Nyappy! An Cafe in Essen o(≧∀≦)o

Hey guys (^.^)v

An Cafe is on tour in Europe at the moment

and so my friend Nekoko and I decided to see

them at the live in Essen ^.^

It is a bit far away, but so we had the chance to

visit Düsseldorf before the concert started x3

Düsseldorf as you might know has many japanese inhabitants

and therefore there are many stores which sell japanese stuff

like books/magazines, every day necessities and of course:

lots of food *-*

We wanted to have breakfast in a Japanese backery ♥

I love this place and their delicious food soo much *-*

My food:

on the right for example Anpan and Cornet with Matchcream ♥

Neko's food:

in the front is Kare-Pan ^.^

Afterwards we strolled through some other stores

and bought some onigiri ♥

It's one of my favourite japanese foods.

They also have many onigiris filled with vegetables

and without fish or meat. I choose one with kimchi ^.^

Then we continued our journey to Essen.

I have never visited this town before and we were quite confused

when we arrived at the main station...

But in the metro we met another girl, who visited the concert

and luckily she showed us the way ^.^

Still in the train I took a photo of my hairdo that day.

Nothing special, but I like the hair tie so much x3

a fluffy ball with wiggling eyes ^.^

While waiting at the concert hall some staff member 
of An Cafe came out and took fotos of us, 
which were published at An Cafe's official facebook page *-*

with my friends Neko, Riyoki and Bou ^.^ Bou even made this cute Nyappy-plush all by herself *-*

Since we found the staff members were so cute

we also took a photo together with them *-*

 The concert itself was really awesome *-*
It was my third concert of An Cafe
and definitely one of the best ^.^
For the next time we already planed to get VIP upgrades, too x3

After the encore the band took a photo with us ♥
I didn't found me yet in the picture,
but I must stand some where on the right side, near the
star shaped glow sticks and the Nyappy-plush ^.^

 

Thank you all for the great day (^.^)v

Jupiter in Cologne and new gets (^.^)v

Hey guys (^.^)v

It's time for the first 'real' entry of the year x3

Before I show the new things I got during the last month,

I want to tell you about the Jupiter concert I visited last week in Cologne.

Jupiter basically are the same members as 'Versailles', just with a new vocalist,

as Kamijo has left the band.

Their style of music also stayed largely the same,

just with more pop-elements I think.

This is the outfit I choose for the concert ^.^

and outside I wore my Lolita Coat ♥

We got to Cologne by train. It took us about four hours although we choose the IC (Inter City, the second fastest train in Germany)...

The ride itself was quite boring, so my friend Eiri crafted an origami pelican ^.^

we decided to call him 'Hermann' ^.^

The tutorial for it was published in a magazine which is displayed in the trains. 

The concert itself was really great ^.^

I didn't listen to any of Jupiters songs before the concert,

because I thought they would keep Versailles style of music.

But I was surprised in a very positive way *-*

Especially the new vocalist is amazing ^.^

I know, it's not fair to compare him to Kamijo and I would never say 
one is a better singer or whatever than the other... 
it was just the whole atmosphere that was different.

Zin (new vocalist) has a great voice, smiled a lot and 
animated the audiance to join the paras etc.

In my opinion it was just much more fun than

the Versailles concerts I visited.

Before we would go home by train, we had to wait about three and a half hours at Cologne Main Station. That's actually a pretty little waiting time. Usually we have to wait about five or six hours or even for more for our train to get back home...

but most concerts are worth it ^.^ 

To not fall asleep at McDonalds we all had some coffee at midnight x3

 ~ ☆ ~ ☆ ~ ☆ ~

And now I want to show you the new things I got during the last month ^.^
first is, my new ear plugs and flesh tunel

the two ones in the middle are 10mm
and the pencil likes are 4mm

my skin is so f***ing unclear ;_;

next I have some new fashion items ^.^
one is this dalmatian-style fake fur vest 
it's so warm and fluffy *-*

and a new pair of tights ^.^
black with pink stars on it ♥

the last thing I want to show you
is the birthday present my boyfriend gave to me ^.^
it's so awesome!
it's a tea egg that looks like a manatee *-*
therefore it's 'manatea' xD

the teacup was also part of his gift ♥
it's from one of my favourite animes:
Azumanga daioh!
it's so funny and somehow stupid xD

the character in colour is 'Osaka'
(her real name is Ayumu Kasuga, but she comes as a 
transfer student from Osaka to Tokyo, so she is called Osaka)
she is my favourite character of the series *-*
the other girls are her classmates ^.^
I think the anime is really really funny,
but it doesn't really have a plot or something x3
maybe you want to watch it? ♥

thank you for reading (^.^)v
