Bye Bye To My Fav Month~ | October Recap Pt. 2 |

Is it just me or this month felt suuuuuper duper short? I need more October!!

In a way, this is going to be the second part of the October So Far post I shared before, so hopefully, this one won't be extra long. No promises tho~

The second half of the month didn't slow down, work was busy, especially with new teachers joining and constant meetings. There were days where I was just exhausted at the end of the day and didn't feel like doing many extra things during the week other than watching some shows and movies after work, having seasonal yummies & other small things here and there.

I put some Halloween pressies together to give before actual Halloween.

I was so excited to get some Halloween goodies for my babies too. Maybe way more excited than they were, haha.

I also received other pressies, I'll share everything in a separate post soon.

One fun event I went to was the Saitama Fest, you know I love Japanese culture so, I had to go. I went with my sister and, even tho it was super crowded, we enjoyed it a lot, ate, drank, listened to some live music and, of course, did some shopping. I'm working on a haul post to show you what I got. I believe this is the second year they hold this event here and I'm sure I'll continue going if it becomes an annual thing.

I had the best Sake ice cream ever! ❤

The seasonal eating and drinking continued with a delish pumkin roll I found at Walmart, I love it because this year, they finally came out with more pumpkin & apple pastries. This roll in particular was so good and fresh, I was obsessed. I also found this Rifel pan de muerto muffin, which was pretty good too, really tasted like pan de muerto and, I love pan de muerto. This was a bit of a miss for me but, I'm gonna include it here anyway. I tried one of Tim Hortons' seasonal drinks and, it disappointed me. The one I had was the ube caramel latte, I had no expectation but it was overly sweet, very thick and caramel was the only thing I could taste. I'm gonna be very honest here, when Tim Hortons first opened here, I was so excited and, I really want to love it but, the few things I've tried so far hadn't been my favs~ We'll see what happens in the future.

I also found a Patti LaBelle Sweet Potato Pie at Walmart which was so delish guys, it tasted more like pumpkin pie in a baby version, super spiced, super good! 

A fun find was  the Vualá Switch that had this zombie vibe to it with vibrant Halloween colors and a unique taste. It is a chocolate and orange cake and I loved it so much, I could eat it all year round.


Other yummies: Bloody cookies made by my sister and a pan de muerto hamburger thingy. Both were so good! 

Last thing is not Halloween or seasonal but, it is coffee and, iykyk. I tried Costa Coffee. I've seen it a lot but we don't have it where I live so, it was nice to find it at the supermarket. This one was Chinese for some reason but, it was pretty good! I had the black americano, it wasn't super strong but delish. It had a very sublte sweetness to it and, caffeine was caffeining.


 Well, that was enough food for one post, let's move on to what I watched this month. I'm not gonna include the ones I mentioned in the last post, guess it'll be more about what I watched this past 2 weeks. It's honestly not that much but, I recently shared a post dedicated to some other shows and movies in case you wanna check it out. 

The first show I'm gonna share is It: Welcome to Derry, I liked it, it was fun and well made, I just didn't love it. I wouldn't say It or even Pennywise are my favorites so, yeah. Another show I watched was Cautiva, a drama miniseries from Argentina based on a true story. This was recommended by one of my students and, I loved it. I will watch everything that's religious and dark, is one of my fav combos ever. It's only 6 episodes long and each episode is a little over 30 mins so, you can easily watch it in a couple of days. This next movie wasn't exactly my favorite but I'll include it anyway, Tormented, a British black comedy, teen slasher movie from the early 2000s. And I mean, I enjoy teen slashers but this one was... ok? It's kinda gory but not realistic cuz effects arent exactly the best.

After many years, I watched The Little Vampire again. This is a fun and even cute vampire movie from 2000, where did time go! We used to be so obsessed with it and it was a nice blast from the past for me. I can't believe I still remember some of the dialogues, especially after all these years!

