What’s in your bag?

This is an attempt to get back into blogging once more. I have so many things I want to mention, but I’m not sure if I want to keep at it since the events were long past. I have a ton of pictures from the last charity event Lester and I attended with the San Diego Star Wars Society, but that was from a month ago. Should I still do a recap post for it? I also have pictures from my little trip with Mom to the Bay Area (in which I acquired the durian Hi-Chew). Hmm.

Anyway, I’m curious. What’s in your bag?

I ran across a Flickr pool a while back and started to follow it. It’s interesting what people oftentimes carry with them. Do you use a tote bag? Purse? Murse? Messenger bag? I’d like to know!

Pictured above is a bottle of Lipton raspberry white tea (which I love drinking), moisturizer for my face, my sushi makeup bag, sunglasses, my trusty Nintendo DS that’s been through thick and thin, a travel bottle of anti-bacterial hand gel from Bath & Body Works that comes in handy, iPod shuffle named Exia (since I leave my 30 GB at home), Burt’s Bee’s lemon butter cuticle cream (great for keeping your nails in tip-top shape; it smells heavenly, too!), some pens (the Transcend pen was from CES), a notepad featuring art from Jean-Michel Basquiat, my Cupco Poketo wallet, and a bag of li hing sour watermelon candies that my sister bought for me from Hawaii. I love li hing candies!

Not pictured in here are my cell phone and my Chapstick. Those I usually keep in my pockets, not my bag. I’m notorious for losing my cell phone and Chapstick a lot. My Chapstick often falls victim to the washer and dryer because I always leave it in my pockets ^^;

I want to know what’s in your bag! :3

Recent acquisitions pre & post Black Friday

So…how many of you braved the malls and large department stores and did some Black Friday shopping? I know some people actually headed out to the outlet stores prior to midnight to do their shopping and some stayed in line to be one of the first in line to get deals on whatever. This year, I actually stayed clear of buying any kinds of electronics for fear of getting trampled on. I’m small, you know :P I also figured I’d save my purchases for online (or at least for Cyber Monday, *cough*Ineedanewrouter*cough*). However, my parents and I did find ourselves going to Fashion Valley this morning at 5:30 AM. I was actually surprised at myself for getting up and getting ready in record time; I could never do that when it comes to going to school :x

This post will actually cover some recently (and suddenly) acquired merchandise prior to Black Friday when I took a trip up to the Bay Area last weekend and today after enduring Black Friday. I will first start with this mini Chara Fortune from Macross Frontier. Can you possibly guess who this is? :x
