Very very short and underwhelming update post

Well, vacation turned to a semester, and a semester turned into fasting, and sure enough, I am the forgotten Cat-chama. Will you forget me too?

(loud cough that goes on for way too long) 

Not much has really happened; and yet, just enough has happened to make me forget I have a blog...well, Ramadan makes anything interesting, and so does a cold. I got a cold on theeee...3rd day. So the 4th day, yesterday, was a horrible day to fast, and yet, I did it. I kept groaning a ton, I was barely able to speak...man, this is probably one of the worst colds I've had in a while...(emeto warning) this morning, I vomited a little bit, and until I went to the clinic, I just kept fasting with dried-up vomit in the back of my throat...ugh. Apparently IV drips and oxygen therapy break your fast. Guess who got a halloumi sandwich! ^u^ It was dry...I'll be back to my normal fasting schedule tomorrow (lol)

I've been feeling so weird...not breathing enough. Not sleeping enough. My lips are so dry...

The semester itself...it's been a bit hard to catch up, and I'm afraid. I feel really lost. I need to lock in. I'm watching a pharmacology lecture video as i write this. So maybe I'll be ok...good news, after a week of no updates, my package with the 9 Zany Zap Press newsletters (that i had to ship on their own because apparently they weighed a whopping 1.2 kg!!! I should've guessed...it's all paper, after all) should arrive tomorrow or the day after...bad news, I won't get it for the next two or three weeks. Well, it depends on when I'll see my parents...I won't be too mad if it'll be a bit, there's still another package to expect, and THAT package should, according to my calculations (read that in a nerd voice or something lol), arrive sometime next week...I'm excited for that, at least, but I really need to focus...

I don't have much to say. MO4 is still annoying me.

Bye!

It was fun!

 

HERE LIES...My Vacation...
Jan. 20th ~ Feb. 10th
Lasted a bit longer than I expected~ (lol)

Well, now it's over, and I'm back to normal uni life...

I feel really sappy and sentimental. It was my first time here in nearly half a year...and it was wonderful. I got everything I wanted and more, and it was such a heartwarming time...which is why I wasnt blogging too much. And my laptop will probably die on me...so I wanna keep this short (lol) but I dont want another minipost. 

Some highlights:
Going to accessories place and getting myself bangles, a jewelry holder, and phone charms
Going to accessories place again to get my uni friends gifts
Getting another Juicy Couture perfume
Having my first Buyee haul in half a year
Going out for lunch reaaalllllllyyyyyy often and enjoying it all

Getting myself something for my vanity from Daiso
Getting myself a new card holder, also from Daiso

Getting to Ch. 7 of Marikin Online 4 and the first quest being so painstakingly annoying that I couldn't get myself to finish it and now I'm stuck on it and kinda unable to continue and it's really just self-inflicted and this always happens and I just wanna get to postgame let me get to fucking postgame I'm 6 years late just let me get to postgame dude

Drawing the world's worst Junko fanart

Finding my mom's cute old rings that she let me have!

I'm happy that my hard work allowed me to have a nice vacation; it's because of this that i need to keep it up in the second semester! I have to work even harder, and i have to try and work as much as i can in Ramadan, too, which is gonna be a challenge...but my midterms are gonna be right after it, which suuuuuuuuuuucks...well, like I was saying, I have to keep up the good work! If i could succeed this term, surely I'll succeed in the next, but only if I don't skimp out on catching up with lectures, testing myself, and doing what I can. I know you can, too!!!

I'm also really excited for my Buyee haul!! They're being slow...but an inquiry sent to them told me why, so good luck, Buyee. Of the things I got, one of them is this set of Golden Bomber newsletters, but not just any newsletters...ZANY ZAP PRESS NEWSLETTERS! >u<!!!! They had Autumn and Winter 2011...part of me is hoping I get to see 2011 KNBK All-stars (but that's probably in the Summer '11 issue so I should just die) but I know I'll see 2012 All-stars so I'm not too pissed. I also got this cool photobook of them called Golden Bomber Kanzen. It's more of a mook...but it's just me wanting to use a cool name. It's just a cool photobook. It's from 2013, and all the pics I've seen of the pages are from the Hadaka no Ousama 2013 tour. It seems nice~ a bit of an impulse buy, though (lol)

Another burando (kinda) win for this haul, too. I got a cheap Lizmelo tote from a lottery. Yay~

And now, for captioned Henriette pictures spam.

Me playing MO4, Ch. 5 or 6? I felt really peaceful in this moment.
I was eating leftover Chilli's mashed potatoes. 

This CG looked funny

Accessories place haul 1

Accessories place haul 2

She is cute and good with my bracelets.

Someone help this drowning girl!

Before I go, I guess I can add a bit of length to this post and talk about a weird dream I had.

