Carousel: Mind, Body, & Soul

August 2, 2018

Back to back carousel post because what the fvck happened to me this past month? You betcha! This past month has really made me think about myself, where I am and where I want to be, and who I want in my life. I’m a huge pessimist – I have a tendency to look at the glass as half empty and find fault in just about everything, especially myself. Now before I get sentimental let me say that I managed to prove myself completely wrong and challenged myself in ways I wouldn’t have thought possible this whole month. Therefore this carousel is dedicated to new beginnings, goals, and setting the bar; To stepping out of your comfort zone and having an okay state of mind. Mind, body, and soul, baby!

Mind.

One small thing a day. Believably, I haven’t designed or created a single thing until late last night, technically today (which also explains why Instagram has been quiet). Recently, I had the opportunity to learn about GoDaddy’s CEO, Bob Parsons, and his rules for success. One that isn’t outlined in this article, yet became a topic of conversation over the weekend, was that you should commit to doing one small thing a day for your own business. Simple, and incredibly effective!

Get your groove back. This past month was filled with lows. My typical self would have rolled over and let everything mentally and emotionally beat me up, except for some reason, this time I said NO. I decided to reclaim what was mine after two abusive relationships (love and non). I’m getting there, but I’m not fully confident, powerful, fierce as I know I could be. Gala Darling’s read on getting your groove back. Gala Darling is known for her Radical Self Love project, and is one of the fiercest ladies in the blogosphere!

Women are fierce. PaperMag recently made a post about Object As Subject’s new song, REMOVAL, which envisions a world of women in power. Whether a fan of the music style or not, this video is worth your time, as is PaperMag’s commentary.

Body.

In State Travels. I’m captivated by Spell & The Gypsy Collective’s blog post on traveling from Sedona to Monument Valley (and the pictures! I spy Antelope Canyon!). Once the weather becomes less intense, I’m planning to travel using this guide.

Chemical Bonding. Did I mention I’m basically in love with the feeling of being in love, especially with the right person? Lately, I’ve been feeling motivated to take better care of myself: I smile more, I dress up a lot more and actually bother caring about how I look rather than bumming it out 24/7, and I pretty much feel like I’m on cloud 9. Not only that, but I’ve also noticed that my mood is a lot better and I have more energy. Naturally, I stumbled across this article about how to tell if you’re chemically bonded to your significant other. 

Get out and Explore. One of my goals is to explore more of what’s around me, whether that’s in state, nationally, or internationally. I figure it’s best to do baby steps, so I’ll start with in state travels and work my way up. Atlas Obscura’s guide on the elements of an essential explorer’s pack is a fun read that will definitely have me ready for when I’m ready to venture out!

Make travel meaningful. Well & Good’s article on transformative travel and what it means for us as millennials is a fun and enlightening read. I’ve been noticing these types of travels through well known YouTube Vloggers such as power-couple FunForLouis and RayaWasHere. Whenever I decide to travel internationally, I can only hope to make all my travels as meaningful, especially with my significant other / friends.

Speaking of travel, I’m dying to go on a cruise. Actually, I want a cruise to be my next trip to be on a cruise – ideally to Hawaii since I’ve yet to visit. Travel and Leisure is highlighting Uncruise Adventures, as they’re promising to show their passengers the wild side of Hawaii, the Pacific Northwest, and more. That is, if I don’t decide to wait for Richard Branson’s new cruise line next year!

Soul.

Cultural Awareness. I’m absolutely in love with how Adam Koziol has been documenting dying tribal cultures around the world. As My Modern Met states, this is a race against time. Just today I was reading that a few Mexican indigenous cultures are on the verge of being wiped out as well.

Working out is fulfilling. First I have to say that I’m officially addicted to sports bras. Secondly, I’m starting to enjoy going to the gym every once in a while. Due to having a lighter schedule than I’m used to, I’m often finding ways to distract myself. Going to the gym has actually become something I look forward to, especially if I’m able to take care of myself and my body along the way. Since I don’t want to invest in a gym membership, I’ve started using Self’s tips on starting a workout program without joining the gym.

Danyy here! Most times you can find me at the photo pit, other times you can find me babbling on about all things Gyaru.

Did I mention I miss O’ahu a lot? I finally made Did I mention I miss O’ahu a lot? I finally made a blog post about it!
.
Check it out for recommendations, more pictures, and if that’s not enough, head on over to my Instagram stories for a full spam of absolutely everything from that trip! 🌺 🏝 ✨ .
Have you been to O’ahu before? What did you think about it?

