Life lately, birthday edition! I turned 26 just last week, on the 16th. I spent the day itself with Aian, the next couple of days with family, and the rest of the week with my babycats. My birthday week was celebrated with food - lots of it. Ramen, burgers, donuts, samgyeopsal, parfait.. By just the third day I already felt like I gained 5kg, haha. I've probably eaten enough food this past week to last me til the end of 2015 _(:3 」∠)_
| Making: a checklist for building an Asian skincare routine, so far I have 4 out of 12 (!!) products Drinking: water. How does one keep track of how many glasses they drink in a day, exactly? Reading: the latest chapter of One Piece Wanting: so much to eat at Yushoken again Looking: at possible planner choices for 2016 Playing: LoveLive! - Eli event on the JP server! Deciding: to focus on skincare. There's a ton of makeup I want to try, but they'll take a back seat for now. Enjoying: SSIN-nim's Youtube videos! Waiting: for f(x)'s album to drop! We have a date!! Liking: the self-timer function on the iPhone's front cam. I always have a hard time taking selcas since I can't press the capture button on the screen, so the self-timer helps a lot! I actually can't believe I tried using it just recently.. Wondering: what to do for Halloween this year Loving: the MV for IU's Twenty-three Hoping: I can complete my skincare checklist by next year. Most of the items I want are expensive, so.. ; v ; Considering: growing my fringe out again | Watching: LoveLive! 2015 Dream Sensation ♥ Needing: to work on this one makeup tutorial that's been sleeping in my blog's drafts for a while now Wearing: a Uniqlo x Moomin UT Following: the #fx4walls tag on Twitter!! So hyped!! Noticing: how big our babycats have grown ♡ Knowing: things can only get better Thinking: of styling ideas for a shoot I'm planning Admiring: the work of Min Heejin, Sorting: photos I've saved on the PC for inspiration Buying: COSRX's BHA Blackhead Power Liquid & AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid from The Skincare Curator Getting: quite addicted to learning about the science behind skincare - the importance of pH, use of acids, etc. Bookmarking: a ton of threads on /r/AsianBeauty Disliking: how slow I am at finishing blogposts ;___; Opening: my email every two minutes Feeling: very sluggish these past few days Coveting: all of TadeAya's outfits (also, HER HAIR) Wishing: I could be more assertive. I think assertiveness is an essential life skill.. which I don't have enough of |
I had Korean BBQ twice this month. The first time was with family, the second with friends. And I finally know what kimchi tastes like!
I've been using these two Lush items a lot recently: Mask of Magnaminty and Jumping Juniper Shampoo Bar. I like them a lot! The truth is, I've had Magnaminty for quite some time.. way past its.. best before date, yikes. I've read on some Lush forums that it's still okay unless it starts smelling bad and stuff.. so I'm still using it. But I think I might have to throw it out soon, since it's getting too dry to spread on my face (and I'm scared I might get allergies or something). I'll do a proper review of both items soon!
I haven't been able to post a lot of kitty updates recently, but I'm happy to say that all three of them are doing well ♥
Last Saturday I attended Cosmania at SMX, my third (?) ACG event for this year. I haven't been attending a lot of local events recently, but I just had to attend this one because I really missed my Kawaii PH family! Also, because my favorite revolutionary girls, Seishun Kakumei, were performing! You can watch their perfs here and here!
With my LARME girls - Ashley, Mica, Kaye, ChiChi, and Nona ♥
..aaand with the two girls I was most surprised to see at the event: Anne, because she's usually busy, and Kaila, because Kaila!!!! None of us had any idea that she was in Manila. I actually thought it was someone who looked exactly like her, haha! So glad to see her, even if it was just for a while!
Went home with free potato chips from Calbee + my Maki Nendo from Hubbyte Toy Store!! Isn't she the cutest thing? So happy (♡´艸`♡)
Hello October, hello birth month! I wanted to continue from last month's blogging streak and keep going strong with the posts, but I was way too excited at the thought of seeing all my friends at Cosmania again, so everything just flew out of the window. (I have a very low EQ, I'm sorry!) But anyway, since October is my birth month, I'll try my best to keep posting! For now, here's my monthly check-in of what I've been up to and into recently. Happy weekend, everyone ✿
| Making: a list of blog-related stuff for October Drinking: coffee (Great Taste White!) Reading: Asian skincare reviews. I recently learned that cleansers with a pH of 5.5 or lower are best for the skin, which means all of my foam ones are out, and that I have to replace them with Hada Labo's, which has a pH of 5.5 Wanting: to dye my hair. Maybe black/purple.. Looking: forward to Comic Fiesta 2015! ٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)૭✧ Playing: ESNO's "Release" while I type this entry Deciding: whether I should buy a 40mm pancake lens or just go straight to something wider as a walkaround lens Enjoying: Red Velvet's "The Red" Waiting: for both f(x)'s and WINNER's comeback!!! Liking: The Private Life Of A Girl's posts on blogging Wondering: how I'll celebrate my birthday this year Loving: my new Maki nendo! ♥ Pondering: how to manage my blog calendar for 2015 Considering: getting a curling iron for my birthday. I'm getting tired of my fringe looking limp all the time Watching: right now - Haikyuu!! S2, One-Punch Man, Noragami Aragoto, and Running Man (still) | Hoping: everything goes smoothly til the year ends Needing: to buy some new makeup brushes Wearing: comfy clothes because I'm getting ready to run errands and it 31 degrees outside Following: Kim Dayeong om Youtube Noticing: that I've been slacking off on posts again Knowing: I need to take outfit photos for the blog Thinking: of buying N5/N4 textbooks in Kinokuniya Admiring: this photographer's work. So dreamy! Buying: nothing. On a shopping ban until December! Getting: SUPER! EXCITED! FOR COMIC FIESTA! I just got news that Aian's application for a booth got approved, so all I have to do is apply for a blogger pass this year as well! Bookmarking: KL's public transport routes Disliking: that the LoveLive! Movie has limited screening times locally. It's only available in six SM Cinemas. SIX. Opening: a bunch of tabs, still on Asian skincare Feeling: really lazy. I feel like curling up beside my babycats right now _(:3 」∠)_ Coveting: this beautiful book Wishing: I had more time (and money) on my hands |
