CNY Eve & Day 1

... but mostly stuff on day 1 LOL.

(●⌒∇⌒●)/Konnichiwa people~ I'm back!! And btw,


HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!


It's been almost 2 weeks since I have updated my blog gomen ne... I've been juggling between studying and helping mom with the endless list of last minute Chinese New Year cleaning and CNY itself. I even spent the entire day on CNY eve driving to KLIA to fetch my bro who got home from Germany and then back to Kampar-Ipoh-homesweethomeohmyprettybed so I've been really tired to blog.

Anyway, I made sure I got loads of pretty photos from the entire first week of CNY to share with you!ヽ(^O^)ノ Bro brought back the DSLR so I was playing with it all the time.

Photos nao!


CNY decor outside the house~

Mom bought many mini pineapple lanterns to hang on the plants this year! Ong lai ah! Ong lai is directly translated to 'pineapple' but it can also means 'good luck/prosperity is coming'. Along those line lah.


CNY prayer stuff.


Roasted duck and pork. Me likey~ (♡Q♡/)


Loads of different cookies this year!

So much that I've got to stuff them side by side in the same compartment.


Cornflake cookies that didn't fit into the container.

Huge pineapple joss stick as prayer offering. It burnt for about 3 days 2 night! I don't like it 'cuz the smoke gets into the house and makes my eyes water and hurt so bad (TA≤)

Nais or not? Dad was helping me fan so I can take this pic↓ DSLR is so awesome!

Such a grand event! And I didn't need to go far from the front yard of my house to watch.

Some crazy amount of fireworks were illuminating the sky after midnight. It's like the neighbors were having some sort of fireworks competition that night.

I can still hear some fireworks go bangs as I blogged though I'd say day 1 (from midnight till about 1am)has the grandest display_with deafening bangs and booms.

drugstore hauls~

Konnichiwa~!

Apologize for the week long hiatus. I've been busy doing 1001 stuff at the same time and helping my parents with house cleaning for the Chinese New Year~ So much that I've practically slump dead at the end of the day...(,XAX),

This evening I had some time off so after cleaning I went drugstore shopping~ As a reward for myself:P Actually it's more like a reward for 1 year of beauty blogging.

Yessie, it's officially 1 years as of this month!! (^O^)/ Thank YOU so much to those who has been following and reading my reviews and other blog posts. For that, you are freaking awesome! Thank you!!

Back to my drugstore haul LOL. Got myself the HadaLabo AHA+BHA Hyaluronic Acid Lotion and Liese Bubble Hair Color in Dark Chocolate~ ♥ Checking these two items out from my wishlist. I'll be making reviews for each of them sometime this month and keep all of you posted on my twitter v(≥vO)

Besides those two, I got myself a lil' something else_Hello Kitty gacha(or capsule)Hello Kitty merchandises are making it on shelves in Guardian pharmacy after Sanrio Hello Kitty Town kick off last year in Johor.

Wanted the gacha especially since they were released cause they're just so cute. I can't remember the last time I collected gachapon. I'm not sure if I want to get all the designs but there're like 36 different designs altogether wth.
