My Japan Bucket List

I was looking through my blog notes in the hopes of feeling motivated to write again when I saw this list I made almost two years ago. I have crossed out some of the things in my list but I still have a lot to do. 2020 and this year haven't been very giving, but since Japan has approved and is slowly rolling out vaccines maybe there is hope soon. So here is a list of the things I want to do while living in Japan:

The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck || Reading: Week 2

Okay, so I didn't do as I promised that I will be doing a reading every week. I have to apologize but it's just that I couldn't think or a question or topic for my reading. I guess I've also been busy with so much other things I need to accomplish (which I will update you guys about on my other blog posts eventually). But since I love you guys and I have promised as well, I have finally decided on my topic for this week which is:

How can I manage the stress I feel now?

Revlon Kiss Sugar Scrub (Sugar Mint) Review

During the winter season, my lips tend to be chapped. They get so dry and uncomfortable to the point that they hurt and bleed. The constant wearing of masks kind of help prevent it but it doesn't really stop it entirely. It's a big problem for me at times when I neglect them and I forget to put on a moisturizing balm on my lips which happens almost always because I am a busy busy gal.

Because of that, I needed a lip scrub and found Revlon"s Kiss Sugar Scrub and here's my review:

The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck || Reading: Week 1

My friend Alex got me interested in Tarot Cards. He did a reading for me once and I found it very interesting. It also was good guidance for the questions and thoughts I had at the time. One time when I was walking around a nearby bookstore, I found out they were selling different types of tarot cards. I've always thought the illustrations on the different decks were aesthetic and I wanted to see what other types there are. I happened to find The Sacred Self-Care Oracle Deck while I was browsing through Amazon JP. I thought it was beautiful so I decided to purchase it.

It's always hard to take care of oneself. We always think about what other people might think or feel, disregarding yourself. I, too, am guilty of this. I care so much about the world that I forget that it should be me first. Self-care should always be the first priority.

I would use this deck to guide me whenever I have self doubts, personal issues or just to decide what to do on a relaxing weekend. I do believe that the best thing is to meditate and pray always but it's fun to try to use this deck too. This deck will just be a visual guidance on what I would do about the things I would read about.

Goodbye, Blackheads?: Innisfree Blackout Balm Review

 

SEPTEMBER 4, 2020

I started using Innisfree Blackout Balm today in hopes of cleansing my pores. Having huge pores has always been a dilemma of mine and it can collect dirt that results to blackheads. I guess it's in my genes so it's annoyingly inevitable. Some seasons it isn't as bad for me and my pores are not as visible, but during the summer season oh man are they having the time of their life. Since it's hot, the pores tend to be more open and of course open pores mean they get to collect dust and dirt like a maniac.

So here's my review of this product:

A Solution for Pesky Dandruff Problems: Marks and Web Scalp Cleansing Gel and Scalp Balancing Gel Review

Before coming to Japan, I had my scalp checked by a dermatologist. I've always had dry scalp and a major problem with dandruff. I hate it. There were a lot of times when I wanted to wear black but I never did cause I'm scared of having dandruff fall on my shoulders making them too visible. It was embarrassing, but most of all uncomfortable. You always have that itchy feeling and when you try to scratch it, you just end up hurting yourself, like what you always do when you try to get back with your ex and end up hurting yourself all over again lol. Anyway, trying not to be side-tracked, I finally found a really good product to help me with my dandruff problem!

Life Lately Vol. 5 Birthday Month

I've just celebrated my birthday last month and of course, Facebook as usual showed me memories of my posts from years back. I noticed that I made wish lists every year. I used to write lists of things that were easy to acquire if I had the money--which I didn't have btw. Ah, simpler times. When you know it's easier to get the things that would make you happy. But why is it, that now that you have all the money to buy those things that used to be difficult for you to get, you crave for the things money can't buy.

Staying Sane With Animal Crossing

3 months left for 2020 and I'm going crazy.

2020 is proving to be the craziest year yet. And I bet that everyone is just done with this year now too (although I don't think that 2021 is gonna be any better). Most of the people I know in the Philippines are just having a bad time and they are forced to stay at home. I guess it isn't as bad here in Japan, but we're not having a good time either. We are just getting used to how life is now--The New Normal--as they call it.

Look at me blabbing about how I hate this year while I'm not even being productive either. My last post was last February which was also about how bad my life has been, not very inspiring I know. Give me a slack, I'm trying. All I've been doing lately is play video games and binge watch on Netflix.

This is probably the first time that you heard read that I play video games. Well it's because I didn't, not until Animal Crossing: New Horizons was released. I didn't have a Nintendo Switch when the game came out and I swear I wanted it so much I even had dreams about it. So one day, I decided to get one.

Life Lately Vol. 4 A New Year Post

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and be courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” –Joshua 1:9

It’s been more than 3 months since I last posted here and I know, I suck, just as much as the start of my 2020 was. I honestly still can’t process that we are just on the second month of this year and so much has happened and most of us are probably on high alert right now because of the Novel Coronavirus. But that’s a post for another day. For now, let me just greet everyone a late happy new year!
