Short Post Because I’m Tired


Sunday January 30, 2011   

I cannot shake this lethargy today! :drops: I even got up and built some IKEA furniture, went out on a grocery run, and drank a bunch of caffeine! :deco13: I ate nothing but healthy snacks and fresh fruit, then a bunch of protein, NOTHING worked. I’m still feeling really lethargic, bah! :mad: Must be lack of sleep. So I’m going to bed at 10:00. Well, I’ll at least try. :deco16:

I tried to take a nap. I feel I failed though Mike said I was asleep for 2 hours it didn’t seem like it even happened. :?:

SOYJOY were on sale 10 for $10 today at the supermarket

I really want this MAC lipstick, Morange :drops:. I love my current shades but baaaaah :deco13: my New Year’s Resolution is getting hard~~ With H&M putting out SPRING STUFF :deco1: already.

I just finished doing my taxes too, and on top of getting back what we usually get, we get an extra $800 thanks to some Recovery Tax Break thing :!?: ^_^ I’ll be getting that back before my 3-month spending freeze is over! :;_;: KILLING MEEEEEEEEE, HAHAHAHAAAA lolol :x

But I won’t break! I’m gonna stick to this because I’ve GOT to break the habit of just buying shit and never wearing/using/eating it. Seriously, went through my closet this week and donated so many things I only wore once! :angry: No excuse for that sort of behavior! :x At least not for myself, I don’t like that. It’s selfish to waste so much. Ah, so, tax return goes into savings. Come April it’ll be my birthday and I’ll use a little of it to get myself a fun gift :celebrate:

Alright it’s nearly 10pm. Here’s some outfit snaps from the week~~

Knit dress with thick floral tights. I love the pattern on these but they’re a bit long so they bunch at the ankles sometimes, LOL, I hate being 5′1″!! Even a “small” is meant for 5′5″ girls sometimes :?: :;_;:

ぶーーーーーーーー Monday :cry:

    • jenny says:

      YOU’RE FIRST!!! I didn’t announce this post yet b/c I just went to bed, and I think everyone just waits for my blog urls on twitter/tumblr, so I know you’re my friiiiiiend b/c you check anyway \:D////

      It’s true, probably just winter shittin on me finally =_=;;

  2. Ash says:

    Is it just me or is the weird weather VA’s been having affecting energy levels? I feel so drained with the schizo temperatures. (I’m automatically assuming you live in VA for some reason… lol… when you could just as easily be in MD or DC. I think it’s my automatic desire to have everyone live as close to me as possible? I DON’T EVEN KNOW. Pretend this didn’t happen. XD)

    Loving your shoes in the first coord. I need those in my closet~ ♥

    • jenny says:

      I think it could be the weather too (I live in the DC metro area though, MD side :) but it’s all basically the same! I love these shoes! I forgot I had them, I bought them a few years ago :X

  3. Thao says:

    Putting money into your savings will be good. Just think of the small interest growing on it. That’s like at least a couple of Soyjoy bars’ worth. :D Sometimes I wish I can just finish school and get a job already since college feels like a constant money drain. *sigh*

    I’m about your height too and I feel your pain…

    • jenny says:

      Seriously~ and saving up means better & bigger things :P But in the day to day of boring indoor winter life the idea of shopping is so enticing!

      Ugh school, I remember using ALL my old college tax returns on books. Twas so depressing =_=;;

  4. Cindii says:

    Yay for the extra money. Stay strong!!

    I’ve yet to try soyjoy. They look yummy. Where do you get them?

  5. zoraida says:

    you hate being 5′1″!!!!!!!

    try being 4′8″!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    lol just kidding. we can fit in pockets yay :D

    • jenny says:

      *cannot imagine* Did people randomly try to lift you, pick you up in high school?? I fuckin’ hated that, I think that’s why it happened so much hahahaaa

      • zoraida says:

        OH MY GOD YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! and then they would flippin’ swing me around like WTF WHO ARE YOU???? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME??? /cries forever/

        One time in drama class, this guy picked me up and put me on his shoulders and I was traumatized for life.

  6. Lili says:

    I totally understand your problem with tights! I remember that I had to buy sweater tights from the children’s section because the normal women’s ones didn’t fit me. Dx

    Really love that second outfit~

  7. Jenny says:

    hope you feel better soon! :D

  8. Sah says:

    Hi Jenny! Well, I so understand your problem with money. Im actually saving some money every month, lets see if it works (>.

