How to deal with Chinese parents in law 1 - The first impression

Hi everyone, long time no see!
I've been pretty busy these days because my parents-in-law are currently in Germany. We've been traveling around a lot and I think I'm gonna blog about that later, too.

But now there is something else I would like to write about:

Dealing with Chinese parents-in-law!

This blog is mostly about my personal life, and since I have a Chinese husband, it might be interesting or even helpful for others to read about my experiences.

As I said, my parents-in-law are currently visiting. I get along with them quite well now, but that wasn't always the case.

When I first met my mother in law, I was 18 I think. I had no idea how to behave. For the first meeting I suggest you to wear normal, pretty clothes, although this is not too important. You can just dress the way you feel most comfortable. The clothes I was wearing were a little childish, so it made me feel kinda embarrassed when I met my mother in law. So, wear something that makes you confident! Nothing slutty tho.

There isn't much you can do wrong i guess. Smile, say how happy you are to meet them. If you are visiting them in China, show that you are very happy to be there and to finally meet them. If they are coming to visit you, tell them you are glad they are visiting you, that you want to show them around. If you're picking them up from the airport, maybe insist on carrying the mother in law's luggage because they have a long journey behind them and they are probably tired!
Little presents are always good! You can give them something that is typical for your country/hometown, like chocolate or wine or a little souvenir.

Be the kindest version of yourself - you want the parents in law to like you, right? Don't be afraid of communication, don't be shy. The more active and open-minded you are, the more likely you will get along!

I think this is already the most important advice for meeting the Chinese parents in law for the very first time. I will think about other , more difficult situations to handle and blog about them, but I'd also like to hear if you have questions or things that you want me to explain. I also think these pieces of advice don't only apply for Chinese parents in law, but for Asian in laws in general! So let me know what you'd like to know!

My parents in law will be here in only one week! So excited!

It's currently very hot in Germany. I don't feel like doing anything because the heat is killing me. ε=(￣｡￣;)

Yesterday we got up early and drove our roommate Yi to Berlin airport because she'll be in China for one month. At the airport we took a rest at Starbucks, which was my first time being there! I had the Cococnut chocolate cream frappuccino:

The cake was Yi's by the way haha.

I think the price was 4,30 Euro but it was really yummy and I think 500ml! So it's rather expensive, but you get quiete a lot for that price, too!

After Yi got on her plane, we went to an Asia supermarket before driving back home, because they have things that we can't buy in our town., for example different kinds of 饺子 (dumplings). We bought 3 bags of them, 2 of them were with spinach, they are one of my favourites! (●⌒∇⌒●) And we ate them as soon as we arrived home haha. I also bought taro mochi for my best friend because she loves taro bubble tea and I thought she would be happy if I buy them for her. ♪ 

These things were also very cute:

Hello Kitty marshmallows! Love candy with cute packaging!

Mini mochi! I've never seen them before, they are like reaaaaally tiny. I wonder if they really have a filling? They were available in different flavours, like lychee, mango and blueberry. Next time I shall try them! (○ﾟε＾○)

So that's how my day was! And now I'm getting ready to go out with my friends. 

See you~~（*＾ワ＾*）

Hello everyone! ^^

I'm very happy today because...

I passed all my exams!!!

It was hard for me, but now it's over. Finally I don't have to study anymore!

I'm meeting my best friend today and we'll go to city, drinking bubble tea and enjoying the summer weather. <3

And today I made some gifs of my 2 guinea pigs. ^_^ It's super fun to make gifs of them! Maybe I should use gifs more often in my blog?

Well, enjoy the cuteness and bye bye. <33

On Friday my friends and me watched the football game Germany vs. Greek in a bar, it was really fun!

This is how I looked that day:

And this is my best friend and me (in terrible lighting kk):

It was such a great and exciting game!! And we were so happy that Germany won! ^^

And here is finally a photo of our new car:

I like the color veeeery much! <3

Ok, this is it for today, because I need to study! >_<

Anger and love

I think I've never hated someone like this in my whole life so far.I'm shivering and my chest is almost exploding from my heartbeat...

How can someone be so cruel, trying to mess up other people's friendship because they can't face their own mistakes? She doesn't even see what she's done wrong. Now she's spamming my best friend with messages telling her I'm backstabbing, lying and a bad friend. But this wasn't even about me, it was about her. But not one time she mentioned that she really made mistakes, not once did she apologize (not that this would make a difference to me now), thinking she is the victim.

I can't say how happy I am that my best friend is by my side. She truly is one of the best things that ever happened in my life. Without her I wouldn't even know Xin. She has always been there for me, even in times when we were angry about each other.
And each hard time we went through together, let us become a little closer. And now I think our friendship has reached a point where we don't have to be afraid of telling each other everything, no, we can trust each other blindly. It doesn't matter when I move to another city this year - she always will be my best friend! Nothing will ever be between us again!
I am very thankful for that.

