Halloween 2015!

Happy Halloween! I woke up on Halloween, pretty much my favourite day of the year, sick with a very bad cold! So I couldn't go out to celebrate. I had to stay home, which really sucked. On the bright side, I got to eat snacks and watch cartoons in my pajamas. I pretty much do that every day anyway, but it was still not too bad. I also studied some Japanese, so that was really good. It also didn't hurt that I spent the evening on a nice Tylenol PM buzz. Now that's not something I can do every day. ;) 

As for my costume, I was going to wear a kigurumi anyway, so I actually wore that for part of the night, as they're pretty much (just like really cute & decorative) pajamas anyway. I got it at FanExpo in September and I actually hadn't gotten a chance to wear it yet. Budgie! 

Today I'm still sick, but by the time it became evening, after being cooped up all day in this dark apartment (it's a basement and we get absolutely no sunlight at all in here),  I just HAD to go for a walk! As per usual lately, I discovered new streets and little neighbourhoods that I've never seen before. Well, I've only been here two months, and this city is sooooo extremely huge, so I guess that's normal! It's so exciting. I wandered down a huge alley that was 3-4 blocks long & decorated so cutely. (It reminded me a bit of Osaka!) It was so serene: just me, the alleyway, Please Save My Earth on my earphones, the city lights above...I felt so cozy & creatively-inspired. I'm really, really, really loving exploring this city, it's really hard to put it into words...
