FanExpo but Not Really

Today was mostly unplanned but went really well! I initially just wanted to hang out with my boyfriend but since FanExpo was the same day, I met up with people from the J-Fashion server and took lots of fun photos downtown. We saw lots of cool cosplays too. My outfit today was a mix of Old School Lolita and 90's Fruits magazine so I felt super cute. Also, since so many people in the city were dressed up, I didn't feel out of place. Afterwards I headed to my boyfriend's place. On the way, there was a little market where I bought a ring and there was a space to do journaling. I picked up a small journal which I'm planning to use on my France trip. For dinner, I went to Denny's with people from the server and some people we met at FanExpo who are part of the Touhou fandom. I brought my fashion books and was looking through them during my meal. We were maybe a little loud for the Denny's but it was a fun time.

Chilling in Brampton

Today we took my niece to her first baby story time. It was super cute and we learned a new song called "A Hippopotamus got on the City Bus". After that, we went to Chinguacousy Park and looked at the animals and the garden. I brought my camera so we took some cute photos with her. Then we went to Bramalea City Centre for lunch. I had Bourbon St. noodles, chicken and zucchini. It was a chill, fun, cute day.

Despicable Me 4

I love my best friend! For Moni's birthday, we went to see Despicable Me 4. I had a completely different outfit planned for today. I wanted to wear my Batsu Club tie and do more of a Gru themed fit, but I ended up being more of a minion. I gave my tie to Moni for the day. The movie was cute and we went to Winners and Michael's after. At Winners, someone complimented my outfit and I bought a blue eyeshadow pallette and a dress for my niece. At Michael's, they had the Halloween stuff out. I was super happy with my outfit today; it was comfy, colourful and cute. The pins ended up being useful too because I didn't realize the skirt had a huge slit, so I used a pin to hold it together. Banger day.

Circus Time

There were no clowns at the circus, so I was the clown at the circus. My make-up and outfit was clown themed. The show was kinda scary but super cool. At one point, the performer was on the spinning wheel doing jumprope on the outside and he almost fell. I'm not sure if it was part of the show but it scared me. Outside of the show, there was over priced food and souvenirs. There was a super cute cowboy hat but it was $30. Just one pretzel was $10. Even though the prices were ridiculous, I had a great time!
