For the past year I have been more active in the Canadian gyaru community, trying to get the group talking and a little bit more lively. In result I organized a few meet ups~! Apparently I am the leader of the Ontario community. Here is a look at almost all the meetups we have had in the past year.

☆Blogging Again☆
Heeeey everyone! I am happy to say that the crazy monkey gal is back!! Look at all this RADY inspired layout going on! :D lol do I look any different?? --->
I think my life is more eventful now and worth blogging about. I debated whether or not to delete my old posts, but decided not to because that's where I started from and it would be a shame to get rid of them :) So many positive... and some negative things have happened since the last time I made a real blog post which was about 2 years and some change, and i'm excited to share them and my everyday life! I have been holding down a job since way back last year, and finally making some $$$....Lol i'm still broke because I have so many things to pay T__T. Also, I have made some amazing gal friends in my province and around Canada, and now a part of a gyarusa.
When I stopped blogging, I kinda slowly started to read fewer blogs, and then for the longest time completely stop reading blogs (With exception to the few I run into on fb that seemed interesting). I have mostly been around and updated about other gals in the fb communities....but I find it's mostly drama and great gals are overshadowed by the fame seekers and the trouble makers. So before I prepared my blog for it's new journey, I decided to immerse myself back into the gal blog community by going on a hunt for new gals, old gals I adored, popular gals and everything in between.
My reaction to the results of my hunt was... WHAT THE HELL IS ALL OF THIS NONSENSE!

I can't even explain. I'm going to have to save that for another post because that business needs to be put in a damn list. Obviously not all of what I found was bad! There are lots of woooonderful gyaru and gyaruo out there now and i'm looking forward to following their gal lifestyle. Some of the gyaru that were newbies at the time of my old blogging days are now amazingly beautiful gals and well known, which is so exciting. But sadly some fantastic gyaru that use to blog, don't anymore or they do not even look the slightest bit gal :( .
ANYWAYS! I will be posting about 2 or more posts a week!
You can also see what i'm up to on intsagram @Cakepoyo if you don't already.
Let's talk! I would love to get to know more of you guys around the world. If you're a creep hiding on my fb...say hi once in a while...>___>
Follow me on my new journey!

I am an otaku girl so at a point in 2005, I kinda saw a picture or two of Ganguros and manba when I looked for anime for some reason, but i didn't know what it was or anything. A year later I started getting a manga magazine called Shojo Beat. While reading my favorite Manga In the Magazine, I cam across a character that was tanned and cute. ( :D took me a while to find )
Lucky for me, there was a sub text saying *She is a ganguro. see page ??? for article.

Canada Day Code
HEY~!♥
Happy Canada day to all the Canadians :D (It was yesterday but today is a holiday)
Yesterday I had lunch and boba tea with some friends and saw some fireworks later that day, it was so much fun!
Here was my code and hairstyle from yesterday.
(I get dressed before I do makeup sorry♥)
I loved my hair that day because the loose curls were perfect~!
Lol I have been noticing that my heels were scratching my floors just a bit and I don't really keep my shoes in my room so I decided to slip on my slippers instead :p
You can't see in the pic since my body was so awkwardly positioned, but I was wearing a fox tail.
:D It's a new one I got in April at Toronto's Chinatown with my bf (:p The pic was for a post I was suppose to do a while back)
When my friends and I went for lunch, the cutest little girl snuck out of her seat to play with my fox tail 

It was adorablllllllleeeee~! I got to pick her up and hug her~! >w< I just wanted to claim her as my little sister♥

Adieu♥

☆Using Bottom Lashes + A Day With A Friend☆
Heeelloo~
I am so happy because I wore bottom lashes for the first time!
...
Well they are "technically" not bottom lashes XD
I can't really order any diamond lash or anything like that online at the moment, so I decided to get a little crafty. You can't get the type of bottom lashes that Diamond Lash and Dolly wink offer, in Canada.
Soo~
I dissected a pair of top lashes and made them into bottom lashes~
I tried my best to make it look like the 2nd Series No. 4 Sweet Eye Lower Lashes
I wish I made the lashes more droopy ( >_> need to practice more)
I also have to say I have fallen in love with Gel Eye Liner!
In my opinion when you use pencil/crayon on darker skin, it looks really faded or starts out nice but in an hour or so starts to look really gross. The Gel stays on nice and bold and noticeable all day for me :)
I prefer this over the liquid liner I was using because it shows up nice and doesn't drip down into the eye.
Anyways♥
The reason I got all dolled up, was to have dinner with my BFF :D
This restaurant was sooo gorgeous and the food was amazing!!
Lately my friend has been taking me to a lot of Vietnamese restaurants because I never had Viet food. She had brought me to Pho 88 In Feb, and I am now hooked XD
Pretty entrance and my Boba Tea♥
Mmmm my Veit BBQ Pork * Q*
Crazy spicey Pho
And like the fatties we are when we got back to her house we made the most yummy chocolate oatmeal cookies ever! From scratch too!
Loved every minute with her and all the delicious food!!
Adieu♥
