ok time to get shit done

mini haul post, ok? then later i'll talk about the fireworks we saw a few days ago.

the other day it was my 'birthday party' kind of, since my parents are now in europe.
they got me this sweet vaccum. i'm so happy, it's really what i wanted. a meaningful and practical gift!

the rest of these terrible photos are from a recent trip to Mitsuwa in Shaumberg. it takes an hour to drive there, but essentially it's a japanese market/food court/book store/liqour store, etc. general asian goods, and they play 2PM interviews on the tvs there.

i will enjoy some calpico strawberry also bought from mitsuwa before showing the haul.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i like to fill myself with strawberry.

the package says there are 4 cookies per serving...how can you eat only 4 cookies?

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I also picked up july 12 kera and ageha magazines.
I have a gripe with a current trend in them, i will explain in a different post.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

this is a facial pore cleanser made with egg shell and charcoal.
i bought it mostly because of the little man on it.

it's also not common to see a pore cleanser that's opaque and black like this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

this is hadasui skin and body lotion in a spray form. 

interesting. and convenient because you can use it for multiple purposes. 

i don't understand the photo on the bottom right. computer needs moisture??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

i like monsters. this keychain is cute.
it wasn't purchased at mitsuwa, but a dollar store here in my home town.
maybe i'll call her Tipo.

that's about it. thank you.