Lastly, this month my beloved Bleach finally came to an end with Bleach TYBW: The Calamity last two episodes. It is kinda bittersweet because I love this anime so so much, I has a very special place in my heart and so many good memories. The whole TYBW Arc was perfection! I could get more into it but, it'd made this post super long. So I'll just say that even tho it was nice and fun to see the characters and their lives 10 years later, something was missing. The ending felt rushed and I feel like many things were left unfinished or unexplained. I know the manga has a lot more but, I haven't read it yet.

Moving on to favs of the month, I think I only have a fav lip combo to share: The Beauty Creations Plump & Pout Plumping Lip Liner with the Essence What the Fake! Plumping Lip Filler. Yeah, plumping product with pumping product haha. Sometimes I like to fill my lips with the liner and top it with the gloss and, other times I just outline them and apply the gloss. They are very similar in shade so, it works! It's been my go-to combo.💋 

And, as if this post wasn't already super long, I decided to add a little something: beauty empties. Just because I recently ran out of two products I really liked. I'll be brief, I promise. Haha.

The first product is the COSRX Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream, I tried the miniature from the COSRX All About Snail Kit 4 In One, I want to get the full size product cuz it did a great job hydrating my eye area and my fine lines felt a little softer somehow.

The other one is the Hoygi Ultimate Moisturizing Cream, I used it for about 5 months and really liked it. It is good for mature skin, reduces wrinkles and fine lines, hydrates and tightens the skin. I have a new one to try so I guess I won't be repurchasing it for now but, that doesn't mean I wouldn't do it in the future.

Before we end this post, we have to talk about Halloween because, it was the holiday this month. Honestly, I had a very quiet one because I wanted it to be like that. Like I mentioned before, it was a busy month and all I wanted was some time to relax. I realised that as much as I love to dress up and do something fun on actual Halloween, I also enjoy doing and trying all these other things throughout the month and not just focus on something big on the 31st. I dressed up and went to a party last year, this year I didn't even plan a costume. Who knows what next year will be like, hehe.

I ate Halloween sushi, I believe it was called Dracu Roll, had a pumpkin capuccino and ended my day watching Japanese horror movies with snacks and beer. 

With that, we are going to finish this October recap part 2. I really hope you all had an amazing October and a fun Halloween. Feel free to let me know what you did or if you dressed up. Remember that, it's still Fall and we have plenty of time to enjoy more cozy activities.

See you next time~!💋

| Spookifying The Month | October So Far~ 🧙

Half of the month has already gone and I feel like it has flown by so fast! Since it's my favorite month, I wanted to have a short midmonth recap just to catch up and share a bit of what I've doing so far. 

Honestly, the month has been busy with work so I haven't been out a lot but, I'm still incorporating seasonal things to my everyday to make it more whimsy.

Starting with my decor. As you might already know, I love to decorate for Halloween. Sometimes I do it weeks before October starts. I have to have everything ready by Oct. 01st. This year wasn't the exception, but, I didn't go all the way out with it, dunno why. And, I have to say I haven't bought many new things, I'm using what I already had from other years. 

There's something cozy about having Halloween decor in the apartment. I also did some decoration at work but, I don't have pics of that.

Now, I'm someone who watches horror all year round so, this year I wanted to focus on watching more Helloweeny, fun things throughout the month. And yeah, I've watched some horror (especially Japanese horror) but, I'll share just the cutesy seasonal stuff for now.

First, I finally watched It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown I wanted to watch it last year but, for whatever reason, I never did. It was my choice to welcome the month and, it was soooo worth it! It was cute, fun and perfect to add a little Fall/Halloween something to my day. It was also my first time paying attention to a Charlie Brown cartoon, I really enjoyed it.

Moving on, my sister and I started this tradition of going to the movies as soon as Fall or October stars, and get seasonal Krispy Kremes on that same day. This year instead of horror, we went with my mom and watched Practical Magic 2. I was really looking forward to it and, it took us a while to go watch it. Idk what others think of it, really. I haven't paid much attention to the reviews but, I love the 1st movie and I really enjoyed this one too. It made me so emotional I even cried.

