THE TWO HDLAS !!💖❤️/HAPPY 109 DAY (SAY WHAT?? O_o)!!
So uh, I did NOT have anyone to twin with sadly💔😭(maybe cuz you didn't ASK ANYONE IDIOT!! (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻) ) But it was whateves! I originally had a pink-ish outfit but changed it last minute to my D.i.a red Christmas top, Ed Hardy skirt, white D.I.A belt, white leg warmers, brown fur tail, and PINK SLIPPERS they were sooooo comfy and made my feet look cartoonishly big. But I wasn't rlly satisfied with what I wore bcuz ...out of season? I was the only Santa there🎅 ho ho ho...at least it matched the skirt..
But anyway, I made it to HDLA with what I had and started shopping/looking around by myself because I was the first to arrive. So I felt like a little peasant boy abandoned by my family and just turned into an orphan. Bcuz I had no one to talk to + know I dont usually go out of my way to talk to others cuz...shy🙂
But someone,,,came to my rescue when I was in the middle of buying an item. Seriously unexpected!! I didn't believe my EYES, guys! Felt like a crossover episode of some sort. IT WAS THE!!!! THEEEEE!!!!!!!!! CINDY!!! MISS AGEHA1810 HERSELF!! Like WHAAA?? She called out to me saying something like "I know you 🫵" (idr remeber) but my expression went from ⌌⌈╹므╹⌉ toヾ(＠°▽°＠)ﾉ LIKE HOLY MOLY NO WAY?? I remember being so happy, excited, surprised, and lowkey felt like a fan girl LOL., I tried to keep my cool, but she was so fabulous and INCREDIBLY sweet + silly!!!. So after that, we walked around HDLA checking out the vendors chatting n stuff.
After a while Cielo, Cielo's GF(I forgot their name I'm sorry....😢), and Jacey came! They all looked amazing btw :3, we all took photos together before looping around HDLA again, with the courtesy of Cindy's digital cam!! (Thank you, Cindy!) 
By the end of that, we sorta hung out for a while, sitting and chatting abt whatever came to mind. We were just chillin like a cool couple of dudes😎
Kayden was so kind to take our pictures with his super fancy camera out in the sunlight! We all waited outside, with our group huddled together waiting for our turns, I was scrambling through Pinterest to find pose ideas cuz I only default to 3 poses constantly (☉‿☉✿). But I had sm fun talking with more ppl that joined in! I did stumble with my words (I started to stutter @ one point cuz I got excited about a topic ಥ_ಥ, mentally kicked myself + felt so embarrassed abt it cuz I wasn't focusing on my voice) But I didn't let that get to me ;PP
After the mini photo shoot w/ both Kayden + Mambastic, Jacey, Cindy, and I decided to walk down to little tokyo to take some Purikura, BUT I noticed I had an uh.. makeup emergency being....MY FREAKING LASH LIFTING!!! IT IS ALWAYS THE LEFT ONE TOO UGH! OG lash glue...u failed me... embarrassed me even..
Cindy offered her lash glue, but it looked brand spanking new and I would've felt super guilty if I ruined it (cuz I have crusty stacked lashes + messy when it comes to makeup) so we took a small detour to a beauty store and I got scammed with a $10 lash glue (wtf), used it, it was...okay better than what I had before, yknow looking crazy
(´＿｀。) *sniff*
BUT FINALLY! We made it to the Purikura booth and we took some group photos!
And Ofc I did my single photos as well (●´ω｀●)
While waiting for Jacey to take her individuals, with Cindy helping out with editing, I was looking after our belongings, I was the security guard 😼 took some selfies/tiktoks ofc to kill time
By this point I was getting sorta tired physically, like idk what happened, but my back started to ache (all those years of cheer + unchecked injuries from it finally decided to catch up to me huh) + I was hungry.. so hungry man! So we sat down at a table to decorate our pictures, but I was lowkey just sitting there to rest, there's one photo of me where I looked like a 40-year-old man after drinking 100 beers watching the football game w/ 0 care in the world 😭!
But we took more photos!! (no rlly?🙄 Ya!😝) took more selfies + more digicam pictures with the thanks to Cindy! We even had ppl come up to us 3 to ask for photos, felt soooo cool!
But after this, our meeting was officially like over💔, I had to go back home, sobs... sniffles, but hey ...to take care of my growling🐺 stomach, i got some tacos in the end, 4 specifically w/ big horchata and I ate them so fast...yummy 😈😈
8-17 HDLA x KKG TAKEOVER!/4 YEAR GALIVERSARY
OH YEAH LET'S GET INTO THIS ONE YALL!! while typing this entry we (re)watching Azumanga Daioh while eating pizza so, u might see osaka and the gang thrown in here in some parts, cuz its literally like KKG ♪┏ ( ･o･) ┛♪┗ (･o･ ) ┓♪┏(･o･)┛♪
I had a pretty smooth morning getting ready! i didnt have to rush, I took my time and gee...it felt so good to do so. My hair came out so good! I was rlly proud of my work, make with my new bottom lashes also came out so BOMB! like these r going to be my go to babies now!! My look was on a whole new level, i felt so pretty.
Well, I get to the event, with time to spare so, I put on my nails that my lovely mutual Spike aka knifesluv made for me! Look at these bad boys guys...literally so cool and awesome, one of the best nail designers ever!!
Then right after putting on my nails, KKG member Hailey interviewed me for the HDLA x KKG take-over vlog :oo !! You can watch it here!!