  9. Tori says:

    I think the lethargic thing was going around yesterday~ both me & Mum were feeling that way too! Maybe the bleh winter weather?
    That lipstick is divineee~ you’re so lucky you’re getting back so much money, haha! XD I think you should bend a littleee bit & buy yourself something nice~ you deserve it after all! ;Dyy *is a bad influence*

    • jenny says:

      Hahaha you’re SO bad!!! But I can’t. If I even break once it’s over & I’ll quit and I’ll just feel disappointed in myself =_=;. I try to stay focused on needing trip money for next summer x_x;;

  10. Stacey says:

    I’ve been really tired too all of this week, and even today a new week begins and I don’t feel refreshed at all from my weekend. So I know 100% how you feel. It sucks u___u”

    On the other hand, WOAW LIPSTICK! I like the color it looks gorgeous!!

  11. Ham-Cham says:

    You’re so stylish * O * haha just wanted to say that = U =

    also… I really need to stop buying things I won’t use, too. – -
    I haven’t bought much lately, but… still… my closet is packed to the max and and don’t even wear a lot of the things in there, ahh
    T T
    but it’s hard ; _ ;
    good luck to you~

  12. Bianca says:

    lol that monday gif at the end of the post LOL! i know how you feel about spring stuff…luckily its out of the way for me to go to the loop most of the time. I live northside and work is westside so i never need to actually go through the loop to see anything tempting! cant believe they put stuff out already tho!

    and yes sadly i went into sephora this weekend and was like “ME WANTY..;_; huu huu”

  13. Jenii says:

    Same here.

    Spent the entire weekend at home, not doing ANYTHING but watching Bebop XD and wasting time on the internet. The kotatsu doesn’t help either DX Pretty sure it’s just a winter thing (in my case anyway), really don’t want to go out into the cold!

    Oh oh! I almost forgot! I got your postcard sometime last (last??) week! Sorry for not letting you know sooner but THANK YOUUUUUUUU! Loverly DC night scene :D

    BE STRONGGGGG!! TRIP TO GERMANYYYYYYYY!!

  14. mika says:

    Such a lovely shade of lipstick, I don’t know if I have the courage to go orange, but it looks really good on the girl in that picture.

    Love your outfits, especially the one with the maxi dress!

    • jenny says:

      I have a lipgloss sorta in this shade I need to try before I commit to buy, right? I can ALWAYS try it on in stores though yaay yaay and then walk away LOL

  15. hiika says:

    you’re 5′1???!! No waaaaaaay!!! You look taller than that in your pictures! And I can’t believe we’re the same height~~ ^^ Small people ftw! hahahahaha I love your knit dress outfit – the tights are so stinking cute! And everyone usually starts feeling more tired in the winter – it’s the whole sunlight/seasonal syndrome thing I can’t remember the name of -fail- If it’s only once in a while, I wouldn’t worry about it~ But if it’s really severe and you get really lethargic and/or depressed like in the winter months, you should maybe think of investing in one of those sunlight simulator lamps. They’re basically what they sound like – a lamp that’s uber powerful and is basically a mini sun in your house!!! ^_^ Oh and good job with persevering with your spending freeze – I’m cheering for you!

    • jenny says:

      It’s called Seasonal Affective Disorder also known as SAD (lol.) I used to take SAM-e for it but in recent years I haven’t had any symptoms. It’s not that, because it’s only physical and I usually get the heavily emotional side effects but thank you. A lot of people don’t know about SAD. :)

  16. Ah, it’s just one of those days… I hate feeling lazy, and being even more lazy to do anything about it. xD

    Hang in there, Jenny!! It was hard for me to not spend money when I was saving up for Japan, but I felt glad in the end that I did. I’m sure you will too after your 3-month spending freeze! ^__^

    Adorable outfits, btw! I like how you incorporated a maxi dress into an outfit for cold weather. :3

    • jenny says:

      Thank you for the encouragement! You’re so right! I want to travel varied again and by next summer I can even just holding out these 3 months helps a lot!

  17. Firipa says:

    hello!

    that is myuu from ameba! i’m her friend, she’s so lovely, really nice gyaru! i was so surprised to see her on your blog, i just had to comment (after reading ur blog for such a long time this is my first comment XD)

    i want the morange too!! it was recommended by ena matsumoto as emoda’s spring/summer make up. did u see it?

    anyways, since it is my first time commenting, i have to say that i really like ur blog and the way u write. and u’re super cute! i will keep being a faithful reader ;)

    oh, and good luck with the spending freeze! i know it’s terrible, but we need some control once in a while, isn’t it?

