Well, as you may have heard…I am a huge sticker/decal fanatic.  I mean, I am just BA-NA-NA-S for all things stickers (bumper stickers, decals, deco washi tape, etc.)  This is painfully expressed in my previous posts 1 & 2.  So, what better way to show off my obsession passion for stickers by plastering them all over my laptop!  This is what I have done so far, & I am definitely planning on adding more…

  1. エステバン (Esuteban) a.k.a. Esteban.  This what I’ve named my laptop.  Yes, that’s weird, but I’m OK with it.
  2. Teriyaki Source sticker.  This is a nod to the Japanese rap band TERIYAKI BOYZ (which you may recognize from the Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift movie soundtrack)
  3. MACKDADDY decal.  MACDADDY is a popular hip-hop streetwear brand from Japan.
  4. Black Icon Urban Garment sticker.  This is one of the many logos from each clothing season of the famous Japanese streetwear brand NEIGHBORHOOD.
  5. B Side Label Fox decal.  The phrase says: 狐の嫁入いです (kitsune no yomeiri idesu), which I think roughly translates to “To be married into a fox” (?)  I’m a bit doubtful of my translation…
  6. BAPE STA sticker.  This is a nod to the Japanese streetwear brand A Bathing Ape (a.k.a. BAPE).
  7. Fragment Design decal.  Fragment is also another popular streetwear brand from Japan.
  8. NEXUSVII (Nexus 7) paper sticker.  Yet another popular streetwear brand from Japan.
  9. HUF ‘H’ decal.  Finally a label not from Japan.  This one’s an urban skater/streetwear brand from San Francisco.
  10. B Side Label Otter decal.  I can’t really make out what the characters say on this one, since the writing is so small and squished together.  I could only decipher the word “safety”, or something like that.
  11. NEIGHBORHOOD Urban Garment sticker.  This is the main logo for the Japanese streetwear brand NEIGHBORHOOD.  As you can see, I am a big fan of this brand (& so is my husband).
  12. Firmament Berlin Renaissance sticker.  Firmament Berlin is a popular clothing shop located in Germany.  They carry various urban streetwear brands, most from Japan.

 

Well, what can I say?  This title pretty much sums it all up.  I must regretfully say that I was no longer able to stay in the apartment, which I thought was perfect for my lifestyle.  I truly loved the apartment.  I just could not justify the ridiculously insane rent increase & outrageous fee hikes.  So, I decided to move to a new more affordable place.

I just finished moving out of the apartment & have finally moved into a new place.  It’s not the most ideal situation at the moment, but I am very happy/satisfied with the new living arrangements.  I said before (in previous entries) that I am trying (probably not as hard as I’d like) to regularly update this blog.  Oh boy!  I sure spoke too soon.  After all the furniture moving & the removal of old unwanted junk…I think we are finally settled in our new place.  Now, I can finally get back to the business at hand.

Hey, blog.  I’m back with a slight vengeance.
