Before I could even blink March and April have whizzed on by!

Girl's Day! Hina Matsuri ♡

Good evening everyone! 

It's March! Can you believe it? I love love LOVE March in Japan! The weather is getting warmer, the school year is coming to an end and the cherry blossoms start to bloom! The best part of cherry blossom season is everything becomes pink! So many goods and special edition food and drink come out. It is just so cute!♡❀

Missing: My Creativity!

I haven't been active on here lately, and trust me it hasn't been by choice. Of course, the end of the first semester is always a busy time but also I have been suffering from that horrible, well known condition...writer's block!~

What I Didn't Expect from Being In an Intercultural Relationship

Being in love is great. There is nothing like being in love! The butterflies, the kisses, the cuddles, going on adventures and making memories. It's amazing. If it wasn't, why would there be countless books and movies and songs devoted to it? There is not much better than the bringing together of two people.

Book Review: Confessions of a Texan in Tokyo

Confessions of a Texan in Tokyo   

     For those of you who are familiar with the "gaijin in Japan" blogging world, you may have already heard of Grace Buchele Mineta, the "Texan in Tokyo" and her adorable (and accurate) comics that cover the day to day life of a foreigner in Japan, intercultural relationships, culture shock, the adventures of being young and married, and everything in between. Along with her blog where Grace uploads her comics and posts about her life in Japan she also has a Youtube channel where she posts videos with her Japanese husband, Ryosuke, and has published three books! 

Why You Won't Hear the Term "AMWF" From Me Again...

So thanks to some awesome girls I was chatting with today, I came to a realization...

Using AMWF isn't right for me and it can actually be problematic. 

 

Now please bear with me as this embarrassing misstep and subsequent epiphany was all very sudden. It actually occurred within a span of four days! Let me walk you through it.

My Intercultural Relationship

Well I've been thinking...

Now that I've been posting for a few months it's time to get to know each other a little more, wouldn't you say? Well you guys already know I'm a Lush fan and Sailor Moon collector. If you've checked out the blurb under my photo you'll also know I'm really into plants, I watch anime, play UFO machines and am addicted to matcha tea. But what you might not know about me is I can't function without coffee (it's gone far past an addiction at this point...it's more like a physical necessity). I have read Harry Potter so many times it's impossible to count. I hate running but love swimming. Because of my mother and grandmother, I can speak some Estonian. Autumn is my favourite time of year...
