The Happy Little Yellow Box

My son love this book so much that we have two copies. Kidding aside, he accidentally sat on the large box when he lost balance that he can’t enjoy the book anymore. Every time we turn the page to the large box, he just points to the taped portion. Hence, I bought him a new one. Luckily, it was available in Fully Booked Fort branch for 440 Php. Cheaper alternative than shipping from Amazon which was one of my recourses.

This book of pop-up is amazing, it is interactive. I particularly like the large and small page as well because the page would have a 3D box with a door, inside it is a small box. It’s fun for me. Another favorite is the high and low, where if you slightly turn the page, the helicopter would go high and low. Near and far, Off and On are cute as well. Discover for yourself! This book is a good investment, both educational and fun.

Divisoria Haul

Finally, after a long while… I was able to go to Divisoria. At first I thought it won’t push through again because of the rain but luckily it stopped raining. The goal? Buy Pajama shorts for husband, check out accessories, buy books for Edward, buy notebooks and Jelly Shoes for me.

First stop, 999 mall. This place is huge! From Recto all the way to 168. There are a lot of stalls, what I notice is the products here are not easily seen in other stores. Unlike typical Divisoria products where you can see stuffs in almost every stores. Here, some of the products are quite unique. I have a weakness for cute stuffs, so in the first 30 minutes of the stroll, I already purchased these…

In the 3rd floor, near the small food court, there’s a wholesale stores. Wherein you need to put your things in a locker. They would give you a key and lock. Minimum of 3 items for the wholesale price and minimum of 200 pesos per purchase. This place is a bit cramp but there are lots of good products, ranging from school supplies and toys. Here are some of my haul. The storybooks cost 14 Php, minimum of 1 dozen. Rest of my purchase is already in bulk. The play money only costs 40 Php. The Winnie the Pooh Thinking Spot is the first half the series. I purchased the second half before. The problem is the number 7 book is missing. First half is 1-6 and the other half is 8-12. So, I have to find the missing book.

While strolling, I saw a dragon coin bank, I thought it was the same as the one I saw in Daiso Korea blog, but it wasn’t. Nevertheless, I purchased it and my son seems to like it.

After failing on my mission, we went to 168… I was able to buy my Christmas shirt. I can’t wait for the party. I just need to buy Edward and Husband’s outfit next time.

The accessories update… The bracelets range from 100 Php to 500 Php. I saw a floral resin bracelets but it was super expensive. 400 Php. So, I’ll try to find it in Aliexpress again. The only thing I found in Divisoria is this bracelet. And it cost a hundred.

One thing I regret not buying is the baby Donald Duck earring, it was super cute and only 50 Php. But since, I don’t wear earrings lately… i guess it’s okay. I’m happy I didn’t find my Aliexpress purchase there at a cheaper price or else I’ll be pissed.

Even if my goals were not met, I had fun strolling in Divi again. And with food included , I spend less than 2K… Not bad at all. I’m super happy.

Archie Betty or Veronica

So, there’s a new game for Apple, Archie Betty or Veronica. It’s somehow similar to The Sims as the characters have the ability to build a relationship. The drawback, you really can’t customize the city, you just unravel the characters one at a time. And the houses go with them. At times, you get to choose who to help Betty or Veronica as they seek help from Archie to help the other characters. By doing so, you choose which character to activate first. But don’t worry, you’ll be able to buy the other character you didn’t choose first.

What I like about this game is that it has the ability to shape the personality of the characters by sending them to do task. And I like the comic strip that goes with them. Ever since a child, I like reading Archie comics. At the start, the game play is a bit messy but you’ll get the hang of it and it becomes enjoyable. They have Kisses as premium money where you can purchase premium characters, I can’t wait to get Hotdog but it’s still a long way… 130 kisses, I have 19.

Here are some of the game screenshots.

Converse One Star

I have decided to buy new shoes after my old shoes died on me. Every time I walk, I can feel sand texture in the sole. So one quiet Sunday morning, Husband claimed we can go to SM San Lazaro. And we did, after browsing for some, I fell in love with this shoes. And the price is not so expensive considering this is Converse. In fact, I have chosen this over the Hello Kitty one because it’s cheaper and it’s a bit embarrassing for me to wear the Hello Kitty shoes despite it being cute.

After breaking it in for the whole afternoon, it’s pretty comfy. In fact, I was a bit surprised, I didn’t expect it to be so as the size is one size smaller than my normal. Largest size is 8 and since I super duper loved the shoes, and it seems okay after trying. Tada! Another purchase.