By 12:00 PM, everything was set up and ready to go, our makeup artists, Parapara teachers, vendors, and "security" (me) were ready for the people! We had Eurobeat + everything, thank you DJ! And there were a lot of people...IN GYARU LIKE OH MY GOD!!! Never seen a place with so many Gyarus all in one space, it was...like a miracle, literally how I felt in that moment:
I brought my frisk plush with me cuz why not \_(ツ)_/
I mainly stayed at the booth, watching over it with Hailey, Ari, and Kadence. It was pretty hot or like...stuffy? inside of the Galleria so we all just passed Haily's fan around so each of us didn't pass from like a heat stroke or melt away lol. Hope they put some air conditioning or a big fan someday... lol :P
Then it was time for Katias and Danny's speech about Gyaru to the HDLA attendees-
^@/teatreetears(kayden) pic
Next was Danny's, Katia's, and Slip's Parapara performance to Night of Fire! They did SO GOOD ◕3◕! I was also following along from the booth ^.^
Then an hour or so passed after the performance and it was finally time for the...DUN DUN DUNNNN FASHION SHOW/CONTEST WOOOOOO!!!!
I was one of the three judges for this as well! Jacey and Kadence too! So,, I will say the setup of the contest was kinda all over the place "^_^, we were given paper and pens but those didn't rlly help, because #1 we couldn't rlly hear a lot of the contestant's names because they were either too quiet where the mic didn't pick up the audio, or they said their names too fast and walked away immediately once they reach the end of the stage. Or #2 Once the runway part was done, and we wanted to count the amount of contestants involved/get their names (because we didn't hear half of them) everyone just skedaddled! out of the area! So us, the judges were kinda lost while we were discussing who should get what place, because we tried to have everyone in their original spots in the line so we could have names to faces, but the line was disorganized and...people were missing 😭💔!!
I wish we had a sign-up beforehand, like with the contestants' names + faces, and with what style/outfit they wore. The process would've gone by so much smoother/faster! But the contestants were funny! Almost everyone was hitting pose 28 from Dress to Impress on Roblox!! ROBLOX IS REALLLL >xDDD
Despite the ruckus, us judges finally made a decision with who won! We chose our top 3! look how cyute we all look :3
I went back to the booth and continued my role as security guard🥸. I remember like dissociating at one point, I think my social battery or whatever sorta faded a little, or sleepiness? *shrugs* i dunno, but I excused myself to re-energize my mind :D and I'm glad I did!
Ivan Abruto a photographer asked me for photos! I gladly accepted! They turned out soooo awesome! thank you, Ivan Aburto!
Then, I went outside to get some "fresh" air, I took some selfies and tiktoks oh hehehe ヽ(〃＾▽＾〃)ﾉ
By this time after another hour or so was time to pack up and leave, but we got some pictures beforehand:
Then we all part ways💔 after saying our adios to one another, Jacey and I went to celebrate our 4-year galiversary in little tokyo and took some Purikura to commemorate our big milestone together!
I took some individual pictures as well!!!!
Jacey and I were having fun taking pics together and individually! We chatted about Gyaru and future plans! Then we walked back to the galleria, said our goodbyes and haazzaaahhhh!!! (◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)(◑‿◐)
Made it back safe and sound to family home where I took...MOREEE selfies and tiktoks!! I had one tiktok attract a lot of attention! So much so, that I had people draw me fan art of me and my frisk plush!! (⭒•͈ 𓎺 •͈ ), i was jumping all around the room from excitement yall !!!!!!

(Also BTW, I had this post already created about like 2 days after HDLA 9-21...but i lowkey (highkey you idiot don't lie 😡) got insecure about how my nose appeared in some of the photos like it looked....weirdly long...and ppl got pics of my side profile with my NOSE GUYS felt like I was in shambles cuz i couldn't pull off my amazing technique of "out of sight out of mind" and was hyper analyzing tf out of my photos, plus it didn't help with the fact that someone ik irl commented that I have the nose of an EAGLE and played dumb as to why I would be insecure about ...such a thing? Especially after being told I had a bird nose😢? Like oh idk....totally not because I've been made fun of for it like my...entire existence and you not helping this be any better. Like this person was like "I don't get it I'm technically saying the correct terminology to describe your nose what's the problem, why are you mad? 🤓☝️" and kinda kept rubbing it in with the whole "your mad that im right?wowww, its true you have an eagle nose, why r you sooo mad🙄 CORRECT TERMINIOLGY!!!" I was on the verge of frustration tears because I KNEW this person was messing with me atp. But whateves....i made myself feel a little bit better like a couple of days ago abt it bcuz my favorite kinda dog (weiner dogs aka Dachshunds) has the exact same(ish) long nose like me :P so i felt better bcuz if they can be cute with their long nose, I can too....ppl just suck sometimes ಥ_ಥ ) 
(one in the same......)
Sorry that this 1st official post was so long!(ृ°͈꒳°͈ ृ)ुI needed to document 2 major events before we move forward, so I feel satisfied! y'know setting a foundation or what have youuuuuuu
ALSO, HAPPY HAPPY 109 DAY!!! 👩🏼🦳💖✨🌺, You give me hope, a newfound reason to live...who would've thought seeing old school gyaru on Tiktok in 2020...then tsuyome...agejo...etc would lead me to find happiness? My way of discovering gal may have been cringe, but... im still around and gyaru is apart of my bloodstream, my heart, and my brain... it's apart of who I am, and I cherish that...💖
see you next time (✿´•‿•`)
(*ゝω・)ﾉThanks! -sarina
