Dear Younger Me #DearMe

Image
Why, hello there, Mikie from the past. I don't want to freak you out but I'm Mikie from the future. We're probably 10 or more years apart but I know you will understand. Because you've always been good at this. Listening to your elders. This is all the things I wish you knew. But for some unfortunate reason, you won't. Anyways, at some point in your life you would be able to realize this all on your own anyways.  From wherever you are now, I want you to know that it does get better. Elementary school, Meh. Sure you get bullied now here and there for how you look, how you speak, and what you are. Bullied for things you can't even change yourself. But guess what, 10 years from now, you will not be dealing with those bullies anymore. Because you'll gonna be studying in a prestigious university and they would be out of sight. Just like what you've imagined. There's no people of their kind in your future. I suggest that you shake it off. Be patient.  Girl...

ęæƒåŽš Choco Brownie Review

Image
Choco brownie (chocolate) has been my favorite snack when I arrived in Japan. I'm not a fan of brownies in general because most that I've tried were dry and crumbly. But this one though! Actually I was a little hesitant to buy this at first but it turned out to be the greatest thing ever. Not so long ago, they came up with a caramel flavor and I thought I'd give it a try.  With fudge, sometimes I like caramel better than chocolate. It really depends on my mood.  The caramel is delicious but not as delicious as the chocolate. I mean, if you haven't tried the chocolate, you might actually obsess over the caramel.   I still think the chocolate is better than the caramel. The caramel is good as it is but the chocolate is just classic. It's a cheap snack so I recommend it. 

Marching thru March

Image
Hello lovely people! It's already March. I mean, can you imagine? Already?? What did I achieve this year so far? Age. Big deal, huh?  At the very start of the month something huge happened to me (for me) and it goes something like this. I have this crush at work and I told it to my aunties there before and yeah March did this to me. Well more like one of my aunties. After break time, we were all going in again, right? My crush then entered and as I was keeping my cool, they all acted weird and calling my name and stuff and it was making me really uncomfortable like heck. And it didn't stop there. This auntie asked the name of my crush and courteous as he is, he replied of course and then she was like, that's Miki and then said "best regards". We then said best regards in unison. And some of them were even saying, she's single! And stuff. Praise hallelujah that I have my face mask on because I swear I was blushing and I don't look cute when I'm blushing...

Bits of my Life

Image
This is how I look as of the moment. Apparently, my hair can be tamed. With lotsa oil of course. Well I guess it's somehow beneficial for my hair so I shouldn't be complaining. I seriously expected my hair to be wild. Sometimes even when I forget to soak it with oil, it's still kind of okay which is very surprising. My hair is coping up!!  When shopping for food earlier this morning, I bought this. I was actually looking specifically for that Calbee chocolate covered potato chips which I used to eat everyday (then got sick of) but they're kind of hard to find these days so when I saw this, I thought I'd give it a try. The choco powder you have to add on your own. I believe I have tried something similar just to the ring itself and I didn't really enjoy it and I thought adding something to it would make me like it, but no. It's a complicated flavor so I don't really know if I like it.  Breakfast! Cheeseburger from 7/11. I bought this because someone I wat...

Family Mart Macaroon Review

Image
To be honest, I was so interested in trying these when it first came out but due to previous bad experiences, I did not but now I am glad I picked it up. It's been around for probably like months now.  Rasberry, Matcha, Chocolate, & Lemon  Before, I'm only really interested in Macaroons because they are associated with France and lord knows I am obsessed with Paris. Now, I just want to prove that it's not as horrible as I think it is. Quality wise, I wouldn't consider myself lucky for a lot of times. I haven't tasted authentic ones yet so I don't really know what's up and back in the Philippines, I tasted two brands and both were too sweet for my liking. They have this very sharp confectioner's sugar taste and I don't like that. Like, come on. And crappy fillings I must add. Moving on to Japan...   Pretty!  Pretty surprised with these though!! The shell and everything tasted very mild. Me likey! For actually the same price range, Family Mart Maca...

Fire is Definitely Catching

Image
On my terrorist post, I compared ISIS/ISIL to the Hunger Games and I meant that as a pun but then thinking about it, it's really the Hunger Games of real life. I have actually just watched Mockingjay in HD. Still not in cinema because we all know that they won't be showing it here until May 15 and I came to realize a lot of similarities. Like, see how they have all these propagandas and stuff, how they kill people in an instant, and all other things? Is Hunger Games their reference? It's really disturbing. But you know, fire is catching.  I'm literally obsessed with reading all these articles about this terror group. What they're doing, where are they now, and what have they done again. I don't know why. Do I need help? LOL.  I don't know where to start with my point to be honest. Or did I make a point already? Anyways, they burned 45, beheaded 21, kicked and dragged 3, and then radicalized 3 more. They're doing more stuff behind the scene of course. Whi...

How I Celebrated thy Birthday

Image
We took Purikura!! Loves it!! Can I just say that all along, Dems thought that my name is Miki and not Mikie. Oh friendship.  Celebration ice cream! Basically, I had two mini celebrations for this 23rd Birthday of mine. Pretty plain actually but kind of good. Strawberries were sour though. Meh.  Peace be with you  Us 4. Baby Tora is growing really fast. He's not yet very participative of course. It's either he's asleep or crying or like sleeping again. Most likely just sleeping.  The Feast It's like walking down memory lane. Bamiyan food is still so comforting, I don't know why. Yunmy Fried noodles!! I probably ordered this 8 out of 10 times we went to Bamiyan because I'm just so into it. Demi asked me how can I eat this and thdn told me she can't eat this but me, likey likey!  We went to Baskin after. I had a scoop of Choco Mint and you know me! I so love Choco Mint and recommended it to Dems and she said she likes it. I still can't understand why some ...
