What am I up to? \(^o^)/

H E L L O   G U Y S 

So, as I said in my earlier post (hair dye review), I'm here to make a little announcement~!

Recently, I've been very busy with college, but, also arranging some other things...

Firstly, I've decided to postpone my trip to Japan, which was supposed to be in 2016.

Why have I decided to do this? Financial reasons. I'm incredibly bad at saving money...

Plus, with me just starting college, I've had a lot of things I need to pay for, like textbooks, etc. 

This has actually been really expensive, and wiped out money I'd been planning on using for Japan..

So, rather than putting myself under stress to afford college whilst also saving up for a holiday,

I made the decision to postpone the holiday until perhaps when I study there for a year at Uni.

(Unless I get my £10,000 before then. In which case, I'll be having a hella rad holiday.)

It was also looking like Jamie wasn't going to be able to afford to go in 2016, as he's having job issues.

My parents would never let me go on holiday to Japan for a week alone, so I'll have to wait. 

Secondly, I'm going to be attending the Hyper Japan Christmas Market 2014 this November~!

I've never actually been to HJ before, but I'm super excited to go because I think I may be modelling!

I have applied to perform there on the stage, also. But I think I left that too late. ToT

Even so, I still applied for the Karaoke Contest and the Fashion Show~~~ *fingers crossed*

The day when I'll be attending the convention is: Saturday 15th November, 2014

So, if anyone else (in the UK obviously) is going, I could meet you guys~! \(^o^)/

In fact, I would actually really enjoy meeting some of you guys, so if anyone's gonna be there,

Shoot me and email and we'll arrange to meet up, even if it's only to say hello and take a selca, etc.
My email is: alishatheotaku@hotmail.co.uk

I've been thinking about taking a short vacation in Sweden when Alcon is happening~

But, I haven't arranged anything for certain yet, so that may end up not happening. (Probably.)

Sweden has been on my list of places to visit for a long long time, due to various reasons:

1. I really love the look of the country, especially Stockholm, I've always wanted to go

2. It's super cheap to fly there (literally, it's like £10)

3. The J-Fashion community in Sweden is HUGE.

I will be attending London MCM Expo next May, and will hopefully be performing there, too~

Again, this is a chance to meet up with those of you who read this blog in the UK

And, there are quite a lot of you xD

I actually did meet someone who knew of my blog at the MCM Expo in May 2013~!

Also, I met up with some other bloggers/Jfashion fans~ AbiPop and Kimonotime~!

That concludes my announcements~
