I know you may be tired of hearing about it, I know I am. But there's no denying it, the economy SUCKS right now! ;_; My hours at work suck so bad right now, I have to part time jobs and I'm still only getting about 30 hours a week. If that. And there were just quite a few layoffs at one of my jobs. *cries* And the people who got laid off, were such hard workers and they deserved it a lot less than other workers who shall remain nameless.

And as a result of this sucky economy, I have had to sell most of my dolls. My lovely Callidora (Limhwa Human) is up for sale, and I do NOT want to sell her, but I have to sell one of my girls and I really, really don't want to sell Emma or Carol again. (Yes, you heard me right, CAROL!! I recently re-adopted her!) Maybe I won't have to. Thought I do owe money this year instead of getting a tax refund. In the area of $300! *sobs* So, I think I have to sell Calli, though I don't want to. Only problem is, she isn't selling. I have not gotten ONE pm about her. This is beyond frustrating. D=

On a more happy not, as I said above, Carol is back home with me and I am so incredibly happy to have her back home!! =D She is even more beautiful than her previous shell, she has had her eyes modded so that they don't look puffy, and she really looks stunning! Spam time!! =D








Her faceup was done by the lovely Tsuminaki (Vitta Vera). I don't know who modded her, I bought her already modded.

Don't you hate it when you post a doll for sale and no one, NO ONE wants to buy it? I have a Unoa hybrid for sale on DOA, very cute, on a body that matches almost perfectly and is uttery cute. Nothing wrong with her. I just decided I would rather have a Mnf WooSoo girl or Ryeon. Its been over a week, and not ONE pm or reply post on my thread. NOTHING! *sigh* I'm sorry for my venting, I'm just frustrated. I had hoped I could buy my Mnf girl by my birthday and, I guess its not going to happen.

I suppose this is to be expected what with the economy being as sucky as it is. I wish someone would adopt my girl! ;_;

So, I'm totally stocked! I bid on a winking Sist faceplate on DOA and I soooo hope I win!! *bounces* Her faceup is *adorable*! Bidding ends on Friday, and so far, I am the high bidder! I hope, I hope, I HOPE I win! *crosses fingers* If I do, her name will be Jem (like Jem from the 80's cartoon) and I will definetly make her a hybrid with a Latiblue body (cos Unoa bodies are waaay too much money for my current budget). I really shouldn't make it a habit to keep buying floating heads and faceplates, as this makes me want to buy bodies for them. XD I just bought an elf Chiwoo head and have plans to make him into a HER. XD I may even try my hand at a faceup! ^_~ So excited, I can't wait until Friday! T_T

OMG, I am soooo can't wait for fall to finally be here. ;_; This summer has been brutal! Expecially in terms of humidity. I could practically SWIM through the air, its so thick! >< I love fall; the leaves changing colors is so beautiful, the cool, crisp air, and most of all, Halloween! My favorite holiday! ^_~ I already have some of my Halloween decorations up! ^^;; And I already know what I'm going wear for a costume. ^_^

Recently, my little baby Supia Seron has arrived and my Souldoll A-ku kitty. :D They're soo cute! I will update with piccies very soon! ^_~

My parents have been out of work for a week now, and they're driving me CRAZY! Ughhh!!! D=< I hope they find jobs soon, they're killing me! I mean, don't get me wrong, I love them, they're my parents. But when they're home all damn day, and open my mail while I am at work, and yell at me over stupid stuff, and get mad if I get ANY packages in the mail, and just, Argghh!! ;_; And they said since they got severance pay, they are going to take off a MONTH or TWO!! *screams* ;_;

Anywho, I can't post without spamming one of my girls! ^_~ Enjoy!

So, I have had a very eventful couple months. Some good things happened, some bad. . .

