Hey, last night, my sister and I made these candy things! It's those Japanese one (like the brand Kraci) where you get powered substances in the packet and then you add water and mix to create something magical. The packet that we opened was one that tastes like melted fruit bursts (after everything was mixed) I don't recommend buying this for the taste of it, I only recommend you to buy it once in your life and play with it. Because it is quite cool, mixing the powder and water.

The packet

Pour in the powder from green packet (labeled 1) in the circle tray

Pour in powder from the red packet into the same place you poured in the green packet

Pour powder from the orange packet (labeled 4) into the other tray, the one with the companies logo kinda thing

Fill water in the little tray and fill into both sides of the tray

Using the plastic spoon, mix the round tray. Mix it quite a lot so there are no more lumps

Using the plastic spoon, mix the powder and water. (maybe wipe off the pink mixture first...)

The finishing product. You get the spoon and scoop out some pink mixture, then dip in the red mixture.

Question of the week: What's your favourite Kraci product?

Hiya! Yvonne recently went to Japan (she's written about it -->here<--) She bought back loads of goodies. Mostly junk and shit that won't be used but who cares? Junk's still stuff. She bought a whole dining table full of things. I know, it's weird because I said dining table instead something else but it's only because we unpacked her stuff onto the dining table. One, because she wanted to take a photo of every single thing she bought and two, we couldn't unpack on the ground, otherwise Hazel will probably attack all the stuff.
These are a few of the things that she bought me (or things that we can share... lol)

Here's the whole heap of junk. And this is minus the clothes she bought

Hello Kitty glasses Why are they so popular now in Asian countries? They do look cute though, just not on me haha. You can't see the detail in this photo but on both sides of the glasses, there are three designs to look like whiskers. Oh, and the best part of these glasses is that there are no lens, not even fake lens.

Mini egg-like chocolate with Disney character wrapping. I'll be using the container thing as a pencil case probably. Not sure what else I could use it for haha

This cracker/biscuit (not sure) snack it pretty weird. Like, your first bite and it's real crunchy and then the centre of it is all soft. It reminds me of cereal like coco pops. but it's a giant coco pop and not as crunchy. PLUS, a huge bummer was because I thought that every packet/box of these will contain a key chain of the white dog (pictured on the side of the box) but instead I just got a stupid sticker. I think it's random, you either get a sticker or if you're really lucky, you'll get the key chain?

Few of the goodies for me. My favourite would have to be the Minnie (or mickey) mouse necklace because it's so cute. From left to right: Cream cat earphones, Bear with buttons key chain, Panda cooling gel, Random red key chain, Easter Wonderland 2012 Disney (contains chocolate inside), Silver and red glitter bear key chain, key chain (necklace's were too expensive, apparently) of Disney's mickey's head shape as a pancake or some type of dessert with whipped cream and strawberry on one of the ears, Winnie the Pooh chopsticks and finally, a pair of Hello Kitty chopsticks.

I love this so much! It's hand made so each individual one of these are different. Yvonne bought this from a zoo.

Question of the day: What's your favourite gift that you've gotten from someone when they went overseas?

Hey everyone, Yvonne and I opened the packet of candy donuts. They are so shit. Like honestly, it's not even cute to look at. These candy donuts are made and sold in Japan. They are made to look like donuts but I failed at it. I advise you to NEVER EVER buy these. No matter how cool you think they are, you will regret it. The candy is so disgusting. Well, it's not that bad but I didn't eat them. It only took me one bite to instantly spit it back out. The candy are kind of like half gum and half toffee. It's not actually gum, but the texture is like gum. Yvonne wanted to buy those Kraci lollies that are cooler, like the sushi one (where you make the caviar and it looks really good!) but she couldn't find them anywhere. I would have much rathered one of those ones than these because you don't even do much to it. Just dip and eat. uck.
Here's our progress:

The packet. The instructions of how to make them are pretty much there

The goodies inside the packet. Plastic tray (that was all squashed), candy (the circle things), white straw, plastic fork, chocolate sauce (in little blue packet) and jam (red packet)

Squeezing all the chocolate sauce out. Looks just a little bit like shit

This is when the straw and fork is useful. You get the straw to poke a hole in the middle of the candy to form a donut shape then use the fork to poke out the little round, extra bit of the candy.

The hole that Yvonne made. Just the slightest bit crooked and not in the actual middle.

Yvonne adding a coat of chocolate on. Mmm, looks good?

The two actual donuts I made

Question of the day: Would you eat these?

Hi Sim lovers. My mum recently brought me the Pets expansion pack. Even though all Sims maniacs would've gotten it when it first released but because my mum's cheap, she brought it for half price! (So did my biffle, lol) We both saved money! The original price for this expansion pack is $69.90 but since it was half price, it only cost $34.95! That's quite a lot of money, of course it's not like $100+ but still, save as much as you can in these bad economy days.

I really love playing with Pets included in the game because it makes the main story much more different, since your sims life will be based around animals. And there's new clothes for your sims. For those who have played The Sims 2 pets, you probably know how to play this but for those who haven't (I haven't) you'll still learn how to play and control everything easily. Another reason why I love this game is because there is quite a large variety of pets/animals. I didn't expect snakes, turles and lizards to be in the game even though you can't control them, it can still make the game more fun.

Sims 3 Pets

The pets my household has are a scottish fold cat, horse (not a horse expert so I don't remember the breed) and I also found a cockatoo in my backyard so I took it home and pretty much stole it from nature. I just hope that my cat doesn't attack the bird. I adopted a puppy from a neighbour and it is so cute! It's a mutt, female and has light and dark brown fur. I would love to have a dog or cat have babies I think it'd be cuter than a baby horse but it is rare to see a horse give birth/have babies. Unless of course, you have horses yourself and breed them. I wish that you could have more animals in this game though. I mean, I know it's tricky to design the animals and all that, but it'd be so fun if they made cows/bulls and you can ride them for the rodeo! Even though there are no rodeo theme's...

Question of the day: What Sims 3 expansion packs do you have? If none, then why?

Hey everyone, I sprained my finger! :( It was during P.E, while we were doing an activity for netball. The activity was us practising interfering the ball while it's being passed. When I was a person to throw and catch the ball, I had to buddy up with my teacher. She threw all the balls so hard. The ball was literally shooting right at me. There were people that would jump inbetween us to try to catch the ball (known as inteference). So my teacher threw the ball and a student jumped in to try catch it but then they failed at catching it but did knock the ball out of it's original path. By then, the ball was flying slightly to the side so I reached my hand out to try catch it. But it touched the tips of the fingers and carried on flying. That was how my finger got sprained. I actually didn't go to the nurse until the next morning because when it happened I just thought it was one of those times when your finger hurts for only 1 or 2 minutes (after you hurt it). I didn't want to make a big deal out of such a small injury. If I broke my finger then that would be completely different, I would probably faint as soon as I found out because I feel sick even thinking about me having a broken finger. ugh.

School nurse bandaged my fingers

My middle finger is bruised

Question of the day: What was the worse injury that has happened to you? And how did you do it?

Love,
Elaine
