Oh, and
did I mention his eyes arrived over the weekend? They are beeeeautiful. They look deep and black but when you turn them to shine in the light they shift to green and gold. It's awesome.
A tiny nudist colony we are not...
I put in the order for some itty bitty clothing today. Since the jeans tutorial I found requires a lot of fitting I got him a pair of those, and a pair of sneakers (since I can't sew those, sadly), and...maybe an itty bitty iPhone. Hey, it was cheaper than the laptop/headphone combo I was initially considering (and also idk if the headphones would fit his elf ears...).
A kind user on DoA offered to get me the measurements for the shirt tutorial though, huzzah! So I will be making some of those, out of the material I bought, and also a couple of old shirts. I want to use the shirt that my Grandma bought me that I wore to Disney World and my old Pokemon shirt. I love both but I can't wear either now due to the holes, so hopefully I can make some use of them!
Day 23...and counting weekends, 23 more to go. So I guess this is the real halfway point. Waiting is hard!

AAAAUUUUUUUUGH
So Lizzy pointed out to me that I should be counting in business days. Which makes today like day 21. So I'm a little over halfway there. Guhhh.
Decided to attempt saving up for Alberta...wish me luck.

Can you tell I'm having a hard time waiting?
Bunch of googling, DoA searching, youtube... Found out that Xue's profile view shows she has an astoundingly big honker, and while I enjoy pronounced noses, it's not as beaky as I thought it was (or hooked - rounded?). I imagined it as more of a smooth downward slope, but it's narrow and pointy. Huhm. I'm glad I took the advice to go look for owner pics (though finding ones of Xue are pretty hard - and people seem to like to mod her nose too, ahahah). I found a video of her and some pics, and she's very thin, too. I knew she was skinny but not that skinny! Not that I'm getting another doll anytime soon anyway, but it makes me feel even better about the decision I made. She's still very pretty but she's not as enamoring as I originally thought.
Found a video of Dan too. She's nice. I think I'd like a unicorn-type doll, with hooves and ears and a horn... There's another doll RS sells that might be nice for that but her hooves aren't as nice as the girl that is the same size as Dan, and she's like 42 cm or so.
A doll that I've really been obsessing over hardcore since I first saw her is Alberta.
Doll Chateau's stuff is so pretty and creepy. I adooore her. I really like their conjoined twin doll as well, but she's...well, around four times as more as Mister Incoming Long. Not sure if I'm willing to even think about that kind of cash right now.
Alberta is about twice as much, and is a nice daydream for the time being.
Thirteen days!

Over halfway there!
If Sun's estimate is to be believed, there are only about two weeks left until he's shipped out! Or less, she did say within 40 days. His eyes still haven't arrived though, but that's not unexpected, since I read more into it and they're custom made for every order (I think that's pretty cool - as dorky as it sounds, he'll have eyes especially made for him, hahah).
I did go and buy some fabric to try and sew him some clothes. It's a bit stretchy so hopefully I can do well with it.
I found a thread on DoA that's just for 70cm RS dolls, and most of them are Longs/Fengs. Seeing pictures of him just makes me more excited! And the white skin is beautiful - I was a bit worried about not getting the 'real'/natural color, but it looks gorgeous in every pic I've seen.
Waiting is so haaaaard...but I've been busy lately with my new workload so the time goes by surprisingly fast.

The Waiting Game
So since I managed to order from ResinSoul without registering (somehow...), I contacted them to confirm my payment and address and such. Their wonderful English representative Sun got back to me fairly quickly and said the Long doll should be shipping out within FORTY DAYS. Whoohoo! That's pretty fast. It's been about two weeks now, so I still have...about three to go, hahah.
His wig arrived the other day, but I didn't even remove it from the default packaging as I don't want to damage or muss it (not before he's gotten to wear it, anyway!), and I live with two darling manchildren and two demonic cats.
I found a lot of free and easy patterns for clothing on DoA, so more optimism here! Maybe I really can just give him home-made clothes for awhile... I'm not cheap, I swear! Just broke, lol.