The con? It’s hard to wear the shoes especially if you are in a hurry. Haha I’m sorry I am used to slip on shoes… No no, not sandals. Shoes…

Nevertheless, I loved it.

Alibaba Express

I have no hope, just because I wasn’t able to go to 168, i’ve finalized my online shopping shopping cart in Alibaba Express. A cart full of accessories. So, what is Alibaba Express? First, have you heard about Alibaba? The manufacturer of low cost goods from China. This is mainly for bulk orders. The express version is for retailers, they still have minimum orders mind you… But, it’s smaller compared to the actual site. It would depend on the seller actually. For my purchase, it’s 15 USD.

I did a lot of adding and removing till I get my final list. Since, it’s my first time, I wanna see how the shipping goes. It’s being shipping via China Post but from what I have read, it’s not door to door, so it might be a bit of a hassle to pick it up from the post office itself. I also took advantage of their limited discount, I selected Shanghai Gown Industry as the seller because majority of the goods are on sale. The rest of the stores, I’ll try after if my experience is good,

What I like about the website is after you have checked out, you have the ability to message the seller about our goods, like for me, I was able to specify the color that I like. If the seller would comply, it’s a different story but at least I can let them know.

After all the shopping, here’s my loot. Total of 14 variants but some I got different colors… A total of 20 accessories. For less than 20 USD. It’s pretty cheap. So far, I am happy with the price I paid because I feel it’s a bargain. When the actual products comes, I’ll see if I’m still happy. Haha.

August 28 Update:
Just when I thought I won’t receive it anymore after reading all the bad comments in Aliexpress. The notice came in today. I’ll pick it up soon as I can tom or Friday.

Korea Preps

Right after booking the flight for Korea during Piso Fare promo in Cebu Pacific, I started my research… Where to stay, what to do, what to eat, what to buy.

I am certain that I am over the Kpop fandom… I have tons of JKS stuffs. What scares me now are the cute stuffs, and with a big Daiso… Hmm. I think I might just go over my budget.

So far, I am keen on buying a costume for Edward, a few Uniqlo stuffs for Kalvin. Etude House stuffs, notebooks, socks, accessories, and snacks.

Things to do, probably, Trick Eye Museum, Palaces, Shopping, Theme Cafe, still thinking if I want to go to Theme Parks.

In my research, these stuffs made me super excited… See below… cuteness overload! Yabai! With washi tapes, notebook, floral stuffs… I’m in trouble…

Kitty Kawaii

This is the other game I was referring to. It’s the same gameplay with the same level of cuteness. It’s easier to earn the Kawaii Tickets as certain tasks grants it. What I like about this game is it has a toy capsule like mini game, where you can purchase limited edition decoration for Kawaii Ticket or coins. The problem? I have the same luck in toy capsule. I have a 9 out of 11 chance and I got a duplicate. sigh! Just my luck…

I hope that this game would have an expansion capability. The screen is the only space to place all the decorations, I have tons in storage as I don’t have space to display them anymore. Such a pity, nevertheless, I enjoy this game. Especially completing the Hello Kitty Flower Carpet. I’m still missing a piece.

Oh, by the way, the trophy? I worked hard for it as I discovered the game midway of the event. Luckily, I completed the 9 limited quest.

Behold… My Kawaii World…

July 11, 2013 update… I was super excited with the update, more cuteness… And the login stamp is a good way to make people play the game everyday. The cuteness is a bit costly, it is actually tempting me to buy Kawaii Tickets… But no… I won’t. So here’s a glimpse of the updates.

July 19 update, I stand corrected. The expansion is via the airship. Behold… My candyland.

Hello Kitty World

This is my new addiction, I like playing the game as it has limited edition items and the graphics are really cute. Comparing it with Kitty Kawaii, the advantages are you can expand your coverage as you level up and there are much more establishments and decorations in the game. The mini games are also entertaining. I wish I can get Magic Apples easily so that I buy the premium items. Good thing, the mini games grant some of the premium items as prize and you can play more than once if you are willing to spend 5k.

Here’s a snapshot of my Hello Kitty World, it’s a work in progress. The neighbor’s world really look nice… I’ll eventually reach it if I don’t get tired of the game. So far, 11 days and counting.

After a few days, here’s the update in my game. I was able to purchase the boat. Thanks to the Magic Apples I’ve picked up when I clicked Hello Kitty.

July 19 updates – the summer collection is out so I made a few addition to my town. Seems like it’s still a mess, will rearrange items when I get inspired.

Update: July 26
After the 2.0 update, it seems winning in the Bingo is harder. However, I am happy with the potential decoration from Bingo.
