Sammy's Christmas Party

Last night was my surf shop's annual Christmas Party in Ebisu! 

Friends and family of all ages came down to celebrate at a really nice little club/lounge bar called Vibe.

The best part were the Dj's that where there! They played variety of music ranging from old school hip hop to house. My legs are so sore from all the dancing I did. lol But all in all it was a great night:) 

昨日は恵比寿でSammy'sのクリスマスパーティーだた！

皆もりあがでておもしろいかたです。

また来年たのしみで。　

これやてみたい！（笑）

I want to try this with my own hands! Two thumbs up for the person who thought of this:) Very creative and original.

ジュリーありがとう！☆

So the side braid that i've been trying attempt to do had been a fail until my friend Julie figured out how to do it when we went to Subway. It's pretty complicating and we sat there for a long time after we ate as she tried perfecting her braiding skills. 

このヘアスタイルは友達が矢てもらた。かわいいでしょ！？　気にちゃた♡ 

　　　

かっちゃった！！

So I finally found some crazy false eyelashes that i've been looking for some time now. 

My friend Devin took me to shu uemura in Omotesando and saw some awesome looking lashes. They had bizarre ones that had fur or crystals on them. I chose the mini khaki false eyelashes which have strips of green in them! 

They were a little pricy but totally worth it. Can't wait to use them this weekend!

Black n White

There's something about black and white photography that makes it so classic and elegant. 

Without all the other distractions such as color you focus more on the subject. 

The shot below is of me that was taken in black and white which I then enhanced with effects. 

 

 

This picture was taken in color that I changed to black and white on my computer.

Kinda Late...

I should of blogged about this weeks ago but better late then never ;) 

For Thanksgiving I was invited over to my friend's house in Fussa. 

Friends and family of about thirty gathered together to have a large feast of every kind of Thanksgiving food you could imagine. This Thanksgiving was very special to me because it was my first real one in Japan. Last year my roommate Kaori made mashed potatoes for the both of us. We wanted to cook a whole dinner but finding the material for it in Japan is very hard to find and expensive. This year i'm very thankful for my friends here in Japan. They are the only ones keeping me sane. LOL

What's in the bag...

I noticed that in a lot of Japanese magazines they show what models have in their bags. At first, I thought this was a little strange but realized that it was interesting to see what kind of things girls carry in their bags everyday. So here's what I have in my bag. I try not to put anything unnecessary in it because it just becomes way too much of a hassle to take stuff out and it gets heavy. I strictly try keep only my wallet, chap stick, pressing powder, foundation, sunglasses, and some gum. I also try to make it a ritual once 

a week to clean out my bag because you'd be surprise how much stuff will accumulate.
