Got side-tracked when doing my gift-shopping for this week's office Christmas party and ended up with gifts for myself:



















Sakura, my favorite flower! Now I can smell like one, haha.
The customer service at this Body Shop outlet was very friendly, with the salesgirls being pleasantly chatty and joking with customers. I could feel the festive cheer in the shop!

After freeing myself from the vices of beauty shop, I fell straight into those of the bookshop. I just love the air of discount in my favorite bookstore, Kinokuniya. My special order 君に届けnovels had arrive from Tokyo and I can't wait to start reading them. And, I happen to pick up the last NLP guidebook by Joseph O'Connor. Lucky!

On another note, I'm so glad to be back in Japanese class after a month of absence.
相変わらず、先生は面白い人で、次々冗談を言いつづけた。
たとえば、Lさんと会話の練習時、こうなったの：

（先生はLさんに今日車がどこにおいていたと聞いている）
先生：車は？
L：駐車場で。
先生：。。。遊んでいる？

なんか車が駐車場で遊んでいるのイメージを想像したら、バカだなっと思って、我慢できなくて笑っちゃいました。
やっぱり先生の授業は最高です。
