KATE TOKYO Cosmetics haul

Image
These are my recent beauty finds. First of all, they are affordable as it is, but what sold me these was the 20% off at the counter deal.  BB Cream!  What I liked about this brand is that they have a wider select of colors than what I am used to. I think they have 5 colors to choose from and I got OC-B which is like the second to the lightest color from the range.  To be honest, the middle color matches me better but I remember that I used to have foundations oxidize on my skin so I was like, a tad lighter won't hurt. Still matches.   I don't usually buy/use foundation but bought this just in case I actually have to use one.   Also bought concealer because I thought that if I would wear foundation, might as well do a full coverage routine. Is that bad? Haha anyways, I didn't bought the finishing powder because I believe that the powder I have would be able to do the same thing. Also, too much. That's all! 

Adieu, Nanay.

See you in Heaven  At some point in our lives, we must accept that we're gonna lose people along the way. May it be a break-up, growing apart, distance, or death. Death though is irreversible. And I feel like it's the hardest to accept amongst mentioned. I have told you in my previous blog that my lola is sick or was sick. She's very much okay now. At least she's already at peace with God. As much as I still want to spend a little more time with her, I'm glad that she's not in pain now. It's gonna be sad, yes. I know It'll never be the same again. But that's just life. Easier said than done, I know. But I also know that things will be okay eventually.  I actually didn't tell a lot of people about this. And I'm only writing this here because I don't think people would read up until this point. Except probably few. Anyways. I have told probably three friends max. Of course except my immediate family members because they knew about this befo...

My MTLEX Drama 2013

Image
It's so crazy that it's been over 2 years since I passed the MTLEX. People after us are hella lucky because you guys were given an extra week or two to cram for the exam. My batch took it at the last day of August, imagine! Anyways, I honestly don't remember much. I remember though that I had an upset stomach coming in the examination room. Like, we were actually advised to bring Loperamide, did that, took it, but still. I guess it has something to do with me being nervous and all that. I guess I was a little bit too nervous to be honest. But guess what? Whatever time you're reading this, at some point, you're gonna make it.  Picture above is a shot from my Victory Party. My cousin and my high school friends which I was always making kulit to pray for me to pass. Anyways, point of this blog post is to tell all the examiners that it's gonna be alright. You'll doubt yourself after the exams, yes, but you know, shake it all off. And believe me when I say this, ...

Trying to get Fit

Image
I took the picture below because I was trying to tell my mom that I work out and despite me describing it to her, she couldn't remember the place so voila! :))  It's been over month since I started going to this wellness center. I kind of like it. One day, a friend asked me to find a gym nearby for us to workout/lose weight and yeah at first, we actually considered going to places for different purposes but knowing myself, I really didn't think that would work because I'm too lazy to go to certain places let alone going to a lot of places when we can actually go to this place and have it all in. You know what I mean? We're just lucky we have a place like this nearby. It's like 5 minute walk (max) from where we live. And no, there's no rock climbing facility. That would have been great though.  We started August 1st so it's like a month now because they kind of had a week off during that time so yeah.  It's nonsense but you know, I think the massage c...

Takasaki's Hanahana Benchart

Image
This is totally random. After I actually dropped my phone to the repair store, I saw this and I was like, cool.  UEHARA NATSUMI Actually, I initially thought the bench was vandalized but when I saw it everywhere, that's when I know. This is close to my heart because one of my sister is named Natsumi. Bless her.  This is cute. Actually, all of them are cute.  MILKY-MARS I have no idea why they are called the way they are called.  SELFIE   DETELL Also one of my favorites. Very colorful.  UBUBUN JONJON GREEN This is probably my favorite. Two arts combined. Me likey. Ciao! 

EXPLORING Takasaki

Image
Takasaki has been one of my favorite cities to visit recently. It`s not much but going here kind of gives me a peace of mind of some sort. When we were in Yokohama, I saw this double deck-ish kind of train compartment and it was my first time seeing one so I was like, what the heck is this? And Bry explained that it is a GREEN CAR and it is where passengers can somehow ride (for a cost) to avoid the hassle of standing and/or crowded trip. I initially thought it's only for airports and stuff. As a rule, you have to tap your SUICA CARD right  away or else the attendant would have to ask you to pay in cash. What happened to us is that we didn't have a loaded card so cash it was. The fee actually depends on your destination and I remember ours was like 1000 yen plus each so yeah it`s kind of pricey but I can imagine how convenient this gimmick would be for late commuters or like PWD. The smell of poultry. I haven`t even thought of that when I first exited the station but Bry kind o...