I am happy to say, that I have adopted another Soony, and couldn't be happier. I will NOT EVER sell her again, she is here to stay. ^___^ She of course has the same name and back story. I was going to give her a different name and story, ect., but, I decided she is the same ol' Emma after all. I have also adopted a lovely MnF Miyu that I have named her Candi because she is so sweet I can almost feel the cavities coming on looking at her. ^_^u AND, I also have a Souldoll A-ku kitty coming soon. I admit, I have gone a bit overboard with my dolls lately, but I am so very happy. ^_^

Summer has been crazy lately, VERY humid. The week before summer officially began, we had a BRUTAL heatwave. T_T I'm talking high 90's and 100 degrees! x_x I already can't wait for fall! And since lots of college and high school kiddos are out of school for the summer, my hours have gone down a bit at Target. Which is good because I was really getting worn out with all the hours I was working between my first job and my second job. On the downside, though, it means a little less pay. =/ But at this point, I'll deal with it, I need a break after all.

Typing has the challenging the past couple weeks. The Friday before last, I was getting out of my car and was in a hurry and accidentally slammed my finger in the car door! That HURT sooo bad! So, I had to call out and go to the walk in center to have it patched up. I almost needed stitches, but luckily I didn't have to get them. They instead put this glue on my finger and put steri-strips on it to keep it closed and I had to wear it in a splint for a couple weeks. (And of course, it was on my right hand ><) But its getting better now, its not as bruised and is mostly closed up. But I may lose the nail. T_T I will definetly be more cautious when getting out of the car from now on.

My parents lost thier jobs since the company they worked at for over 20 years is moving out of state and my parents don't want to move out of state, so, when the company moves, my parents won't have jobs anymore. =o( So, they said I am going to have to help out with bills until they find new jobs. Which, I understand that totally, and I'll help. I just hope I'll be making ENOUGH to help. ;_; So, I'm a little scared. I hope we're going to be okay. =o(

Here's some pics I took of my kiddos recently. Enjoy!

So, I've been working my 2 jobs, and I am getting pretty burnt out. X_X Target has been giving me an asston of hours lately along with big y and boy oh boy is it tiring. First I wasn't getting enough hours, now I'm getting too much! When it rains it pours. . . Oh well, at least it'll be easier for me to pay the bills, maybe I can pay off some bills sooner. And bring home Audrina sooner. Yup.

Audrina is a dreaming Lishe I have on layaway btw. I shouldn't have agreed to put her on layaway when I shouldn't be doing anymore dolly spending, but, oh well. What can I say, I have no will power. ^^; I got my If finally on Feb 26. She is GORGEOUS!! Anyone who was put off a bit by the stock photos on Luts - ORDER HER! She is so much prettier IRL. Here are some piccus :







Yeah, they're pretty craptastic, but I havn't had the time lately to do some better photos. =/

I've been noticing lately, that my cat, Tigger has a lot of the same quirks and strange habits that Mittens did. Its really weird. He loves the jump up onto places he knows he's not allowed to jump onto, plays with his food in his water dish (he used to put a piece of kibble in the water dish and then fish it out with his paw and eat it like that O_O) and he likes to lay right on people's legs like Mittens did. Hmmm. . . maybe he's Mittens re-incarnated?

*sigh* I have had a headache for days now that does NOT want to go away. Its really frustrating me. I took an advil migrane too. Argh!

Well, off to bed I go. Need to be at target at 8am. Barf.

Blah!~ I hate waiting!

I sold my Unoa from the preorder (my second Unoa, I do still have Tink, my Winking Lusis) and ordered my If from Luts and I have been waiting exactly one week today and it seems like I've been waiting FOREVER! *sigh* Anywho, I probably should have ordered a Soony since Soony is what I had my heart set on, but, I looked at the pics of If and I kept going back and forth between the two until I caved and ordered If. XD *bounces* Of course, they have the event going on right now so I am going to have to wait double the time I would normally have to. :headdesk: But on the positive side, I will be getting a free doll head. I hope they send me the type B head I requested.

