Tokyo Nostalgic Clubbing






Sneaking into Tokyo's oldies dance party called 'Showa Kayo Night'.











It was Wednesday night when a friend of mine who lives in Tokyo, Deby, texted us when are we doing this Thursday night. She found this event roaming around her Facebook page, a disco party playing 50's - 80's Japanese pop tunes (Showa era) for people at all age group, mainly for nostalgic purpose. I'm staying in Tokyo for a whole month vacation with zero plan (as how I always do it) and just play it by the ear every single day, so 'dancing all night with cool elderly' is an easy 'Yes!' for me. On the day, we dressed up according to the respective era and meet at Shibuya to jam to the oldies tunes. It was a magical time machine as we entered the full packed bar with ¥300 entry for us to dance all night, with Japanese grandmas, aunties and uncles karaoke-ing to all the songs they knew by heart. Here is our experience, including showing up at the local news on a drunk interview later after.

Skincare Routine for The (Lazy) Practical Minds

Is doing the bare minimum actually the secret key to a good skin? My skin has always been so low maintenance, yet well adjusted to my practical lifestyle. Any skincare and make-up I use, I make sure it would fit in my small travel pouch. I committed to keep my routine really short and simple, and have never applied more than 5 layers of different skincare at once. For my laziness, and also the practicality. Does that mean my skin  has never been a problem for me? At least not in my early 20’s life.  The Backstory I had my worst acne breakout during my puberty, when I was sixteen, I was trying out one facial treatment -  you know, the one where they poke your pores because they claim they know when your future acne is gonna appear, kind of your fortune teller but for pimples - intending to clear some blackheads I had. That one facial treatment turned into an entire face ‘purging’, triggered acne that never appeared before in my life to suddenly popped up, and tha...
