Blog Update - Trip to Venice Carnival

Hello everyone ♪

It's been quite some time since I posted on here. I'm really sorry for not blogging but idk I just didn't feel like and I've been so busy. However I'm REALLY planning to post more on here again.

A lot of stuff happened since February. There will be a few update posts. Let's start with Venice. After my holidays in the Netherlands I went to the Carnival of Venice for 2 days with my classmates. We went there by train which was horrible. The trip was nice though.

Anyways. Pictures here!

In the hotel

Cute jewellery shoppe!

Kawaii Jelly Bags!

Cute lace collars!

Neat costumes!

Yeah so that was my trip to Venice in pictures!

Love,

NL Trip Feb '12

Hello there!

It's been a week since I got back from NL and I didn't have time to blog about it yet.

But here we go!~

☆彡☆彡☆彡

I've been to the Netherlands from 3rd Feb to 12th. I stayed at my friend Mika's place and got to meet the people he lives with! It was fun! We also cooked nearly every day so I got to know some new Japanese recipes and such!

♪(ﾉ´∀｀*)ﾉ

I travelled to Amsterdam, Leiden, Den Haag and Utrecht so I've been to quite some places during my stay. I also got to meet my friends Irene, Mali and Gerben.

☆彡☆彡☆彡

Anyways here are the pics I wanted to share!

Kawaii kitten handluggage trolley! I should've bought it.

Cute beads shop!

Bunny in petshop

All-you-can-eat the Japanese way!

Frozen canals in Leiden! It's been really cold outside.

Awesome vintage shoppe in Amsterdam!

Lovely lilac chandelier from Xenos. Waaant!

Cute pink kitschy store! Loved it!

Mali, Irene and my drinks!

Lace and trims everywhere! Went crazy there. XD

Irene, me and Mali!

Awesome pancake-ish thingies in Amsterdam!

☆彡☆彡☆彡

Well that's my trip in pictures!

I still have to take pics of all the stuff I bought there.

I had a lot of fun there watching nice movies, going out (once!), shopping and generally spending time with amazing people. I hope I can go back there someday again! /miss

Netherlands Day 7-11

Hihii~

This is the last part of my journey to the Netherlands. I want to go back already! （；´д｀ ）

On the seventh day we went to Den Haag~ Irene introduced me to lots of cheap-ish shops! I love cheap shops in NL. We had lunch at Dutch fries with peanut sauce, mayonaise and onion. Love it! (σ^▽^)σ



We ate dessert at a place called Cheescake Company! I had summer berries cheesecake~




In a side street we found a cute Asian accessories shop! I bought quite some stuff there. (●＞ｖ＜●）

Here's what I got:

Crafty stuff and lovely stickers~



Cute drippy strawberry keychain mirror and a nice cross necklace! ♪(ﾟ▽^*)ﾉ⌒☆



Lovely ear piercings and a sailor-esque brooch~



☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡


On Monday we stayed at home playing games on the Playstation and doing crafty stuff~ I drafted some patterns for bigger sized BJDs.

That day I also had to send away some stuff I bought in NL because my luggage would've been overweight if not. Lol~ (*^_^;)


☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡


Tuesday was a day I've been really looking forward to! I met up with my friends Gerby and Mika and we went on a shopping spree in Amsterdam.
I kinda regret not bringing the cam to that trip..

I bought some nice cardigans at River's Island. God I LOVE that shop! Still need to take pics~

After some time walking through Amsterdam, to several clothes, books and shoe stores we had dinner at some random asian-esque whatever place! The food there was.. okay.
I had some weird soup with egg and rice and fried rice with chicken.


After that we thought it'd be fun to go have some cocktails at a bar. Of course I had to take the cocktail with the most ridiculous name ever: Red Panties.
(>ω<＊)ﾉ ♥


I had lots of fun that day! Was nice to meet people you only know via the interwebz in person!~
σ(ﾟｰ^*)


☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡


Time passed by so quickly and it was the 13th already. That day I had to pack my suitcase and get some cheese prezzies! My plane left at 9.40 pm-ish.


While waiting at the airport I got myself some iced café latte at Starbucks.


My plane had some delay and I arrived at around 11.30 pm-ish in Munich.
I finally got home at 3 am. Ugh~~ Exhausing trip!


☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡☆彡


I really enjoyed my stay in NL and it was so nice meeting new people there! I also really liked the landscape: FLATNESS! haha~ However I want to go there again sometime!

Thanks for reading!

Love,
Pato ♥

Netherlands Day 4-6

Hihii~

On the 4th day of my journey to the Netherlands we went to Amsterdam!
Sadly I didn't bring my cam and my mobile's battery died so I couldn't take many pictures! (*´ο`*)=3

When we arrived there we went into a cheese shop!


Lol so typical Dutch! (＾□＾*)




We also had the most delicious aiju kurimu with whipped cream flavour!


And afterwards we went to the most amazing fabric store I've ever been to! I bought so much stuff thereeee~~ (*´ο`*)=3

Here's what I got in Amsterdam:


Cutesy Disney bags and random stuff

Friday was one of the days I was really looking forward to!
We had a high tea dolly meet~~

However I went to the Haagse Markt with Steff to buy some fabrics and lace. It was really cool there as well (ノ^_^)ノ

Here's my loot!


Cute satin ribbons, lace, pompom trim and some fabrics~


Afterwards we went to the high tea place near the beach in Den Haag! The weather was acting kind of weird. Windy and rainy. Glad we were insideee~

It was soo cool to meet some people I've only knows from dolly communities in real life! ☆ﾐ(o*･ω･)ﾉ I had a great time!~~


Now doesn't that look lovely?


My redone Ichigo Pullip by solarsenshi being the strawberry-ish cream topping~



Of course I brought Rielle as well~



Maaike gave us the sweetest presents ever! Totally adorable, innit? ♪

After the high tea some of us went to Irene's place and we had a singstar x pizza party! So much fun ~~ ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

On Saturday we didn't really do much. We just went out doing groceries and buying some stuff in Den Haag. Of course I went crazy while shopping..
（￣ー￣）

We spent the rest of the day doing crafty stuff and chilling around~


Lots of beads, funny fox tails and stationery!
