Mysterious Ruby

Remember the cute little necklace Chiaki presented to Nodame in the Nodame Cantabile New Year's Special in Europe? I finally found it at Star Jewelry of Japan! Priced at ¥49,350,  equivalent to RM1856.69 using the currency exchange rate conversion calculator at coinmill.com, I think it's still affordable...I'm so into it!


In fact, besides this, all designs by Star Jewelry are just awesome! The necklaces, rings, earrings, everything...
Even the interior design of their shops are so elegant. I wish I can be there someday, browsing through their entire collections and pick up a few back to Malaysia. Let's make this a five-year goal, perhaps?

Mameshiba 豆しば

Stumbled upon this cute little fellow while I was on YouTube...and my heart melted~


Is it a soy bean? Or is it a dog? It’s not exactly either. It’s a very strange, but very cute creature that has the body of a bean and the face of a dog. It’s called Mameshiba. The Mameshiba family is made up of over 20 members-Green Peas, Black Bean, Peanut, Natto, Edamame, Red Bean, Sweet Beans, Coffee Beans, Cashew Nut, Jelly Beans, Chickpea, Sword Bean, Boiled Bean, Chili Bean, Tiger Bean, Soybean, Pistachio, Lentil, Fava Bean and Cocoa Bean. They have angelic faces and sweet voices, but the stories they tell will spoil any listener’s appetite...For instance, they might surprise you with a phrases such as this one: “Did you know? Breast milk tastes different at the beginning and at the end of a breast feeding session.”

Watch the full series of Mameshiba Video Shorts and check out the Mameshiba Characters right now! I'm kinda addicted to it and how I wish to own a Mameshiba Charms as well~