It's a bit fragmented, but what i remember is, as usual, being in a huge apartment complex with one strange quirk; the staircases from floor to floor would keep disappearing and shifting places, forcing me to jump from one window to the other...I could feel my heart beating, i think i was in this loop of constantly jumping...I remember wearing a party dress, the kind that's for kids. 

Good night!

I hope the duty free has more JC perfumes...(pien)

Approach everything with humility

 

Hi, I'm Cat, I finally beat Ven Kinako, and now im stuggling to progress regardless, but hey, Jack and Koritora are here~ And my Syumitaro finally has a fucking skill (lol)

Currently writing this on my phone, not a usual thing for me. For one, formatting on here is hellish, the images have a mind of their own, but it's 5 AM and i closed my laptop already. 

Today was a nice day, I ate at Chili's~ they bought my favorite appetizer back! The spinach queso...it's just as good as I remember it being. Shame it's a limited edition dish...then i went to the supermarket with my dad and got a cinnamon donut and coffee as a treat!

Ok, let me bitch and whine a little bit.

I already talked about this in another post, but i feel like im at some weird standstill when it comes to doing anything creative. For blogging, it's fine, for writing, meh, not sure, but for drawing, that's where everything's going to shit, mentally speaking. I just can not, for the life of me, do this anymore. I really can't. I feel like a gallery of wasted potential. Well, it's really no one's fault but mine because I have this habit of not wanting to draw unless I am totally and entirely sure people will pay attention to me for it. If i get no attention, it's the same as getting nothing out of it. And if i get nothing out of it, then it's not worth it to ever try and draw again...It's honestly disgusting...i want to draw for myself again. I want to be able to draw again. I want to do more for myself. But then again, me wanting this doesn't come from a place of altruism, if anything, it's the polar opposite; my need to draw for attention is selfish, and so is my need to draw for myself, so i really cant win, and i dont know what to do, it's been taking a toll on me all night. Every second i was awake, i felt like scum, it was all i could think about...

But then again, that hate and feeling of Whatever This Is made me wanna distract myself, and distract i did...I progressed some more in MO4, and now im on a raft, and i dont know what to do, its pissing me off. This might be the worst area in the game. But then again, i say that about every area in the game...

My left ear feels like it's gonna explode...well, I'll make this a minipost (lol). Good night!

Couture Couture induced manic state

 

2026 will be the year of...perversion, no academic failures, surrounding myself with nice girls and hot dudes, and...

COLLECTING A BUNCH OF JUICY COUTURE PERFUMES!!!

Well, surely i dont need every JC perfume, no? (lol) But I just got another one thanks to my mom! She is utterly beautiful...

Behold...Couture Couture~ my only other JC perfume is Viva la Juicy, so this is a very very nice addition. It smells like an assortment of sticky honey-coated fruits, decadent and sweet. To me, it's perfect; a very unique scent profile, distinctly feminine, distinctly...Couture. I looooove the honeysuckle scent, I can't stop smelling it.
It's from 2009, so it's on the older side of JC perfumes...she's kinda like Viva la Juicy's cool and cute oneesan. Despite VLJ releasing a year before CC...

Maybe i need to stop here.

It smells good. If you like sticky sweet white floral scents, buy this. Mine was missing that charm but i dont care (lol). It was so very worth it.

Ok, I know i started that post off with my perfume, but to make it longer and better, I'm gonna talk about the mall. I went to the mall today! And of course, I took pics with Henriette...

One of the things at Daiso that i thought looked cute...
Didnt see a reason for buying it. Maybe once I pick up sweets deco? (lol)

Dogs of any age find certain noises appealing.

Cute tissue pack...i wanna mochimochi asobi too..

Shouldve gotten it. ;-;

I originally came for this jewelry stand i wanted to get, but couldnt find...

So i left empty handed =.= the oshikatsu selection there suuuuuuuucks.

Over-exposure ruined this but i wanted to take my obligatory necklace pic.

The power of not knowing who Narciss Kenji is shines within you.

I ate too much bullshit, I went to the cinema and had nachos...

But a few hours after I came back, after inhaling too much of my perfume...fumes, I finished what is possibly one of Egypt's best worst movies, Mo7taram ela Roba3 (The title translates to something like decent save for a 1/4th??? but thats too literal. The imdb page has this english title for it thats like three quarters decent so i think thats a better tl lol)

Mohamad Ragab is really cute. In this movie you can see him do a lot of things, such as be beaten nearly to death, get married afterwards like its nothing, get drunk, destroy a cake, do epic parkour, shave his beard off...it's really good if you like Mohamad Ragab. Reading up on his acting career was fucking crazy. What did this movie DO. After it, he stopped starring in movies for a good 4 years. And i dont know what the reason actually was so ill just assume that this movie was so abhorrent it made him stop doing movies for a good 4 years

That and also his acting debut was fucking LE DESTIN? THE YOUSSEF CHAHINE MOVIE? WITH MOHAMAD MOUNIR? Im getting a headache...

