"If it's not Baroque, don't fix it!"

Next week is Beauty and the Beast week! I'm so very excited about it. even more excited when I know I could dress up as Beast's companions! Mrs. Potts, Lumiere, and Cogsworth! So when I knew I could get Cogsworth costume by digging in the forest town, I immediately took up my shovel and my lucky hat and went digging and digging until, voila! I found it!!!!

I immediately put it on and I felt instantly like Clogsworth. So I whine whine whine and complaint complaint complaint. /gigle Noooo... I love Clogsworth. He's not always a whiner :) In fact, since I love him that much, I turned one of my rooms into a tribute room for him! I took out all of my clocks and put them in one room. Look, I even dragged the Cinderella Clock and the Haunted Grandfather Clock from their usual place and displayed them to pay respect to Cogsworth! My very own house of clock! /gigle I believe Cogsworth would be flattered ^~^

"That hat! I'd better watch my lampshades and bell-cords!"

I’m so excited when I know I could have my very own fruit hat! Ever since I saw Carmen Miranda wearing one, I always wanted to have it. So I went to the clothes store to buy the hat and waited for 3 days for it to evolve. When it did, it turned out to be the one with the pineapple on it, which I absolutely love. So I immediately put it on and started repeating quotes from The Gang’s All Here.

But then I realized I needed something else! Since I was already dressed up in fruits anyway, I thought why not changed the entire room to the same theme! So I put up bright wallpaper and set up furniture that were shaped like fruits. There were sofas and chairs, even the rug looked like a watermelon! I also took out all my fruit plushie and played with them the entire day.

“Sun is shining. Weather is sweet. Make you wanna move your dancing feet.”

Today I met three new friends. They’re not pets but spirits! They're the spirits of summer and each of them was really very pretty, even though they were very different in character to each other. Good Cheer was very cheerful. She’s very lighthearted and she always laughed her contagious laugh. When I was near her I even couldn’t help smiling despite myself.

Mirth was quite mysterious. She’s rather like me, I think. She’s quite an independent spirit and she’s even purple too! Maybe that’s why we got along well very quickly with one another. But Mirth was also quite cheeky sometimes. She liked to play tricks on others. But her trick was never harmful. They’re mostly funny. So even if I was a bit worried that she might trick me without warning, I was quite assured that I might find it amusing and entertaining anyway.

Splendor was the sweetest. She was always very nice to me. She looked like she was very soft in her mannerism but once you get to know her, she could be quite funny. I thought Splendor looked very elegant. She always moved very charmingly. It was as if she was dancing all the time! I tried to copy some of her gestures sometimes. I thought if I could be a little bit more stylish like her, I could be a better actor.

Now the secret was, these new friends of mine could be quite shy. When they were alone, it is difficult to spot them. That was because they stay looking like bushes or shrubs. But when they were together, they changed!!!! They showed their colors and flowers bloomed all around them! I was very happy that they trusted me with that secret. Also because they accompanied me for the rest of my picnic while I sat on the swing in my peachy outfit near the seashore, enjoying the wind and the summer breeze. What a great way to start summer!
