Halloween Pressies 2026

 

Halloween might be over but, I still have one last Halloween thing to share with you, my Halloween pressies. You know I just love to share these type of posts with you every year. Who knows? Maybe it can give you some ideas for next year or inspire you to exchange boo baskets with friends or family. It's such a fun thing to do!!

This are in no particular order, I just tried to put some things together to keep the post a short and spooky so, let's get started~!

First we have some Halloween / witchy tote bags. I recieved some gifts in the ones in the left and the black on the right came in a basket with other goodies. I know I will be using them even when it's not Halloween, hehe.

Chucky goodies!
 For some reason, he keeps coming back to me, he's slowly becoming one of my fav characters. Have I mentioned Grandpa took me to watch that movie when I was a little girl? Maybe that's when my love for horror started.
I recevied a slightly cropped, grey tee and, a fun headband with a small plushie that lights up. 

Meet my new babies!
First is Tiago the bat, Halloween Hello Kitty and Jack (O' Lantern).
Love them so much!

Some decor and bath goodies.
The tiny ghost is a cup, it's defo going to stay on the coffee station.
It's my first time having a Halloween bath sponge, it's so cute! And, I can't wait to use the bath salt for a magical, relaxing, bath.

Cute little kit for a spell and, other written spells in the paper rolls.

Witchy stationery!
I'm obsessed with how beautiful the notebook is.

We have another tee, A Gilmore Ghouls one! everything about it is perfect considering I love GG, coffee and, Halloween! Hehe. My sister and mom also have one.
Spooky socks are alaways welcome and, an all-year round thing too.

Halloween can't be complete without some yummies.
Left: Sparkling rose wine.
Center: chocolate and gummies galore and, sweet potato pie.
Right: Chobani pumpkin spice creamer.

I also received other snacks and pastries at the beginning of the month but, they are already gone and, I never took a pic of them. Oh well~ 

I think with that, we are done with this pressies post. In a way, this it feels like a way to officially end Halloween season but, we still have a lot of Fall and, that makes me so happy.

See you next time~!💋

My Birthday pressies 2026 🎂

And just like that, I celebrated another birthday! It really is scary how fast time goes by~ But, like every year, I am going to share a bit of how I celebrated and, what I received this year. You guys know, I love making this posts, hehe.

Since my birthday was on a weekday, I started celebrating the weekend before with a yummy lunch date at Cheescake Factory on Friday and a birthday brunch on Sunday.

On my actual birthday (June 03rd) I got a surprise breakfast delivery from my mom and sister and my boss suprised me with a cake at work, later that day. Even tho it was a busy day, it was a nice one.

The next day, wine night was bday edition, we had dinner, delish matcha-chocolate cupcakes and I opened my pressies. On Friday, my friends came over with ramyeon and flowers and that weekend I continued celebrating with family and friends.

Celebrations were great, I ate and drank A LOT and I just love spending time with people I love. I'm spoiled, hehe.

Now, we are going to move to the pressies, they are in no particular order but, I did try to separate them into groups to make this post a little shorter. 

We'll start with the clothes, they are all winkly tho, cuz of course, I couldn't be bothered to iron them for the pics. Plus, I had already worn some of them before.

I know I say these often but, I'm really bad at taking clothes pics. With that being said, let's do this!

My Geto outfit! Haha.
These pieces came in a set and, I love them! It's the most comfortable outfit ever. 

I've been obsessed with the jeans! I always thought that cut wouldn't look good on me cuz I'm pretty short but, I was wrong. They are my favs atm.

Next, we have alcohol! I really love it when people give me alcohol, they just know. Hehe.

Last year, I decided to start reading more and, I've been recieving books and things to read ever since. I haven't had to buy many books really. And, I recieved some for my birthday too! I think I'm covered for a while, hehe.

I've been wanting a Derpy plushie for a while cuz he's my favorite ever and, I got him as a gift. He's the cutest and I love him so much.

I guess these were more like... celebration favors but I'm including them here cuz, they were super thoughtful and special considering this girl loves Halloween.

Does it make sense to put these goodies together? Idk

Cuz yeah, I'm still obsessed with everything sakura~

Love me some skincare!

And, with that, we close this pressies posts. June is still a bit of an emotional month cuz my dad's birthday was only a couple of days after mine, and I just miss him. But, it felt really good to be surrounded by people I love, it made it easier. 

Thanks to everyone who made my bday a special one, I'm very lucky to have you all ♡

As I usually do, I might write separate posts about some of the things in here, especially the books and products as I start using them.

See you next time~!💋

Pressies From Canada🍁

Last week my aunt and uncle came to visit, they usually come for vacations during the cold Canada winter and, we had the chance to spend some time with them before they returned. We have met around the same time for 2 years straight, I hope it becomes a family tradition. It's really nice to catch up, laugh and, of course, eat a lot and drink together hehe.

We had a great time. Mom got reunited with her aunt and uncle she hadn't seen in a long time too. They were all very happy to see each other.

They didn't have to but, they brought some pressies with them and, you all know I love making these posts. So, I'm gonna show you what I received, starting with the clothes.

This pieces are from the Cardinal Golf Complex, they are sporty clothes, super comfortable and have great quality, I already have a beanie my uncle gave me last year, it's great for the Winter time!

