17th Birthday~

Hey cuties~
My birthday was almost 2 weeks ago (Feb. 22), but I still thought I'd share with you all what I did c: (I also went to New York last weekend so expect several posts about that~)

When I woke up I had a delicious cake~ It had chocolate and figs (sounds weird, but believe me, it was delicious). After opening presents (stuff from Lush, a shirt, cute underwear, and tights), I went out to the city to get sushi with my family ^_^ I decided on a Japanese place called Douzo, and it was incredible. If you're ever in the Boston area, go there. You won't regret it in the slightest~ I got their bento lunch and it was scrumptious <3 Tempura fried sushi is seriously the best thing ever.

After I finished the sushi, the family and I wandered around the neighborhood for a bit~ The sushi place was right in the shopping district, so we went to a bookstore that I like (and it's really a shame that there aren't more bookstores open anymore...). I tried to find a manga that I'd been wanting for a while but they didn't have it D: So in the evening I ordered it online c:

After the bookstore we went to an absolutely delicious hot chocolate place called L.A Burdick (definitely go there), and it was so tasty <3 I was really fully from the sushi though so I could barely finish it hehehe. We also visited a really huge local library which was absolutely gorgeous. The walls were stone and I loved the atmosphere of the place. I wish the library nearby were as pretty >u<

After returning home I watched Home Alone with my mom and sister (sister's choice of movie), took a bath with a lovely bath bomb from Lush (it smelled amazing- I think it was called Twilight), and then went to bed. It wasn't a particularily eventful day but I had lots of fun ^.^

I was supposed to go to New York the weekend of birthday, however my dad had a job interview the next  day so it wouldn't have worked out. I'm grateful though because I got to go the next weekend ^.^ I'll make a post about that later though~
In any case, birthday photos!
So sparkly~





Sorry I don't have a full outfit photo ;~; The dress I wore is from Chess Story though~
In the mail a few days later I got the book which I had ordered, as well as a nanoblock set! I've been wanting to try making something out of nanoblocks for a while, and I finally got the chance :3 The manga is called "Bride's Story" and the art is absolutely gorgeous. I'm really happy with both things <3
Isn't her outfit gorgeous? <3
It's a model of Kinkaku-ji, which is a Zen Buddhist temple built in Kyoto, Japan, in 1398
The blocks are so tiny ;u;
So, to conclude, it's nice finally being seventeen <3 Though it doesn't feel that much different from being sixteen hehe x3 Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to the year to come, and I'm hoping it'll be a good one.
Thanks for reading!

      Yeah it's unfortunate :/ There is a manga shop nearby but generally you can find things cheaper online c: The book was originally $17 but I think on amazon it was around $12 c:
