Koi Fish

The start of 2013 wasn't easy for me, We had to take my mum to the hospital and she had to undergo an operation because of an infected wound on her finger which was a result of her Diabetic condition. We were so relieved cause we thought they were going to cut her finger off but luckily they managed to save it. But *sigh* it's gonna take another 2 weeks of antibiotics before they can finalize whether or not it'll heal up completely, but doc said the signs are good so far, just didn't want to make any statements til then. 

Mommy's fighting spirit lol!

the view from our window

 

Hi Maruneko!

Every morning and evening, my mom and I would walk around and drink coffee/chill. 

maruneko would tag along, too lol!

spotted this pretty little thing :3

with the pretty fishies!

I really liked that white one, some hyper active fishies they are.

 

Anyway, This is to all of us! 2013 fighting!

Til tomorrow!

Pastel Cats

Hello! Sure is nice to be back! *streeeetch*

Now, I'm wondering how many posts can I publish in one sitting. hmm~

Boy oh boy~ But better have one than none. So what better way to start off this bloggie than to post my recent cuteness acquisitions, these were bought around oct to dec of last year, I just got around to taking photos so without further ado.

The cutest pile in the world that day. How cute is the mint Arpakasso and the Ice Cream Rila! I've yet to take photos but for the mean time, some Maruneko Club goodness! 

These three came in from Japan via our local shopping service. I really like the blue one best cause of the fuzzy turtle on top ;) purple one with onigiri wants to loose some pounds lol!

These are two of my favorites! That little rascal with the strawberry screams Ichigo love!

If I'm going to name them, it'll be Ichigo and Hana, or maybe, Momo instead of Hana? 

One can only imagine my delight when I got these!! They actually Akechi Mitsuhide and Oda Nobunaga, they look like they're BFFs lol! Nice beard, Nobu-sama! I am quite the samurai junkie but we'll get more in to samurai cats later on this week, I am actually working on a diorama, just waiting for a few more cats to come in... Shinsengumi cats.. ;)) *or am I the only one excited here?!*

A handful of little rascals!Grrr lookie the furry haired one, so fluffy!!

Yay for kitty coin banks! Won't you be compelled to save if say, these kitties are asking you to feed them monnies? lol

I was told they were quite rare since the coin bank collection was manufactured way way back, but iono! so long as they're Maruneko Club ;)

So there! That is just the tip of the iceberg, as far as kawaii stuff is concerned.

I am also going to give myself a pat on the back because I've completed my favorite collection from Maruneko, Sakura love goodness!!

Also, my mum just got out of the hospital, thank goodness. 

Will go in to details tomorrow, so see ya!

Of being mean and melancholy.

                      

Hello! Just a very quick life update!

We saw The Expendables 2 a few days ago. 

Man, it was funny! I'd say it was well worth it!

Now who wants to go watch Brave with me?

My first take on leopard spot nails. 

At first I didn't know what I was doing lol but when I finished I realized it looks really cool.

Think I'll have to do better next time though.

My new baby Tori wants to say hello!

We were lucky to have been given a freebie when we bought tickets.

 Expendables 2 dog tag, mega coooolio!

Anything free is fine by me loool

  

I took so many photos that day because my Tori is just grrrr!

playing with Photowonder app. 

 

Mew so proud of my baby sister cause she did my hair, I really liked it!

last one I promise!

 

we had gelato, very sinful! I gained 5lbs by the way.. wanna know who be the culprit?

Wintermelon milk tea.. that little bugger! 

Stay away from milk tea, they sure as hell can sneak up on ya if you're not careful!

 

NY Cheesecake. I'd be the one to talk about milk tea when I'm self indulging ahahah

practice what you preach!

Even baby wants to taste!

And my new cats! I really adore the pink one wearing a big smile

and the rabbit one, too! Never though I'd get my hands on a rabbit maruneko!

I believe there is a pink rabbit maruneko from the same collection.. 

Hope I'll get lucky next time!

Not a good day today but if I can do well on my own just for tonight..

then I'll be fine for the entire  week and if I can manage then maybe I'll be fine like this for the rest of my life! MEEH, have to pull myself together, gotta watch my own shadow!

Hope you are doing well wherever you are!

Til next post!

Of Hopes and Prayers: Hello, Sweet Sunshine.

Hello! This long over due post is... long..over due because of that bastard cloud which caused yet another apocalyptic rainfall,  it was raining for days, it'll stop for like a few minutes then it'll come down again! We've been ill deprived of sun light, and we don't even have a typhoon just that over active, attention seeking bitch of a rain cloud aka Monsoon rains. But today is a better day, the sun is out, people returning to their homes, and business continues like a  mad woman on crack.

Sorry I just had to rage at the weather but I'm okay, we're all okay! And I'm in a great mood today! Here are some non plushie Maruneko collectibles I've acquired as of late. Hope you like!

Super cute Maruneko file case!

Cute cats all over!

Not gonna use this ever heehee!!

It came with a drawing pad, some coloring materials, and a card. It should have had a box of crayons but I'm not complaining! 

Really cute charms! they are a bit heavy though. 

Some more kawaii charms! charms like these were very hard to acquire!

I was getting bored with my decals so I thought I'd do an ombre this time.

Loving gradient nails so far, will be doing loads of these soon!

Sulky selca!

was totally faking it! lol

Today, mum made me my favorite snack! Spam Musubi!

Itadakimasssu!!

 Along with the unremitting rain, flood, thunder, scarcity of supplies and a blackout, there were  countless prayers and strong hopes..  I was very fortunate cause my family and I are together, we live on a rocky hill and the only damage we had aside from our seeping walls, are broken windows. Our flooded streets kept me from going to work or from doing the groceries, Luckily we had enough food stocks to last us several days. It is just now that the floods are starting to subside, the sun is out but the sky isn't clear yet but it's good to feel a warm breeze again. I hope and pray that all my friends are in good hands, and that help and rescue would come to those who are in need of it. 

Thank You for reading!

Til next post!