Well, my b-day is coming up! I'm going to be 26. Aaaand I still live with my parents. -_- That makes me feel like a real loser. I really wish the cost of living in CT wasn't so damn high. I mean, you can pay a MORTGAGE payment with what it costs to pay one month to live in an apartment. And thats in a somewhat decent city. Yeah, I could get an apartment in Hartford where its cheaper, but, that's not a city I want to be living in, most of Hartford is WAY BAD in terms of crime. I don't really want to live with a roomate either because I have a hard time trusting people. =o( I could live with my BF but, he even said he dosn't want me to move in with him until he can find a better place to live since the area he lives in isn't too nice either (LOTS of crime, he's had his car stolen). *sigh* I feel so trapped. I don't want to live in the slums where its not safe to live, but I also don't want to keep living with my parents so my Mom can constantly be opening my mail, invading my privacy, yelling at me because I don't do enough around the house and, when I do do more, I get yelled at becaue I don't do it right!! No matter what I do, its never enough!! Really, she makes me so damn mad sometimes. And then there's my Dad with his drinking. I mean, he is really a nice person and I get along with him great when he hasn't been drinking, which is hardly ever, but once he's had a few beers, he gets really verbally abusive. And I wonder why I have depression.

I really, really am going to try to make 2008 a better year. I hope that by the end of the year, I have a decent paying job and my own place to live. I hope I can do it. SO, If is going to be my last bjd for a looooong time, so I can concentrate on saving up. I've REALLY got to cut back on the spending.

I don't have any new pics of my girls at the moment, but, here's a pic of If because she's so pretty and I can't wait for her to get here ;_;

Almost forgot to post this!! It looks so good! Now I can't wait 'till summer. XD

Wowsers, I havn't posted in forever! Since last year! =O

I wasn't feeling to great over the holidays. Not health-wise, just, it was my first Christmas without my Grandpa, and it was not easy. =( I just didn't feel very festive or happy. =(

I did get to see my Cousin's little baby daughter for the first time. She is ADORABLE! OMG! She's 10 weeks old and sooo tiny! And I saw her big sister, last time I saw her she was a little baby. She's 3 now! So, I enjoyed seeing them and of course, my Cousin, since he lives in VA and I don't get to see him and his family often.

I got my Unoa, on Christmas eve! However, I have decided, I just don't need two Unoas, so, I am keeping the Lusis faceplate and am trading the bod. I have someone interested right now who offered to order a Soony for me off Luts in a trade for my Unoa body and I am going to accept if she definetly agrees to. I soooo miss my Soony! T_T (I sold her to get Tink) I think if I do get her, this time, she will be named Miharu, since she looks Oriental and Emma isn't really and Oriental name. I have my fingers crossed! I hope she agrees to the trade! And I don't know how long luts faceups usually take as of recently, but I hope it dosn't take a super long time for them to finish it. X_X

I can't post piccies right now, which is pretty annoying. My dad bought a new computer and there is lots I havn't figured out yet. -_- I just can't figure out how to upload pictures. *sigh*

I havn't been posting for a while. . . I've been awful sad. =o( Unfortunatly, it is because I lost my Grandfather. =''( It all happened very quickly, he was diagnosed with lung cancer and then two weeks later, he passed away. It really broke my heart to lose him and I'm going to miss him so much. =o(

Yuperooni!! I'm back!! I've been, well, not online a whole lot lately. And when I am online, its to sell my SD girl stuffs cos I don't have anymore SD's. Man, you never really know how much stuff your doll has until you have to sell it all! X_X I'm just scratching the surface I have tons more to sell! Yikes! X_X

Anywho, I've been preoccupied with baby-stitting the new kitteh! Yes, we have a new kitten named Tigger. I may have mentioned him in a previous post, can't remember. Its been so long since I've posted. Anywho, he's out of control. XD He's CONSTANTLY getting into stuff OMG! >_< Crazy little kitteh!

I've been also pretty occpied with Tink!!!! XD Yup, with the money I got from selling my SD's, I bought a Unoa off Y!J and a couple weeks ago, I finally got her in the mail! I've decided that Tink is going to be a winking Lusis and Rani is going to be a regular Lusis. I'm not too sure if I'm still going to be using the L-bi faceplate, L-bi is cute, but I'm not sure he looks too girly even with a girly faceup. =/

Anywho, its SPAMTIME!! >=DDDD



Beck, my little Minsupia Yan. I luff her! <3




Tink!! <3


Tink and Beck, best buds!


