WCS, Mam and Innocent World

:::::::::::::::::::::::: LOLITA ORDERING??? ::::::::::::::::::::::::
Does anyone know if Mam and Innocent World allow international english orders?

::::::::::::::::::::::::WCS::::::::::::::::::::::::
"What is important today is that Giorgia is the best cosplayer in the world as stated by the jury that she certainly didn't know and overall with the best costume. What counts is that the Italian team is the best in the world."
yeah, the best in the world at CHEATING? At a competition that is a completely rigged farce. I mean COMPLETELY RIGGED.

what most irks me other than the hurtful things that were done to all the cosplayers OTHER than the Italians, is that lots of ignorant people are going to see the results of this competition and assume that Italy DID win fairly. I have never seen something so insanely rigged in my entire life. See This post, and also this one, a translated response of the Italian go-to boy. Anyone who supports or competes in WCS next year is a complete IDIOT.
I hope that TV Aichi realizes that it is making Japan look bad to outsiders. Thankfully, we know that they don't actually represent Japan...

I really do think that, but it's hard to keep those walls down, isn't it?

my tire exploded yesterday. It took me ALL day to get it fixed and now I'm having to make up hours all week. *_*.

food: YESTERDAY:: 2 eggs, some strawberries, 2 slices of whole wheat toast, a slimfast shake and a beef shabushabu salad with 30 min cardio. TODAY: no cardio... not enough time. ate 2 slimfast shakes, 2 slimfast "snacks", some spinach leaves and a grass-fed burger that Mitch made. Both days I stopped eating before 7 pm and had no booze.

Not to be all HAY U NEEDA DIET or anything (You really don't, but I do know what it's like wanting to shed a few lbs for your own self image), but if you ARE going to diet, don't waste your time with slim fast. You might as well go have some candy or something, it's basically just sugar. Which also explains why another commenter said it doesn't keep you filled-- it's not the fact that it's a liquid, but because your blood sugar skyrockets and then crashes, making you hungrier than if you hadn't had it to begin with. The concept of Atkins, zone, etc. etc. "fad" diets (which have actually been around for years and years-- look at what athletes eat) is to keep your blood sugar stable. I'd recommend munching on unsalted (too much salt will make you feel bloated and worse) nuts as a "no guilt" snack whenever you're craving something. If you've just gotta have sweet, go for berries, they have the most fiber of anything naturally sweet, which will help your blood sugar rise and fall slower.
But definitely ditch those shakes (and the "snacks", unless they're sugar free). If you've gotta do shakes I'd say go for Atkins, even if you don't believe in low-carb, they're sugar free and not bad tasting at all. Slim fast is like drinking chocolate milk or something.

I've been trying the low sugar slimfast ones... are they still not worth my time? it's at least 50% less sugar.

Depending on how much you enjoy them/how sane they keep you, I wouldn't keep drinking them if they had more than say, 10 grams of sugar, or cut down to one a day at least? Sugar is what usually kills people on diets, they cut down on fat but up on sugar to keep themselves satisfied, but then don't get results and quit. It sucks that everything that's easy is full of junk these days :[
