Major life updates: Change of universities, Cosplay, Styles & BJDs [pic heavy]

I know I haven't posted in reaaally long time.. 

But I just hadn't any motivation or time or something to take care of my blog.. Which is what I want to change now. I miss blogging so I decided to start again! 

Well, many things have happened in the past months, the biggest thing is that I decided to change from Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf to University Duisburg-Essen. That's why I am now studying "East Asian Studies" and sociology (♥). Fortunately I'm not in the first semester now but in the third (would have been the fith if I had stayed in Düsseldorf).. But there are maaaany things I have to catch up with. That should be now problem though because I finally am motivated again! 

Studies here seem to be much more fun and there is a goal I have to work for: 

Next year around september I'm going to study in Japan for a year!! 

Finally that will be possible for me - also because it is required to go abroad in my university course now.

I know a lot of hardships will come up with that... 

Most hard and important thing is that I have to leave my beloved fiancee behind.. ;3; But she will be trying her hardest to visit me so we're staying positive!
And it's a once-in-a-lifetime-chance. 

Moreover I only have time to dress up properly in Gyaru for parties or something... Otherwise I'm too exhausted to do anything. 

But looking at pictures from around last year I start to really miss it! I need to get my ass up, haha.. 

Also, wanting to dress in Dansou and Gyaru is nearly the same these days so I need to balance that.. 

But firstly here are some (very lazy) outfit and make-up pictures I missed to post since June:

As you might see, I'm currently in the need of proper lashes...
But I'll get some after my birthday this weekend I guess. Important and stuff.
And most of the time circle lense were to tiring for my eyes.. I hate that, ugh. 

Also I need to use my extensions more often.. haha. 

That's what I've been up to regarding styling the last months. 

Moreover in the middle of september Connichi 2013 took place in Kassel again and I wore two new cosplays I'm pretty proud of!
Those are Eren Jaeger from Shingeki no Kyojin and Sitri from Makai Ouji.

So here's Eren: 

Those are with my amazing girlfriend as Levi. ♥
(I used our shooting pictures because I don't really like my styling from Connichi, the first time I wore it...)

We still need to prepare our 3D Gears...! Can't wait for that. 

And here is Sitri: 

Also with Aiji as William. ♥

I'm happy that I could wear them this year - usually we had planned them for next year's spring season...

But we got ourselves together and prepared them during August! 

The last kind of interesting update is, that my BJD practice head from Doll Family H and my Soom Little Gem Turb arrived!! 

Here are my two babies~ 

My turb called Locien! He's an elf demon, as you can see one of my grail dolls. ♥
I did his face ups (make up) all by myself and am pretty proud of it. :3 

The last two amazing pictures are taken by Aiji.

That's Ray, bassist of a Visual Kei band and a head only on Aiji's body, haha. 

His face up was my very first face up attempt. 

At the moment I'm thinking about opening a face up comission "store" with good prices because I'm still a beginner... 

Well, that's it for the moment. 

From now on I'll try to post frequently again and keep this blog updated with all kinds of stuff!

Dojaku #23 - AnE Cosplay & Jiji-Hime

Hey gals!

So finally here's my blogpost about that small convention last sunday.
I've been more than busy with university until now, sorry! n___n

On saturday we went to Shinpeis place together with Aiji's little sister.
But before we went to Dortmund because Jiji needed some new hime-shoes!
And so we spent quite a lot of time at Jumex...

In the evening we made lasagne by ourselves (okay, mostly shinpei did it, but I helped! xD) and it was sooo delicious!!
Unfortunately Rito couldn't come in the evening as well, her bus didn't come.
But we were tired anyway, so we went to bed early.

On sunday we got up pretty early to get ready to go to Dortmund again!
I put on my Rin Okumura cosplay (Ao no Excorcist) again, which I also wore at Connichi last year.
I love it sooo much. ♥
In the train we finally met Rito, who also took some awesome photos of us on that day.
The convention itself was reeeeeeaaaally boring.. -w-

Me on the left and Shinpei on the right~ 

One of my favourite pics! ♥ 

Many creepy people came to me and wanted to hug me... xDD

But there were also some quite nice ones~
It's just my personal problem that I never know how to act towards strangers..
I'm really awkward when it comes to this.

My princess Jiji wore an amazing Hime-outfit on that day! :3 ♥

Take a  look!

She was soo cute!!

After the con I changed in the toilet. xD

And then we went back to the mainstation, ate some thing and went back home..

And now uni is really stressing me out.. u__û

It's so much work, regarding there are four exams at the end of the semester..
Two in Japanese and two in Social Studies..gaaaah. All that's in my head is vocabulary, kanji and statistic methods right now... :/

Make-up haul on the 1st of April & hedgehogs

Hey gals!

I know today is sunday.. but Aiji and me went to the trainstation because we went out of shower gel and make up.. and there is an dm market, which is always open.
And because we saved some money we could finally buy new stuff!

This is my stuff:

1. Photo Finish liquid foundation Nr.020 Rosy Beige by Catrice
2. Allround concealer by Catrice
3. Duo Blush Nr.050 Apricot Smoothie by Catrice
4. Nude lipstick Nr.54 Honey Bee by essence 

New showergel, new shampoo, new deo (omg I love "glam up" so much! **) and shavers.

It's an "indian" showergel with mulberry and lotus flower. :3

Here's what's Aiji's and mine: 

Nailpolish remover and some cleaning things for our faces. ^^

And also Maybelline's "Illegal Length" mascare we were interested in. 

And so I had to try the new mascara immediately!
This is the result: 

This is what it looks like.

My eye (very simple casual make up) before.

..and after the usage! 

You can clearly see that it works! ♥

I think the mascara is totally worth it's money in my opinion. 

It's also a very deep black I like very much. 

I can't wait to see the result when I hadn't some mascara on before. 

Now on to the lipstick!

It looks really dark.. I was a bit afraid.
But I loved the result in the end! 

Strange pic of my lips as usual..

And with the lipstick on! ♥ I like it. 

I also bought some new blush because I wanted some orange, which seems to be really important in Ora Ora styling. I always thought it was weird but now, when I'm trying styles which aren't expected to be cute I think it's a must have instead of pink blush.
And I found a bright orange at Catrice! 

I think I'll stick to the lighter tone though.
But you can also mix them, which Aiji tried later.. xD

I'm really happy with what I got today and I can't wait to try everything out 'for real' in my styling.
I love make up! ** ♥

We went also to a fair for exotic animals and reptiles today with Aiji's father and her sister.
Sammy, Aiji's sister wanted to buy a new rat there.. but it came differently.
We saw some "Igeltanrek" (sorry I don't know the English word xD) who are kind of a  very cute, small hedgehog which you can keep at home in a terrarium (yes it is legal and okay to keep them like that!) 

(Sorry for the bad quality - iPhone pics!) 

They are soo cute and very curious about everything! And they're very.. how can I say? brave and not scared of anything. Although they have very sharp teeth they're kind and tranquil. :3 

...Aaaah, tomorrow university starts again! >w<
It's my second semester Japanese and Social Studies.. I'm only halfway motivated though. XD
It's so exhausting and I'm such a lazy person. lol