Tink with Friends 2b Made pants I got from the NYC store. They fit excellently!




She poses SO well!


Beck in F2BM couture too!


Tink with my Mini Pullip Noir I totally forgot I had. Its the perfect size for her!

That's all for now! Sorry for all the spammage! ^^;

Okay, so, as you can guess from my title, I'm more than a little excited. XD RANI IS GETTING HER UNOA BODY SOON!!! *breathes* Alright, I'm okay now, just needed to get the outburst out. XD Anywho, I signed up with a differnt Y!J shopping service (because I am sick of rinkya >=( ) and I found a decently priced Unoa kit and bought it! The only downside to this: I had to sell Emma to get the funds. =( But, I decided, SD sized dolls are too big for me, living in my parents house, which is a small house, I've got some space issues and the minis take up lots less room. I will eventually get another Emma, but in mini form once Luts realeases a Minifee Soony.

But Omg, I'm soooo frickin' excited, I won't have to wait until November or December to see or hold a Unoa! I've never actually seem one in person, but I hear they are soooo much cuter in person than in photos. *bounces* Can'twait!!! Hurry up and ship her durnit!

Another thing I'm totally excited about, WB released a teaser trailer of the new Batman movie due out next summer, and I'm anticipating it even more now! It dosn't show any movie scenes, but it has sound clips, FREAKIN' AWESOME!! I never imagined Heath Ledger could make a good Joker, but from what I heard from the trailer, I really think he can pull it off.

*sigh* Anywho, I'm going to go and bounce around the room a little more or I'll never be able to sleep tonight. XD j/k

My oh my. God do I HATE hackers!!! >=( Hackers have hijacked my e-mail account, princessofkinmokuATyahooDOTcom. They changed my password on me and I can no longer log into my account. I am really infuriated by this, I have had to change all of my personal info and to make a long story short, yahoo cannot help me, so I am shit out of luck. >=( So that person is out there, probably impersonating me and there's nothing I can do about it. D= Grrrr.....

Anywho, I've got a Supia Yan on layaway. I've sold Carol, because I have made the VERY hard decision of starting to collect only minis and I am keeping one big girl, so Emma's staying. It was such a hard decision to make, though. I sold her on layaway, so, I am making payments on my Yan as the buyer for Carol makes payments. Her name is going to be Beck, I'm nameing all my minis after the Disney Fairies. ^_~ I LOVE the new Disney Fairies line. Tinkerbell was always my fave Disney character, but creating more fairies = love. XD Anywho, after I finish paying for Yan, I'm either going to save up for a body for Rani, my L-bi girl, or bring home Bess, a Minifee Lishe. I still MIGHT buy a BW Moon to be Data (from Star Trek. Yes, I'm a Star Trek geek. XD) my favorite character evar, from any show, seriously, I love him. My poor Emma looks lonely and I think she could use a bf. ^_~ Yes, I know Data has no emotions, but he could, you know, be Data from the movies where he has the emotion chip installed. ^_^

So, anywho. I CAN'T WAIT FOR BECK AND TINK TO GET HERE!!! *ahem* Sorry for that outburst, the anticipation is killing me. ^^;

In other news, my friend is being, well, very unfair right now. Its a long story, but basically, I'm a taxi cab to her and I was getting tired of it and spoke up and now she's giving me the silent treatment. I just makes me really upset that she dosn't seem to understand my point of view. Whatever.

Well, playing with my dolls always seems to cheer me up, so, I'm going to do a photoshoot with Emma. Expect a photospam. >=D

Yeah, two part-time jobs. I have to hold down two part-time jobs again because Big Y is NOT getting better and so, my financial situation is not getting better. I can barely pay my bills now, I had to borrow money from my parents this week. ;_;

So. . . I went to UPS yesterday for an interview, hopefully I got the job. Its a part-time Mon-Friday 11pm to 4pm parcel handler job. Yeah, the graveyard shift. Ick!!! But, hopefully it will turn into full-time and I can LEAVE Big Y!! =D Ihopeihopeihopeigetit!!!!!

