a month in a nutshell ♡ 2016.12

The last weeks have passed like a blur and after realizing that I haven't done anything for New Year, let alone a year or at least December in a nutshell, the two first days of the new year are already over. 

For the sake of completeness, I'm here to send in the last (horribly belated) month in a nutshell for 2016 today, which only consists of a handful of highlights that I captured last month.

   

八月 ♡ a month in a nutshell

It's weird how fast time flies by when you are busy... it's already time for the next nutshell ♪

I spent most of August in Korea which results in this resume being full with small impressions from my trip. I still haven't make up my mind about how I want to do my updates about the five weeks I spent on the other side of the world yet, so I think it's a small treat my readers are well worth, after I let you wait for so long, when I showed no sign of life on my blog whatsoever.

お土産 ♡ what I bought in Japan

Assuming from my own - pretty nosy - nature, I thought it would be fun to share what I spent all the money on, during my trip. Since I stayed a month in total, I'm sure a certain amount of cash was used to feed and carry myself around. There are only two or three days I recall, when I didn't board a train during my 4 weeks stay.

However, I got the chance to buy a lot of stuff - though I couldn't help my thrifty nature and didn't spend nearly as much as I feared I would - and especially the 100￥ shops, namely Daiso were to my liking. I still don't understand why we can't have something like that where I live.

Literally everything there was more pleasing to the eye than what I've seen for easily twice as much in my home country.

The quality might not be the best and I have to admit that some of the stationery I bought are decrepit by now (after one year of constant use), but other things from the same store still work completely fine.

2014 catch ♡ august - december

As promised, I won't let you down on the second part of this year's catch.
There are still enough things I want to show you.
I did however not include any Christmas presents or the things I bought in Japan in these updates, since they'll get seperate updates next year.

A U G U S T 

the only thing I got in August. I love to buy t-shirts as a memory after concerts... but sadly LedApple was the last concert where I was able to buy a souvenir like that for me.

a month in a nutshell ♡ 十一月

It's the countdown these days, 2015 is coming closer and closer and I am still missing two months since I started this nutshell madness. I actually enjoy it a lot and I think I will continue it in 2015. It just looks so cute and I grew addicted to cute photo-edit apps on my phone anyway.

Here are some small peeks from November.
And surprise; this time there are 8 shots because I wanted to post some food, haha

2014 catch ♡ april - july

It's time to get some of the things done, that I whined about when I said there were posts that needed to be done before 2015 sneaks in behind our backs.
I noticed that I did way too few {gets} posts this year. The first was published really early, in February - you can read about it here.

And as I learned that many of my readers seem to like those, it's about time I do another one, and spam you with some of the goodness I got to call my own during the first half of the year.

Nothing new - I'm a huge BABY; 

so of course there was a point where I got myself some goodies. 

This point was back in April and it was kind of a birthday present for myself; 

if you want to say it like that.

a month in a nutshell ♡ 九月

My midterms are over for this year and I did my presentation, too.
Bad thing is.... I got sick and feel quite unwell right now... The fever isn't that bad anymore but still I need to stay in bed for the most of the day... just crawled out to be a bit productive at least.

The last month in a nutshell post isn't even that long ago and yeah... maybe it's a bit boring to have two of them in a row but I can't stay here long enough to prepare the next Japan update because my brain will strike and punish me with head ache.
So let's hurry up and get some impressions of this year's September.
