About Me Tag



Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Or I guess I should really say, Happy Black Friday? I have to say, Thanksgiving is my all time favorite holiday. It combines my two favorite things - eating and shopping. You get all of the good food of Christmas, without the hassle of gift buying! Did you guys go Black Friday shopping? I did and picked up a couple of things, which I hope to share in the next couple of days.

I wanted to do something a little different and thought I'd do a tag. The About Me tag is perfect because I don't have an "about me" page yet and you can get to know a little about me. Here goes nothing!


  1. Do you have a middle name? - Yes! It's Yuka. A fairly common Japanese name. You might be familiar with Yuka Sato, a famous Japanese figure skater. 
  2. What is your favourite subject in school? Hmm, I guess I will say English. In college, my favorite subjects were probably Italian and Russian literature - both which have nothing to do with my major (Economics)
  3. What is your favourite drink? Water is my default drink. When I have soda, I really like Coke Zero and the occasional Mountain Dew. I don't drink a lot of alcohol (due to Asian glow), but when I do, I like champagne, mojitos and Pimm's Cups (I only know of one place in LA that has Pimm's and it is so freakin good!)
  4. What is your favourite song at the moment? This is super embarrassing, but maybe Give Your Heart a Break by Demi Lovato. I don't know why, but I have to sing it whenever it comes on.
  5. What would you name your kids? I like old timey names and crazy names. For a boy, I'm thinking Jack or Tycho and for a girl, Jagger or Poppy.
  6. Do you participate in any sports? Not really. I've tried a bunch of sports from Tae Kwon Do to soccer and swimming, but I'm not particularly athletic. I do enjoy skiing and tennis and I've recently taken up golf. I guess I'm more of a "resort" sport person.
  7. Favourite book? Anna Karenina. Love the drama and the Russian aristocracy. I want to see the new movie! 
  8. Favourite colour? I'm always drawn to pink. In junior high, I used to wear so much pink that my friends call me the Pink Ranger (as in Power Rangers). I'm not that bad anymore.
  9. Favourite animal? I guess it would be a dog. I love love love dogs and have one of my own and a family dog. 
  10. Favourite perfume? I don't really wear perfume. I recently received (and finished) a sample of Astor Place by Bond No.9 which was amazing, but also super pricey.
  11. Favourite holiday? Thanksgiving!
  12. Have you graduated High School? Um yes and it was a million years ago. 
  13. Have you ever been out of the country? If so, how many times? I don't know how many times, but I've been to Mexico, Canada, Bahamas, France, Italy, Netherlands, UK, Japan, Hong Kong, Philippines and New Zealand. I might have missed a few, but yeah, I really like to travel!
  14. Do you speak any other languages? I speak Japanese fairly well, not fluently, but conversationally fluent. I also speak decent Italian and studied a bit of French. I can also curse in several other languages.
  15. How many siblings do you have? One younger brother
  16. What is your favourite store? For what? Target has everything and I can never leave without buying unnecessary things. For clothing, probably Anthropologie.
  17. Favourite restaurant? I don't really know, I eat at a lot of different places. I do love In n Out burger. Oh and Souplantation lol.
  18. Do you like school? I liked it alright. I enjoy learning, but not so much tests and homework.
  19. Favourite YouTuber? Essie Button and Vivianna Does Makeup
  20. Favourite movie? I really like Chicago. And I can watch the National Treasure movies over and over again. Those movies are everything I wanted the Da Vinci Code to be.
  21. Favourite TV show? The Amazing Race, Big Bang Theory, New Girl, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Top Chef. I used to like Glee a lot too (as in, enough to go to their concert), but I've lost interest recently.
  22. PC or Mac? Mac. It's not like I'm an Apple fangirl, but after having both, I really feel that Macs are better quality.
  23. What kind of phone do you have? iPhone. I'm not that attached to it though - I would definitely consider a droid. 
  24. How tall are you? I am quite possibly the tallest Japanese girl you will ever meet at a whopping 5'8"
