What To Buy In Tokyo.




While Bob was in Japan, 
I did some Googling and found out that there are really good brands of make up stuff and beauty products that I needed (the youtube people said).


Okay, there are actually tonnes of things that you should/can/must get from Japan. So I did some research and narrowed it down to the common items that most/all the sites were raving about and...


"If you see any of this stuff, can get for me?"

*proceeds to spam Bob with pictures of stuff I want*
Some face scrub, face foamer, lip balm, mascara...you know things like that that men generally shop for.


"Oh okay ^^ "
It was over whatsapp, but I'm sure his eyes were like that ^^.


-


He got back yesterday and I said,

"Soooo, what did you get me? hehehe *straightens halo* did you manage to find anything?"

"I found everything!"

"You found everything?!"

"Ya! Like going on treasure hunt"


He empties out his bag;



"I found this guy, I dunno what this thing is...but I found it. What is this thing, what does this do??" 
He looked very confused hahahah!


"It's a foamer! ^^" I said.
Not him. I know the eyes confused you there for a bit.


"Oh" he nods.
Yea, he probably didn't get it.




"Then I got you this, mascara. But they didn't have the type you wanted, I got this one instead"

The type I wanted? 

"The one you wanted was the long one that makes your eyelashes like that *makes a shhhhh sound and gesticulations that look like eyelashes growing*..


Oh there are types. The youtube lady didn't say, I thought there was only one type. I mean, the package I saw online was in Japanese...but I didn't tell him that la you know, I just said..

"Oh, it's okay ^^"

"..but they didn't have anymore so I got you this one that's the split out type. It makes your eyelashes go like shhhhhhhh! *more gesticulations with fingers stretched apart*"





"Then this one you wanted! The lipstick" Bob says.

"Oh! which colour is this?"

"Heheh *shrugs* I also dunno"

"Is it like red? Or like pink? or Orange?" 

"Hmm, it's like a bit red and a bit orange...but quite pink also
.....It's somewhere in between. Ya, somewhere in between those colours ^^"

Did he just name all the colours I mentioned? Maybe if I said purple he would've said in between purple too ahhaha!

"Oh okay! ^^" I said.
Not him. Just, you know, clarifying.






Things you need to get:


Cure Aqua Gel | 
face scrub in a gel form that doesn't leave your face dry. Must try. Srsly.

Pickled Sakura |

...that happen on a weekday 1. my alarm that rings on Monday morning :( 2. when it starts raining just as I want to leave for work. 3. when I'm already at the traffic light down the road and I realize I forgot my phone. *Angry u-turn, stops car, unlocks door and runs into the house, locks door, starts car again* 4. the traffic report. Because it's jam everywhere..everyday. It's "bumper to bumper" and "slow crawling" because of "heavy traffic conditions" along "most major highways" . Maybe they should report places that aren't jam. That'd be new..and exciting. 5. Taylor Swift. Because her song keeps playing on radio these days. Especially that trouble one. 6. Motorbikes because sometimes I'm bitter that I've been stuck in the same spot for 10 minutes and they're whizzing past me. :( 7. When the traffic police cause more of a jam. 8. Running for the lift I don't know why people have the habit of just staring a...

Jou's Birthday | Tea @ The Ritz Carlton

Image
" But Trisssshhh I want a fondant cake! All I ever wanted was fondant cake!" Jou was really psyched about her party. In fact, I think it made up most of our conversations the few weeks before. "What should the theme be? Where should I have it? Should I get props? Do you think people will dress up? Should we do a people-you'll-never-see-together theme?" Not that I'm complaining, I liked talking about these things haha! Of course, being the sucha-good-friend that I am, I offered to help out here and there but Jou did all the heavy lifting (metaphorically) while I just placed balloons around the table on the day and assure her that people do dress up for themed parties...especially since Fly FM was having that community message about following dress codes, to make all the guests feel guilty had they not hah! Jou looking all flapper. :)  Our tiered afternoon tea, complete with sweets and savouries. One of the sweet tiers. Everything on this was really good! A p...

What to do when your battery dies.

Image
1. Nothing.  Because your battery is dead. How will you take a picture of your food now? How will you IM the people who aren't in conversation vicinity? What will you do with your hands!!!? Okay but I guess there's always.. 2. Try to socialize with the people around you. Yea, see that's not so bad huh? Oh but hold on, they're all on their phones. That's nice. What will you do with your hands!!? 3. Do the obvious and charge it. But you don't have a charger with you. Well, you have one in your car, but you're in meetings the whole day so I guess that's not gonna work now is it? I hateee it when my phone runs out of battery. It's the worst thing in the world, especially in this day and age! Even my mum whatsapps me when she wants to ask me something. So having your battery die and not being connected just makes the world a gloomier place. Okay I'm being dramatic....or am I really? Lemme tell you a few instances where my phone died and it made my wor...
