Early Birthday Gifts
featured here are some new hair accessories
and my new watercolor travel set
My birthday is fast approaching, and this year I jokingly made a little wish list for my family incase they wanted to buy me anything, since they usually buy me candy or clothes. What I didn't expect was that they would actually buy me my presents and have them shipped as gifts to my apartment!
Mail Call A Special Delivery!
About a week ago I got a surprise package whilst I was picking up my regular mail at the mailing center, it was a package from an admired artist and friend Soojin!
In which I actually win a giveaway
Quite awhile back ago I entered a giveaway hosted on tumblr and actually ended up winning! I won a $20 gift card to Amazon but I wasn't sure what to spend it on,until I chopped off all of my hair.
Then I thought why not buy some cute hair accessories?
Pen Pal Surprise!
Recently I asked my close friend Mei if she would like to be pen pals since I had just moved to an apartment I would be staying at for Uni for 12 months and she happily agreed about a month ago her wonderful letter came in but it was more than a letter!
In my mail was a rather plump box, decorated with lace and an origami heart, I hadn't been expecting a package at all so I was very surprised!!
The package it turned out contained way more than a simple letter it was actually a first semester in University care package!
Because Mei knows I want to be a pastry chef she sent me these wonderful pastry erasers they are so cute I'm almost afraid to use them.
Mei also knows I have a weakness for anything cute and for post-it-notes so she sent me a bunch of animal themed post it notes!
She also sent me a floral notebook which is super useful because I'd completely forgotten to buy a planner!
She sent me a heartfelt letter that made me smile so much and even drew me a little picture down at the bottom, I was really touched and moved to have received anything from her and am so glad we became pen pals.
Thank-you so much for reading.

Super Quick Catch up Post!
I'm so sorry my posting all but became non existent due to school and everything I haven't had any free time to update this blog but, today I finally got some free time so I thought i'd do a quick catch up post.
Next time I'll be posting amore in depth post about prom and some sewing adventures!
Ho Ho Ho Presents Galore!
Happy Christmas~ How did the 24th & 25th treat you? I had the most amazing two days filled with much laughter and warmth with all my family. This year I didn't ask for anything for Christmas except my own cake pans since I'd been borrowing my Grandmother's to bake but I was in the surprise of my life on the evening of the 24th!
When do you celebrate Christmas? In my family the tradition is we cook all day the 24th and then around 8 pm we have dinner, we then sing songs and dance until a few minutes before midnight. The children all go and pretend to be asleep for Santa won't come if you are awake! The clock strikes twelve at midnight and through the hushed house a loud banging can be heard at the door that's the cue for the children to race to the door and see what Santa has brought. We then end up staying up late into the AM dancing, talking and playing with our new toys.

Recent purchases ~
Hello again! Sorry for the super long hiatus I didn't really have anything to post about since nothing exciting really happened and I did have a post made up but..I forgot to publish it! It's nice to be blogging again. I've been so busy ohmygosh being on the varsity soccer team is very exhausting but I'm so glad I rejoined this year I met a lot of new people and have had such a lovely time I'm sad to see this season come to an end.
Remember how I got a $25 gift card for my birthday? Well I recently went ahead and used it..I had no idea what to buy before but with the holiday's coming around I decided it was time to buy some supplies!