Excuse if my descriptions aren't all great, I know nothing about sports wear, hehe.

First we have a gray (looks too light on the pic tho) golf sweatshirt from TRIMARK, I already wore this one and it is the best! It is not thick at all, yet it keeps you warm without been too hot. I like the zipper detail on the front. And, of course, it has the Golf complex's logo. 

Next, is a red and gray jacket from ELEVATE, that even tho is not a rain jacket, it is waterproof. It's perfect because I don't own many jackets, I usually don't like them because most of them are really big and make me feel like a big, furry bear and find them uncomfortable to move around. This one is light and thin but, it gives you good coverage.

The last piece of clothing is this black sports jacket, super comfy and breathable. This one is a collab with Adidas and has the Golf Complex's logo on the back.

And now, we're gonna move on to bags.

Starting with the most special ones because they were both made by my aunt.

I had no idea my aunt could make this, but she made a different bag for me, my mom and my sister. Different styles and colors. 

I love mine! I feel like it's something Nana Komatsu would have, hehe. The bag is pretty girly and the pearl charm makes it super cute! And the fact that was handmade and no one else can have the same bag, is pretty cool.

This one made my mom cry. My aunt used a sweater that belonged to grandma and made small coin purses for the girls in the family (she made one for my cousin too). It was the sweetest, most meaningful gift. Is defo something I will always carry with me in my bag.♡

The other bag I received is this adorable cats, knitted, beige tote bag from Maple Moose. They said they thought it'd be perfect for my laptop and, it actually is! It's fits perfectly but, I think it could make a good bag in general since it's strong and can carry a lot in it. Plus, we all know I am a cat lover. 

And with that, I'll end this pressies haul. I've been really enjoying everything. And just the thought behind all these things makes everything extra special. 

I hope we can reunite again soo, it's always so much fun!

See you next time~!💋

My Christmas Pressies 2025 🎅

December just flew by, literally! But, I hope you all had a good, happy Christmas. Mine was quiet but fun! I had different small celebrations with my coworkers, friends and family. We ate delish food, had some drinks, played games and, of course, there were pressies. Now, like every year, it is time for me to share the pressies I received this year. Guess this will be our last post of the year too. So, let's do this!

I'm gonna start with a pressie I got for myself, you might have already seen him but, I got the BTVS Spike Funko Pop! I am obsessed with Spike, he's been my big crush since I was a teenager and, I couldn't resist when I saw him. 

I'm counting all the things I received this month as part of my pressies. My mom gave me these goodies for the house earlier in the month. A cute reindeer ornament, a Christmassy kitchen towel and a gingerbread man candle that smells delish!

This year, my boss gave me a Starbucks gift card I haven't spent yet. The Santa Claus cookie (that is already gone) was from one of my coworkers.

With my friends, we had this gift exchange in which we all bought a small something for everyone. We ended up with lots of different goodies including socks, yummies, sunscreen, an enamel pin, instant hot cocoa and even a calendar. It was a successful and fun exchange.

Apart from the exchange some of my friends gave me other cute gifts. A facemask, cherry socks and cherry earrings. 
I included a close up of the earrings so you can see them better. 

Have I mentioned my bestie is super talented? She made these pottery beauties I absolutely love! And you know, we gotta have a little Halloween something.

Closer look. I already hung the pumpkin picture and, I'm obsessed with how it looks.

Mom gave me this Korean doll as an early Christmas gift (it was more like a Yule gift). She's so cute and I love her outfit! I'm super tempted to get her more outfits and accessories to change her every now and then.

I wanted / needed a new bag and, I received it! Mom got it for me. The light is not great here but, it is a dark gray, medium bag. I love it!

Of course, the pressies came with some yummies! 

This year our dinner was held at my sister's house, when we arrived, we had a gift waiting in our places that included this 3 Tres Medallas wine bottle. I love rose wine so, I'm looking forward to opening this one.

Along with the wine, there were these winter booties. We all have matching ones now. They are super warm and comfy and I love the fact that they have a platform!

COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence

I also received some pretty rings.

I decided to put these two together cuz they kinda belong to the same group. Before Taichou went back to Canada, he left a present and made me promise I'd open it til X-mas. I was a good girl and waited. He gave me the Full Metal Panic! Collectors Edition 3. I cannot! I love FMP so, so much and it's really hard to find merch over here. I can't wait to read it. It'a beautiful, thick and heavy baby. And, my sister made the Spike bookmark, since I'm reading more now, it's the perfect bookmark to have on the books I'm currently reading.

This next part will be all about clothes, I wasn't planning to organize it like that but, it ended up that way, hehe.

Two pairs of jeans I really wanted/needed

And these pants that I'm sure will be fun to style cuz you can dress them up or down easily.

I also received some blouses too ♡

My babies were also spoiled and received some pressies. It makes me happy when they receive new things they can enjoy. They are currently obsessed with the toys.

As every year, I'm very thankful for all these gifts and the friends and family who gave them to me. I might share a little more about some of them in future posts. 

Like I mentioned at the beginning of the post, this will be the last post of 2025 so, thank you so much to those who took the time to read me this year. I wish you a great end of 2025 and a magical 2026.

See you next year!! ⭐
