Fall

After busy weeks for 12SS exhibitions, as well as business trip to China, I finally had a 3-day off weekend with my family =)
So we visited Karuizawa -  a small mountain resort area just 2 hour drive from Tokyo.
It was just the best.. to be with my husband and our dogs and to take a break from the metropolitan. Fresh air, open space, great scenery and yummy food! Anything could be better than this? :P

Minamigaoka Ranch

We visited Nasu-Kougen a few days ago and it was a lot of fun!

It was the third time for me to stay at a traditional Japanese ryokan (hotel) though this one was a little new and it has only 7 rooms. Cheesecake at the famous Cheese Garden, then Dinner, Onsen(hot spring) and SPA at the hotel on the first day =)




Then the second day.. traditional style of breakfast! Wish I could eat these many course everyday!!



Before heading back to Tokyo, we visited Minamigaoka Ranch.

The break is over and I'm back to my everyday routine.. busy working and finding a job at the same time :P

Well I have to post more pics of what I got in the holiday season!

Happy 2011!

How was everyone's countdown for 2011?

Last year I was in Shanghai with my husband and my families, and this time we were in Tokyo with his families =)

nothing too exciting or dramatic but it was so nice taking a break with families!



I always tried to write about the past year, give myself some review.. but maybe not too much this time.
There have been so many changes in 2010: graduation, marriage and moving to another country...  life is getting better and I'm closer to my dream now =)

so excited for this year because I already have a list of plans!

haha I'm probably the kind of person who don't look back at all.. lol


oh and sorry for my getting-even-broken English.. :P



so here are some glitters for you!!!

(yay! finally got a chance to have photos of me taken by a camera, not a cellphone.)





May all your wishes come true and everyone has the best 2011 =)





and here's our new puppy "Pola"!
she's a husky mix (I assume..) and is about 3 months. (since we got her from a shelter so nobody know how old she actually is!)

P.S: I'm going to Nasu tomorrow!! Mountains, hot springs and some snow! :P
