Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011! It's crazy how fast the time flies. I hope everyone had a safe and fun New Year's Eve. We had a lovely dinner with friends, and went to a temple for the countdown. It was crazy crowded but really fun. You know what else is fun? Fukubukuro. Even just saying the word is fun.
This Japanese tradition is why everyone was shopping today. Stores put a bunch of merchandise into a bag, and you pay a set price, not knowing what is inside. We both got bags from Forever 21. They are grouped by size and different price points. Someone got lucky. His 4000 yen bag had 6 decent items (minus the white jeans) and a 5000 yen giftcard! I was not so lucky. My 2100 yen bag had the world's ugliest pink jacket, 2 tank tops, cropped leggings, earrings, and a necklace I'll never wear. Oh well- it's a gamble. This is a New Year's tradition I can get used to!
Sounds like fun!
