After years of wondering how this tastes... I FINALLY got to try it at fellowship! :P

I made breakfast (technically brunch... but let's just settle for breakst)! (like my nails? :D)

a very fishy evening :)

I love autumn food, autumn fish!! (not all dishes are shown here... will need to hunt people down for them)

Seasonal Yakult Sour drink

ほろよい by Suntory

Everything in Japan has a season, and this drink is no different, I managed to get one before they all disappeared in Tokyo.

It is Yakult (Yakult is a Japanese yogurt drink) mixed with a Japanese liquor called Shochu.

The result is delicious :) I hope you can try it next year :)

need some help?

if this doesn't scream sugar-daddy I don't know what does... XD

oh deer

its been a while but I am finally returning :)... Bubble tea is everywhere in Tokyo but it is hard to find bubble tea shops that have a nice ambience. Pictures are worth a thousand words, enjoy :)

Autumn/Fall food in Japan

this consists of: pig intestines, pig stomach, konyaku (from konnyaku potato), a very thick pork-based broth and some seasonal veggies :)

my kind of breakfast

all my breakfast favourites in one bowl: toasted baguette, easy over eggs and bacon :P

the best part about living in Japan

welcome UNI SEASON!!! I've waited so long for you to come!

IKURA is always a favourite :P

let the feast begin :D

McDonald's in the morning

I did something crazy and went to McDonald's at 5:00am today!

we all need to settle down once in a while and meditate :)

White Rabbit Milk Toffee

I found some White Rabbit candy lying around my friend's house and noticed there is also a new flavour!

Who knew Red bean milk would go so well with the signature White Rabbit Milk toffee taste? :)

YSL products

While I was away, I bit the bullet and bought two YSL beauty products (sorry wallet)

They are:
YSL's Full Metal Shadow in #6 - Pink Cascade
YSL's Touche Eclat Radiant Touch #2

I've wanted a creamy eye shadow for some time and this one ticked all the boxes
I was told that the Touche Eclat radiant touch isn't suppose to be used as a concealer but it should be a highlighter... the sales was really good and after doing some research, I decided to get it :)

update!

sorry for being MIA these past few weeks. I was having some issues with my computer (and Blogger has yet to provide a functional iOS app) so I haven't been able to update. >___< #1stworldproblems
