Just some photos from this year's Bon Odori Festival at Manila Japanese School. It's a yearly event that we've been attending since 2015 (although we missed the 2017 one, because of bad weather). This year I went with Aian and our friends, Allysa and Henry. We spent most of the day queuing for food, eating, then queueing for more food—which is pretty much what we do every year!

Or, more accurately, what I ate at February Komiket 2019 _(:3 」∠)_ I only realized as I was editing photos from the event that I mostly took photos of what I ate during those two days, lol. Sorry!

One of the things I wanted to work on this year, blogging-wise, was to be able to write about things as soon as they happened. Or at the very least, write about them while they're still somewhat fresh in my memory. And so, I decided to skip my 2018 photodiary backlog (April-December) for now, and start working on.............my 2019 photodiary backlog hahahaha _(:3 」∠)_


I spent most of the first week of January meeting with family and friends who were in the country for the holidays. I usually don't leave the house unless I need to, so all the moving from place to place really took a toll on me. After everything my body just kind of gave in to the fatigue that had been building up from December (I attended 2 weddings, flew to Malaysia and back, attended a bunch of holiday gatherings right after). I got sick some time after that. I spent most of the time taking it easy, cuddling with the kids, just binging stuff on Netflix, and doing some journaling in between. I managed to churn out 4 blogposts though! Maybe I'm able to think more clearly when I'm sick? Haha. Here's what January looked like, through my phone (as usual).

Hey there, internet friends! :) I'm still alive, and back with a new makeup review! The last time I reviewed makeup was more than half a year ago, I think? So the whole process of doing my makeup and shooting took me quite a while to do. (Plus for some reason it's always super windy whenever I decide to shoot for reviews. TY wind for giving me anime hair, I guess 😂) But I am back with a new one, finally! This time I'm reviewing the Canmake Juicy Lady Liquid Cheek*, one of the newest products from Canmake Philippines 💕
