gah, the most annoying thing is that "those people" in harajuku aren't at all impressive in person, and what's more is that there's hardly any of them.
interesting looking people are VERY few and few between here.
seriously, magazine photographers must have to stand around on the streets for weeks to find enough people with interesting outfits to fill a magazine.

when you actually get here, what seemed good about japan will be forgotten in a matter of weeks. there's nice clothes and food, yeah, woo~h!11! not.
when you have to live here, it soon becomes the same as any other place.
and the attention you get for being foreign is not fun, and an become annoying very easily. especially when it is actually racism.

I just laugh at japanophiles for now, really, they are wasting their time, money and effort on something which is in fact a lie.
I used to look at lolitas in magazines and think 'wow, they look so elegant and pretty', but in fact here most of them are fat and ugly, and actually just disgust me.
the only people here that manage to impress me are proper himegyaru, becuse to look like the girls at jesus diamante takes a heck of a lot of work and I totally respect them for that.

most of the 'unique' factor of japanese fashion that makes it seem interesting, when you get here, you realise it is actually that most people just have no particular style, and wear anything, or copy someone else.
You know, I'm beginning to really like you biggrin

Ugh~! It makes me sick that people here are so fake~!!! scream I'm probably the ONLY non-Japanese girl who can even say Harajuku and know exactly what that is. Don't get me wrong but the whole Japanese fashion thing will only last for a year or two then fizzle out into another long decade of horrible fashion. -(i.e. the 1930's here in the US... BORING)-

Anyway those who dress in their rip-off version of Harajuku, Lolita, and Gothic Lolita fashion really need to stop. Not only is it annoying but insulting to those who live there and have the right to claim the fahsion title.

I'm one of those people who'd kill just be on Japanese soil period but I have reasons that don't involve fashion or pop-culture. I'm one of those people you'd call a nerd and stare at me while my fashion is 100% average American but claim to be a Japan-o-freak. stare You know the, almost creepy, totally obsessed fan girl of a country instead of a band... yeah that's me only I don't plaster Japan and Caligraphy all over everything or claim a certain fashion. However my wardrobe had a kind of twisted Lolita/Harajuku look before I'd even heard or knew what those terms were. I'm starting to think I was born into the wrong nationality. rolleyes