    • jenny says:

      OMG the internet feels like such a small world sometimes! Yes! I love her blog, she’s my silent inspiration!! You don’t think she’ll mind this image? I can remove it, but she best displayed this color’s wonderfulness! I thought it was the same “coral” type color represented by EMODA too, mhmm *nods*

      And I can’t believe you’re a silent blog reader of mine XD I’m honored :) I just glimpsed your blog, it’s so lovely and full of inspiration too :D

      Ah, you’re so right, we really need some control sometimes and this is definitely mine.

      • Firipa says:

        Nah, I don’t think she would mind at all. Myuu herself posts many photos of momoko or carolina’s blogs. I think she would be happy to hear she’s your inspiration. Cuz me too! I told her the same thing and she’s super sweet. I always check her blog. It’s so hard to find the blogs of real gyarus that aren’t famous or shop staff, cuz most of them don’t post face pictures or many interesting things…

        And thank you for checking my blog, I just started it, so I’m very honored to know you think it’s inspirational! I’m really just writing it for myself, but maybe someday someone will read it and find something useful they like.

        I shall be going to tokyo in 2 months, it’s my 2nd time too, so i will hunt down your posts about your trip and make a list of places to visit :D if you have any recommendations that you didn’t write about, i would be very gratefull if you could share, haha!

        Anyways, please keep this amazing blog! And give us some bath powders reviews, I absolutely love it! Although I only use it once a week, I wish I had time to do it daily ;)

        • jenny says:

          It’s so true! It’s hard to find non-famous or employed by a shop girls blogs. Just fashionable girls in general, you know?

          I love your attitude with your blog, I think it’s the best way to think about it. To write for yourself. I think of my blog as my “scrapbook” in a way.

          I’ll try to think about what I haven’t wrote about my Japan trip. Do you know what you’ll be wanting to do? Ah, you can always just ask me questions, I don’t mind! :D

          Oh you want bath salt reviews? Ah ok heehee, I have some, tagged “bath” I think? Or “onsen” but I was gonna do a short Bison-only review soon because I’ve been better at taking photos of the salts now thanks to my phone being with me haahaa

  18. Becky says:

    Seriously! I have the same issue right now. I want to save but I walked into H&M the other day & could not resist buying this white lace dress that’s perfect for retro girlie style. How can one resist shopping when the new season is coming?!?!
    I love your maxi dress in the second outfit~~

  19. Amelia says:

    You’re 5′1? I always thought you were a bit taller (~photo illusion I guess~) I love your outfit with the bowler hat.

    • jenny says:

      In the few photos with friends it’s crazy obvious. Usually I’m solo in pics bc I don’t wanna post many other ppl since it’s a public blog and they might not like it XD

  20. Linda says:

    zomg! h&m is putting out spring stuff already?! nuuuuuuuuuuuuu LOL
    weeee~ love your outfits!

  21. Fatiha says:

    it really does look like you’re trying very hard not to break your spending freeze… ^_^ but it’ll all benefit you in the end!!
    And “Morange” really is a nice color!!

  22. Mai says:

    What did you get from IKEA XD? My friends and I LOVE that place, it’s like a black hole for our money (along with Target). Your outfits are really cute :D! I agree though, I’m not sure why clothing stores make tights/pants so long because even though I’m 5′7″, some things are still too long for me and I KNOW there are tons of girls shorter than me D:

  23. Courtney says:

    Wow, you have some conviction still sticking with your goal! Congrats!! I am also hitting a breaking point…I have no money but I can’t remember the last time I treated myself, so I just want to buy those sechuna clothes I linked on my blog….
    ANYWAY, I love your floral tights! Where did you get them?? It’s still hard to believe you’re the same height as me…you don’t look short in your photo snaps, but I look short in the mirror T^T But yeah I don’t mind things bunching up at the ends too much, sometimes it’s cute, but it’s definitely hard to avoid.

  24. Ys says:

    Those tights are so cute :D Are you only 5′1? I don’t know why but I thought you were about my height (5′6) lol!

  25. Nicky says:

    Whew! Take a break :) I wanted to comment on those Soy Joys, I tried some when they were on sale, but I hate how they taste, I was thinking they discontinued this brand,I guess not. I really like Cliff bars tho, and your floral tights are cute. I never find any I like, I know forever 21 has some but their so cheap.

  26. rene says:

    My favorite outfit is the one with the black hat!

    The lipstick is gonna make every outfit pop! Will you be getting it? Love to see it on you! Especially since you are so fair, I don’t think it is suitable for yellow skin Asians(except Japanese).

  27. cin says:

    I think the lethargy is everywhere! I’ve been feeling it too~ All bleeeh and stuff but it might also be a PMS thing (or both) XD
    Loving the outfits! :D
