Cherry Blossoms

The signing was fun yesterday! A lot of little girls thought I was Cinderella because I wore this Angelic Pretty blue mermaid dress. When a little 6 year-old girl asks if you are Cinderella, you say yes. :)
Also went out to the cherry blossoms with Oscar and lots of people! It was fun! I wish I could have stayed longer! I can't wait to see all the photos from Friday and Saturday!! .... Poor Oscar had to keep me from falling several times because my rocking-horse shoes are too big for me. I'm still hoping to get my Rose Chocolat shoes (I ordered white Aris ones) before I leave for Japan. If they fit me well I'm going to order some boots, too. I hope they fit. When I tell companies my foot length, they often make shoes too large. *_*
Friday, I was dressed up as the Apothecary from Mononoke (again, not Mononoke Hime!). I met up with slave to anime at the Van Nuys park to foof around in the cherry blossoms (yes, again). The peak was definitely tues-wed. I'm glad I went out a lot this week.
some fun stuff at the Friday shoot... we went and tromped through a big field. I felt like I was on a trek to exorcise demons. haha. at one point I was laying on the cherry blossoms and Jason tried to shake some blossoms on me. Well they were REALLY WET and I got blossoms stuck all over my face. So I'm sure he's going to have like 5 shots of the very-serious-business-Apothecary laughing hysterically with blossoms all over her face. XD (I think the resulting shot though will be pretty neat.) When I took off my costume later, sakura petals fell out of EVERYWHERE.
I had a yakidango for the first time. I'm shocked that it took me so long to try one. Basically they are grilled mochi on a stick... with a sweet soy sauce on them. It was YUM.
I came home to find some tea samples from Go!Comi from Adagio Tea. I'm trying to make some tea blends... so they sent me like I dunno like 40 different types of tea samples. It's crazy!! Right now I am mixing some oolongs, peach and vanilla, we'll see what happens!