In my head, I was going to watch so many shows and movies but, sometimes I am super tired at the end of the day and I don't wanna focus on anything so, my list of shows isn't long at all. I was SO excited when I found out Haunted Hotel released a second season. I loved season 1 last year and this year was not the exception. If you haven't watched it, I highly recommend it, it's so fun and cozy to watch.

Lastly, we have Is it cake? Halloween 2026. I watch this shows every year, only the Halloween specials, haha. It's just so entertaining, not scary at all but, still keeping the seasonal magic.

And, I think that's it for shows & movies. There are still shows I want to finish watching this month so, we'll see how that goes. Let's move on to what I've been reading so far...

I'm going to mention 2 books even tho maybe it's officially just one, haha. But, at the beginning of the month, I read Baby Monsters Dracula as a fun, little way to start the month on a working day. My mom gave me the book as part of my Halloween gifts last year because I love vamps and, I never really read it. It was honestly really cute.

The other one is Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu, a vampire book I really wanted to read after listening to so many people recommending it, especially if you liked Dracula. It was a short read, but I really liked it. I'm hoping to read another book before the month is over, I just haven't decided on one yet.

When it comes to going out, I've been in the hunt for seasonal drinks and food and, even tho I've been out & about, not everything has been completely seasonal. Of course part of that has been buying Halloween gifts, lots of window shopping and visiting a few places that are or have seasonal stuff. Not too many tho~

Seeing things like these even at the supermarket makes me SO happy! 

Every year I go to the Alfeñique Fair, which starts earlier each year, OMG. This was supposed to start at the end of the month cuz it is to celebrate the Day of the Dead, I mean, I don't mind going earlier but, yeah. I've gone twice so far, the first time was with my sister. We went there early cuz we didn't want it to be super crowded as it usually is, we did find some people but, we were able to walk around, check the stalls and decoration. Surprisingly, we didn't buy anything but, it was a nice Alfeñique date. Hehe.

I love how colorful everything is.

Another annual tradition for me is going with my friends to Macadamia Gourmet and have their seasonal menu. So, we had a witchy date, caught up and enjoyed some seasonal drinks. We had to take a pic with the skelly they always have, he's our friend now, haha. After delish drinks, we decided to walk around the fair, this time at night to see everything illuminated. It was SUPER crowded as expected but it was defo a different vibe. Plus, we saw a lot of great costumes, people taking pics and eating street food. 

I have to share some of the other seasonal yummsies I've had so far...

From left to right: Krispy Kreme Pumpkin Cheesecake Donut, that was soooo good, I liked it more than last year's pumpkin spice donut, Pumpkin Spice from The Coffee, you know I had to. Plus, they gave us some stickers with our drinks. And, the Chicken Frankie sub, Subway's Halloween special. It may not look that good but, it's delicious.

Since not everything in my life can be going out and all that fun stuff, I've also tried to keep the whimsy in my everyday activities at home, a super easy and free way to spookify my normal and not so exciting adult days.

One thing I love to do is to use my Halloween mugs, glasses, plates, napkins. Everything that can turn a normal meal into a fun one.

Other simple things are adding witchy touches like, magical looking eye patches, putting a fun outfit together (this one was Gillian Owens inspired), paying attention to those small messages that can make my day better. I don't have pics of this but, I also changed my bag charm to a bat one, I'm taking a bats tote to work and we can't forget about my Halloween tees and accesories. 

I can't finish this post without including some Halloween pressies I have recieved so far. To me, Halloween season is like my Christmas and I love it when people think of me during the season. So, I really appreciate and love these things. I recieved some of these at the end of September but, yeah, I'm still including them here.

I'll share a bit more about the pressies in another post later in the month. ❤ 

And, that's it for now, I didn't think this midmonth recap will be this long! It's been fun so far even tho I still don't know what I'm going to do on actual Halloween, I'm just enyojing whatever comes. 
Hope you're having an amazing and magical month. 

