Treats from America

Trick or Treat! I may be living far from the U.S. but I got my share of treats from two blogger friends!
This beautiful New Jersey postcard came from Fortuitous Faery. After some e-mail exchanges, we learned that we both love writing mails! Now, she’s not only my blogging friend, but she’s now my pen friend.

I’ve always loved writing and receiving letters!
Gotta start collecting new stationery sets again. I’m so happy I now have something new to look forward to in the mailbox. Thank you Fortuitous and I look forward to receiving more letters from you!

The next batch of treats came from Laura of Seabird Chronicles! I joined the Autumn Goody Swap and Laura sent these cool stuffs to all the way to Japan! There’s this very cute wooden bird she got from their recent trip to Uruguay.
The gummy bears that came with it helped me ease the stress away. Finally, she put in something that’s really hard to find here in Japan: Red Bull! I really laughed hard when I found out it’s my most favorite energy drink. This just indicates that she’s reading my blog. Thank you very much Laura! Those were really great treats!

Autumn Goody Swap


This autumn… do you want to receive something from a fellow blogger? Of course, you have to send something to another blogger to keep this fun rolling. ^-^
This is open to all bloggers and I am counting myself in. If you’re interested, please go to Christine’s blog for details.Here are some autumn/Halloween questions:

What do you like best about Fall?
The trees! The color of the leaves! Plus the weather is really, really nice.

Do you have any family traditions for this time of year?
My family lives in a tropical country. But we observe these Catholic traditions: All Saints’ Day and All Soul’s Day. As for me, I’m planning to go to Kyoto to see more of those beautiful colors.

What’s your favorite Halloween chocolate?
Never experienced Halloween so I really have no idea! But, as long as it’s chocolate… I couldn’t say no to it! ^-^

Is there any Halloween treat you do not like?
It doesn’t really matter as long as it’s a treat! ^-^

100th Post!

Banzai! I’m just happy because …. this is my 100th post!

Just want to share these pictures (especially the second one)…
Whether you have a good camera or just a cell phone’s camera, taking pictures is definitely not a piece of cake. The result will still be a disaster when the photographer’s hand or the subject moves.

(1) This picture was taken using my cell phone’s camera in night mode with flash. But the photographer’s hand moved, giving us a blurry image:

(2) In here, I was the one who moved. In just one click, and without the help of a photo editor… my face turned into something scarier!

I Rock!

I was very delighted when Grace tagged me as:

All the more reason to keep blogging! To pass on the honor, here’s my list of fellow girl bloggers who also rock (in no particular order):

  • Meema – blogging her adventures and misadventures in a kikay way
  • Kagz – sharing her gimmicks with interesting pictures especially of those she hangs out with
  • Edz – amusing display of her sentiments and opinions especially on American and Korean dramas (and actors) she’s hooked into

Since Grace, Florence, Idel and Rose have been awarded already, I have not included them in my list.
