scan progress + new spotify playlist

 

I feel like changing my blog design again later ngl xDD

But only the background...everything else seems fine to me I guess..

2 days ago I had a little chat with Ray and we talked about magazines and scans etc.

While talking I noticed that I actually have quite a good collection.

Lately, idk I finish scanning smth and then I see the scan somewhere else and it made me feel so stupid, cuz why scan smth if it's already scanned? plus I admit my scanner sucks..

it makes the pics quite washed out and it's really bright for some reason too..

I always thought better something than nothing but it doesn't really apply if scans already exist in a better quality somewhere else...HOWEVER..

while we chatted I found this post of gogogal about rare jp mag saying Rose is such a rare mag and they barely found pics of the cover.

I had to laugh tbh bcuz I got them back in 2021 and didn't even exactly know what it was...and I had already posted some pics of inside on my blog after I received them.

I just looked for hime stuff on mercari via buyee (100+ pages) and somehow found it.

I also got my hime meiku book this way too.

But it made me take a step back and look at my collection in a diff way.

We both noticed: there are barely,if none, scans of larme as well?

And I got them 1-59 complete, without gaps.

Then: I also have quite some agehas. You can find ageha scans online but never...complete? you know what I mean.. It's always some here, some there.

Except march-december 2011, I have from vol.1 until 2013 ageha complete.

I also own comic ageha.

So technically, you'd have them all at once at my space.

With Sweet the same thing: Here and there I found some, but I have 2017 and 2018 complete.

which is pretty much post-gyaru in some way..

The books I own also are quite rare apparently...some already got scanned but not all of them.

So it kind of cheered me up, that my work is at least not for a waste..

in some way, you have more or less the girly scan collection in my place..

the others focus a lot on egg and ganguro mags A lot of early y2k too. 

Whereas mine is a lot hime, himekaji, girly, pink etc.

My scan collection serves purpose to "that type" of gal I guess haha.

That being said, I decided to drop the "super rare" scans of Rose HAHAHA.

Tell all your friends and family to come to my place..I just served the rare volumes xDD

I personally think vol.2 is a looot better than the first volume.

I think I had seen back in 2021 another issue of Rose on Buyee but the seller wanted an abnormal price for it (and I think it was a jewelry or interior special or smth if I remember correctly), so I said NOPE don't need it that much.

But it seems gone..

Well, I will scan Blenda next..but only bcuz it's far in the top of my "other" mags in the list and I mentioned since over a week that I wanna do it lmao.

After that I think I will focus on Larme mostly but also continuing my ageha step by step.

Ray told me to make an account on archive too...I will consider it.

While scanning I made another playlist.

You remember the heisei gal songs that were on youtube etc.?

I was so nostalgic to it...so there's a new playlist.

I didn't know what to name it, bcuz it doesnt necessarily have to be heisei only.

J-pop also seems wrong, it is a specific kind of j-pop.

Decided for the name Dreamy gyaru now hahaha...because the songs have a dreamy romantic vibe to it.

It's a playlist for the girlieees...

also of course there aren't many songs yet tbh but I will add over time..

AAAnd...I am not done yapping yet.

I feel like doing some make tutorials on my blog soon.
I remember in the good old days how ppl posted their makes as tutorials..
I know they still do on tikitaki but honestly I hate these videossss..

first of all, a lot don't properly show the make and second, I dislike the video format for this kind of stuff HAHA.

I rather have a pic to analyze...idk, am I weird?

plus I miss doing more special makes with different colors..I have SO MANY pallettes and do brown every day?? I mean ok, it is normal...it's the casual thing to do..

Tomorrow I will do a mix of my make I did here and my gyaru makeup.. I want to focus on the Jocyee palette, also because my brushes r still dirty from these colors, before washing it makes sense to use them that way haha.

It will be a Rokku/Goshikku-make then I guess...I believe with the sharp green lenses I currently own it will serve even better vibes!!

I hope my phone makes pics that are sharp enough tomorrow..

I remember the last time I managed making quite sharp pics of my make was on my dining table between kitchen/living room. 

It's the only place I can take pics..but honestly what lashes did I use? They seem so boring on this pic haha
Also this was close to a smokey eye make and you barely see how dark it actually was?

as you can see, the pics barely take the color I actually use then...

This one was very red for example..

Soo..idk if I will be able to take proper pics..

regardless, I try tomorrow...

xoxo rinmero

Edit: decided to make one other playlist public..

It's a little bit older, I just remembered I have it...I called it Roku Gyaru (because the number 6 roku sounds like rokku, that's one of my personal slang lmao). It consists of rock songs, but with only girl vibes..

I figured maybe some of you liked that too?
It has waay more songs because I used to be heavy into rock/metal..It's still one of my fav music genres tbh..
