Update on EMODA!

I’m actually in Japan now for the upcoming TouchMe EMODA 2014 Spring Summer fashion show! I missed their 2013 Autumn Winter show earlier as i was away for Weddingmoon. Really super happy to be able to make it this time!

Ena won’t be around though as she’s on maternity leave now. She told me that she’s due on the very TouchMe fashion show day!!

AUGUST

Met her during my short trip to Tokyo in August.

Went for their Autumn/Winter exhibition too, can’t wait to receive the items i ordered!! read more

(first one here)

Anyway since i’m so expert in cheating, here are some more Cheat One™ kyaraben that may or may not be edible.

1. Oh My Cod

A rare fish dish considering we eat Japanese all the time. The fish looks worried because i obviously didn’t know how to handle fish.

2. -_-

Rilakkuma is not very rilakked. He looks kind of pissed off. Probably because he can’t eat anymore since he is stuffed. (Sorry. I try better.)

3. I Love Mt Fuji 

With a digital flag. Stolen from the internet. Apparently i don’t love Japan enough to want to pay for stock photos. read more

This post is written for adventurous, exciting and happening people. Because you all need to learn how to be more boring like me.

My life is blissfully uneventful now and revolves around what to or not to throw from the fridge and recycling plastic bags. An excited conversation to me will be something like this:

me: Oh My God did you know that Aeon now sells Topvalu mineral water???? And cheaper too!!!
danna: Oh.
me: I CAN NAO DRINK JAPANESE WATER! 😀
danna: technically it is made in Malaysia.
me: I CAN NAO DRINK JAPANESE BRAND MALAYSIAN WATER!!! 😀 read more

So after the 9th year anniversary blog post, i realized that everyone of you came to this blog by different chances and stay here for different reasons.

I got curious and decided i would delve more deeply into that, so i spied my own Google Analytics to find out which keywords brought you to this blog.

Apparently, my first discovery was that you guys don’t know me at all.

30,000 of you cannot even spell this blog right. Unless you were really looking for a Cheeseland and it brought you here. Then that was just unfortunate. read more

The other day i wrote a tweet about how i wish someone should just invent make up products that you can sleep in already, because removing make up is the worst part of make up lol.

And for someone who puts on make up almost on a daily basis, imagine the chore every single night T___T. I remove my make up using make up remover wipes, oil cleanser (x2 times), special eye make-up remover, and then a final cleanse with foam cleanser, but when i apply toner on my face afterwards, i could still see some residue of make up on the toner cotton pad. I was wondering, exactly how many times should i clean my face until it is really really clean T___T. read more

Weddingmoon journey continues.

To pick up where i left off, we unsuccessfully built a zombie empire in Venice, so we left Italy and headed to Germany on a train.

From Venice.

I have blogged about night trains earlier.

Train dinner party lol. Lots of ham, squeezed-flat tramezzini, wine and Pringles.

We relaxed slowly in a moving train and did research on the next city we were gonna visit. And maybe booked our hotel. (Yes it was that last minute.)

And then the train will wake you up some time between 5 or 6am, an hour before reaching your destination. read more

Hello!

Thank you for all your comments! I have replied all! 😀

Actually my favorite posts in this blog are all the anniversary blog posts, because all your comments reminded me of why i started this and how much i enjoyed blogging in the first place. Sometimes when i feel too shitty to write i tend to forget why people read this blog. But thank you, for reminding me and adding oil to fuel this blog! Now i also add oil myself la! 😀

Allow me to quote Japanese humans again wtf.

They did this, immediately after Tokyo was announced the successful bid to host Olympics 2020. To thank everyone in the world who gave support. read more

Hello!

Today this blog turns 9 years. And it is extra auspicious because there are a lot of 9s. It will probably live a long life.

On every blog anniversary day when i remembered (somet years forget, but this year i put a reminder down in calendar), i did a blog post and feel thankful for how long i have managed to keep this blog. I often ponder about the shelf life of a blog. It largely depends on how much effort and passion you want to put in to maintain it, just like every other aspects of life. And sometimes i wonder if next year, i would be celebrating the demise graduation of this blog instead. After all 9 years is a quite a long time. read more

Haven’t been posting coordinate pictures in a long time, here it is!

Most of the outfits here are sponsored and i didn’t even pick most of them (was sent to me by fashion shop owner’s choice) so sometimes it is actually very very challenging to put on something i’m totally not familiar with trying to make it look good. And most blogshop clothes comes only in ONE size, so i’ll have to belt them, layer them, fold them… etc.

But it’s quite fun la since i get to try out many styles and in the end decide on what suits me the best. read more

Thanks for all your questions!

First of all i’m filtering all the very general questions like “can you recommend what to eat in Japan????” or “Where is the best place to visit in Tokyo?????”. If you ask me so generally, i can only give you very general answers like, “Why limit yourself? EAT EVERYTHING!!! Just maybe avoid expired Pockys”.

Also! I have over 100 blog posts about Japan under the category JAPAN, and i’m sure you can find something generally useful! read more
