The Scenery
For the first time, I made an article of clothing that was NOT for cosplay!!
Made using this pattern

Hand-sewn lining... wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be. The hardest part was figuring out how to make the lining since the pattern didn't come with any instructions on lining. I studied my coats and looked around online to figure it out. I also kinda wish I made it out of white or white/black fabric now. I look like Bavarian or something...
Waking up earlier these days provides me with some pretty nice lighting in the morning... I was trying out my new eyeliner on Friday. And I promptly decided that I wanted to dress Korean that day so I did.
Also I bought this at the Korean market
...and used it to embellish my brunch of leftovers from a Vegan place I tried yesterday called Pure Luck. I had the BBQ Pork sandwich and it was quite good. And yes those are sweet potato fries. :)
And I was telling my friend how I noticed some girl on campus wearing the same pair of black boots (the ones I'm wearing in the cloak pictures) and how I didn't feel like wearing them that much anymore... and she called me a "HIPSTER"! Oh that hateful word!! But she also said that rather than being hipster, I was more like what the hipsters aspire to be. As in a unique individual who has their own viewpoint on life/culture/etc. and is not influenced by what society tells them to think/believe. So stuff like making your own clothes and eating vegan and whatnot is their attempts to be original and yet everyone tries to be original in the SAME WAY so it is ultimately useless. And that is why hipsters make me irrationally angry.