See you next time~!💋

October/Fall Chit Chat: Living & Breathing My Fav Season Without Stress 🎃🍂

October and Fall are here, and that makes me really happy! It’s true when I say I want lo live and breathe Fall (and especially spooky season) as much as possible but, that also made me realize I used to put too much pressure on myself to pack as many seasonal activities as possible in one month or I’d feel like I was missing out.

I was thinking about that days so, I thought that I could have a little chitchat with you about it and also share some of the things I want to do this month to enjoy the season without stress, haha. This might be a little all over the place tho~ (I bet no one is surprised at this point).

When I was younger, had more free time and less responsibilities, I loved to plan my Halloween costume even months before actual October, plan lots of activities and places to go with friends and family and of course, buy a ton of new stuff every year. And don’t get me wrong, I still love all that but, we’re all adults with some not-so-fun responsibilities and priorities and sometimes it’s just hard to have a fun, big plan every week or weekend with everyone.

And, for the past few years, that idea made me feel like I wasn’t enjoying the season as I should. Of course there is no right or wrong way to enjoy a season but, it took me a while to understand it. It’s especially hard when you see people online doing all these fun, themed stuff “all the time” but you just have to deal with your everyday job and wait until the weekend to have some fun.

Last year I made a list of things I wanted to do throughout October, not as a to-do list, more as a reminder and to give me ideas of some things I could plan whenever I had the time. And it went pretty well, I didn’t do everything I wrote in there, but I can say I did at least half of it. And It wasn’t even all about going to places or events.

This year, I also made one, but I tried to focus on realistic things I know I can do and would actually enjoy. I'm not attending to a random Halloween party this year because last year I tried that and, it was a big fail. Dressing up for it was fun tho~

This time I want to stretch those things into November too cuz, even tho spooky season ends with October, November it’s still Fall, and it’s still perfect for cozy activities. Among the things I want to do this Fall are some of the things I didn’t get to do last year like taking a cementery stroll with a seasonal drink, baking cookies (I know I can do this anytime but Fall feels just perfect for that), and cook something comforting and seasonal. Continue with the traditions I have with friends and family, like getting the first pumpkin spice latte of the year with my mom, visit Macadamia Gourmet with my friends and try the seasonal menu, make boo baskets and prepare some gifts and go to the Alfeñique Fair. And, of course, a few new things such as going on a solo date and look for a spooky book, making time for some cozy hobbies like coloring and go back to the Inquisition Museum cuz I haven't been there in ages. Add to that, eating and drinkin as many seasonal yummies as possible.

As for my shopping, I've been trying to be more intentional with the Halloween things I buy, I already have too much decor so, I'm trying to get only pieces I love and know will have a place in my house. But, I still can't resist to get some random trinkets, haha. The rule this year was not to get anything for myself so people could have more options when putting my gifts together. (I might have broken that rule just a little).

I've also been looking for ways to romanticize the season even when I'm at home or working. Part of that is on the small things like having my coffee using my seasonal mugs, taking out the Halloween plates for whenever I eat something, watching some Halloweeny shows and movies and even sharing some seasonal stuff with my students. Haha. 

We're already a few days into the month so, of course I already started with some of these and, it feels great! I guess I'll share more of what I've done in a few weeks cuz you know, sharing is caring. LOL.

That's it for now, random, I know but, I've been feeling yappy lately~!

See you next time~!💋

Let the best part of the year begin! | September Recap |

September is a bittersweet month for me. On the one hand, it is the beginning of Fall, my favorite season that comes with so many fun things including my beloved spooky season but, on the other hand, it's the month we found out my dad was sick and the month we lost him. I don't think I've shared much about that in here. It's been 4 years now and it's still difficult. A part of me thought that I was not going to be the person who would remember the bad and would only remember the happy moments with him but, I realised I have no control over that and, at some point, all those memories just come back. So, this year I decided to accept I'm gonna feel emotional througout the month but, I'm also going to find the good in everyday and make it a better one. 

