Birthday at Sweet Paradise

Hello! It has been a while isn't it? I noticed that I haven't blogged for more than a week when I moved the pictures from my iPhone to my PC. I know it is bad not to blog but I have been very busy and lazy indeed. lol

Even now, I'm struggling writing the first draft of my thesis introduction which I have to submit in 15 hours!! I'm still on my first page and have to write at least 4 pages O.O I hope I can finish it soon and have time to go to bed.

I'll blog quick!

I went to Shinjuku for my junior's birthday last Sunday.

Outfit of the day, green!
It was the father's day!

Elmo sales man talking to a couple ;) jk of course the elmo can't talk. But so adorable, ain't it?

"the runner dog" in the middle of Shinjuku

It was hot and sunny that day!



Actually we planned to to Bitter Sweet, a sweet buffet restaurant on the top of Lumine Est but apparently it was full, we needed to wait for more than an hour and it wasn't possible for all of us, 8 people to sit in the same table. So we decided to go to Sweet Paradise, a cheaper sweet buffet.

Their sweets are okay but don't expect much for other food.

Group picture, there was a kind lady who offered to take a pic of us :)



We went to game center afterwards to take purikura and try our luck and skill on UFO catcher. One of us got one doll and the staff lady there gave us some vouchers of free tokens!

Playing with the free tokens

We ended up losing everything after an hour lol

the purikura

:)

Alright! I have to go back writing my thesis. I might blog again about my weekends in few days!
Have a great Monday :D

The beginning of rainy season

Rainy season has started here in Tokyo!
I don't hate rain but I hate going out on rainy days :(

this post is a sum up of what I've been doing for this week :D

I remember exactly it was raining when I had this chicken rice at Singapura cafe  in Roppongi.
It tasted awesome as I was craving for it and was tired after working.
many many many rainy days
I went to library a lot these days, to study for JLPT! XD

 

Rare pretty sunny sky!

Rainy season's flower; hydrangea!



I doodle when I am bored...






Today, had catching up lunch with Nayo at a cafe near my school, Cat's cradle.
I was so hungry that I forgot to take picture of my lunch :(

A cup of cappucino

I was talking to Nayo about how I never had an art caffe latte and I was playing with my cappucino to make one ;)

a sad face

So many travel books :)
Many people in the cafe are studying alone inside! loving the shop's atmosphere

Another friend came for lunch but Nayo had to go for class leaving us.
The another friend needed to kill 3 hours before going somewhere. So we took a walk around to take pictures.

The waseda bear is wearing new shirt!!:)
Passed this shrine
What I love the most in rainy season is definitely Hydrangea!:)

Brownies and a bottle of ginger ale at a cafe up on the hill.



It's going rain for almost the whole week tomorrow! then summer eventually will come...


edit:
I just posted a new project on my project blog!! Looking forward to see you there!!

One fine day in Shinjuku

My class yesterday was canceled, I have no class today and no class for next Monday. Which means I have a very long weekend ;)

I was in Shinjuku the whole day today! I know I've been to Shinjuku too much but Shinjuku is my fave place to hang out! (one of the biggest reason must be coz it's close to where I live, easy access to get there! XD)

OOTD: summer outfit! it was the hottest day of the year today


After IPL treatment at a salon in Shinjuku (I missed the bus for few minutes and was late for the appointment  for 15 minutes -.-;),  I met up with Patty who I haven't met for weeks!! XD

Had this set of meal at Ootoya

After an hour more eating and catching up, we went for Karaoke

Patty looks younger with her new bangs :D

I'm in love with the room's vintage flowery wallpaper and red sofa!

Japanese karaoke isn't complete without singing AKB48's songs


Had my junior's birthday dinner at Lock up, the jail themed izayaka afterward.
My second time coming to this crazy themed izakaya (I went to different branch tho) so I wasn't as excited as before. But it was still indeed interesting!! :)

Greeted by a vampire

The alcohol in the tube tests. Some of them taste really bad XD

The pink drink with cotton candy was the best! 

We had the party all you can drink course and this was the caesar salad!
The monsters are coming out! :D

Hello! SCREAM!!


and one of them is bringing cake for the birthday boy!

The Indonesian gang

XD

My junior is living in the dorm I used to live and there were bunch of people from that dorm too at his birthday party. It was interesting to get to know them and to hear a lot of the stories about their dorm life. It seems like the dorm I used to live isn't the same anymore. As there are hardly people I know who are still living there (my ex dorm is a dorm only for freshman and sophomore, you have to move out after the 2nd year). The dorm is just a building, what creates the atmosphere are people who are living in there :)
I haven't visited my ex dorm yet ever since I moved out. But I'm pretty much sure if I were visiting, it would bring me nostalgia yet I would feel like a stranger.

Anyway I had lots of fun today for the whole day!! :D 

Hmmm.. I'm so nervous for work tomorrow, double shifts, double weddings and I don't know whether my arms have the power to bring super heavy trays and plates for 8 hours. I'm really afraid of causing trouble... But I can't do nothing but trying my best.

Wish me luck! good night :D

The Ameliebe Project is officially launced


Hi!! I just started a project blog which hopefully will help me to be creative all the time.
More project will be posted soon and I will be happy to have you visiting! :)


  *The Ameliebe Project*
 I've spent hours making the best layout for my blog as well as writing projects :)

This is my final layout

I know, it must be hard to keep blogging regularly on two blogs. Even if this blog and the other blog are having completely different type of content. But I will try my best!!
Many more projects to come! I am so excited and challenged to do them :)

English summer camp

Good evening! :)

I'm still busy with school works as usual. But I chose to blog rather than continuing finding more evidences for my thesis... (I still have few more days before the due date XD)

...............

I have been through a lot of rough times ever since I came back to Japan last March. Although I am generally still happy but I haven't felt extremely happy these days (I'm so sure that I was so much happier last term).
All I can do now is trying to appreciate all the rough things I am facing and had faced than being too depressed and down. There must be some good things waiting for me ahead in the future #positivethinking :D

This is not a picture for today, but around 10 days ago?! XD


I slept at 3 A.M the day before and woke up pretty late today

Lunch: Fried rice, I basically just mixed everything from my fridge


Went to Shinjuku to shop for watch and shoes with Ohia (she was looking for black t-shirt).

The watch I got today. I am needed to wear a watch  for work!!
Although I was told to get a metal watch, this one is cuter. I hope this will do :D

Rainy Shinjuku. It was so sunny and suddenly rain just poured down.
what a weird weather! I can sense the rainy season is coming


I couldn't find the black formal shoes I was looking for in Shinjuku. Parted with ohia as I had to go to Ouji for an English summer camp's captain interview! (another short part time job to do in summer)

Ouji is a suburb located in the north of Tokyo! I do like that place! So different with where I am living now :D


Many high schoolers and old people there

The building where I had interview

I had McD for dinner after the interview to satisfy my french fries craving.
Fast food is only good for the few first bites though...
Ouji is kind old fashioned but pretty much has everything in it :D

On the way home by the tram

Before going home, I finally found a pair of formal black shoes at an old shoe store near the station!
Cheap and comfy, perfect for work :D

I think I spent most of my first day salary to buy them.
Earning money is hard, spending money is easy.

It is great that I appreciate my money more now after knowing how hard it is to earn money, especially by waitressing...
I have work tomorrow! Hope it will be better than last week
