| Part 2 of Panda Ann's European travels |
[Nov. 9th, 2008|07:23 pm] |
Prague!
Here she is with the Charles Bridge in the background - it was very cool! Unfortunately there was construction on it, which made it very crowded to cross, but we had to to get to...
The John Lennon wall! It was a little underwhelming, just on the side of an office(?) building, but we spent a long time reading all the things written on it :) Panda Ann wanted to graffiti her name on it, but I didn't have a Sharpie to give her. Maybe next time!
( just a couple extras ) |

| Panda Ann travels Europe |
[Oct. 12th, 2008|04:20 pm] |
So I haven't posted in a ridiculous amount of time even though I said that I would - go me! But I've been preparing to leave for Germany for a few months, and here I am now! I'm gone (and away from my dollies) for six. I've been facing quite the dilemma: I couldn't leave all of them behind but I couldn't bring any with me either. So Panda Ann stepped up to the plate!
Here she is, in front of the village tower in Herrnhut, Germany.
Next stops on her whirlwind tour include, but are not limited to the following locations: Berlin, Dresden, and Prague. |

| Okay, about time! |

I was honestly getting so worried about this girl! I've never had a package take more than two weeks on the dot to arrive, and it's been three since she was shipped. I was expecting her to arrive no more than a couple days apart from everyone else in the area, but a whole week? Seems kind of weird. I wasn't in panic mode yet, but I seriously thought she might be lost. I tend to be ridiculous in fearing the worst.
ANYWAY. She's here now!
Her name is Blitz, and she is way cuter than I ever expected. Waiting for her, I was kind of worried that I wouldn't like her as much as I did looking at everyone else's pictures, but I was completely wrong. She's my first dal, but even though I've seen Chuchi's, I didn't know quite what to expect anymore. But I was worried for nothing! She is so pretty, and I think I'm in love.
It's been forever since Dals came out, but I never expected myself to get one. Ever. Now I'm already thinking that Blitz needs a friend!
This doll collecting stuff is a long and slippery slope, my friends. |

I was inspired by a picture request thread on PS to try out fruits style on Veronica a few days ago. I'd never tried to put an outfit together before, but I think we pulled it off! She's so cute she could wear anything, though. :)

I spent like, two hours last night playing dress up with this (still unamed) girl. She looks good in everything! Don't know what her style is yet, though. I should've taken pictures, but it was late and I was tired.
These pictures were taken this morning before I left for work. There were seriously huge snowflakes falling when I took these, too. You can kind of see them in the background of the second picture. I should've taken more!
( let it snow... ) |

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."
1. The thing I hate most about my job is the dress code. I work in a home improvement store, so it's only jeans and t-shirts/hoodies, but I'm NOT a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl. I can't wear skirts or dresses, or even anything nice because it'll get ruined!
2. I wear socks to bed. Every night.
3. To me, my room = messy if my bed sheets are not perfectly straight, theres a pair of socks on the floor, and maybe my keys and cell phone have been thrown somewhere instead of tucked away. Anything more and I will not be able to anything without tidying first.
4. I've been watching lonelygirl15 since it first started (before it was fake!) and despite the fact that I hate it now, I can't stop!
5. I like to think that I'm super good at Guitar Hero, but really I can only do medium. Hard seems terrifying, but at least I can beat the guys who taught me how to play!
6. I own nearly fifty pairs of shoes.
7. I was fifteen before I learned how to snap my fingers, and I still can't whistle.
I tag... ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) cherry_cupcakes, kawaiilife, kakurenbo, xosweetlime, and I don't know who else? At least tagging only some people is better than none at all? I was always super bad at this! |

| Here she is! |
[Jan. 28th, 2008|07:42 pm] |
Got home today to find a ransom note in my mailbox!
It said I'd be able to pick this girl up tomorrow, but since it's supposed to snow (and I'm totally impatient), I took my chances and went today.
And she was there! Oren!
( more of this lovely girl under here :) )
She doesn't have a name yet, I'm still browsing for the perfect one. I want it to be classy, but not cliche, and a little bit eccentric. We'll have to see about that! I'm definitely open for suggestions.
Seriously, I am so excited to have this girl. I found a really good deal for her and could NOT say no. She's been on my want list for a long time, so this is really exciting! |