Part of those things were: paying attention to the little things that could make day a little magical, decorating for Fall, looking forward to a new episode of one of my favorite anime, etc. And, I also decided to take on a few small projects in the house. Plus, I've been fully back to work and, keeping my mind busy has helped a lot too.


An exciting thing was the fact that we finally have a Tim Hortons where I live! And by that I mean, really close to my place, which is a weird thing. My friend (aka Taichou) Aiden made me like Tim Hortons cuz he'd bring some cappuccino boxes everytime he visitied and, I really wanted to try more from their menu. Since it recently opened, it's always busy but we were lucky when we went for the first time cuz it wasn't as crowded. And even tho it's a small drive thru, it made me SO happy.


And, of course, Fall is here! And it always comes with some seasonal yummies. I usually buy some of the same things every year but, I love to find new ones to try. So far I've tried the Holanda Pumpkin Spice ice cream that, is pretty good but I wish was a little bit bigger, I also found an Olé Pan de Muerto cappuccino, it's a limited edition flavor. I thought was so fun and, it is delish. I need to get more next time I go to the supermarket. I've also gotten some Halloween cookies, regular cookies with Halloweeny designs. Last year I started trying pumpkin spice coffee from other places that are not just Starbucks, the first I had this year was a dalgona pumpkin from Miamoru Café, which is a Korean restaurant. I still love the Starbucks one but, there's something fun about trying new places too. 

Of course, there are so many more things I want to try cuz, you know, it's part of making the most out of the season.

I'm a little late with this but I want to make a Fall to-do list, last year I made one and I realized I was able to do most of the activites I wrote down. It's just a good way for me to remember the things I wanna plan and do througout the season (not just during October). And I was pretty flexible with it really, I remember I couldn't do a few things but, it was just fine.

I also started buying a few Halloween goodies for my boo baskets and Halloween pressies. It just makes me so happy.

And, I think that's everything when it comes to life updates, now let's move on to shows, books and some other favorites~

Starting with TV, I should've finished Bleach this month but, for some reason, they decided to delay the last 2 episodes so, we'll be watching them next month. I'm ok with it tho, I'm not ready for it to be over yet. I finally finished Manpuku which was a bit of a long show with 151 episodes but, I enjoyed every bit of it. There was something very comforting about watching it. Plus, it always made me hungry since there's a lot of ramen involved. Hehe. I finished Badly In Love season 2, loved it as much as I loved the first season. It's addictive! I hope they release another season soon. 

As for movies I recently (and finally) watched Obsession, really good, defo worth the hype and Gretel and Hansel, it was an interesting watch. I think I'll share more about those in a movie & shows post in the future.

The book I read this month was the Full Metal Panic! Collector's Edition 1, there's a separate post dedicated to it but, I loved it so, so much. It's fun, emotional and packed with action. It just reminded me of how much I love this story and the anime. I'm defo going to buy the other volumes. I need them all! Hehe.

And, I'm gonna finish this recap with a product I've been loving lately, the COSRX Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream I started using this month. It's the small size that came in the COSRX All About Snail Kit 4 In One. I've noticed a slight difference in my fine lines around my eyes, especially when I smile. It's not like they are completely gone but, they are not as harsh, if that makes any sense. And that's a big deal for me because I hate those fine lines and crow's feet.


 That's pretty much it for this post, guys. It's been busy but good, can't complain. I'm excited for the most wonderful time of the year (October) and what it'll bring, hehe. I really hope you had a good month. Feel free to share some of your plans for next month with me. I'd really love to know!

See you next time~!💋

My Current Go-To #2

A few months ago I shared a Current Go-To post, I found it short but fun so I thought I'd share a second one. Some of the go-tos are similar and some things haven't changed for me but, let's do this!

