Spring attire

Seeing it's spring, this is really what  a girl like me  really likes to be wearing.

EGL fashion

Just adorable, that's my thought on this example of Elegant Gothic Lolita as worn.

Out with the old!

I've always loved to watch movies ever since I was a little kid so when they started come out on video tape I jumped at the chance to watch them, surrounded by my teddies and dolls because it's a way of getting into that child-like frame of mind where I feel happy and  carefree, safe sipping a glass of milk. 
That's why as technology changes I just had to act starting first on my favourite cartoons such as the Pink Panther and various Disney titles since first starting to buy DVD's in 2002.
It was only those titles that went straight to first time DVD release, those cartoons plus a few classic TV and Music releases I bought leaving a legacy of titles I had to use my trusty S-VHS recorder for.
At long long last I have been replacing a good many of my VHS tapes of movies with DVD versions since updating my DVD player a short while back.

I replaced recently the following:
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
The Wiz
Flash Gordon
ET
Staying Alive
Two Of A Kind
Streets Of Fire
Top Gun
Labyrinth
Cocktail
Days Of Thunder


The improvement over the tapes is hard to describe but they are sharper with better colour rendition and contrast.

Covered legs

I first got into tights in my teens as increasingly my Mom and Aunts bought me them to wear outside of school wear we just had to wear socks cos it was school rules and all that partly cos with growing up they felt I should look more like a young woman when I was out or at social occasions .
The other part was that they felt as I get cold  very quickly, putting me in tights was a very practical thing because enveloping your whole lower body, they keep you warm and snug.
I normally wear either tan or black at work as they pretty well go with anything aren't dear to replace if they snag and don't get a lot of unwanted attention.
I do like the patterned ones with my shorter skirts and dresses though.

Mozart Quintets

Recently I bought this two cd set that had the contents of a four lp set on that originally had come out on cd in 1991 in a three cd form in a FatBoy case but because it's now possible to put a it more onto a single disc in effect they were able to pack two more Quintets into the two so reducing the price and by using the slim double case, the storage capacity.
For me these recordings from the late nineteen-sixties to the mid seventies have never been surpassed.
It also fits in well with my six cd box set of Mozart's Quartets also by the Amadeus Quartet too I bought.

Aww II

More Sweet Lolita fashion

Also today's a important day here so I've been sing visitors for most of the day.

Homebase

For a variety of reasons life lived not 'at home' but rather in the Dorm of a boarding school was the one setting I felt safe, secure and cherished as a child providing me with what I actually needed.

Some people might think being away from home is odd but to me my school was a ready made family who did try to look after me, an authority whose rules I learned to conform to and in time see the wisdom of  and a place where fair play was expected and received.

It's hardly surprising then I am "That Boarding School Girl" and this is what my blog is called because in my regression, that school and this schoolgirl is where I am at.
