get my brain motivated to study.

I still have one class I'm going to have to finish so that means study, study, study for the upcoming exams.

Well, at least I have something to be proud of today since I cooked some miso soup and rice. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

I recently ventured out to my local mall and stopped by the only store I visit, Forever21.  I was so happy because I finally found a couple of dresses for the spring to wear with my cardigans!  The bottom two are the dresses and the top are spring blouses. 


Not only that, but I finally took the plunge and purchased a pea coat on yesstyle.com for around $68 total (shipping included).


I'm quite happy with it and glad I took the opportunity to buy it while it was around 30% off.  During the holidays, I saw something like this and it was around $72 without a discount.  I waited and waited for it to go on sale but it never did and I regretted not buying it because once it got taken off the site, I could never find that same style without it being around $180! (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
  
Okay, so now this is gonna sound bad but I was feeling kind of crazy at the moment.  While I was browsing on ebay, I came across similar Korean styled pea coats that were the shorter length variety and they were so much cheaper, even with the $10.99 shipping!  So the total of this one was about $40 with the shipping included.
I ended up purchasing this pea coat on ebay and I'm hoping that the quality of it is at least somewhat as good as the first pea coat I bought.

 I was seriously thinking about getting the yellow color because it looked cool but I ended up choosing beige since it's just more versatile.

My inspiration for pea coats and slightly more dressy clothing these days is probably coming from these tumblr images I've seen recently. 

I don't know if it's mori-girl inspired but it just looks so elegant and natural and I really want to get this kind of style.
 That's about all for now with clothes.  I can't wait to mix and match with some outfits~!image

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
