Are any of you vegetarian? How did you make the transition? Any tips?
Latest update - I am going to Japan! I went a few years ago with my dad and brother but it was only for three short days and spent the majority of our trip in Beijing, China. My friend Mike is currently teaching over there so I am going to visit him for a little over a week while his school is on spring break. I am beyond ecstatic! He lives in Minato-ku, Tokyo - so we will be spending the majority of my 10 day trip in Tokyo - I hope to hit up Shibuya and Harajuku again among other places :) . We also are hoping to make it out of Tokyo and head to either Kyoto which I heard is beautiful or to Hiroshima. I will definitely keep this blog updated once I am there. I can't wait for sushi every day and karaoke!!!
Here are some photos from my last trip there:
Also - I am OBSESSED with Blythe dolls.
So naturally I have to scoop up one or two while I am there. I have been doing my homework and tracking down the best toy shops that carry Neo Blythe. There is obviously Junie moon which I will have to go and see - great excuse to get to Shibuya again!
They also carry her at the Kiddyland stores which are so much fun. They carry quite a variety at various Mandrake stores as well. EEEP! I cannot wait for this trip. I have been saving up and it is going to be a blast.
My latest thrifting obsession is to look for the rare 1972 Kenner Blythe dolls. I know she is out there in some dusty box. I need to start going to estate sales and what not and rescue her.
One more crazy Blythe thing - Blythecon 2012, yeah, I think I need to go!
Anyone else obsessed with them?
so jealous! i'm desperate to go to japan, one day i'll have the money! have fun :)
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I am beyond excited to go :]
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm beyond jealous right now! I might get to photograph a wedding in Japan this year so if I do, I will DEFINITELY be buying a new Blythey girl ^_^
ReplyDeleteWow, that would be incredible to be able to photograph a wedding there. I hope you do! You have the cutest Blythes already - so jealous :]
ReplyDeleteCongrats on deciding to be a vegetarian and best of luck! I completely understand and get what you mean by having an issue over eating meat, it is hard thing to stop doing when you've been raised on meat, but I love animals so much and can't even think about how they treat the animals/what happens to the animals or I feel an enormous sense of guilt and sadness. That being said I'm not a veggie-saurus but I've given it much thought over the years. Congrats once again about the trip to Tokyo! Wow, what a lucky girl! I hope you have a fabulous time. I love the Blythe dolls, I've seen images online of them but never knew what they were called.
