/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Just wanted to post saying that over the years I've made 2 very good friends via 4chan! One I meet over this type of thread, she lives close enough that we meet up in person sometimes. And the other was on a different board and lives ridiculously far away. Good luck to seagulls and making new friends < 3

Just leaving a note of how my visit went with her, it went super excellent!

At first when she arrived I was a bit skeptical because she kind of had a bitch face going and was afraid she would be too much of a serious type to be interested in j-fash or things. But I finally got brave enough to ask her where she was from, and she said Toyko! I proceeded to ask if she liked harajuku and she also said yes. I think we talked about food for a bit before I asked about fashion, and then she actually asked me if I knew who Kyary Pamyu Pamyu was! Of course I said yes and said I liked Pon Pon and Candy song. She knew what I was talking about and we watched those music videos for a bit, then showed me her favorite which was Fashion Monster. She asked if I ever had been to Japan which I have not, and said I would love to visit Angelic Pretty store there. I showed pictures for her to better understand and she was so surprised that I knew what lolita was! She showed me pictures of famous fashion girls she liked, one of which was AMO. I think she really liked lolita but she mentioned it was expensive so never tried it.

I feel really bad for her though because she was with my grandma for a month and is leaving tomorrow, and I don't think she had an enjoyable time here. My grandma is a bit hard to live with and she had to work in a White Spot for awhile? (I'm not really sure how that works, maybe volunteer or something that the exchange program does). My parents even said after they all left that apparently my grandma was having a hard time with her because she was really shy. And I can't imagine being dragged from place to place visiting with a bunch of people that don't even try to talk to her is very fun (probably explains why she looked so grumpy when she first got to my parents place).

But I found our visit very enjoyable and I think she did too! We exchanged emails and she even took a photo with me! Sorry for such a long post, Merry Christmas everyone!
