❤54❤ City~



Hello~ : )


イタイ子日記


Yesterday I went to the shopping mall in Bilk (a part of Düsseldorf) because I had to bring some letters to the post office.
Then I decided to do some window-shopping but.. well..



Of course I ended up buying something ^ ^°

I found these safety-pants in the underwear section of New Yorker!!
I was looking for those on the internet for some time already, but they all looked so cheap 

These felt soft and compfortable and were only 7.99€ each!









Then I went to Immermann-Street (where all the Japanese shops are located) because I wanted to check if the new Ageha was already in stock, but it wasn't (; A;




It was already about 3pm by then and I hadn't eating anything, so I stopped by at BoBoQ and had a Honeydew-Bubbletea and 2 O-Cakes.

They sold it as a menu for 6€.

I had never tried those O-Cakes before so I decided for Oreo and White Choclate!







They were bigger than I expected!
The dough was something between pancake and waffles. I guess it contains lots of eggs, but it's tasty! 



This was the Oreo one! 
I think there were 2 oreo cakes inside 



This was the white choclate one!



Both were nice, but I liked the Oreo one better, since the other one was a bit too heavy for me

❤53❤ iPhone Charger Review



バラ ~Hello~ バラ



About one month ago I ordered an iPhone charger from ebay after I'd seen one when meeting with friends.

She got hers from Japan, I got mine from China.

I bought it on April 6 and payed 11,40€ shipping included.





Before buying it I checked how many mAh the chargers had that were offered on ebay.
The higher, the longer the battery lasts!

The range started at 1200 and ended at 5600.

About 1200mAh equals charging your iPhone from 0-100% if I'm not mistaken, so please think about that when buying one!!




Further it only has one usb-slot, so only one phone can be charged. 
I saw some with two slots, but they had less battery capacity.


I also saw that it had the CE sign on the back, which proofs that it's produced regarding European Standarts.

It took about one month after the small package arrived!


This was the pic on ebay:




This was what I got:








The charger doesn't look too fancy, but it was clean and without any scratches!

This is how it looks like:


Front:

Back:

... NO CE - SIGN !!

If you get something like that please be careful when using it !!

Don't let something charge over night, as it might get too hot while charging!!
( I opened a file on ebay about that and will let you know how it ended!)


However~



The button has three options: 


Off - well.. no lights on.


Light - all four lights go on - probably handy for traveling! )





Charge - 1-4 lights on, depending on how much life is left 

(It came with battery already half full!)




They also included lots of additional plugs. 

For charging the charger you'd need the micro-usb one : )



Quick Review:

Overall:
(✰✰✰✰✰ - for the missing CE-certificate)

It's really heavy!!

❤52❤ Die Umsteiger - Vegan Blog (German - sorry!!)


Hallo~






Heute möchte ich euch einen Blog vorstellen, den ich durch Zufall gefunden habe und unglaublich toll finde!

"Die Umsteiger"





Die Umsteiger sind ständig auf der Suche nach neuen veganen Alternativen zu Fleischprodukten. Es gibt Rezepte, Produkttests und für vieles Kochanleitungen auf Youtube


Ich bekomme oft zu hören "Wenn du Fleisch so eklig findest, dann versteh ich nicht, warum du Fleischersatz isst!"
Tja.. was soll ich sagen? Die Aussage ist einfach falsch.
Wie wahrscheinlich 99,9% aller Vegetarier und Veganer kam ich so ja nicht auf die Welt.

Ich hab Schnitzel und Bacon geliebt und meine Mama hat die besten Frikadellen und Rouladen der Welt gemacht : )

Ich hab Schwein, Rind und Hähnchen gegessen, auch wenn ich bei allem andern schon immer eher das Tier, als das Produkt im Kopf hatte.
Einmal im Urlaub zum Beispiel hatten wir Halbpension und es gab Putenschnitzel - Ich bin mit meinen 12 Jahren heulend aufs Klo gerannt, als ich beim Nachfragen rausgefunden hab, was ich das gegessen hab.

Na ja.. back to topic.

Wie gesagt - Ich hatte nie etwas gegen den Geschmack von Fleisch und wahrscheinlich hätte ich das auch heute nicht, ABER wenn ich heute Fleisch sehe, sehe ich das eben nicht mehr ein leckeres Schnitzel vor mir, sondern den Teil einer Tierleiche.