I'm expecting a new girl in a couple of weeks! She was shipped just this morning :)
But who is she? My lips are sealed until she gets here, but you should all know that it's VERY exciting! Or, at least I think so.
Just wanted to share!
Pictures will be posted when she gets here :D |

I'm back into the swing of things, really! Ellie looked cute last night so I snapped a couple of pictures :)
( just for fun ) |

| Playing catch up. |
[Dec. 27th, 2007|05:01 pm] |
I've been largely absent for the past few months. Seriously, I don't know why! I've been lurking just as much as always, but I haven't been making time to update or comment or converse. Life's been catching up with me. No excuse, but I've been busy and tired!
Excuses aside, I suppose it's time to catch up.
( some long lost photos, some stories... ) |

| something sweet |
[Aug. 31st, 2007|05:28 pm] |
I got some of the 30 days rement, and I am so happy! I lucked out and got the cutest little outfit. I would have been happy with any of it, though. And I know, I know! Anja has been the only girl getting any attention lately, but it suits her so well!
( something a little sweet )
I'm super glad that I got out to take pictures yesterday. It was sunny and beautiful, but today it started raining... it's not horrible weather, but only okay. And it's not going to be nice again for a while yet.
And oh! I can't wait for my Kstarr order... does anyone know exactly when they're shipped in September? I know the middle of the month, but not exactly when. |

| be prepared |

Just as I said I might be, I was in Victoria over the weekend. It was beautiful for the most part and I saw a lot of cool things. Of course, I took Anja with me. She didn't get very much camera time last weekend so I had to make it up to her. Hopefully this update will make up for my lack of substance lately. Be warned: there are a lot of pictures!
( lots more of the beautiful Anja... )
Would you believe that I took more than 100 doll shots over the weekend? And that's not including the bad ones that I deleted on the spot... the 100 are the ones that I kept! |

| Despite having all the time in the world... |
[Aug. 8th, 2007|10:07 pm] |
I was in Calgary over the weekend, and told myself that if I brought a doll with me, I would take lots of pictures and have a really exciting post to put up when I got back. So I took my doll and my camera... and came back with like, three shots. Anja had a fun time hanging out in my purse, though.
I'll hopefully be in Victoria next weekend though. Photo opportunities there will be far more frequent, I'm sure. |

I know that it's been a while... real life has caught up with me and I've been dealing with a lot on my plate for the past couple/few weeks. I decided to just take a break tonight! I plugged myself into my iPod and just got away to take photos. It was fun :)
( what I chase won't set me free ) |

| best birthday gift ever |
[Jun. 29th, 2007|06:10 pm] |
So, my best friend was here about a half hour ago to drop something off for me. It's my birthday tomorrow but I won't see her so she was here tonight.
She's heard a lot of complaining from me in the past re. people who put me down for my hobby, don't encourage me, etc. and so she decided to do this for me!
( all sorts of things to read! ) |

I've been super sick since Monday (viral meningitis for the curious - it sucks) and confined to my bed for the most part. I've been bored out of my mind! Thankfully I've had a very considerate helper :)
( need more applejuice? )
Ellie's been chillaxin with me lately. I don't know what it is about her dinosaur suit, but it just makes me happy! Not to mention the fact that she's totally cute when she wears it :) |

The weather has been beautiful lately, and I just keep finding all these neat places around my house to take pictures... I can't help myself! |

I use my pullip cards as bookmarks, and yesterday at school I was reading a book with Paja's card in front of me, sitting on my desk. My english teacher walked by, paused, picked it up, looked for a moment, and said 'freaky!' She actually thought that sweet, serene, sleeping Paja on the card was scary! So today, urged by a friend of mine, I took Ellie to school.
( How can she still think that this face is scary? )
Obviously, some people just can't appreciate beauty ;) |