My go-to comfort food: is still ramen! Especially now that the weather is getting colder.

My go-to drink: Coffee (hot or cold), beer and soju. Nothing has changed here from the last go-tos post, hehe.

My go-to outfit: Jeans and a blouse or tee. I want to be creative with outfits again and dress a lot cuter or just better but, I'm too lazy most of the time. LOL.

My go-to place to relax: I'd say my living room. Even tho it's still a work in progress atm cuz I'm still redecorating it a little. I love to spend some slow time there reading, drinking something and just relaxing with my babies.

My go-to snack: Chips, corn churritos and similar things haha. I've been enjoying some chicken popcorn or enchiladas potosinas as snacks sometimes too.

Churritos con ketchup are SO GOOD. Hehe.

My go-to song when I need motivation: Whoo by Rainbow. I know it is an older song but, it puts me in a good mood whenever I listen to it.

My go-to weekend activity: Other than going out (which I love), I'd say just catching up with shows or watching some movies. I don't watch much TVduring the week so, yeah.

My go-to way to start my morning: I love a slow morning and I'll make the most out of it whenever I have the chance but, that's not always the case. I'd say having a big, hot cup of coffee is my go-to way to do it.

My go-to movie or TV show to rewatch: Full Metal Panic! Is an anime I'm constantly rewatching. It is one of my favorite, comfort shows and now that I've been reading the novels, I feel the need to rewatch the seasons as soon as I finish the books. I never get tired of it.  


My go-to hobby:
I guess blogging. It is something I really enjoy doing. I also try to spend some time scrapbooking / junk journaling, even tho I mostly do it like once or twice a month, depending on how many things I've collected for it.


And, that's it! Feel free to share some of your go-tos with me. I'd love to read! Especially now that the best and cozier part of the year is here! (In my heart, it's already Fall, ok? hehe)

See you next time~!💋

August Recap: Time For Our Monthly Catch Up!

Kinda sad August is over cuz, it's been a fun month! It felt eventful, a little more social and, I just enjoyed it a lot!

Starting with the fact that there's already some Halloween/Fall stuff in some stores. I know it's early for some but, it just makes my heart so happy! My bestie was the one who told me about it and, we went together to check some stuff. We didn't buy anything yet but, we got that very needed Fall boost on a hot summer day. After that day, I started finding more and more seasonal goodies. Can't wait for Fall!

We also celebrated two of my best friends' birthdays cuz they not only share the same name, but also the same bday month. It was a lot of fun. I always have a great time with my friends, I missed reunions like this where we talk about everything, laugh, and eat a lot. 

This might be a little random but, I love Sakura and Sasuke together so, I have to include this here. On a random weekend I received a Sasuke keychain plush from my friends, they know I'm Mrs. Uchiha, haha. He's just soooo cute! And, the next day, my mom gave me a Sakura plush. Sakura is one of my fav characters but, I don't have many Sakura goodies. She's adorbs. To me, it was destiny, hehehe.

Somehow this month was full of K-pop and Korean goodies. Stray Kids released their new album This & That on a wine night so, that was the main focus of it. We listened to it with SKZOO and themed goodies. The album is actually pretty good, it has a little bit of everything and it's been on repeat for me. I hadn't been so obsessed with a kpop group in a while.

Then, we finally started getting some K-pop Demon Hunters food over here. Mom discovered this cup noodles and, of course we had to try them. Both are really good but, the curry one is just delish! Defo my favorite. Alsoooooo, Mc Donald's finally brought the Huntr/x and Saja Boys meals. I had been waiting for this collab for months! At some point I thought we were not going to have it. We tried it the same week it came out starting with the Huntr/x meal that included nuggets, fries with a ramyeon seasoning (that was SO FREAKING GOOD), demon sauce a berries drink and collectible cards. A week later we got the Derpy Sundae, I rarely sundaes but, it was pretty good. No regrets.  I love Mc D's, I really enjoyed it. I still have the Saja Boys meal pending to try. We'll see if I end up doing it next month.

