Th...I used to be pretty ambivalent towards spiders. Then my family moved to Texas and the spiders were no longer innocent daddy longlegs. Instead they were brown recluses and black widows and we had to check our shoes before we put them on in the winter. Nooo thank you.<br />I almost felt bad because everywhere I've read that these banana spiders are very docile and not dangerous to humans... but when they're poisonous and build webs big enough to trap birds in I think I'd rather not risk it.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804234325450434702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714980244556913165.post-83875714858566646552016-10-15T19:56:38.905+10:002016-10-15T19:56:38.905+10:00I'm trying to incorporate Korean into my every...I'm trying to incorporate Korean into my everyday phrases so I can get better at speaking it and Michael can learn the language by proxy. We joke that we want to be able to go back to the States and talk to each other without silly eavesdroppers butting in. <br /><br />I considered buying from Carol's most recent opening, but sternly told myself no. I'm trying not to spend all of my money on wax and buy things that I can't get back in the States, lol!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804234325450434702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714980244556913165.post-20274064841908277622016-10-12T14:01:29.630+10:002016-10-12T14:01:29.630+10:00Oh holy cats, that spider. I've got spider is...Oh holy cats, that spider. I've got spider issues of my own here in Canada, as in an entire balcony that has been sort of overtaken. I don't know if mine are poisonous (and I'm not about to find out!) and they're not as pretty as yours (they're just brown and frightening) but there are a ton of them and they're very large and kind of aggressive.

But I do dream of going back one day. Such a beautiful culture. <br /><br />Yes! Splurge on yourself while you are there. Sheet masks rock. And Milky Piggy Carbonated mask? The names kill me. Tony Moly is great. We have a teeny bit of their stuff at Sephora but that is about it. I do order my Innisfree Korean skincare on Amazon. The Pokemon stuff is just too cute for its own good. I have it stashed in my closet. So far the girls have not snooped as far as I know. I am a pretty good hider. <br /><br />FPS is so good. My favorite strawberry in vendor wax hands down. I order it everytime I get the chance. I have missed out the past few times though. I need to stock back up.

The downside is I don't know what the words mean. It's progress, though, so I'll take it. :D At the very least, I now know the Hangul equivalent of places like "Itaewon" or "Dongdaemun" which makes it a lot easier to read a map.<br />I'm absolutely in love with this face mask. It's the Elizavecca Milky Piggy Carbonated Face Mask... and it totally leaves my skin super soft and silky and happy after I use it. I need to go back during a sale and stock up. :P <br />Now that you mention it, I remember all the movie themed releases now. I think I've just become enamored with all the cute branding and packaging here. Michael has had to scold me a few times at Tony Moly. C'mon, Pokémon beauty products, why can't I buy everything?!<br />It's frustrating how the tracking works here. I've had many, many packages never update tracking so it looks like a seller never took my package to the post office. I get stuck waiting to see if I need to contact the seller or if it's just USPS being... well, USPS. <br />I'm proud(or should I be ashamed?) to say that all of the candy made it safe and sound and I am very much out of sweets now. LOL! I have the decorations spread through the house and more than a few of the tarts have been melted. I forgot how much I missed Carol's FPS!<br />Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804234325450434702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714980244556913165.post-10105603040816828922016-10-09T05:40:22.905+10:002016-10-09T05:40:22.905+10:00Wow.

I think that is pretty cool. Carbonated mask huh? Sounds like a fizzy adventure. The Shrek cosmetics were funny to see. We do have our fair share of Disney and movie themed releases over here. Especially for Mac and drug store brands. <br /><br />Glad your box arrived. Sometimes it makes me nervous since you can't track overseas shipments. I hope there were a few things you liked in there. And that that chocolate wasn't all melted to heck. TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.com
