Mother's Day

Today I woke up at 7am so I can play Sims 3 Pets for a few hours. Then drove to Sho's house to have lunch with his family. Had lunch at Kula restaurant. Ate sushi with coke. HAHA so American. Didn't have much of an appetite though which was weird because I love sushi.
After lunch, went to Mitsuwa to pick up a fruit tart that Sho ordered. It looked so delicious that I bought one for my family too. I honestly spent most of my day playing games with Sho at his house.
Came home around 9pm. Spent time with my mom before she went to bed. I asked her what she did today. She said she had a fun time shopping at Home Depot for gardening and lighting supplies. HAHA!

Sho's Hair

On the weekend, I dyed Sho's hair. I used Gatsby Bubble Dye Caramel Rose from Mitsuwa for $10.99. It's really easy dyeing his hair compared to mine. HAHA! I like this dye because as you apply the dye, you're supposed to scrunch the hair making it bubbly. *Do not rub in the lather cause it'll start to burn into the scalp.




Before

After

Yay! He was pretty happy with the result. Sho's hair was black before so it's nice change for his look.

Sakura Exhibition 2012

Yesterday, I went to the opening reception of Sakura Exhibition in LA with Kevin and Sho. We wanted to go early cause we didn't want to be in that part of LA at night. The gallery was smaller than we expected. The walls were covered with art from top to bottom. Over 200 artists participated in this event. This year they used Facebook to promote Japanese artists to the world. If you art interested in buying, you can purchase one $60 but they do offer a discount if you buy more than one. I already purchased a piece. I can pick it up after the closing ceremony May 26th.

Afterwards went back to our area and had dinner at Asa Ramen. Ordered Kotteri Ramen and shared gyoza and fried rice.

Avenger Tokidoki keychain

So in my previous post I talked about Tokidoki x Marvel collab. So far I've collected 13/20 characters. Tomorrow is the nation wide opening of Avengers!! My friends and I are all excited for it. Kevin bought the tickets for 10pm showing. Can't wait!!

I have some free time before my night class so I decided to make a mini Avengers pic.

Tokidoki x Marvel frenzies Keychains

Description
Marvel’s most popular characters have been re-worked by tokidoki's own Simone Legno to create a collectible assortment of 20 tokidoki x MARVEL Frenzies. All your favorite Marvel characters, from Spider-Man to Doctor Doom, Wolverine to the Mighty Thor, have been given mini tokidoki makeovers!



Past weekend, went to Downtown Disney with Kevin and Sho. They wanted to buy the whole Marvel x Tokidoki box set. Kevin would buy the boxes individually and end up getting duplicates. The box set comes with 30 boxes and there's 20 characters total. Sho and Kevin split 15 each. We had so much fun just opening the boxes. It being a blind box makes it exciting but getting 10 duplicates is no fun. Kevin completed his set while we have 13/20. Darn those duplicates.
