Meguro River Illumination 2016

Image
Selfie Conveniently just 15 minutes away from work, I decided to go after my shift and was left in surprise with what I saw. Well nothing there yet when I arrived because it's quite early but you get the point. When the clock chimed at 5pm, everything suddenly turned pink. It was magical.  Meguro Gawa Minna no Illumination  Pink Lights  Supposed to look like Sakura trees and it did not fail. Loved its water reflection even.  I'm sure professional photographers would just laugh at the shot above but I was quite impressed with this little failure to focus shot as I would like to call it. I felt like a princess walking around her own garden for a sec.  I actually wonder if they're Sakura trees. I bet it's just as beautiful during Spring. I should be back!  Fairy tale-ish trail. I was impressed with this place because you know, very quiet because for some reason, one little thing I hate about Tokyo is that it's kind of touristy and I find it really hard to bre...

Omotesando Illumination 2016

Image
I don't really have much business to do in Omotesando except for MAC but since it's close to Harajuku, I went anyways.  Burberry Scarf ;)  The Beverly Hills of Japan (or so they say) Simple as it may seem, it was actually very pretty!  Omotesando Everything was magical Burberry Vintage It's a very pretty place to visit. Too bad it ended already as of this writing but I'm really glad I was able to go! That's all! Ciao!

Yoyogi Park Illumination 2016

Sea of Blue Last 2 years, I promised I'd go to illuminations. I actually thought I wouldn't be able to but with a little more determination, I managed to somehow sneak in! Last year was kind of fail (in general that is) but anyways, this year and early next year will be nothing but memorable. I mean, just look at that beauty. Can I just say that as much as I'm almost running out of time with these events, because I forgot to bring my camera the first time, I had to go back the next week to take proper pictures. Waste of time but you know, this kind of place is not something you'll get tired of apparently. And it's near work. Also, iPhone 7 Plus' camera is not as near as good as a DSLR. Whoever tell you otherwise is clearly lying. Pft!  Crowded!!! It's a fairytale venue with lots of prince and princesses so it's hard to feel like the only jewel in this one. Yoyogi Park in Shibuya  This was actually the easiest place to go to since it's like a 10 minut...

Tama Center Illumination 2016

Image
Christmas in our hearts! Yokoso!  Sea full of stars? I was wondering what this is at first given my poor eyesight but then with the noise and all, I realized it's supposed to look like the ocean with all the creatures and stuff. Also, I've been going to Sanrio Puroland every effing up until I was 13-14 but I didn't realize that it was in Tama Center.  Kitty Chan  It was beautiful! It was wide! Not like in Tokyo where it's so compact in a sense that in Tokyo, you almost only have a place to walk. But then again we went earlier this month so illuminations are not really that relevant yet.  First illumination of the year. Well it's up until February so I still have a lot of time to go here and there. Not bad for starters. Ciao!

Proper Fall Post of 2016

Image
Fall 2016 This is gonna be more of a picture post because you know, don't really have anything to say except I like fall!!! gorgeous color  One thing I consistently hate about fall is the rain though. Not cute!  Fall reminds me how beautiful it is to let go. Let go of the memories of the year and to start again. Or you know, if it's worth remembering, there's always The Pensieve to store them.  I didn't go to many places to see the trees, autumn leaves and all that. Although I really wish I did. I know how annoying it can be that I really say that all the time and I know this is lame excuse but I will try harder next year.  hang on there sunshine So there's that. We're almost ready for winter aren't we? I guess Illumination posts are coming up! Well, hopefully. LOL. Ciao!

Taking Over Harajuku 11.7.16

Image
lips darker than my soul  Harajuku. For some reason, it's growing on me. I remember just being neutral about it. I kind of like it now. Also, I don't really have much choice but to like it. This was when I had the job interview for my now part-time job in Harajuku. All went well obvi.  Harajuku Life Harajuku Street The cute clock  I made sure to go around since I don't have work that night. And I know that I would just come and go for work there so yeah I grabbed the chance to roam around. It's weird! I feel like myself again going to places.  crepe  Yup! Harajuku is all about fashion and crepes. I was hesitant to buy crepe because I was planning to have a proper lunch but since it's Harajuku, I just can't pass on the hype.  Blueberry Cream Cheese Seriously, why do I look like the world turned its back on me? Well maybe because it did. Kidding!!  Fall's perfect color going in Meiji Shrine sake barrels  selfie! wine barrels During that time, they h...
