Extended Vacation! Eff yeah!

I don't always take vacations; but when I do I go places. Though not really that far honestly. Four hours north and I'm in the lovely ~ttle by the Sea~ In all honesty I used to hate coming to Seattle. So many bad memories and I find the city somewhat confusing. Come to think of it though a lot of the time I was pretty much "trapped" in Bellevue and only really got to hang out with people later on in the night as opposed to oh I don't know... getting some sunlight.

However though, now, I have met many of awesome people here! I can't even to begin to even tell you how much I am enjoying doing nothing for 4 days straight and hanging out with all of the awesome people! The only reason this is possible though is that my vacation time at work rolls over come March 1st- and it's one of those "use it or lose it" situations (which really sucks.)

My only complaint at the moment is that these few days have gone by far too fast for my liking! Although in reality I'm sure it doesn't help that I slept so much; but I was so very very tired.

Honestly I haven't taken any photos while being here since I've been a lump haha. However I do have a few more lolita write-ups to do as well as fashion and wig ones! I've come to find that I take a long time doing so though. But I feel as though it's very worth it :) I know that while searching for information on various sites I would like ti order from or even specific items I want to order it helps if someone else has already written a review. SO. Since I have pretty much caught up on any lost sleep I've had for the past month [it would seam] I will try just a wee bit harder to write such things.

But in the meantime it's nearly midnight and I am hungry. And Seattle has SO MANY great restaurants that are open so late! <3 Chinese food time go!!

East Coast in a nutshell

I had this big ol' awesome entry typed up about my trip to the East Coast (namely Atlanta, GA and South Carolina) but I was a dumb and deleted the text file. So this will be the cliff note version with select pictures of my choosing; mostly since I took a lot of random pictures of things that most people find boring.
I will say that it was a BIT of a culture shock. Having been born and raised in Portland Oregon it was a very different place. A little part of me cried every time I saw people throw away recyclables :(

Anywho, I flew into Atlanta, GA since it was approx $100 CHEAPER than flying directly to South Carolina. My trip had a few things I wanted to attend in Atlanta with the big one being the aquarium.