Waikiki sunsets are amazing. ✨ . Hawai’i has b Waikiki sunsets are amazing. ✨ .
Hawai’i has been a dream destination for me that was always slightly out of reach. This year before the travel restrictions, I was able to go for a full week while attending a design conference.
.
I’m hopeful that I’ll go back to visit soon! Though I spent most of my time within Waikiki, there’s so much that’s still left to explore. 🌺 🏝 🌊

One thing that really frustrates me is that I don’t have a makeup routine. I just kind of… go with whatever at the time and never can I actually recreate the same look I had a few days ago.
.
Since I work from home, I don’t really have chances to go out and dress up like  I used to anyway, so I’ve been living it up in zero makeup and pj’s all day every day.
.
Now that the セレブーGAL guide is out, I’ve got half a mind to order a new tracksuit too (because yes, I own a Juicy Couture tracksuit from wayyy back in the day).
.
Anyway, here’s my face from a couple of days ago. 🌺 ✨ .

Blog post UP! ↑↑ I may have gone a teeny tiny Blog post UP! ↑↑ I may have gone a teeny tiny bit overboard on this guide but the Serebu Gyaru guide is finally up and running!
.
I wrote about this on one of my previous posts and I really wanted to get this guide going with the different ways to carry Serebu GAL style alongside a few tips. ✨
.
I’m trying to keep a similar format to the original guide which is the Old School Gyaru one, so you can expect more guides in this same style too!
.
Anyway whether you love 90’s-00’s fashion or the more modern and sometimes elegant (life)styles, you’ll want to give this a read!
.
Also per request, I’m already planning out the next guide so stay excited!

Blog post UP! ↑↑ New blog post, kind of! A lot Blog post UP! ↑↑ New blog post, kind of! A lot of new followers despite my inactivity so hi there! I’m Danyy.
.
I’ve been in the gaijin gyaru community since around 2007 or so, but I’ve never been quite the participant. My favorite style technically is kurogyaru and favorite gal brand is D.I.Aspec (RIP).
.
For quite a while, I’ve been into oldschool gyaru style (late 90’s early to mid 2000s). My favorite western brands tend to be surf ones.
.
I’m a lover of knowledge, especially when it comes to gyaru subculture and fashion, and while I’m super inconsistent in posting, I really hope the information from my posts makes it worthwhile!
.
Please tell me about yourself! ↓↓

Long time no post! My new promotion happened just Long time no post! My new promotion happened just a while ago, I’ve been dedicating day and night to finding a salesperson for my business (finally found one thank goodness 💕), and this quarantine has me playing World of Warcraft in my spare time.
.
Word on the grapevine is that Japan won’t be shipping out international mail effective in a few days so I’m kinda happy I got my package today (after letting it sit for a month in the system lol). 😂 😅 .
I’m always like a kid at a candy store whenever I get stuff! I focused on getting a lot of old school memorabilia to celebrate my birthday and promotion. A couple of the items even came in their original packaging which was nice too!
.
Now that my schedule is clearing up a bit, I’ll be able to come back to blogging and respond to comments from last month lol. 😂 😭

Blog post UP! ↑↑ Still Alive: Gyaru Brands . T Blog post UP! ↑↑ Still Alive: Gyaru Brands
.
This is a… IDK-How-Many-Parts Series of all of the brands that were forgotten (at the very least by me) but are still alive! I’ve started with the monster that is @anap_official since there are quite a few sub-brands under it that are definitely worth a look!
.
You’ll find the website URL, IG account, and my opinion whether it’s worth purchasing or not. Those that are have sample products and how/why they can be used.
.
I’ll get a bit too business-like here but no brand can actually exist without support, so if you like the products and think they can help your GAL style, please support them by buying the brand(s)!

(Check out my Shopping highlights for the full pic (Check out my Shopping highlights for the full pictures) ✨ .
I spent my entire weekend shopping and honestly I’m pretty tired LOL.
.
Mercari had some pretty good items at great prices this time, so I bought a little more than I had ever done before. I’m still trying to figure out how I managed to do this but it happened!
.
I’m considering this a happy promotion x early birthday present, especially since now I have to save up for the other things in my life. ✈️
.
I’m a bit behind though, so I’m hoping to post about my last gets & coords before traveling for work again!

Blog post UP! ↑↑ What’s your idea of what GA Blog post UP! ↑↑ What’s your idea of what GAL in the future will look like?
.
ViVi recently took a crack at this with Nicole Fujita and after reading about it, I really hope that’s not the reality that Gyaru will be facing.
.
Retro is in; the 90’s primarily! I want to believe that oldschool Gyaru brands and styles will make a comeback for that reason, so I created my own version of what I think the future of GAL could look like. 🌺
