Konnichiwa!
So you remember my pen-pal Ayana, right? Well she totally surprised me and sent more Christmas presents :D And I mean a LOT. And its all extremely awesome stuff. Even the packing is freaking adorable. I feel really blessed to have her as a friend, and to live in an age of technology where international online correspondence is available. Here are pictures :)
the gorgeous packaging
I love seeing all the Japanese characters- its the little things that excite me<3
extremely soft 'A' bag (A is both my initial and hers)
strawberry lotion. I actually had put strawberry lotion on my Christmas list, so now I can cross it off :)
flowers/watermelon bellyband. I've never had one of these before!
Hi-chew candies! yum yum yum
again with the authentic Japanese characters
chopsticks with a holder!
fake eyelashes. So glad to receive these because I planned on using fake eyelashes for prom
unique envelope<3
little Japanese stickers. So kawaii ( ^-^)
very heartwarming, hand-written letter (Ayana's English is really impressive)
and here they are all together - yay!
I am so absolutely astonished at her generosity, and I have already found a use for every gift. This Christmas season has provided me with a lot of culture and love<3
Keep it kawaii folks!
