Headphones, yogurt, and bubble tea

-
Do you ever have that moment where you buy something cool online only to find it in a store nearby?  ( -__-) ....
That happened recently but I'm very happy to say that I saved some money anyway simply by purchasing it online.

Online shopping  >  Regular shopping

The headphones in question are these white Sony headphones and I bought it for about $14.

Aren't they cute?

Overall, I'm happy with this purchase although I don't like the fact that the headphones flatten my hair.  I'm not sure how I'll get around that issue though.  Another awesome fact about these headphones is that they don't give me a headache!  Usually when I wear headbands, headphones, or anything else that clings to my head, I end up with a headache after just a few hours of wearing them.  Not with these babies!  But the downfall of the wideness of the headphones is that it makes the top of my head look flat unless I style my hair to compensate.

You won't get the sound quality of Bose or Beats headphones but these work well if you don't care for all the fancier stuff and just want something that looks cute. 

I found out today that these headphones also work well as earmuffs.  I walked through 30 degree weather with toasty warm ears for the first time in my life.  (" ^ . ^ ")

Change of topic, I've had a lot of yogurt for the past couple weeks.  Mochi balls and yogurt is soooo addicting!

 I don't care if it's snowing outside, I still want my yogies! ( > v < )
 The waffle cone was pretty good!

I wonder if the average person knows what mochi balls are or where they originated (Mochi is from Japan if you don't know)...  just because they're so common in yogurt shops now. 

Besides yogurt, I also ventured downtown and got some bubble tea/boba!


I had the red bean flavor and it tasted exactly like red beans but it was a bit too sweet for me.  Mom got the usual: Green tea.  The green tea is always good and it was actually a nice balance with my red bean flavor since the green tea boba is on the bland side.

It was a good day out.  I still think it sucks that all the good Asian cafe's and restaurants are downtown and we have to drive far to get there.

Sadly, I've been neglecting my game consoles.  I guess I've been busy with work and one of my classes.  AND the internet is my only downfall when it comes to time management.  Does anyone else have those moments where you get so absorbed with something on the internet such as:

- [ Insert topic ] Wiki
- Internet Memes
- Youtube surfing
- Google images
- Idol obsessing
- Wikipedia surfing
- Falling into the Tumblr black hole of gifs

Yeah, this is where you'll find me if I ever get sucked into mindless internet surfing.  And then after all that, I have no time for video games *sniff*.  

I still have to finish KHDDD, KH 358/2 Days and FFXIII-2.  I'm happy to say that I finished TWEWY a while ago although me being the noob that I am, set the majority of the boss fights to easy setting..

Anyway, I have a policy where I won't buy any new video games until I finish the ones I already bought and play the hell out of them first.  So sadly, I'll have to wait a bit longer to buy some shiny new PS3 games.

Here's the doggie pic of the day:

The first time I saw this guy sleeping with his tongue sticking out. lmao

That's about it for now.  I still  haven't gotten my huge Sasa order in the mail yet even though it's been a week.  *Grrrr...* 
Patience is a virtue!!!!!

Sorry guys, not the most interesting blog post but I really wanted to post these pics I edited with Line Camera.  xD

Oh man, I hate when I find online stuff at a store. I also am extremely weak on time management, especially around the interwebs. When it comes to headphones however, I need something that delivers. I usually go for Skull Candy. And as far as video games, well, I have a ps3 with like.... 5 to 6 games? I dunno. I don't usually have money for new games. I wish I did.

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
