Surprise!

TO MEE!! :D
Well...it was yesterday. But I didn't have enough time after the family gathering to share how my day went. Sorry!
The 'surprise' is...my lunar & gregorian birthdays were the SAME this year!!
How often does that happen? Or does no one else pay attention to that but me? hehe >__>

I don't think I've ever posted a photo of my face before. Mostly because I feel very self-conscious about myself and I'm not very photogenic...Partially because I'm still slightly uncomfortable exposing myself to the blogging world (only 2 people in real life know I have a blog)
Primer: Ultima II Under-It-All Makeup Perfector SPF25; Highlighter: Beauty Credit Lovely Q10 Pearl Shine Make Up Base; Foundation: mark natural skin foundation - powder buff; Blush: MAC MSF Stereo Rose
I've been wearing this look for a few weeks now. I tend to go for quick, light, and natural makeup on most days. Very boring...I know! =X


What bestie and I ate on our lunch date.
Omurice + Tonkatsu Combo & Ddeokbokki
YUMM!

Paris Baguette's Blueberry Chiffon Cake
For the past 4 or 5 years, my brother and I ALWAYS got Baskin Robbins Oreo Ice Cream Cake. To the point where even though oreo ice cream is one of my favorite flavors, I am sick of it...After discovering Paris Baguette on 32nd Street in K-Town, I couldn't help but want to try their cakes! They have many flavors and I had the hardest time choosing which one. The first time I went into the store, they didn't have this cake available. After maybe half an hour I went to the shop again and this beauty appeared.

I had two cakes...
I'm not greedy--just picky xD The other one was bought by my mom because she prefers Chinese bakery fruit cakes (which I dislike) & she said there was going to be a lot of people.
Both ended up being devoured so there was no problem :]
To be honest, I'm not a big fan of blueberries. Definitely not whole blueberries at that.

It actually didn't taste bad at all. The blueberries that were in the cake layers were soft enough that I didn't mind them being in there. It also wasn't too sweet (for me at least. My mom complained about though, but she is uber sugar sensitive...).
I'd definitely want to try their other cakes in the future!

A lovely purple card bestie gave me. I love how she never fails to give me a birthday card with her personal message. People don't do that often/if at all nowadays...a nice thought that is being lost along with snail mail =\

I laughed a little when I opened her card to find this note. She mentioned writing down the names of my present, but I was not expecting this xD


I knew what it was before I even opened my present! Lush products have a scent that is hard to forget. I can't wait to use these!
Could anyone share how to use bath melts and the foot scrub?

The other birthday present I received from a childhood 'friend'/classmate's mom. (Sounds strange but yes...lol)
It is SOO cute! My brother loves it more than I do :P
Does anyone know if it has a name? The tag says it's from HK (I think).

Instax photos! Thank you bestie for taking these & for using your expensive film on me!
I hope she doesn't mind me posting these!
