My mama was very kind and bought me a replacement battery for my phone because we want to go on a road trip soon but I'm worried about traveling with my poor battery health.
So today the battery arrived and I was working on the repair but I couldn't get the old battery out!!
I soaked it in isopropyl, I pried on it, but nothing made it budge even a little bit...
It's not surprising because this phone is almost 10 years old after all... the adhesive loses it's elasticity eventually and becomes very hard to remove.
I'm generally very scared of lithium ion batteries though and I didn't want to mess with it too much.
So I put half the disassembled phone in a Kuromi sandwich baggie and rode the bus down into town to ask the phone repair shop for help WWWWW
The repair guy was really nice and didn't even laugh at me (I would have) and he just pulled it right out without even charging me for it.

Then on the way home, to cheer myself up (and bc I was feeling totally cooked by the sun) I decided to visit a new cafe in town that I haven't been to before.
It came in silently and I haven't heard anyone talk about it and my imagination was running wild imagining what kind of cuisine it could be...
It seems it's an asian fusion cafe that serves crepes, onigiri, tea and coffee, and other desserts! And they''re open late!!!! Nothing is open late here so that's very exciting!
I took a Da Hong Pao latte with oat milk of course!! How could I resist!
My only complaint is there's actually no ice added to the iced coffee.
but it's no matter because I just added my own ice at home.

Now I'm extremely caffeinated, sunburnt, and my phone repair is finished (I just have to calibrate the battery).
Really hoping the isopropyl I flooded the phone with earlier has all dried and won't cause a problem latter...
I probably walked over 2 miles today so I'm totally beat.

sunglasses...chanel
top...DURAS

boots...UGG
Oh Yeah I forgot to talk about how I reorganized my closet!
If you've seen my pics lately it's been looking pretty bad wwww
So I made J take me to Target to buy more plastic bins last weekend because those are my answer to every clutter problem (never to get rid of any clothes!! just to store them differently wwww).
If you wonder how I store such a high amount of clothes in a tiny apartment it's like this:
Capsule wardrobes basically.
Here you can see my 'tsuyome' clothes and my 'ganguro' clothes and basically I rotate out whatever I'm in the mood to wear and store everything else like this.
this way I can store a full lolita wardrobe like 40 dresses and a full ryousangata wardrobe also, along with gyaru brands... I can be as shopping as I like wwww
It might not look better but I promise it's a ton better

And now my socks, bras, and bikinis are also stored in the closet so the dresser that fits nothing inside can be less full lol
