Work - Recharge - Repeat

It was an overwhelming week.   Partida, holiday pa on Monday.  We hit the ground running on the first day of the week due to an unexpected arrival of our shipment.  My brain is over-thinking.  Where do I park those vehicles?  How is this going to affect our cashflow?  Are the documents complete for release?  Did I just get scammed by a supplier?  

As much as we try to prepare for surprises, there are still some things that just can't be controlled or just wont be controlled.   I've exhausted all my energy for the week in one work day alone.  Stormy afternoons seem to reflect what's going on in my head.

However, not all surprises are stressful.  Some bring joy...like finding the dress you've been looking for, finding something you need on sale, collecting payment from a business transaction, finding easy solutions to problems, unexpected roadtrips, bringing a trunkful of produce from a client visit, making a sale without too much effort, making new friends or new business partnerships over casual conversations.

It was one heck of a rollercoaster week. But, we ended it on a high note.  It was productive week, exhausting too.  Now, it is time to start that relaxing weekend.

Luxury Bags in Japan

Since almost everyone I know visited Japan this summer, I would like re-live my visit this year through this post.  This time, I will focus on luxury bags. We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...

Great Finds for the New Year

I'm always excited to try out new products.  I've tried these new products and found them to be very satisfactory.  I hope you get to try these out too. 1. Soap and Glory's Clarity - I was about to become Rudolf, the reindeer, before I found this.  It stopped my zit from becoming a full-blown center-of-attraction.  It has a very refreshing smell that is very much needed after a sweating it out the whole day.  Available at Sephora stores. 2.  Mocha Rose by Rosebud Perfume Co -  If you like the Rosebud Salve balms that come in small tin pods, you will love this product.  It comes in an easy-open tube for convenience and effortless application.  The application tip has a velvety texture unlike most balms in a tube.  More importantly, the balm is so effective, it took out the dryness on my lips in a couple of applications.  Also available at Sephora stores.  ...

Gratitude Calendar 11/5

  I have always been afraid of the dark.  But growing up and becoming a parent, I have learned to overcome that (along with other fears), so that my children will not grow up fearing trivial things.
