🎂 Quarantine birthday + pressies!

On June 3rd I celebrated another birthday, and even tho it was a very different one because of the lockdown situation we're in, it was a fun and special day.

Since it was a Wednesday, I had a lot of work to do. We were juggling between work and celebration, haha, but it was also really nice to recieve sweet messages from my students and coworkers.
At home I was very spoiled by my mom and sister from the moment I woke up with special food, pressies and everything sakura/princess themed.

Even the meat was flower shaped. I took the pic before
adding the other ingredients to my burger. 

I also recieved surprises delivered to my house from friends and I got to see one of my besties for a couple of minutes because she and her hubby stopped by real quick to congratulate me and leave a pressie. I was so happy to see her after all this time. We kept our distance and wore masks all the time, of course. But it makes such a big difference to see someone in person even for a little while.

Once again I want to thank everyone who took the time to send me a message, a pressie, a virtual hug and good wishes. You all made my day a special one despite the lockdown.

Let's move on to the pressies, shall we? They are in no particular order and I kinda separated them by types.

First one is of course, the cake. It was a gorgeous choco mint, sakura cake from Chez Moi Reposteria. As some of you know, choco mint is one of my favorite combinations ever.

It was way too pretty, I felt bad for having to eat it but,
can't say no to cake!

Next are the beauty related goodies.
The Elegant Touch nails are one of my favorites, the sakura & matcha hand cream  smells so good and, I'm really looking forward to try the Burt's Bees products since I've heard many great things about them. And those Physicians Formula eyedshadows are super pretty to look at!

UPDATE: I've been using the B.B chapstic and... I LOVE IT!

Then we have yummies! Because I could eat candy instead of real food if it wasn't bad for the health. Haha.

Stationery! Inside the HK notebook, there's a sweet letter from my friend. ♡

I also recieved some earrings. I actually wore the pink hearts on my birthday and they look so pretty!

The husbando! 😍

And, some clothes. The first outfit was the outfit of the birthday.

super wrinkled skirt. Oopsie!

So, that is that for this b-day post. Even tho I'm not the happiest about being a year older, I think I have my priotrities (a bit) more stright now, I'm more aware of the things I want and don't want, as well as the things I need to change. I also know that a nice glass of sake at the end of a long and tough day can always make me feel better. LOL.
A year older means... a little bit wiser. Haha.

Quarantine birthday will be a b-day to remember.
