BE:FIRST "WATCH ME" MINI LIVE & TALK in LA

Last Friday, the 18th of September, my sister, Gabby, and I were fortunate enough to win priority entry for the BE:FIRST "WATCH ME" MINI TALK & LIVE at hello82 LA! I've heard about them and seen them overlap with our EXILE TRIBE boys a couple of times on social media. So when we learned that there was a chance to see them for free, we went ahead and tried our luck! Thankfully, we were able to attend this fun event with priority passes, which gave us a better feel for the boys and their music.

I, Bee, had the pleasure of sitting with fashionista, Junnyan, for an interview for VKH-Press (now defunct). Yes, this is a repost of the original article into my own blog as I don't want this to be lost on internet forever.. so here it is! Moving forward, I plan to archive the rest of my past work here as well, and I will be including the following disclaimer on those posts:

FUKURO from JAPAN in ANIME EXPO 2024

FUKURO from JAPAN in Anime Expo 2024

After re-opening my blog, here's my first post, which turns out to be a live report of the visual rock band, FUKURO FROM JAPAN! Anime Expo 2024 just happened last weekend, and after quickly skimming through this year's list of talents, one of the very few music acts that actually came from Japan. Since I am writing on my own blog and not for a company, I have to warn you all that I will be more casual in my writing style. Anyway, read on to see how this band performed during AX2024!

UPDATE in 2024

2024-07-11T17:06:00.000-07:00

Me at Anime Expo 2024 last week!

Hello, Everyone! It's been a long while since I wrote on this blog, and somewhere from then, the Japanese Visual Kei news site I used to write for (Japanese fashion, music, and live events) has closed. I know there are only a few English sites featuring this niche, so I re-post (and will continue to re-post) my old articles here. I've also decided to write again! I've started as a blogger and will continue to do so. I find myself very interested in Japanese music, fashion, and events~ so that'll be what you'll see here, but I will write about everything that interests me, too.

Real Techniques Influenster Voxbox 🎁 by beekyoote.

So I received another amazing voxbox from Influenster for free to review and this time it's from Real Techniques! Woot woot! Real Techniques is known from their wonderful brush quality and the affordable yet amazing counterpart to the expensive Beauty Blender. I may have purchased the Miracle Complexion Sponge a few weeks before getting this voxbox, but I have never tried it out before! I even filmed my honest initial reaction to it! You can watch it here or continue reading for more info!

I know.. I know... Another haul? Sorry... If you saw the makeup that I saw, you'd feel the same way! Anyways, this is a way to show you that you don't need to go to Sephora or Ulta to spot amazing finds... Plus, everything is priced beautifully! If you want to watch me go through these thing quickly, watch my haul video! I'm going to list the original prices down below if I can find it online... no, not the one on the sticker because their initial original prices can be more than the ones on the sticker! So read on!

I know this a bit late, I hauled these babies from Daiso Japan back in February! But now, I can share with you what I picked up as promised in my past vlog! Daiso Japan is a popular Japanese outlet for many useful, cute and quirky items for only about a $1! I usually only get lashes or Pocky, but I decided to pick up a few things from their big collection of cosmetics!

FORT ORD DUNES STATE PARK

If you've seen my COR SURF Waterproof Backpack post, I'm pretty sure you'll have read it was my first time checking out Fort Ord Dunes State Park! Jimmy & I were running out of time to find a good place to shoot for my blog, so I looked up lists of best beaches or hike spots, and this appeared to be one of the closest ones. It is located in Marina, CA and have never thought this place existed. I'm sure glad the pressure was on... so we ended up visiting somewhere new! Go on and read more to see what went on in out quick trip!

PHILIPPINE VACATION 2015

2016-02-02T16:30:00.000-08:00

Finally, I got all the vlogs out for our trip the Philippines last year! It's a big deal for me because my family and I don't go home as much as we want. And it matters to me most, because after spending four years of university there, most my long time friends are there! This trip was really short and mostly last minute... so we didn't do as much as we wanted to do. Our off days contained practicing for our dance video & performance for our family party. If you want to see the breakdown of our trip, keep reading!