Das bedeutet ja aber nicht, dass ich mir manchmal denke "Hach ich hätt Lust auf Rührei und Bacon" - geschmacklich eben!


Die Umsteiger bieten da viele tolle Alternativen!

Man glaubt erst nicht, dass es wirklich funktioniert, so simpel sind manche Rezepte, aber ich war jedes mal baff!


Mein Favorit bis heute:





Ich habe vor als nächstes das vegane Mettbrötchen auszuprobieren!

❤51❤ Step One: New Documents


As some of you might now, I plan to start my Work and Holiday in Japan this autumn/winter.


Currently I'm still super busy with preparations for my thesis (and my tutor is freaking me out), but there are things I don't want to procrastinate for too long!

One of those things are my documents.

Although my ID and travel papers are still valid, they'd expire during my stay in Japan.
Therefore I need both to be renewed.

That also means that I need new pictures for my passports (' A'

Therefore I'm going to have them taken today! : )

Further I hope that I'll receive my money already today so I can go to the city hall and order my new passport!

I knew that they aren't for free, but.. when I read -how- expensive an ID card and especially a passport is I was kinda shocked!

An ID card will cost you around 30€ which is kind of what I expected, but the passport comes at 60€!

So both documents will cost me around 90€ already!






Let's hope that at least the pictures won't look too silly! ; )

❤49❤ Lockshop Wig Review

Hello~

Last week I ordered a wig at Lockshop!

The new Mermaid Faerie wig.

It took about a week until it made it's way from the Netherlands to Germany.
I received a tracking number and shipping was about the price I payed.
(6,90€ shipping + 1,50€ packaging.. I payed 10€ for shipping so.. That's okay I think.)



The wig was placed in a plastic wrap and a thin net. Unfortunately the net had a hole that made it impossible to put the wig back in there.




The wig feels really soft and only has natural shimmer that makes it look like real hair.
It's a blend of really light blond (right) and a bit darker blond (left).
The difference is small enough to not make it look strange!






It was easy to comb through and has beautiful waves <3 
The fringe is long enough to cut it into any shape you like, but it definitely needs to be cut before it can be worn.

Also, when putting all hair in the front over your showers the net can't be seen : )

There are just two little points that I don't like:
A) The roots are really flat. A little more volume would make them look way more natural! Also backcombing didn't really work ><

B) the wig is styled with center parting. That makes it impossible to style it in hime-style and you're limited to just a few possibilities to wear it.


Other than that I'm in love!
It was the first time I ordered from Lockshop and I'd do it defiantly again! : )



This is how it looks worn : )

♥048♥ Düsseldorf~



バラ~Hello~バラ

Oh and Happy New Year!!


Recently I moved to a new flat!
Finally away from my old room mate.
(My friends already know what major trouble I had with her)


My room now is small, 
BUT
I have my own kitchen
and my own bathrom


Furthermore this way I can already get used to
the space I'll probably have 
in Japan from autumn now.


Work is okay as well!
I have nice colleguages and
was responsible for a charity project
we run on eBay!

Until today we already collected about 2000€
And we are awaiting a bit more from the auctions
running out today on ebay!!


However...
I felt really strange this week.
Grumpy Cat mode or something like that haha

I always try to not show it but..
This week it couldn't be helped I guess.

On Friday I tried a new way to do my nails.
I saw it in the App Girl's Pic from Ameba and the turoial really worked!




Yesterday I met with Elena and Lucy

We went to eat Ramen, took Purikura and went to Karaoke!
マイクe913
It was their first time there, and I hope they had fun!
Although I only met them for the 2nd time I really enjoyed meeting them!



Real Vegetarian Ramen at My Noodlehouse !



Maccha Coffee Latte at Relax!


Oh and next month I'll probably get my studyfinancing!
I'm waiting for my money since 7 month then!
I wonder how they think students are able to survive..

I mean..
They are going to pay all the money I should have gotten from September on
at once, which will at least save my trip to Japan in autumn..,
but I'd have preferred getting my money monthly
to... pay my rent, food, insurance, etc.
(^   ^);

Well~
At least I don't have to wait that long anymore!!


Next month it's also
Maifo's concert!
Already looking forward to it, although I don't really like
Ricky's voice.
I just hope he'll convince me at that live
リボン



Here is one of the Purikuras we took!
