UROBOROS

I hauled to HMV today to pick up my ridiculously expensive deluxe gold-plated limited edition UROBOROS today. I was worried they'd give it away if I didn't get there soon enough :P But anyway what better way to start the day than with a HUGE ass 10lb Dir album? xD

It's so epic I took keitai pics when I got to work...


the outer shell lol


the lyrics booklet is hardcover and epic in its own right.


the vinyl cover. It comes with a matching sticker... that is also 12"x12" >_> wtf are you supposed to do with a sticker that big xD

I had a few minutes after picking it up so I went upstairs to Angelic Pretty (lol the entry to the escalators was covered with life-size Dir posters that I wanted to steal, which was hilarious because it makes sense that the barrier between a music shop and lolita clothes OUGHT to be Dir. If you ask me. But anyway this story gets better-- I went to AP and the girl I hate, the ringleader of the AP bitches, was actually talking to me for some reason. Maybe cuz I was the only customer? But anyway like, I was carrying my Dozing Green bag and she was like "Oh, do you like Dir?"
>_> Why yes, AP girl, and why are you asking?
So we talked about Dir for a while xD And it was awkward and hilarious. I told her that the huge HMV bag contained the limited version of the album and she was like "woooooooow that's so expensive!" and I mentally giggled because that's sort of like someone carrying a brand new Louis Vuitton whining about a Hello Kitty wallet costing 500 yen (which I have seen, it's a very Nagoya thing).

Anyway I bought some socks (I now have the stupid Wonder Party socks in pink AND black) and I got the cookie ring in white x pink because its adorable. I wish the necklace and bracelet hadn't sold out so fast. When I was checking out I used my point card (win for both items totaling 840 yen!) and told the staff girls that I'm leaving next week, and they were really shocked. The queen was like "please wear lolita in America!!" and gave me a novelty towel just for the sake of being nice >_> Hell hath frozen over.

And then I went to work. My students are all determined to give me gifts also. Its sweet but I wonder where I'm going to put them all >_> Today one of my students gave me a Jay Chou CD, which is hilarious.
Shigeo came back after a several-month absence and was shocked to hear that I'm leaving, and he was like "I'm going to bring you a present! I'll be back! I swear, before Saturday!"
A present from Shigeo is a little scary xD

Ugh. I have to pack. That's all I do anymore :( And I can't even listen to UROBOROS because this computer is such a piece of shit.

edit: Woo, go dying computer. I managed to rip the cds and I even got the DVD to play and LOLed at Shinya's voice for a while. I love my little robot. I wish there'd been an actual PV for Toguro, but they'd already let on that Vinushka will be the next PV so I'm not surprised.
But I have to say this to the "unplugged" Inconvenient Ideal: ._O


Also, I do not understand the moderated posting at the Dir comm ~_~ Like, if people post the same thing several times into the queue-- unknowingly, because you have no way of knowing what has been posted till they are accepted-- WHY do the mods let all of them through?? D: I wouldn't not get my feelings hurt if my post was denied because someone posted the same info before me. Either read the posts before you accept/deny them, or get more mods in more timezones so they don't back up for days at a time ~_~;


okok... really going to bed this time...
