This store sells all Japanese beauty products along with other kawaii items from Japan :) Felt like I was in heaven lol the prices were pretty low compared to other places that sells Japanese products!








random stuff I saw at marukai! Essential Hair make treatment and Dolly Wink limited edition lash set with case~





Now over at Puente Hills Mall at Round 1
Sandra and Rina always go here to play the Japanese claw aka UFO catcher machine so I was super happy to go here cause I LOVE UFO catchers!! lol Round 1 is Japanese arcade and sports amusement center, opened its first USA chain store right here in this mall ^__^



ahhh claw machine heaven with all Rilakkuma and Hello kitty dolls lol :D 







Rina the Claw machine professional working her magic!! XD


She got 2 Rilakkuma and Korilakkuma for me and Sandra!! wow @__@ they are really hard to get too!!


thank you Rina!!♥

then I ran into one of my reader and fellow blogger Rurouninugirl♥ she was super tall, kawaii and sweet~ was pleasure meeting you hun!! I stole your picture hehe :D


 I also met up with Rachel of Soyfashion.com :) It was really nice seeing you in person and chatting with you hun!! Hope you come down to MN~ will show you around hun!


Also as I mentioned in the last post that I met Kelly and Tiffany of Himestyle at Mitsuwa where she works so we exchanged numbers and met up after she got off work and had some Guppy's and after took some purikura at Cue Studio I had really nice time chatting and hanging out with you and Tiffany♥  :D






the heat made me super tired so I was taking a nap and Sandra snap this pic of her kitty Lightning sleeping with me he so sweet~ ;3

Lastly me and Rina met up with Adriyah and Angelique for some lunch went to imperial beauty supplies for some discounted nail polishes and topped of our date at a Vietnamese cafe aka "boobie cafe" which I was really amused and weirdly awkwarded out by lol


Iyah and Angelique was super fun and hilarious to hangout with~ Thank you for the great time and thank you Iyah for the nail polishes babe~♥  gosh Im so short lol


the group shots with the ladies at the boobie cafe drinking me some yummy avocado shake~ :D

lastly on my last day finishing off by visiting Long Beach Shoreline Marina, it was such a beautiful day~ 






then Rina and her man Bryan took me to Hilltop park in Long beach during the sunset it was beautiful but really chilly lol




 My suitcase was super full and only could fit Korilakkuma in my case so I had to carry on Rilakkuma on my way home lol people were looking at me weird carrying this huge bear with haha XD


Ahh bye bye LA and OC you were good to me~
