We’ll jump straight into an ocean of stardust

27 December 2014

…Even the shooting stars won’t catch up to us!


Part of my Christmas gift to my awesome adorable spectacularly cute wonderful lovely sister, Siobhan :devdashofcreativity:. :’D

Back in November, she introduced me to one of her all-time Vocaloid songs, “Skyfish”. It was adorable, showed a cute relationship, Rin and Len bickered, had themes of space, dreams, growing up… also, Len literally says Bananafish in the song. The fact that it’s one of her all-time favourite Vocaloid songs – and therefore, songs in general – meant a LOT too.

Another thing she told me about the song, was that it was severely unpopular. On NicoNico Douga (Japan’s equivalent to YouTube), the song has only 17,000 views. That’s not a lot when you think that there’s Vocaloid songs with millions of views…

So I jokingly told her that, for the Kagamine’s birthday/anniversary of creation, I would make “an awesome picture and tell everybody to listen to it so it would become more popular”. Little did she know, I would actually create it, and it would become a poster her Christmas present. :’D So, please give the song (linked below) a listen for us!

The video doesn’t have any English subtitles, but here’s a page that has the lyrics and translation:

Merry Christmas, Siobhan and Happy Birthday Kagamines!!

Food Bank Donation

15 December 2014

Hey everyone!

I wasn’t sure if I should post this, but… last weekend I donated my weight in food to the local food bank. C: I took some of my savings from Ai-kon and bought food when it was on sale so that I could get a good amount of it to donate. I actually wish I could have done more, so many people are in need right now that it’s scary, but I’m planning to eventually donate again! Either another large donation, or maybe many small ones over time, depending on what the future holds.

Thanks for reading and happy holidays! <3
