It's been not so wonderful with this blog thing I'm running. I promise I will make time and catch up more with you guys soon. Anyways, here are the things that might interest you. If not, well, this is all I got to share. Wala na talaga. LOL. I bought a bike. I bought the cheapest bike of course. I was kinda fooled though. It retails for 8000 plus yen but tax not included so I spent 10000 yen plus for it all in all. Ganun din. I should have just bought the 10000 yen that's like so flashy in color. The color seems off but you know, as long as it takes me from point a to b, I'm good. Also, since I'm partially blind sometimes, it's kinda nice that I didn't but the typical silver type because we all know I wouldn't be able to find where it is at a glance.  Anyways, this is my view from work to home. Sometimes I forget to look at details because I'm tired so if I tend to stop, I usually take pictures. Does that even make sense? No? A...

I haven't been here for long but there are some things that I have already learned and observed from my work place.  First, btches are everywhere. May it be from your own country or not. But there are people who are so nice that you can't even. But those btches would really consume you and just want you to smash their face like you want to smash a ripe banana when making Banana Bread. I don't know but as time goes, it doesn't actually gets better. It worsens. Like, first this bitch was talking about me and stuff and she probably thought I couldn't hear her but that's forgiven. Forgiven forgotten. Actually that person's kinda nice. We're kinda friends now. Kinda. But this person at the bus though! Like, are you serious? They were talking about me in my NATIVE LANGUAGE  like I don't exist. They probably thought I cannot understand them or stuff because according to the people at my work place, I don't look like anything but Japanese. So that's ...

Because  I don't know if it's just bad luck but for some reason, I have been unlucky not once but twice in a span of an hour. Bingo!  Anyways, this is what happened. Work ended at like 6:05 am -ish, right? And then because I'm stupid, I didn't think of asking  what time the bus from work to Hashimoto will leave. I probably thought that I have all the time in the world so you know what I did? I asked when my offs are. I should have just chosen!! Stupid!! Anyways.  I went down the building at around 6:20 and didn't see any bus. Where on Earth is it? Even walked in every direction to check whether it was parked somewhere else or whatnot. No sign of the bus. Yabai!! What will I do? I don't know the time so I thought that it might have already left. Worst feeling ever. But deep inside, there's actually still hope that I might be a little early still.  Feelingera. A little background for you, that place is like in the middle of nowhere! No exaggeration.  So then ...

I  feel kind of lost yet again. I hate this kind of feeling you know. But then again, who wakes up in the morning and look forward to feeling lost, right? I just think that as I grow older, I feel lost the more, you know. On a perfect world, you should be able to find yourself as you age but this world I think is not that kind of world. That's why there are a lot of point in our lives when we can attach the word -crisis. Mid-life, mid-twenties, mid-thirties, mid-fourties, and so on! So I guess I'm not alone. But also, there are different types of crisis. So I don't know if feeling lost is something they are not actually going through and you know, stuff like that. Stuff that only consumes my time and mind. One of that is considering moving to Tokyo. That's actually mild. On a more wilder side of things, I'm considering moving to the United States. But not like anytime soon. Pero you know! Those kind of things I think about. I will lean towards the positive side thou...

Is it really just me that likes to see street flowers like these? They're such a delight! Like, I don't even know if you can call that normal but yeah. It is what it is. I actually snapped this very carefully for Japanese people kind of find it weird when you would just take random picture of something. I think.  This!! Hahaha I know I have shared this on my blog. Please search it if you haven't seen it already. It can't be too far! :) Favorite fruit ever!! I can eat strawberries everyday! Non-stop!! Am I alone? No, right? I don't understand why some people dislike it to be honest.  The queen is out to play! It's been too frequent recently that we're playing and stuff and this one in particular is to celebrate my remaining days of freedom. Oh well.  I was really too excited to see the skies like this one because you all know that it's not everyday that it looks like this, right? Or I was probably just out at the wrong time of the day always so yeah there...

Is older really wiser? I talked to someone really old (not dad) and I was impressed kind of for the first hour of our conversation then after a while, I was told I should get a man. When I said I don't need a man, he was like bakanokotoyuna! (don't say something stupid) And I was like, the heck? I'm a strong black woman... I am 22 you know! I have heaps of time ahead of me (or so I think) so I don't need it as of the moment. And he was like, you're not young anymore! (ouch!) he even told me I should be married by now. Okay.  I mean, am I really that old? Should I be having a quarter life crisis? I don't actually think I have officially started my life yet. Does that sound off? Yeah, but you know! Nothing like that yet so I don't think I should be in a hurry just because. Also, this is the first time I have been referred to as someone old. Well actually, my sisters occasionally tell me I'm old but that's normal because I'm a lot older than them, r...

This won't be the last that I'm doing because you know! There are just a lot of stuff to share.  This! I was so excited to see that it's a CC Cream but at the same time, I was doubtful. Really doubtful. Will it break me out? Will it this and will it that. I don't have an experience with CC Creams so I don't really know what to expect. And! I know I shouldn't be experimenting since my skin is just healing again from horrible breakout so yeah. It was runny. And white. I was like, what do I do? What is this again? LOL. It didn't even  have a color. Are CC Creams supposed to be like that? Or are there CC Creams that are just creams and there are those that are tinted? Mmm... But actually, when applied, I feel kind of different and I actually feel like it's doing something. Also, I didn't have another demon on my face so I think that's good? Of course, too soon to tell. Always.  Then I found these!! I know from th...

A selfie I took yesterday. I don't really have an explanation for this picture so I suggest we move on. LOL. We went to Hachioji to meet someone and as much as I thought of sharing the beautiful city with you, I wasn't able to take pictures because it's kinda like mini Shibuya where everything is fast paced so yeah. I will take pictures next time! Demi buying medals to play with. We weren't very lucky and I think she spent 2500 yen at least so sorry! The guy beside us though! He won the jackpot and then won so many medals that Demi was like, give us some! LOL. This girl is for real! Hahaha but she didn't let the guy hear of course.    It's really getting hot in Japan. Like it started to get hot and then it started to get cold again. Make up your mind, Japan.  I went to a 100 Yen shop and bought some interesting things and will share it so please wait for that :) Sooooon!! This is so near our place that I can't ev...

It's May!! Officially stayed for a month in Japan. Oh also, I realized that I have been unemployed for over a month now because I resigned on the 28th of March so yeah there's that. I don't know but I'm not used to doing nothing now. As much as I wish I could turn back studying years and feel the same, nah. I kind of feel sad and happy at the same time you know. The feeling of knowing something will happen and the feeling of it not happening yet all the same time is not so good and that's what I'm feeling right now. Anyways. I think this is a new start because things will happen around this month if it goes the way we want it. On other note, on a more positive side, a lot of people I have already met are saying almost the same thing to me you know. DO NOT WORRY. And thinking about it, should I really not? I'm sure they have experienced what I have already experienced so I think I should believe them, aye? But of course that doesn't mean I should...
