Get a Tumblr? (46) 
Rinka’s blog is like 1/2 Rinka 1/2 cat blog now
and it’s awesooooome!!! 
I’m debating whether or not to get myself a Tumblr~~~ I’ve thought about it before but thought it would be rarely updated because my blog is where my randomness goes 
but I follow lots of Tumblrs and sometimes I just wish I could send along all those great pics or quotes I come across! 
I could also put my random scanned in things into Tumblr. 
I scan things in but they never make it to my blog because when I blog it’s usually so in the moment I forget. 
*thinks *thinks 
This is my phone’s background right now 
It’s screaming yellow 
and blinding when trying to navigate my icons
BUT I DON’T CARE! 
YAAAAAAAAY!
I’m crazy right now due to PMS. 
Your tmi for the day~ 
YOU’RE WELCOME 
:O oooooooh! 
As I was typing the email confirmation for my New York hotel reservation arrived! YAAAY!! Going for my birthday next month for sure now!! Staying at The Ace Hotel. 
Thank you Louise for recommending it! Got a great deal from Jetsetter! And yes if you do click on the link for Ace Hotel there’s a freakin’ owl on the damn home page! 
WIN! We’re going to drive now instead of take the train (schedules weren’t working out and driving is only 1 hour longer than taking the train. It’s cheaper anyway and Mike wants to 
)
Oh I added a green background for St. Patty’s Day
Winn just sent me this ADORABLE “Sushi Cat” game!!!!! OMG the cat reminds me of my fat plush kitty “Blobbie“!

Donki’s Tokyo Cover Girl (61)
I had heard Donki (ドン･キホーテ - Don Quijote) was putting out a line of extremely cheap clothing (fast fashion) but I didn’t realize they were selling full sets of outfits using a Tokyo Cover Girl theme! SO CUUUUTE! I love this idea!! Donki was one of the few places on my much too short trip last year that I visited multiple times. I think I visited 3 times?! The store basically has any sorta random ~ bizarre item you want. Kigurumi, hostess garb, circle lenses, fireworks, Japanese tees, sweat baths, cellulite rollers, so on & so on randomness.
OK, enough reminiscing and pining… the clothes!! 
Admittedly they’re quite basic, but for around $40 USD you can’t expect something extravagant for a 3-piece set! 
Most of the looks don’t really match my current tastes but the above three were my favorites! 
I’d love a cheap set that includes the mock-shirt skirt!! I keep wanting to buy one but I’m still so paranoid about sizing and fit that I’ve held off. You can view them all here. 
I also think I heard they were/have come out with a line of $7 jeans?! LOL! Fast-food-like fashion indeed 
*added*
*Thought I’d add this little video of the SG models doing the cover shoots for the brand line
Thank god for teh youtube! haaaar!*
The boring stuff~ LOL
I didn’t think I’d get to blog today, though now it’s so late I don’t really have the time to post what I wanted to right now. Yesterday I wrote up this long private entry about how hard things have been for me this week. It was incredibly whiny and self-indulgent. Then last night something happened and I realized how selfish I have been. Selfish in that the only happiness that mattered was my own. So, I think I can make it to the weekend, and look on the brighter side of things and try to help others in their happiness first. 
Plus today my heater got fixed! yay~ no more loud noise! They still have to come back and replace the motor though. But it’ll keep the house heated until then so it’s OK.
Also, if you haven’t noticed, my New Year’s Resolution is going great! I haven’t bought any clothes and it’s been 4 weekends now! The weekends are when we go to the stores, but I’ve only been window shopping! And even with my online purchases (overalls, contacts, the stuff I really want) I’m spending less than when I’d just buy some random thing that “reminded” me of some Japanese brand item! It’s true, and I have my higher-than-ever bank account to prove it! Ha! 
Now I’m just holding off for spring items~ figure out what I want and then place an order~ Might be a while before I find my “must have” items
Speaking of sales I saw Zara was having one last weekend so I cruised in… ya know, just TO SEE! I hate their sales! 
Seriously! Like 1/2 the merchandise on sale is damaged! WTF. 
Rips and stains and still $19!? no thanks Zara.
Oh yea, and I decided to slap my photo up in my sidebar! I used to have 1 there years ago, but then felt shame at showing how old I was! Hahahaha! Now there are soooo many bloggers in their 20’s, it’s no longer a shameful thing! Remember when we’d ask ourselves “What will I do when I turn 25?! I can’t continue to do such a childish thing like blog!” Plus ameblo & blogger all seem to have it, I feel I’m being all weird-secretive not having mine, I dunno~ Maybe I’ll take it down… errrrrrr. LOL Maybe this will better clear up any misunderstandings that I’m a Japanese person 
… Even though I have photos in my profile, I’ve still gotten random comments “Oh I thought you were Japanese.” gaaaaah 
I never know how to respond to that b/c I don’t lead on that I would be~ 
OK, it’s late and I’m RAMBLING!

SBY Goods and Circle Lenses (93)
First off thank you everyone for your concerns about my morning. Snowy roads + racing to catch my train = crashing into a snow bank. Luckily I’m OK, the car’s now (dent was popped out thankfully) OK, and I should have known to WALK to the train today. I just FORGOT that it had snowed last night!
Secondly, new layout! Is it too pink?! HAHAHAA 
I actually had Valentine’s Day in mind when I made it. No Tsubasa this time, but only because I saw this WC ad Chinatsu did in PopSister and it seemed lovely~~ 
So things haven’t been ALL bad luck this week! Yesterday my best friend’s xmas package finally arrived! Then today my circle lenses I ordered also finally arrived!~ My friend’s gift was postmarked December 12th or something. Ridiculous given how quickly items usually reach us. It had some inspection sticker I’ve never seen before on it too. Heightened security measures no doubt~ 
First, the gifts!!
