i am back~
Ohaycon '1o, not really that much fun. but not really boring either.
little drama, less than i expected, but in a different area than i expected.
i do not understand why someone i /never/ spoke to before would think i cared about them.
but what can i say- i am so cute everyone wishes i talked to them.
; w ;
Aoi is so cute too, the girl who yelled at me was trying to mock him but when she say him all she could say was
"go hang out with -looks at Aoi- ........ your friend from California"
ohhhhhhh burn
-rolls eyes-
and then my ex-GF messaged me on MySpace and i have /no/ idea how she found me because we have zero common friends and i have a fake last name.
fucking /stalkers/
i met a few nice people, the dog got barf all over my car, and bought Aoi a lot of nice things.
[i got some nice things to...]
then when i got home i hit a tree
^OO^
i am hilarious.
getting my nails done tomorrow, and doing Aoi's.
as soon as my shipment of false nails comes in i can start making them.
i could now, but i do not like the shape of them.
|:
i might anyway.
i have 3 new wheels with pearls, colored pearls, and more colored gems, and a pouch of shaped pearls. how exciting.
also i bought 2 jars of beads. silver and gold.
holyshitexcited
that is all for now.
no pix of the con, it hurts enough to look at all the 80% naked people there.
you do not need to see it, too.

Acrylic Vs Gel nails
because of the person in my comment box, i looked up some acrylic and gel nail information.
i have been doing acrylic nails for years, but have never seen or had gel ones.
so i got informed.

gel nail french tip

acrylic nail french tip

my judging?? acrylic nails win.
why? they last longer, hold polish better, if you remove the correctly they are less damaging, they cost less, and they are easier to DIY.
also, i personally feel they look the same.
i have been doing acrylic nails for years, but have never seen or had gel ones.
so i got informed.
Pros of Acrylic Nails
- If you break an acrylic nail you can almost always fix it temporarily and rather easily yourself.
- The removal process is simple and straightforward if done by a professional. The nails can be soaked rather than filed off.
- Acrylics are very strong. When done correctly and good nail care is practiced, they can last a long time. They’re robust!
Pros of Gel Nails
- Gel nails often look more natural and glossy than other types of cosmetic nails.
- The curing time is faster than acrylics, sometimes clocking in at just two minutes when light-curing is done.
- Gel nail mixtures are odorless.
- There is less filing involved during the application process.
Cons of Acrylic Nails
- They can damage your real nails in a harsher manner than gel nails can.
- Acrylics can look fake instead of natural and they can look even worse when done incorrectly.
- It can be hard to grow out acrylic nails.
Cons of Gel Nails
- They don’t last as long and are less durable than acrylic, even though they tend to cost more.
- Gel nails are harder to do yourself if you like to do home manicures.
- It’s been noted that nail polish won’t stick to the gel finish as well as it does to an acrylic finish.
- If a gel nail breaks, you may be in for some trouble. It can sometimes be more of a shatter effect than a clean break, so self-fixing a break is not usually an option. You’ll need to make an appointment right away with your manicurist. Sometimes they do break cleanly; basic nail glue could be used in that case.
- Gel nails almost always need to be filed off. You can’t just soak them away.

Gothic Gem Cross nail tutorial
ta-da~

<333
[his nails are real, btw]
Products :
Dial-A-Gem nail gem wheel
clear nail polish
mechanical pencil [a tooth pick works]
Music
exist†trace - re-prologue
i know i said i would do my nails tonight, too.
but the nail polish remover i have is really weak so it does not take off the silvery sparkle stuff well.
[plus it is hard to get off, you will need to file it in some areas. all sparkles/gems are like this]
so i will get a new video up of my X nail design on Wednesday, i think.

new nail tutorial tomorrow! [and old nail designs]
i am going to make a new tutorial tomorrow, because these nails keep turning pink.
i just dyed my hair a deeper red, and i tangle my hands in my hair when i sleep. so they keep turning pink.
so annoying!
so i just thought i would let you know and show you some of my old designs.
[i have had a lot but my computers hard drive was wiped clean so i only have pix 2 of my old designs :C]

trying to replicate this design is what actually taught me the french tip trick.
i accidentally made one too thick and was too lazy to fix it.
:3

my current design, you can kind of see the pink tint.

a really old design, one of my nails fell off at the shelter. it was not because of the fake nail, it was because i was being way to rough with them. do not do hard labor with nails this long.
ALL TAKEN WITH MY PHONE IN BAD LIGHTING
sorry for the awful quality.
:C
