This is the follow-up post to the previous one about the convention!

On Tuesday I went to Kokorolia Maid Cafe with some of the friends from the World Cup party!
It was the first visit to a maid cafe for two of them, and this week was a nautical theme at Kokorolia! I already tossed or sold the sailor JSK I made years ago, so the only sailor dress I had was a long-sleeve one 🙀 In this 30C+ weather.... I still wore it 😹
It's a cutsew style OP, so I went pretty casual~

I've never been into sports and so have never watch a sportsball game before. Last night/this morning I went to my first live stream viewing experience at a sports/darts bar with friends!
It was at midnight as they wanted to watch the Argentina vs Egypt game.
I slept in until afternoon and then did my regular live stream from 7-10 pm and helping out my mom before heading out to the event~
Because I know nothing about soccer football, on stream I asked who we were supporting and what the game rules were 😹
Turns out all our friends were supporting Argentina so I were Argentina flag colors! 🇦🇷
Two of my friends visited me this past weekend! It was actually an coincidence that they both came to Taipei over the same weekend 😹 It was a great time!
I didn't really take many photos, actually. But it was so hot out! So I don't have any outfit shots unfortunately 😿
So here's just a few snaps!

I celebrated my birthday this past Saturday with a full day~

Oh gosh I meant to post this weeks ago! Two of my friends came to visit Taipei over Golden Week in Japan! I got to spend a half day with them~ We went to Taipei 101 observatory (89th floor) and the current IP collab is Monday Bruce!!
For any working class adult, Monday Bruce is such a vibe. He doesn't want to go to work, suffers through work, tolerates the travel to and from work, and is lazy on days off. Basically all of the adult workforce cat😹
It was evening as we were there, so we actually got to see Taipei go from daylight to night through the windows
There were also more "influencer" types this time compared to the last time I went. They were getting timelapse videos so they took up window spots for very long periods of time.
In addition to Monday Bruce, there were some floral exhibits too! Those were also fun for more "pretty" photos.
Life has been a bit exhausting lately! I'm still doing the TikTok streams (hate the platform, hate the AI, but met some nice viewers) so I've shifted to doing GRWM on streams. I'll share some random snaps while I talk about what's been going on!
Magical Girls are LIFE!!!! But let me start off by saying I forgot a key feature of this outfit.... my CTCTYO cyber cat ears 😿 I didn't remember them until I'd already arrived at the cafe!!
I also spent about 45 minutes trying out five different hairstyles, and ended up just not styling because I didn't like how anything looked 😿 So it's not as magical as it could have been, but at least the embroidery on my skirt was totally on theme!

Had some fun out with friends recently! Last weekend I met up with a friend at Ximending just to chill.

On Friday I met up with a friend at one of the Taipei Main station Komeda Coffee (there's three) cafés to try out the pokémon collaboration dishes!
There's three dishes total. I ordered the Drifloon cheese balls and the Dragonite ice fire dessert, and my friend ordered the Ditto mentaiko shrimp patty sandwich.
April 6 was the third wave of merch for the Sushiro x Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card collaboration, so I went with my friend Doro to a different decorated branch!
I've fallen behind on blogs again! On March 28 there was the first day of a Pokemon GO event at a local park, 大安森林公園/Daan Forest Park, so I went there with a couple acquaintances.
More Cardcaptor Sakura stuff! There is a collaboration between Clear Card and Sushiro, so we went on opening day (March 23)

On Saturday I went to HuaShan (華山) Cultural Park with my lolita friends to see the Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card pop-up shop (as well as like five other free exhibits)

On Saturday I cut my hair because I couldn't sleep due to the cold I've had. Accidentally cut over 30cm instead of the planned 20cm, but it'll grow back. The biggest mistake was how choppy I made the layers, and I don't know how to fix it! I guess I just have to wait for things to grow out for a few months now.
Curling the ends in does seem to hide the choppiness, so that's good.

Layers add more movement and lightness I think, but it does throw off how I style hair because the only styling I can usually do is braids, and layers poke out of braids a lot!! I'll have to practice or maybe wet my hair before braiding to help it look cleaner.
Also praying that this cold finishes soon! It's been almost a week 😿
It's been years since I've gone to the zoo! It's a lot bigger than I remember 😹
I went with my friends on Sunday! I mostly took video, but I can share a few photos that I did take~

I had a busy weekend over Peace Memorial Weekend! Peace Memorial Day is on Feb 28, though we got the 27th off as a makeup holiday since the 28th fell on a Saturday this year.
I met up with an internet friend for brunch on Saturday and since I had time in the morning, I tried out a makeup look I saw on Instagram!
Can't believe New Year break is over already! Here's some snaps and summary of my weekend~
I don't think I've paired this JSK with pink completely before, so I matched it with a pink blouse and headbow this time. I think Pink x Red looks nicer than expected! 🩷❤️

Happy Year of the Horse!! I spent New Year Eve cooking with my mom~
Originally she planned eight dishes as there's only two of us, then yesterday it expanded to ten dishes, and by the time we were done cooking, there were twelve 😹

For Valentine's Day (night) I went out to some WLW bars with a couple friends! During the day I did a bit of free talk practice in Japanese with a friend who is also learning Japanese while I did my makeup. I really like how the eyeliner turned out! It's got a little heart at the front. It's inspired by deerestdiary.makeup in Instagram. I love her pictorials!
My "eyeliner" is actually red eyeshadow with Ben Nye mixing medium. It turned out well and didn't crack this time! I just need to figure out how to not get hard pan in my palette because I dipped the mixing medium directly into my eyeshadow... I likely need to figure out how to scrape it into a mixing palette first.
It was not too cold, but cool enough that I could wear the new jacket my mom bought for me!
I also wore a new bodysuit I got. It looks fine in photos, but up close I feel like it's a bit cheap-looking. The design is really nice, though! I should have taken a turnaround video for instagram as the back has a design as well.
