[43] ♥ Updates. RHOV. Discontinued products { Trends in Jelly APRIL '13 Mag Scans} + more

Mmm... i've been trying out Vancouver's cheesecake challenge hehe. Will get back to you guys later on how everything tastes ;) Not bad so far. Can't wait to try out more~

It's been a couple of weeks and i'm still sick =A= I'm sick of being sick haha =w="" And it's allergy season so i'm sneezing every few minutes...*sigh.


I'm so excited for Game of Thrones! Season 3 is starting on March 31st... If you don't know what this is it's a really good TV series set back to the medieval times. The story is just wow.. based off of popular books. This fantasy story is very well made and can be comparable to the quality of perhaps Lord of the Rings but obviously with different scenarios and edgier scenes. I highly highly recommend it! You will definitely get hooked just by watching the first episode.

For one of my business marketing classes i need to do a survey on coffee. If you have a minute to spare, please please take my quick 10 question survey?? It would help me in my project a lot. Please take survey if you drink coffee!

Did you know? One of my absolute favorite perfumes, Chloé eau de parfum, is getting discontinued! I was so surprised when i learned this on my San Fran trip :( If haven't sampled this scent before you should definitely give it a try! I'm a huge perfume addict but i must say this has always been my "go-to" scent... have to stock up on a few bottles before they're all out /cry

What news can be worse as discontinuing the Chloé perfume? DISCONTINUING the Yves Saint Laurent ROUGE VOLUPTÉ lipsticks. Yes. It's true. I heard it from the ladies at YSL themselves. They're slowly moving towards a new line and getting rid of this one. I'm so sad because this line of lipstick are my absolute favorite. The texture is just so creamy, colours so vibrant and pigmented, and doesn't dry out the lips as easily as other lipsticks. So sad. I've been trying YSL's other lipstick lines however they just can't compare. The staff at YSL also told me that i could look towards Armani because they are of the same company (didn't know that!) however their lipsticks were still not as good in my opinion. I'm trying to grab as many colours before they're all gone. The Sephoras around my area haven't stocked them for the past few months... it was definitely a sign. /sad


The Real Housewives of Vancouver
{Season 2}



Wow.. i thought season 1 was pretty epic enough.. season 2 is just as crazy. If you don't know what the "Real Housewives" series is go check it out haha. There are other ones such as the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the Real Housewives of New Jersey etc. The people, the parties, the drama... it's cray. My favourite was Ronnie in season 1 but for some reason in season 2 i think i like Ioulia. The way is talks is just.. i love her accent haha! And the attitude is so fitting. She's quirky in her own way and i just love it. There's just so many connections watching this show. Not only is is filmed in Vanouver but my boss' son... dated Mia during season one so it's quite interesting to watch. I also saw Mary shoe shopping at Holt Renfrew one time. The coincidences haha ^^ 

Watch all the episodes of The Real Housewives of Vancouver online here!

This candle smells amazing. I swear. Holy. Anthropologie, i always find it funny how every time i go to your store i end up buying everything BUT clothes haha. The accessories, books, candles, perfumes, household decor etc. are just so nice. If you have a chance, check out the smell of the white candle i bought (image below). I can't describe it properly.... reminds me of Chanel's Gardenia??

Tommy Heavenly6 / February6 CD
Dollywink Eyelash Glue
Rilakkuma Pull Keychain <- super cute!
Pink Glasses

Honestly i don't know how time flies so quickly. It's already been 2 years since i started blogging, though it took me so long to make it to this 42nd post haha. I'm so grateful for all the opportunities that i have received from starting this " I'm so Jelly " blog that i just can't thank you guys enough. If it weren't for you readers encouraging me to keep on writing... to keep on blogging ... i don't know where i would really be right now. More lost than i am now with words perhaps. Blogging has opened so many doors for me and i've learned so much from reading others' blogs. Social media has and is already so very powerful that it still amazes me. I thank all of you readers who have stuck with me thick and thin. 

As a small token of my gratitude i would like to host a small giveaway. I would say it's a more "gyaru giveaway" theme haha.I will be mailing all of the above prizes to one lucky reader. Side note ** I just LOVE Momoeri... i hope whoever recieves this gift will be happy ^^ 

However.

I realized how overly girly this prize pack is (hahaha!! i can't help it x3) so I will be adding one less girly prize pack that is more unisex but still gyaru / ギャル & gyaruo / ギャル男 related. So there will be a total of 2 different gift sets. Stay tuned ;)

[40] San Fran Part 2 ♥ ♥ {Rilakkuma Kigurumi ft. Kelvin hahaha}



My dear readers,
I apologize for posting late (again) for i am unfortunately ill =A= After 4 back-to-back midterms in 2 days... there just hasn't been a break time for me. And of course, as a result i am sick again lol "orz 

I haven't had the time or energy to compile the clips from my San Francisco trip but here are the rest of the photos in the mean time. Bare with me!

The room photos are from the creepy Hotel Majestic in San Fran haha xD It doesn't look that bad right? It's very strange though... because my boyfriend and i got really creepy vibes when we entered the hotel room. The air... just as you step into the room is significantly heavier than the air right outside the door. I'm not joking. I stepped in and out to make sure and it sure as well scared me. Not to mention there was a surplus amount of mirrors in the room. @__@ There were at least 7 mirrors in the room. One of them was really big and faced directly to the bed. For example, if you sat bed.... you could see your complete reflection if you look to your right side. Creepy. There was also another mirror near the desk that would mirror the top half of your body if you sat there. I'm literally getting goosebumps as i'm recalling this. There was also a giant Victorian-style closet. When i opened it there was a full sized mirror ...INSIDE. SERIOUSLY. I almost jumped @__@ Kelvin said he heard creepy noises at night too. Ughh >A<; Haunted!!!! Hahaha ok let's not ever talk about this again. 
You see the closet? @A@
Only one of the bed lights worked. The other one.. kept flickering so creepy haha @A@
On our last day in San Francisco we noticed the sign above near the entrance of the hotel. We were quite shocked to see it... i'm assuming it's the chemicals they use for cleaning? This is really creepy though. If i had known this i might have not stayed there...

We actually came across this sign 3 times later on that day around downtown. Even at a Starbucks! Is this normal? Anyone from California know about this sign? @__@;

Harajuku Hearts! The staff was so nice to us :3 Friendly service!
The photo above is my favorite shot of San Francisco that i got hehe! Beautiful city! 

// Mini Haul

Putumayo cardian, Putumayo bow, Black Peace Now choker 
Ma*rs shorts & garter, Ma*rs glasses (Not bought from San Fran but from my past package from friend hehe)

*BONUS* 

HEEHEEHEE... Kelvin probably doesn't know i'm uploading these online so ....shhHHH ;)
I bought Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma kigurumi for both of us hehehe so we started to play around. I was sick so he was trying to make funny poses to cheer me up. So sweet~ (of course i took the opportunity to snap them hehehe... what kind of girlfriend am i? HEEHEEHEE /evil laugh :)

I'm excited to make some vlogs? Video logs? Is that what it is called haha? Maybe..

Just curious! What would you like to see in my video logs? (Please don't suggest tutorials haha... "orz) I don't think i will be asking this again in the future haha so only this post.




.....HEHEHE. See you next friday/saturday! The monday after next week will be this blog's 2 year anniversary! I am thinking of maybe holding an international giveaway in celebration as a thanks for my readers so please look forward ^^

Thank you for reading  ♥
