SHIKIMIKIE

January: As a family tradition, we went to go to Church and see a movie. The top picture is me with my sisters chilling by the bay because we were still waiting for the mall to open. Bottom picture is at Daranak's Falls where I had a chance to experience nature. It was truly one beautiful places to visit. Will definitely revisit this place. Hopefully though that it will still be as beautiful. Cross fingers!  February: Birth Month. This is the year I turned 22. Anyways, I visited this zoo with my cousin. And bottom picture was their display for the celebration. Festive!  March: The month where I resigned from my job as a Medical Technologist where I worked for a little over six months. Proud moments!  Also, the month where I celebrated my despedida party which was quite eventful because there was a fight in the mall where we're in. Not just a fight though. It involved guns! Scary shiz.  April: The Land of the Rising Sun. Finally got reunited with my bestfriend....

First of all, HAPPY DECEMBER. Gah time really flies so fast. December 1st, I officially already stayed for 8 months here in Japan and counting. This is my last chance of making my 2014 great and I'm kinda pressured because I think I haven't had something eventful to really celebrate. Well not really. I have kind of done a lot this year but I'm just kind of not seeing it. Whatever.  Pictures are irrelevant but I remember my mom saying that it looks Christmasy so there you go. I actually couldn't see her point and just half-heartedly took these pictures but on second thought, maybe a little. Looks like it snowed or something. Good point, mom.  Oh I'm feeling really thankful!! You know why, I being the careless person that I am, forgot my phone inside the CR and a very kind Filipina co-worker found it and surrendered it to the office and whilst working, the leader asked us if one of us forgot an iPhone and I was like, damn, did I? And then alas! It was me. I was actual...

I want to share with you guys some amazing photos that I took. Well not really that. Just amazing nature in photos. I won't credit that to me. Haha It's autumn. Also known as my favorite season of all time. So I ventured and took photos that is relevant. Not this one of course.  Also not relevant to fall but I took a picture with it anyways.  It's getting colder and colder each day and to be honest, I wasn't wearing enough dress to get by this day but whatevs.  Now can we just stop and appreciate fall together? I can't express how I love fall. And I would never be able to.  Fall Dust  This is actually a Sakura Lane and in spring, which is probably my second fave season, I would be happy to show it all to you.  Selfie before leaving the lane.  View from my terrace. It's just so nice to see it changing colors day by day. I love nature!! Truly amazing. That's all!! 

My mom came to Japan and these happened. It may have been a short trip but I probably wouldn't have done the same amount of things if I were alone. Anyways. Let the story begin. We signed up for a Costco membership card which cost us more to pay for the membership than the things we bought. My mum is so good at asking people to take pictures of us so we have quite a few of that to treasure. This is before the hair cut.  I had a haircut!! Also, I colored my hair lighter which kind of disappointing because I didn't have the exact color that I want but happy at the same time because the stylist said that I now have a base color which will make my hair color more prominent the second time I color it.  We went to my mum's friend's house which was a relief for me because the last time I went here, the baby boy and I weren't exactly friends but now, it seems like we're in a good terms and he kept playing with me whilst he's insulting my momma hahaha. Went to Machid...

It was so nice to be back. I so remember my first trip and my Nepali friend asked me when will "fall" be witnessed and I was like, around November. We went there the last week of October and we witnessed its beginning. I love fall!  As always, it was so beautiful. Like, I can't stop admiring how beautiful this town is. Can't actually wait until the Sakura season starts.  The Cosmo Clock selfie.  Really gorgeous view. Oh also, they were like having a wedding celebration on the other side and they (guests) were like waving at us for some reason and my mom was like, if they would call me in, I'm definitely going.   In front of the World Porters which is quite a small shopping place with all the good stuff in. My mom was like, uh oh! Credit card is in danger again. Hahaha I just love my mom. Would definitely watch Hunger Games here.  Minato Bridge picture. My mom just thought it's a brilliant place to take a picture here and I was like, meh okay.  Here's what ...