Anywho. The wait for my Lusis is still killing me. ;_; I got some clothes in the mail the other day, the vans I bought for her, and a couple wigs. She already has quite the wardrobe goin'. (I used the leftover money from when I sold Roda. I sort of wish I hadn't and instead put the money in my checking account because shortly after I sold Roda is when Big Y started cutting my hours AGAIN!) I secretly keep wishing that the Unoas will start being posted maybe in October. *sigh* Maybe. . .

Okay, well, I got good and bad dolly news. I had to sell my Supia Roda. =( The good news is. . . I PREORDERED A UNOA LUSIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, sorry for my fangirling, but I can't contain it anymore. I'm finally getting my Lusis!!! =D =D I just couldn't wait another year and a half for the next preorder, so I caved and sold Roda so I can bring her home. I honestly don't know how I'm going to get through the 4-5 month wait. X_x Oh, dear Lord what a long wait, the wait is already killing me. I can't imagine how impatient I will feel a few months from now! O_o

My new girl's name will be Tink. She is going to have a winking and maybe a sleeping faceplate, high heel shoes and gads of clothes. Srsly, I've already started spoiling her and she's not even here yet, she's not even MADE yet. ^^;; She will definetly be a very spoiled little pixie. ^_~

Okay, going out of fangirl mode.

I went to New York City Saturday with Natalie. 'Twas quite awesome. Its the first time I've seen NYC since I was, I think, 4 or 5. Maybe 6. I was very little and I don't really remember the trip to well, partly because shortly after we arrived I came down with a fever and spent the rest of the visit either sleeping or throwing up. -_- Anywho, I loved NYC! I saw Chinatown, little Italy, Times Square, I rode on the subway which was quite a different experience, and I did lots of shopping. I'm definetly going again since there's a lot I didn't see that I wanted to. The Metropolitan Museam of Art in particular (always wanted to see that) and the Statue of Libertly, the Empire State Building and Central Park! Soooo much to do in such a big city!

Well, I'm off, I'm going to practice my sewing some more. ^_~

Okay, I was so bummed the other day about missing the Unoa preorder, but, DOOD!!! They're releasing SD sized Unoas!!!!! =D =D =D I saw scans on doa the other day, and I am LOVING Latea! This is good because, as much as I love the sculpt of the Unoa Mature minis, I could never really bond with mature minis. =/ I've owned 2 so far and ended up selling them. So, a 64cm Unoa is way better! Now if they can just be released at a better time financially for me and at a halfway reasonable price, that would be sweet.

I can't wait for tomorrow, I'm going to the beach with my BF and then the movies later with Natalie. *sigh* So excited!

Anywho, today is payday and I was able to buy batteries for a camera, soo, I'm off to take piccies of my girls! Expect a picspam soon! >=3

I'm bummed. Bummed majorly. I don't even think there's a word for how bummed I am. *crys*

Why, you ask? Well, here's my problem. It all started when my job cut all the part-timers' hours, (I'm part time) so instead of getting 35-40 hours a week including a full 8 hour day on Sunday (we get time and a half on Sundays), now I'm only getting 4 or 5 hours on Sunday and can only get a maximum total of 32 hours a week. And of course, they don't give the maximum so I get more like 25-30 hours a week. I'm making about $100 less per week now. SO NOT FREAKIN' COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

And you know what's coming up in July? Car taxes. So, that an extra $300 and some odd dollars I'm going to owe the town soon. Oh, and it gets better. . . the Unoa preorder that I've been waiting for since the last preorder (the last one was around Christmas of 2005, so of course, I didn't have the money for it then because I needed it to buy pressies for my family and friends) started yesterday. Yep. The Unoa preorder I've been waiting for for a year and a half. I swear, it couldn't have come at a worse time. I could cry right now. I know its just a doll, I realize its nothing to get upset over, but the combined stress of being s*#!&ed over by the company I bent over backwards for for 5 years, not having enough money for a lot of things I need right now, and all these bills coming all at once, is starting to get to me and I guess the Unoa preorder opening up last night was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Maybe I'll go play with my girls. They always cheer me up. That reminds me, I went to a meetup this past weekend. It was oodles of fun! I havn't been to a meetup in a long time! I can't wait to go to another. ^_^

I don't think I've posted any piccies of Rosalie yet (her new "shell" actually, she used to be a Musedoll Thalia). I swear, this girl is BREATHTAKING! I can't stop photographing her.

