    First Snow of 2018

    First Snow of 2018









    Better late than not at all. This happened January, 22, 2018 and ot snowed a couple of more times since then but hey! I guess it snowed more this year than last year. I’m not a fan of snow but hey, it’s pretty to take pictures with so there’s that. Unlucky me though, it poured whilst I was outside and working. Wrong timing. 







    Harajuku




    Harajuku Station




    Snow! 





    I decided to go to Shibuya afterwards because I didn’t really have any other places to go to.

    I went to Shibuhide (my fave ramen place) because it was so darn cold and I could use some ramen. For some reason, I only like the Shibuhide Ramen though. For some reason, I don’t like their other ramens all that much. 







    Sagamihara






    I decided to walk around and take pictures around 11pm because my phone camera died when I reached Sagamihara so yeah.

    Shibuya Mornings

    November 26, 2017 2
    Shibuya Mornings







    So my friend for 21 years visited Japan from Australia and she wanted to meet up so hell yeah! Our mothers are chismis mates way back Ericka and I were younger so...basically sisters.











    Anyways, the train was hella late! We were supposed to meet at 9 but then I missed the train prior so I messaged her I’ll be 10 mins. late and then the train thing happened. Always! Anyways! 











    Shibuya











    We didn’t go to many places. We just went to Omotesando, Harajuku, and back to Shibuya. Actually it was their last day in Japan when we met and as much as we want to, we couldn’t cram everything in because your girl has to go to work at night. 








    Harajuku




    We were able to catch up though! I haven't seen this girl for almost 9 years and way back high school, we weren't really inside of each other's circle anymore but you know, I know that whatever happens, we still got each other's back and that I could always run to her and stuff. VOILA! Our meet-up didn't feel awkward or anything. IT WAS AWESOME.









    Takeshita Street








    Yas! Well of course we gotta have this picture with Hachiko! I think I took this type of photo with most of my friends who visited Japan.








    Shibuya :)








    Lunch time! We were so hungry that we just went to the first place that serves rice!! The Filipino in us tho!











    My pasalubong from Australia! :) Thank you, sis!

    Shinjuku Torinoichi

    November 07, 2017 1
    Shinjuku Torinoichi







    I went with my co-worker Shella Mae! Okay so we actually didn’t have the idea that there’s a matsuri happening nearby our Shinjuku office (where we were assigned) until our store manager told me about it. According to her, it’s a festival where shop
    owners pray for the prosperity of their businesses. But we were no business owners so we were just there for food. 








    Distorted Hello Kitty face is life! Sorry, Mika. I know. 











    Osaka feels!!! I can’t even express my excitement when I saw these! Yas! Yas.








    Fancy!


    Entrance








    So many food, so little time!! 











    Tan!! (tongue) Seriously my go-to piece of meat whenever I go to festivals. Yas! 










    We regretted the castellas that we bought because it was soooo dry!!! I mean, it’s kind of cute but it was hella dry! That’s all! Ciao!

    Tokyo Disneyland 2017

    July 07, 2017 2
    Tokyo Disneyland 2017







    Tokyo Disneyland! It's been two years since I went here so it's really nice to be back. I mean, it's always nice to be back here I feel like. Yeah? 










    I went with my mom last time but this time, I went with my sisters. 











    A lot of things didn't go according to plan starting with the time we were supposed to leave our place going to Disneyland. 









    chillin' with the hommie









    I think we were 2 hours late and because of that, we weren't able to maximize our fast pass limit. We were only able to get 1 FFS! It was around 12 when we got the fast pass for Thunder Mountain and it was already for 19:55. I can't. Also, we weren't able to ride Splash Mountain because the queue is just ridiculous! The Carousel, Space Mountain, It's a New World are closed so obvi, we couldn't ride which is a bummer given Disneyland only has few rides as it is so...yeah. Anyways, it's not all bad! 











    Cinderella's Castle





    There was soooo many kids!!!! I'm not gonna be a hater though. You know how I feel about kids at theme parks. 




    I remember it's always around Easter when I went here as a child. Like, for reals! I only remember going here on Hollyween when I went with mom, the rest, Easter. I hope to be able to go winter though. Of course it would be Frozen themed because that's what it's been eversince that movie started. I'm not complaining though. I kinda like that movie. 







    Sisters








    Mark Twain




    Popsicles!








    Waiting for the parade. I so regret not bringing a hat/something to sit on. So whilst waiting for the parade to start, we were like this holding Mika's jacket above our heads. No likey. I also burned my arms. I actually don't mind being soooo tan but the fact that it's uneven is freaking ugly. I would include picture but I have no space for ugly ones, I just don't. 










    Tink! I'm such a fan of this whole Tink thing. 







    To be honest, I've only seen one Pooh movie in my lifetime and I don't freaking remember the story. I should consider going to the Pooh ride first next. 







    so cute!







    I actually thought we're meeting Cinderella and so I told my sisters and Mika got reaaally excited I can't even. 










    They have quite a lot of cute and princessy stuff though. This chair, the shoes, the everything. 







    Cinderella's Castle




    Flowers in the Castle







    So glad there was a lady that took this picture for us. 










    Fangirl moment! The ship has sailed ladies and gentlemen. I don't even know why I like Peter. I mean, in real life, I wouldn't like this guy because let's face it. He's a kid that doesn't want to grow up, has toddlers for followers, and he's stuck in a land where it's not allowed to grow up. But since it's Disney, it all works for me. PS: I wasn't able to ride Peter Pan's flight. Bummer. 







    yup this whole fairy thing works for me too! 







    Let's go back to the series of unfortunate events shall we? Mind you it was sooooo hot in the afternoon but it got really windy at night so they had to cancel the fireworks. 














    Sooo glad we watched the Once Upon a Time thing though. It was sooo precious. I'm glad we grew up watching Disney. I mean, it's just A Whole New World.








    yas











    I'm so glad we were able to catch up at night. We rode Haunted Mansion and Pirates before going home.
