New Year Resolutions

It's 2013! Time really flies. Just as everyone else, I've been eating and celebrating the holidays and made some resolutions:

1. Finish my book. You might laugh but I'm actually really close. I might finish it in January or February latest. Only a few chapters are left and I want to start correncting all the bullshit I wrote. I'm afraid it's part of the process.
2. Sports! My sport level rose during 2012 and I'm proud of that but it's still not continuous - sometimes I'm not doing anything for a whole week and then the next week I'm making sport everyday. I have to get some rhythm in that.
3. Do something about the anger. I think I have a lot of unresolved anger in me and that's why I can't stand people. We always start out nice but after a while (usually 1 1/2 to 2 years) I'm so pissed off. I just can't unsee all the little bad habbits, that everyone has. I for sure am not perfect. No one is. But it's driving me INSANE! I have to learn to take people the way they are and stay calm about it. We have to accept, what we can't change.
4. Study harder. I really have to! I made a good start during the holidays and I want to keep it that way. I hate to sit in class and  tohave no idea, what that guy is talking about. Or who he actually is. And what class am I talking exactly?
5. Keep reading, you missed it so much!
6. Work harder in Renai? I guess? I don't know, I'm already working really hard on that...
7. Keep on improving your voice. It's gonna be alright.
8. Clean your room more oft... ah... naa.... not gonna happen.
9. Eat more fibers.
10. Blog more. Like seriously. I'm not using this blog anymore and I' missing it to write in English. Lately, I'm always here: http://sweets-spirits.blogspot.de/ where I blog in German about books and food and everything that doesn't include me, posting pictures of myself. I really started hating that.

So yeah, those are my resolution and I hope I can keep a few of them... hey, I'm realistic.
Finally, I'd like to show you a flyer I made today about our next Renai Revolution concert. It's going to be a graduation special.

Helloooou ... people. It's been a while. I haven't blogged for almost 3 months, because some things happened and I needed to keep quiet. But I really think, 3 months are enough and I'm planning on being back soon.

I have lots of stuff to tell you about - from my Japan vacation over some Renai stuff to new Lolita things and a little show I'm part of. I don't know where to start yet, so I have to figure that out first. Then, I think around the weekend, I'll be back with a new entry.

Maybe in the meantime, you'd like to check out my other two blogs - I have one for recipes and one in German only (currently only about books, I've read, but that's going to change too...)

 

So yeah... stay tuned! =)

Dolly Styling and Last Week

Lately I haven't blogged very much ... or I have and didn't post any pictures. Well, I'm not the best ... eh ... camwhore ... but who cares, right?

So, I've been up to some things. I hade a photoshoot, which I can't blog about yet, because it would be like spoiling. We also got a BIG package with lots of great new Lolita things ... but I can't tell you about them either. 

Well I can show you my styling ... a bit.

It was after the shoot, so I'm already back in my everyday clothes. The lashes are really too much, but it was a dolly theme.  Oh ... and why does my face look sooooo ... askew. Weird.

I've also been to that very famous Swedish chain of furniture markets and I found something totally cute!

Haha ... it was the same day, that's why I'm wearing the same shirt. I had the shooting afterwards. I know I look a little nerdy here but sometimes I'm just too bored to dress up.

Just concentrate on that little strawberry and broccoli! I wonder if they also have other plushies like that.

I also mad my very first California Roll Uramaki! I always thought it would be so difficult, but it's actually not that big of a deal. Maybe I'm talented, but I guess, it's just not that hard.

It was more of using lefovers instead of favourites. It had avocado (dislike), surimi (depends), cucumber (oishii) and mayonnaise (dislike again). Everything for it's own is so not delicious. But in combination it was good! Unbelievable.

Alright then, I'll show you some things from the new package later! :)

Gyaru Secrets

Lately a friend of mine told me a lot about a site called "Gyaru Secrets", so of course I had to check it out.

First of all, I am not gal and I don't want to be (because basically they're creeping me out, your hair shouldn't look like a middle class family could live in there). Plus, I'm a little chubby and I don't feel like losing like lot of pounds to look like a praying mantis. But besides that, I respect other tastes and in my opinion every one can look the way he or she likes. Who cares? Fluffy hair doesn't make you a bad person.

So I was really surprised, that Gyaru Secrets obviously doesn't share my opinion. Ignoring, that there is no secret in a open-to-everyone blog, they're really ... mean. Their national sport seems to be bashing other people. When you call yourself a gal you're free to be bashed (their words, not mine). They pick pics (haha) and tell the girls how fat or ugly they look in their opinion. Getting high by putting others down, that's only prove of low self-esteem.

My friend, who wants to be a gal without being so grim,  is not so fond of Gyaru Secrets and now scared to appear on the site.
Seriously, people are actually scared to appear on that site! It's not funny anymore! If you want a blog about fashion, you should make it a fun site, that people like to visit ... not a site that people only check to see if they've been bashed or not. Even if I'd think about being a gal, I would be to scared about the site ...

I'm curious if there are similar sites about Lolitas? Or Punk? Or Visus? Or ... well, whatever there is. Are there?

Fantasy ga Hajimaru

I won't start with the typical "Hi, my name is ..." like most of the others do.
Let's be honest. Starting a blog, finding a title and writing the first entry is hard work. Well, maybe starting a blog isn't, but everything else, if you want to be creative, sure is.
I hate titles. I really do. They have to be smart, catchy, maybe funny or mysterious, but as soon as people think you're stupid as bread, they'll never come back and good bye to your bright blogger career.
So, what does Resonant Blue stand for? Besides it is a song title from my favourite group, I really like the idea of sound and vision, combined to a great experience. I'm sorry to those, thinking I'm going to blog about my lovely Morning Musume all day and night, because it's not my intention. Go ahead, find yourself a JPop blog, I'm fine with it. Of course sometimes I'm going to talk about them, since they're a big part of my life, despite the fact I've passed 14 a long time ago. You can still love music, right?
By the way, this post's title is a Morning Musume song, too... I just hate thinking of titles. Luckily my parents don't think that way or I would be the nameless girl...

This is not my first blog. It's actually the third one. Only one of the others is still active and it wouldn't be a lot fun to you, since it's mainly in Japanese and quite dull. Some time ago I've lost interest in blogging, but today I've watched the movie Julie & Julia (which is great by the way) and I was reminded, why I startet in first place.
So I was thinking ... I'm not interested in looking back on my first blog, it's been almost 4 years and I've become a different person. I really like the idea of having a project like in the movie. Since I'm a passionated chef myself, cooking is an obvious idea, but it has been done and I'm lacking persistence. I'm not quite sure, what to do with this blog, but I'll figure it out! Maybe I should just talk about my life the way it is ... unspectacular. Maybe being that unspectacular makes it great!
Or maybe not.

That's what I got to find out.
