2014

2014 was the year I found home.

It's hard to put feelings into words, so I'll try representing them with images. These past six months of no updates to the blog have one reason: I was, probably, living too much.

And of that, I have no regrets.

If my 2014 could be grasped and made into snapshots, it would look a bit like this...

 First time wearing Lolita out in the streets of Harajuku.

Harajuku food & shopping. Special mention: Ten kara PURA! (Heavenly Tempura from Tendon Tenya)

And I finally let it go on Halloween, lol. 

Finally I got to dress however the @#$% I wanted without anyone staring or screaming profanities at me. 

Design Festa. The most incredible event I've ever seen.

I suddenly lost a lot of weight. But no worries, 'cause it's all back now LOL 

Ah, now I understand how I got the weight back HAHAHA

Made friends more important than life.

And I went to Disney Sea!

My Christmas dinner was unexpected.

Yet my Christmas spirit, untainted.

I prayed.

... and love answered.

And finally, on the 1st day of 2015, I visited a shrine to offer my first respects of the year.

2015, you have some pretty high standards to follow.

Thank you for reading! Let's rush into 2015 together!

Pink Hello Kitty Birthday Party! ୨୧ᕼᗩᑭᑭY ᗷIᖇTᕼᗞᗩY୨୧

Happy birthday to me!

Last March 21st was my birthday. Because my father's birthday lands on the 23rd, the 22nd we organized a small party with family and friends to celebrate both birthdays.

Feliz cumpleaños a mí!

El pasado 21 de Marzo fue mi cumpleaños. Como el de mi papá es el 23, quedamos en que el 22 hacíamos una fiesta con familia y amigos para celebrar ambos cumpleaños.

Wasn't my Hello Kitty cake just perfect? A neighbor from the block makes them! She's an amazing cook! O no que mi torta de Hello Kitty era la perfección pura? Una vecina de la cuadra las hace! Es increíble cómo cocina!

We had lots of sushi. Yum! Comimos mucho sushi. Ñam!

Happy with my tiara. I don't think I'll ever act my age. Feliz de la vida con mi tiara. Creo que nunca asumiré mi edad.

I hope you enjoyed this short and sweet post. When's your birthday? How are you going to celebrate?

Espero que hayan disfrutado este cortito pero lindo post. ¿Cuándo es tu cumpleaños? ¿Cómo vas a celebrarlo?

A new beginning

Hi!

If you usually visit the blog, you will notice a big, sad "RE-LOCATION" post now occupies what once was Kiwivanilla.

For whatever reason, I've changed names. It's not as dramatic as I make it sound, though. I took this opportunity to spiffy everything up with nicer graphics and a less-crumpled layout. Let me know what you think! <3 And please change your links to:

http://kawaiisheepie.blogspot.com/

To commemorate this fresh start, here are some selfies from the other day. I was preparing a make-up tutorial, and of course took pictures.

By the way, if there are any video editing programs that you might recommend for a Mac user, please let me know! ( ´ ▽ ` )

OK, now I'll leave you alone with my face.

And of course, after all that fooling around with the Instax Mini 8 and using it as a photo prop, here is an actual picture taken with that camera!

Good news

Hello sheeplets!

Another long while, wasn't it?

Long whiles with no updates should be all over now, since I...

Hola ovejitas!

Cuánto tiempo, no?

Largos lapsos sin actualizar deberían ser historia, ahora que...

I graduated! Me gradué!

So 4 pounds of flour later I can say I'm officially done with university! Which of course is telltale of how old I'm getting but no comments on that. If anyone asks, I'm still 18 years old, ok?

Yeah I know I list my age in the "About" section on the left. Don't get sassy with me.

I feel really relieved yet somehow extremely worried about not being a student anymore.

On the ending note of this incredibly short post, I'm going to start writing a new one as soon as I hit "Publish"!

Dos kilos de harina después puedo decir que finalmente me gradué de la universidad! Por supuesto, esto les da una idea de lo vieja que me estoy poniendo pero sobre eso, sin comentarios. Para el que pregunte, sigo teniendo 18 años, ¿ok?

Sí, ya sé, mi edad la clamo orgullosamente en el sector "About" de la izquierda. No me griten.

Me siento muy aliviada y sin embargo súper preocupada de no ser más una estudiante.

Pero para terminar este post mega corto, les cuento que me voy a seguir bloggeando incluso después de apretar el botón de "Publicar"!

Cat Ears and Actual Kittens | Orejas de Gato y Gatitos

Woah, slacking off blog duty again!

I'm really sorry you guys. All I have to update with are a few old-ish (month-old) pictures :c

I haven't been really going out except a few lunches with family. But that's about it. I have missed probably every event I ever wanted to go to this December ;_;

But as you know I will graduate by the end of the month. So yeah, go me. Go college. So much study. wow.

Wow, otra vez olvidándome del blog!

Mil perdones, gente. Lo único que tengo para actualizar son unas pocas selfies que ya tienen un mes :c

No estuve ni viendo la luz del sol, con la excepción de un par de salidas con mi familia. Pero eso fue todo. Me perdí de todos los eventos a los que quería ir en Diciembre ;_;

Pero bueno, como ya saben, voy a estar graduada para fin de mes. Vamos Abi. Vamos la facultad. Cuanto estudio. wow.

Last month I did a cute coordinate wearing these kitty ears. This is the product from Taobao in case you want to buy them! They come in a combination of gold or silver, pearls or little faux diamonds.

El mes paso armé un coordinado usando estas orejitas de gato. Acá está el link al producto de Taobao en caso de que quieran comprarlas! Vienen en una combinación de dorado o plateado, y perlas o diamantitos.

And because I was wearing cat ears, I grabbed my feline resident and included her in a picture!

Y como estaba usando orejitas de gato, invité a la felina presente a que salga en una foto!

Maggie (the cat) was adopted from a shelter by my boyfriend in June. And thus began the story of how I became a cat person.

She's an adorable calico with chimera-like markings. She eats a lot and meows in the morning.

Maggie (la gata) fue adoptada de un refugio local por mi novio en junio. Y de repente me pasé al bando gato.

Es una tricolor bellísima con rasgos como de quimera. Come como un cerdo y hace "miau" por la mañana.

She also knows exactly when I'm taking pictures of her. So she always looks dramatic.

It's amazing how much happiness this little kitty has brought us! Once we can settle down, move somewhere and know we can stay there, we'll adopt many more cats, I'm sure. They all deserve a chance to be loved and have a warm and happy home.

(so adopt, please don't buy)

I'm hearing Maggie stirring up trouble in the bedroom. So I better go check. I hope you can bear with me a little longer until I can blog freely again! c:

Thank you for all your lovely blog comments, and I will return them soon! ;_; promise!

Ella sabe exactamente cuándo le estoy sacando fotos. Siempre me pone caras dramáticas.

Es increíble toda la alegría que nos trajo esta kitten! Una vez que podamos mudarnos a algún lugar y saber que esa va a ser nuestra residencia permanente, vamos a adoptar muchos más gatitos, seguro. Todos merecen una oportunidad para recibir amor y tener un hogar calentito y feliz.

(así que adopten, no compren)

Ya la escucho a Maggie rompiendo cosas en el dormitorio, así que mejor me voy a fijar. Espero que me puedan soportar un ratito más hasta que pueda volver a bloggear libremente c:

Y gracias por todos sus hermosos comentarios! Los voy a devolver en cuanto pueda! ;_; promesa!