Now i need to watch every movie hes been in, ever. Welcome to my club of rando ikemen...(shoves him in)

C........ckchkgh............cuuuuuuuuute............

Not the best frame, though.

Not a lot of guys look cute after sobering up, getting a life and shaving their beard. But he does~

So much for sobering up, getting a life and shaving your beard. But after this, he saved his family from random kidnappers, so it's almost like he DIDN'T fuck those twin sisters, haha!

Worst and most confusing watch yet, typical of a Sobky movie. Very perverted with the cleavage shots and sex jokes, and the...abuse and kidnapping. 10/10. I hope to never watch this movie again.

Good night! My stomach hurts really bad and it's super late.

76% pass rate, huh

 

Hi, I'm Cat, and I can't beat Ven Kinako.

The toilet from MO4.

That's their name.

Ven Kinako.

I...I can't, for the life of me, get past turn 14 at most...ugh.

Well, well, well~ Vacation's here. I initially got scared thinking my exam results would come out today, but turns out that's just for other faculties...but ours is soon to come. 

Just let me pass biochem and histology...

They said that the biochem module actually had a 76% pass rate. Genuinely crazy...

Enough uni talk, please. Everytime i talk about results here, it never works in my favor...

Ok! So, I'm back home, and this time, it was my first airport trip alone. 

Not much pics for this, but before I left, I hung out with my friends one last time to get lunch. I got chinese food and it was GOOD! I enjoyed it heavily...but I had to leave quick.

Going to the airport alone ended up being...less hard than I thought. But GOD, was waiting stressful! I did what I could to close the lights...but I think I forgot to close one on the way out...shit. OR MAYBE I DID. And everythings actually totally super OK.

...I sneakily ate a Kinder Bueno on the way there. Rude...

That's me in my mom's old coat. According to her, I'd barf on it as a baby.

...the barfer has become the wearer.

It's a very stylish coat~~~

The duty free is an absolute must whenever I'm at the airport. There, they had a whole shelf of...JUICY COUTURE PERFUMES!!!! EEK!!!! I was fangirling so hard, facetiming my mom like LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND. JUICY!!!!!!!!!! 

...Much to the chagrin of the suited-up staff dude. Sorry dude. 

Well, he seemed excited to show me everything. My mom wanted me to check for these specific Narcisco Rodriguez perfumes, patchouli musc and jasmine musc. They only had patchouli musc...

I was gonna get her a perfume. That is a stupid idea, but, well, I am full of stupid ideas...when it comes to giving, I am too ambitious, only to end up doing fuck-all. I did get her some mascara she's been wanting, though. Seeing how happy she was made it all the worthwhile <3 

My biggest regret?
...not taking any time to smell anything.

Save for one perfume! I think it was that C'est moi one. 

As expected for JC it smelled absolutely fucking delectable. I need it. I need her. I need her. I need her. I need her. I need her. I need her. I need...

Candid pic I took after leaving the lounge (which I ate a bunch of fish in...)
I love this cologne, designwise.

Again...heavily regretting how I didnt smell it...it seems sexy. I will only get married to a man if he smells like this cologne (whatever it may smell like) daily, through sweat and filth, through...not sweat and filth, all day, every day! (<- Going boy crazy again)

Waiting for the plane...
Uhm, it got delayed by half an hour. 

It was a very painful 5 minutes of standing...

And now I'm home~~~
It's nice here, I'm gonna go out tomorrow! I'm so excited ^.^

The weather when I left was pleasantly cold...I'll really miss it when spring comes. 

Spring is a season I have mixed feelings towards. Feels like a beacon of hope, but it's when things go to shit academically...

But, the weather is always so nice. It feels nice. It is nice. Spring is nice.

Ah, and there's Ramadan!

It's in...like...three weeks...ugh...fasting in my dorm is gonna be difficult. I can barely get myself to eat a proper meal when I'm there!!! 

Besides all this, there isn't much to talk about...I wish there was. 

I've been feeling the usual demotivation-gakkari-cant-get-myself-to-draw-or-write combo, but that's not new...It's really just irrational now, I can't open Wordpad to write, can't open Krita to draw, can't progress in Marikin Online 4...I want to be the center of attention in my own head again u.u it feels like there's no motive for me to do any of those things...no reward, no moral, nothing. It just makes drawing and writing feel pointless, but I feel that way all the fucking time, so i think it's about time i change it already...

Don't get it twisted I still wanna make R18 Golden Bomber doujins

I might open up an old fic and continue it to the best of my ability...but it's 2 A.M now. And I'm kinda sleepyyy...

Oh, check out my new label for Henriette (iPhone 6) posts. I'll add all my posts with iPhone 6 pics to that label soon, so...uhm, check in a bit.

Bye!
