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!! ⭐

I'm Spoiled! | Pressies from Canada |

A couple of weeks ago, I met my friend and former RP Taichou for the second time this year, he came over with his cousin and we were able to celebrate his birthday together. 

Since he's a dragon lover, I took him to this Dragon expo that, luckily was happening during his stay as a way to celebrate his b-day. The expo wasn't too big but, it was pretty cool and he loved it. Everything was dragon themed, even the gifts we gave him.

This guy here was the highlight of the expo, especially because of Hyorinmaru. (iykyk)

Their visit wasn't too long and we couldn't hang out as much as we wanted because of life and work but it was definitely fun. I hope we can repeat it again soon.

And well, as last time, he brought some pressies. Of course he didn't have to but, I am obssessed so, I wanted to share them around here cuz the guy knows how to keep his lieutenant happy, hehe. Let's do this!

I tried Tim Hortons thanks to him (we don't have it in my city) and loved it ever since so, he brought some vanilla capuccino, on of my favs. So good!

Continuing with the yummies, he gave me some seasonal pastires and cookies from Little Debbie as well as some Canadian cookies. You know how much I love pumpkin stuff and I'm so happy I can continue eating them. I already tried them all and, they are all delish but my favs have to be the Pumpkin Delights.

He also got me a box of Cheetos Mac 'N Cheese, I haven't made them yet but, I'm looking forward to trying them. I think it'll be fun!

So, in my country we got the Fanta Chucky's Punch but the can wasn't this cool, it didn't have Chucky on it and it was smaller, I still got it tho. But I was sooooo happy to receive this one which is way better. I haven't tried it yet, I'm sure the taste will be the same as the one I tried before but, this can is defo becoming a part of my collection.

Not for me, but still food related we have some Churu Bisque for my babies! I love it when my babies receive pressies too. Masha is a fan now.

He also got me a Beetlejuice blind box. I would've been happy with any figure really, cuz I love this movie way too much. I got Lydia wearing the red wedding dress. 

And, I saved the best for last. I mean, not the best best cuz I liked everything but, you know. Now I have a Buffy the Vampire Slayer stationery set. It is perfect! I think I'll get into it a little more in another post because I'm in love with it.

I just love how thoughtful and personal these presents were because, he really pays attention to details, even when he sends me bday pressies. It's the sweetest, this lieutenant is spoiled.

The pressies don't end here tho, I just wanted to kinda divide the gifts cuz his cousin also brought some things, honestly I wasn't expecting him to bring anything. Mainly because it had been the longest time since we last talked and, it was our first time meeting in person. Yet, he did and, then again, this girl is obsessed.

Meet Draco, my new baby boy. How cute is he? He's so round and soft, I can't! He is from the Snackles ZURU Halloween Series, honestly, it's my first time seeing them. I googled them and they are all adorable! The fact that we both are Gemini and share the same birthday made me SO happy. It's a little extra I didn't see coming. Of course he's not going to be a part of my Halloween decoration, he's staying all year round.

Bleach was the thing that brought us together years ago so, these ones are special. Shuhei is one of my main (many) crushes from the show, he's so hot. I'm super excited to read this book! It'll be my next read after I finish what I'm currently reading. And then we have the keychain that came in a blind bag. ♡ 

He bought 4 bags, one for each of us to open together. They both got Ichigo, my sister got Orihime and I got Rukia so, we exchanged them. Orihime is one of my fav female characters and she loves Rukia so, in a way, we were very lucky! They are all so cute tho.

I also received a Canada sweatshirt that I clearly haven't ironed, hehe.

And lastly, we have a cute maple leaf pin that is now with my pin mini collection on my dad's old denim jacket. ♡

And, that'll be the end of this big pressies haul that felt like an early Christmas. All these gifts were super unnecessary but they made this girl happy, hehe. Forever thankful with these loves, hope to see them again real soon.

I'll see you next time~!