Continuing with the K-wave, haha. I tired South Korean beer for the first time! The one we found was, Kloud. Weird, huh? I've tried different Japanese ones but, never Korean. And, I really liked it. It was so nice and easy to drink! Along with that, we had makgeolli. It had been a while for me and my mom and, the first time for my sister. We found these fun looking Canmak flavored makgeolli at the supermarket and decided to get them. Defo worth it!

I think that's it for the Korean stuff, haha. Let's move on to some of  the things I've been watching and reading and monthly favs.

On my last monthly recap, I mentioned how excited I was to finally start watching Bleach Thousand-Year Blood War: The Calamity and, it was just starting. I've been watching a new episode every week and, it's been perfect! So, I need a moment to fangilr about a couple of things, starting with how cute it is to see Ichigo and Orihime fighting together. Not him fighting to protect her but, working as a team. The way they understand each other is just so, so cute. I love how their relationship has progressed. I had been waiting for it for the longest time. Something else I had been (not so) patiently waiting for was adult Hitsugaya Taichou! I love him, ok? Don't judge me. I mean, he's always been great but his adult form and attacks were so ASDFGHJKL. I can't. I was fangirling like crazy. I need more!! Watching him fight along Byakuya was pretty cool too. They make a good team. I think so far we're halfway through and every episode just keeps getting better.

Along with Bleach, I'm rewatching Jujutsu Kaisen season 2. I'm watching it with a lot more love to certain characters this time so, things hit different. I love my boys, Gojo and Geto and it hurts to see how much their relationship slowly changed. I kinda want to rewatch everything before a new season is released cuz I know the characters better and notice things I didn't the first time I watched these seasons.

Apart from anime, I've been watching other Japanese shows. One is Mampuku, a drama based on the story of Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods. This one is a long one so, I haven't finished it yet but, since the episodes are only 15mins long, I try to watch many when I have the chance. The other is a reality show... yeah. I think sometimes reality TV can be my guilty pleasure, hehe. It's Badly in love, a Netflix reality show in which 11 singles with yankii pasts as live together for 2 weeks to find love, but they end up learning a lot more about life and themselves than just finding love. I finished the first season in like a week and I'm currently watching season 2 cuz, it's still ongoing. I'm obsessed!

I've been watching some movies too but, I'll save those for another post.

As for books, this month I read 2, so yay! Hehe. The first one was Unsolved Mysteries. It took me forever to finally finish it but, we did it! After that one, I read the Sakura Hiden: Thoughts of Love, Riding Upon a Spring Breeze, I read it in spanish years ago and I honestly didn't remember much of it. This time I read it in English and liked it a lot more. It felt kinda new again and since it's a light novel, I finished it in a week.

To finish this post, I wanna share some things I've been loving lately. I'll start with one I've already shown in a previous post, my ice roller. It's super nice and easy to use evey morning. It has defo helped to depuff my face in the morning and, in a ways, the coolness of it makes me wake up too, hehe. I recently changed the plain water for some green tea.

The other beauty product is one I recently bought and has worked very, very well is the Ecco Bella Desmaquillante Bifásico 3 en 1. This is a supermarket product, pretty cheap and, it does the job. Works great when it comes to gently removing my waterproof mascara and eyeliner with no effort. It's oil based and it hasn't given my eyes (or skin in general) any irritation or reaction. It has vitamins A, C, and E and it's suitable for all skin types.

Last is the Nescafé Espresso Concentrate Vanilla, last month I tried the unflavored one and this month I got the vanilla version. It is slightly sweet, so it's perfect if you want coffee with a little extra something. But honestly, if I had to choose, I'd defo go for the plain one for an everyday coffee.

And, I think that's it! I didn't think this recap would be this long, hehe. Big thanks if you read til the end. The fun part of the year is alomst here and I can't wait!

See you next time~!💋