Just had to share pics since I havn't been able to spam Carol since I removed her old sueding. (She just would NOT hold a pose! ;_;) This is her modeling the Dollheart Valentine gown I bought recently. Enjoy the spam!












I LOVE HOT GLUE SUEDING!!! That is all.

Well, I'm posting now that I'm finally back to normal. For a while, after the first couple days after having my teeth pulled, My teeth and basically my whole mouth and jaw started aching and hurting soooo bad. ;_; I had Ice on my jaw every night. It must have been a delayed reaction because the first two days, they didn't hurt quite as bad. But I finally feel better now. I ate Sunchips yesterday!!! =D I can eat solids again, woot!!!

Anywho, I figured out how to hot glue suede and boy does it work wonders for poseability! Especially for Luts kicky-leg girls. ^^; Carol and Emma stand so well now! =D The only thing it didn't help with was Thalia's kicky legs. Even with the hot glue sueding, she will NOT stand. I figured out why, and it is that one thigh is longer than the other. I know I can sand her the ball joint of her thigh a bit to make them even so she can actually stand, but that's something I'm REALLY afraid of and I don't want to attempt that ever, I'm afraid of damaging her. So, I'm trading with someone on doa for a Supia Roda. Perhaps her new owner can sand her and make her able to stand without falling over. Its just not something I'm up to trying. It sucks, though, I will miss my Thalia. =o( Maybe if they fix the Musedoll body mold, I'll buy a Ciel or Re Che one day. One the bright side, I will have a Roda! Yay!!!

I got a letter from USPS saying that I passed the exam and that I am eligible to work there! Now I just have to wait for them to call me for an interview. Oh, I hate waiting. ;_; It couldn't have come at a better time, either, Big Y cut all of the Part timers' hours at my job soooo low, its rediculous. I'm making almost $100 less per week now, which is really infuriating. Oh well, I'll keep looking for a job because the post office might not call and I can't keep working for big y with those hours. I hope I find something soon. *sigh*

I am going to go see Pirates this Friday (hopefully) with my best bud, Natalie. I so can't wait. Johnny Depp as Captian Jack Sparrow is yuuuuumy! *drool* I saw Spiderman 3 last week and it was pretty good, though long and somewhat hard to follow. I liked it, though. But, I though Peter and MJ were supposed to get married in the end?

Ahhh!! Its so nice to be on vaca! Even if my mouth hurts and I have chipmunk cheeks. . .

I got my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday. I admit, its not as bad as I thought it'd be. I was in pain and pretty groggy yesterday, but I'm already starting to feel better! <3

I'm going to have to suede my Rosalie, she does not like to stand at all! I even tried putting her on a stand and she fell down and I almost had a heart attack. ^^; She's adorable, though. I'm spoiling her like crazy! I bought her the SD16 girl h.jelly&honey outfit set on Y!J today and I can't wait to get it so I can see how it looks on her! ^___^ I love h.naoto clothes, i only wish I could fit into the people-size h.naoto clothes. I'd have to lose a lot of weight to do that, though. ^^; But anywho, I also think I may have found the Musedoll Erato outfit set, so, my girl is getting spoiled rotten! ^_~

I'm still waiting to hear back from the post office, I took the exam last week. I'm so anxious to find out if I get the job or not. I really hope I do, if I can get my foot in the door and start there, I'd be all set! I would still have to keep my job at big y for a while because I'd be starting part-time and the night shift, but only for a while, then they'd probably start me full time! ^_____^

Ah, well. I'm getting drowsy again from the stinkin' meds so, I'm off to nap. ^_~
