Goodbye 2014!

Hello Internet!

Hope you all were having nice holidays so far.
Now 2014 is coming to an end and soon it will be history. Time flies bye so fast...
To finish this year with good memories, I am going to post 10 things that happened to me in 2014 today. This isn't what I usually do, but I think it might be quite funny.
They things named aren't put in a particular order. And though I had quite a few downs as well, I am only going to post positive stuff!


1. Re-starting You Tube

Even though I haven't uploaded anything in months, I finally started my YT channel again this year and I am currently planning on a new video. It's so much fun actually. I just need a better editing software. This video, however, is my personal favourite.




2. You Me At Six concert.

Yes. I finally saw them in March after being a fan since bloody 2011, even met Josh and Max after the concert and talked to them. They're such a great band and I hope to see them again some day.



3. London

I finally left the country again, even though it was only for a week. But I visited the city of my dreams and had a wonderful time. You can read everything about my trip in this entry.


4. Connichi

Yes, I've been there again. And even though I haven't made a post about it, it was as nice as always. I went there in my Alois Trancy cosplay this year and took so many photos, There was even a Ciel cosplayer who got me some selfmade cookies, haha.


5. Hamburg

I've been there so often in summer, met some really nice people, spent time with friends, went to concerts and other events and well...I fell in love with this city. Sadly I probably won't be able to go there before the PTV & SWS concert in march...


6. New hairstyle - again.

Yesss, another thing I did in 2014 was to let my short hair grow longer, dye it brown and get a full fringe again. One year ago I had a short, tomboyish haircut and now my hair has reached shoulder length again. Sometimes waiting can be worth it!




7. Harajuku Fashion Walk

Another thing I did in Hamburg. I went to the 2nd Harajuku Fashion walk and joined a group of wonderfully dressed people for one day, even met someone who I already knew just from Twitter. The weather kind of sucked and my train was quite late that day, but I had fun anyways!


8. BORN X Lycaon

I finally saw them. Finally saw BORN. One of the few J-Rock bands I liked from the beginning of my Japan-phase and I still love them. Stood in the second row, right in the middle, in front of Ryoga who I can't help but still have a crush on. It was so nice to finally attend one of their shows. And I got to know some awesome people as well who I had so much fun with...especially when Lycaon's Satoshi walked out of the bus like the ultimate derp...haha...
However, have a pre-concert pic of me and my friend Alina! ^_^




9. No title needed tbh

The day before the BORN X Lycaon concert I took the train to Hannover. Not knowing what will happen.
That day I met the person who is now my boyfriend since about 3 months. And to be honest...I couldn't be happier.


Derp.
(I look so horrible ahaha sorry)


10. Linkin Park and Of Mice & Men concert

By far one of the best days this year and an AMAZING concert. I am listening to some old Linkin Park songs as I am typing this and they're giving me the feels again. Somehow I can't put all my emotions in proper words, so maybe scroll down a few posts and read the entry about the concert if you want to get a better impression of it. ^^"



Well...maybe this isn't the best entry I've ever written...but at least I managend to capture the beautiful moments of 2014 which was truly one hell of a rollercoaster ride for me.
Let's see what 2015 brings!

Hope you'll enjoy your New Year's Eve and have a nice start in 2015.
See you then!




Circle Lenses Review #4 - EOS LUCIFER ELF Black ♥

Hi again!

How's everyone doing?
After a not so successful week, I finally managed to get my shit together and do the thing: preparing a new lens review.
This one is again sponsored by KLENSPOP, who were friendly enough to send me a wonderful pair of black circle lenses called "LUCIFER ELF black". (I already introduced the shop in this entry if you are interested in it)



Beautiful, aren't they?

Lens Info
Brand: EOS
Diameter: 14.5mm
Graphic Diameter: 13.9mm
Water Content: 38%
Base Curve: 8.8mm
Life Span: 1 year (Max)
Country of origin: South Korea
Price: $15.00 / 11,59€
Price Includes: 1 PAIR (2 pcs) + BONUS CASE


This time, it took less than 2 weeks for the lenses to arrive. I got them last Saturday what was pretty surprising since the tracking information hasn't been updated in a while since then. I was even unable to find tham via DHL tracking, what was pretty strange actually.
But like the last ones, they came with a cute lens case and some tweezers, sadly without any solution.


Cute package <3







I really HATE those bottles. They are so hard to open and I'm always afraid of hurting either myself or the lenses. Maybe I am just too dumb...but really, they're awful to me.



With one lens in. Notice the difference?


Both lenses. Puppy eyes. -w-


Both lenses and messy make-up. Love this dolly look though!











Design/Appearance: ♥♥♥♥♡

The design is pretty simple and not that outstanding. I already owned a pair of black lenses before and they were quite similar to these ones. But I really like how they make the eyes appear like a porcelain doll's. Another thing I like is how the colour is fading inwards, which makes the lenses blend in with my own eyecolor really well. I'm sure this is a big advantage for people with very light eyes that are looking for black lenses.

Colour: ♥♥♥♥♥

This is simple. They're black. That means, on my really dark eyes, the coverage is perfect and as mentioned above, they blend in really well. I am not sure how the coverage will look like on light eyes though. The natural eyecolour will probably also make a difference when it comes to looking natural. On dark eyes the lenses don't look that unnatural, but I am afraid that they might look a little harsh on light eyes.
But since I have dark eyes, I am 100% satisfied with the colour.


Enlargement: ♥♥♥♥♡

Compared to the black lenses I had before, these are a little less enlarging although they're the same size. The difference is visible though. Especially with make-up and lashes on. No reason to complain then! :)


Comfort: ♥♥♥♥♡

Getting the lenses into your eyes is super easy again. Not really suitable for beginners with circle lenses in my opinion, since they're medium sized and I'd recommend people who are new to circle lenses to start with a smaller diameter, but for people that are more experienced with circle lenses this should be a piece of cake. The water content isn't really high so wearing them for too long can be a little hurtful, but I have worn them for about 6 hours already and had no troubles except for when I wore them for the first time. My eyes hurt a little then, but guess there was some make up left on my hands when I put them in or something.


All in all, I am totally happy with the lenses and the service of KLENSPOP. The lenses are so awesome and unusually cheap. Please check them out, I promise you won't regret it. And if you're looking for good black lenses, go with Lucifer Elf Black. They're my new favourites and I'll probably wear them more often, maybe also in school sometimes. :)
Thanks to KLENSPOP for sponsoring the lenses. I really love them!

---

I am probably going to change some things about this blog design. If you're following me on Twitter you might have noticed that I don't feel well at the moment. I am going through some unnecessarily frustrating stuff and I need a change in my life again.
Also, I am not really interested in J-Rock anymore except for about 3 bands or something. Maybe I'll start posting about my everyday life again, who knows.
But there's going to be a change...I just don't know where it goes yet!
See you!
