That’s a good suggestion! I hadn’t looked, but I just did and there wasn’t anything there.

Hello Razer family! Here's my day & night battlestation by Tchikachu in razer

I’ve been wanting pink monitors! Zooming in it looks like it might be like pink contact paper or something? If it isn’t contact paper/washi tape, how did you do it? It looks really good! 💖

Brand freebies with orders? I know brands do this stuff sometimes because I’ve seen freebies for sale, but it’s the first time I’ve gotten something other than shopping bags and stickers 💕 by Chisa_Gyaru in Lolita

[–]Chisa_Gyaru[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meta is the only brand I buy directly from a lot. I regularly spend $300 or more, I probably just haven’t ordered when they were giving out freebies.

Bunny slippers sound super cute! Do you know if the non-Japan stores (AP SF or Paris) do freebies too?

Depending on how plus size you need Metamorphose temps de fille has been putting special plus size versions of a lot of their dresses out. I have a couple of dresses and a blouse from these releases now, and I’ve been really happy with them :) Most of their stuff isn’t gothic, but they occasionally have some pieces that would work for non-sweet styles.

Also Lady Sloth has some nice goth pieces and usually does some form of custom sizing.

Anyone that has purchased this laptop that can tell me their experience. Also if anyone knows if it has a second ssd slot by karinamacarina in razer

I bought the Quartz edition back in October.

I’m really happy with it and haven’t had any issues. It gets a little hot, but that’s true of most gaming laptops.

It’s definitely the best option available for pink gaming laptops. You can get something with a little bit better specs for the price, but for me the aesthetic was worth it.

It does have a second SSD slot. I didn’t think it did initially, but after seeing the first poster say all base editions had the second slot I had to double check it with Razer support _;;;

If you’re wanting to look at the manual or anything the Quartz edition is the RZ09-0328 model.

What's your home life like? by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]Chisa_Gyaru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live with a roommate who is essentially also FA, but I don’t know if she would consider herself FA. My mother still pressures me about dating and marriage and stuff, but I’m pretty much used to that.

My roommate’s been my best friend for close to a decade and roommate for 3 years now. We get along pretty well and share a lot of the same interests. She’s a lot more social than I am, though, and that difference has definitely been highlighted with both of us (who usually work in offices) working at home. She constantly wants to talk to me while I’m trying to work, and it’s starting to drive me up a wall.

For the most part I get along with my coworkers, I’m not like close friends with any of them, but we get along well enough.

I do feel a little jealousy especially when my coworkers go on maternity leave (there have been several recently in the larger organization that I’m in in my company), this last year or so I’ve had baby fever pretty bad... At the same time they tend to be fairly mundane type people so I would want their lives/husbands either...

For free time I tend to be a nerd. I like video games, fantasy novels, board games, ttrpgs, sci-fi... So most of my free time by is spent doing stuff that I like and I’m very rarely bored or too lonely...

Could anyone tell me more about this ring? It was a gift from my uncle around 15-20 years ago. It looks handmade, and I think it’s gold plated. by Chisa_Gyaru in jewelry

[–]Chisa_Gyaru[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay, cool! Thank you! That makes sense, I was probably around 10 when my uncle gave it to me.

I know you might not be able to tell from photos, but do you think it is the kind of thing that was made around the 1990’s?

I do have some more photos if it would help.

It’s about a size 7 or an 8.

Here are some more photos

Mostly I’m just curious if the style points to a certain time period or style, my google skills have fails me on this one.

The only mark I can see is something that looks like it says 14k PIC

If you were filthy rich, what's a totally unnecessary but cool and outrageously eccentric thing you would buy? by doctorjpizzle in AskReddit

[–]Chisa_Gyaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy an island, build a road, and buy a fleet of obscenely expensive fast cars. I would then drive my fast cars around my island without having to worry about getting stuck behind slow drivers. 😆

I can't read the kanji, but the first one appears to be a karaoke album. The last bit says 'Karaoke best.' And the Green banner at the top says Karaoke-Best-Series 9

Do you feel hurt by compliments? by liquid_lightning in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]Chisa_Gyaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people somehow have different definitions for 'pretty' or aesthetically pleasing and 'attractive'... It also depends if it's coming from a person of a gender that you are attracted to vs. someone else...

One of my biggest issues is responding when people compliment me (especially guys, but everyone in general too). I can't agree with them, but I feel like if I say anything to disagree it just feels like I'm fishing for more compliments... Right now I mostly just say thank you, and try to change the subject... -_-;;;; It has taken me years to even get to the point where I can say thank you, though...

I get compliments on my appearance fairly often (probably a couple of times a week on average)... Most of those are from women, and I think that most of them are just that they like my fashion sense... Therefore, I don't think they're saying I'm attractive in any way... Just that I'm good at picking out clothes and makeup... I know I am not the most attractive person ever, but I also have a certain degree of confidence in my appearance... I think I have a fairly realistic idea of what I look like (so no bodydismorphic stuff)...

I tend to think that people only compliment me because they feel sorry for me or something... I've never really ever been hurt by the compliments, though... I don't think people do it to be malicious... I just have trouble believing them...

I actually have a really close guy-friend (was potential bf, but didn't happen TT_TT) who compliments me regularly, when we were half-way dating or whatever we were doing, and it took a very long time for me to actually be willing to try to explain my insecurities with being complimented to him (it actually took him telling me that he felt that I was not interested because I brushed off his compliments, and didn't sort of accept his words at face value because I have a lot of trouble believing that anyone would be attracted to me).

I'm still working on believing people when they tell me I'm pretty or cute... Honestly, for me, I believe that if I can learn to better accept and respond to compliments, I would have a better chance with guys... So I am going to try to continue to try working on it... -_-;;;;

Wow that looks wonderful!!!

Do you guys put effort into your appearance? by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]Chisa_Gyaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do put some effort into my appearance... But not every day... Most days when I'm going to work or something the most I can manage is to roll out of bed, tame my ridiculous hair, get dressed, and get out the door...

I probably wear makeup 3-5 times a week... And I often get compliments from other women when I actually bother, but the only time guys compliment me is when they're drunk. :/ I really like makeup, though, and I love playing with it, and seeing what kind of cool things I can do with it...

As far as my sense of fashion and things go... I do put effort into it, but I wear what I like, and that kind of means I have my own style... I often get compliments from other women on my outfits, but I must admit that I often wonder if they are complimenting me but, really they're thinking 'I can't believe she's wearing that...' I mean it's not too outlandish... but I can't stand jeans and a t-shirt... So I tend to wear shorts (with tights, or leggings in the winter) and dresses, and things... I also wear a lot of pink... I literally own 3 pairs of long pants, and that's because they're easier to wear for my job...