And I will do my best to be a better friend, too.

P.S: My oral exam wasn't today, it'll be next Tuesday! Phew!

2 photos of me and personal stuff

Today we picked up our new car and on Friday we can finally drive it kk. So excited!

Cannot take photos tho because it has been raining all day. :/

Today I had to study because tomorrow is supposed to be my first oral exam. They officially start next week but mine should be tomorrow. Problem: They said "Just look on our website, the exact date will be there!" but I looked and it doesn't say anything about my exam!

I will go to school tomorrow and ask when it is, but I actually hope it will be next week haha. We'll see. >_<

Yesterday I already blogged about someone who is seriously annoying me at the moment and today I'm even angrier. Turns out this person talked behind the backs of my my friend. I already supposed this would happen, but I'm still very angry. Especially after saying "I would NEVER talk shit about my friends!"

I lol'ed.

Anyway~ Here are two new photos of me if you haven't seen them already. :)

The second photo looks veeeeery edited because of the crazy filter, haha but I like the effect! :D

I try to look more ulzzang-ish at the moment, because it's more natural.

I don't know how ulzzang a white girl can look, but I try my best. >_<

And even if it's not exactly ulzzang-looking I like this look very much for myself! ^^

Well... I'm gonna call my best friend and continue studying, see you! <3

Exams, friendshiT and new car

I almost finished my exams, I only have 2 oral exams left now. And I can't wait for them to be over, because I'm really not a learning-person. :(

The past free days I spent with friends, going out in the evening, having fun.
It's really great to do something with a few good friends, spending a chilled evening at a bar without any drama...

Unfortunately sometimes people join us, who almost scream for drama.
Recently I heard about a "friend" gossipping about my husband. And for me, gossipping about my husband is the worst thing you can do to me. This friend has done so many mistakes, without even realizing they were wrong. And I'm not a kind of person who runs to them and says "What you talk sh*t about my husband how dare you!", no, I will just ignore people like these. But if someone still is too dumb to realize WHY I'm ignoring them, it makes me so angry but at the same time this is perfect proof that they are not good friends.

But well, something else.
My parents-in-law are coming to Germany next month on 13th! Very excited! They are staying for almost one month and we are going to travel around a lot! ^^ My honey and I were thinking that might be a good time to buy a new car, and we are having our eyes on a light blue Volkswagen Passat right now, it's reaaaaally nice and I'm hoping we're going to buy it!!

Another thing that makes me happy at the moment is the fact that I bought a Bigbang band T-Shirt on eBay and the latest album "Still alive"! <3
The short is actually the Tour shirt 2012 (Alive Tour) because I wanted to have an original band shirt and this is quite new and the one with the nicest design imo! Can't wait for both things to arrive!^^

One day in Berlin ♥

Hello！

On Friday my husband, three Chinese friends and I went to Berlin. We visited a street full of brand outlet stores, like Adidas, Bench, Nike, Mango and many many more！ There you can get original brand clothes for much less money than usual.
I bought a black Adidas jacket that I can wear when it's not too cold, but rainy. Xin bought two Lacoste Polo shirts because you could buy two for 99Euro！Usually one already costs 79Euro！！

We were looking around there for a couple hours. After that we went for dinner in central Berlin. The restaurant is called “Ming Dynasty”. They offer original Chinese dishes and their food is really yummy！

After finishing our dinner we headed to a KTV bar called “King Karaoke”. But it was already late and I was super tired... I only drank a Pina Colada and called my best friend while sitting in a lounge outside our room.

But it has been a nice day！ I love to visit other cities from time to time！♥

Barbie King Size Grey Circle Lenses + Directions Carnation Pink

Hello and happy mother's day! ♡

Today I want to write about my favourite pair of circle lenses - Barbie King Size grey!

But first of all I wanna show you my new hair color. ♪(ﾟ▽^*)ﾉ

This was my hair before:

I used Directions - Carnation Pink and mixed with a hair mask, so it wouldn't turn out to strong.

I wanted a light pink hair color and tried Directions Pastel Pink, but it didn't work at all... you could barely see a difference and the color disappeared after washing one time. 

So now I tried Carnation Pink because it's darker.

This is the mixture!

And this is the result:

A wonderful shade of pink! Love it! (○ﾟε^○)

Of course it won't last that long, but I'm happy it doesn't disappear completely after washing!

And now to the circle lenses:

Barbie King Size Grey

I bought them because they are very popular lenses, even Ageha models like to use them.

They have a diameter of 14.5mm, so you wouldn't think they are that huge but the black ring makes your eyes really big and dolly! (☆▽☆) They look more like 15mm lenses in my opinion!

Here is a photo with indoor lighting:

By the way, the lashes I'm wearing are Dolly Wink No. 11.

And here is how the lenses look in daylight:

I think they are very suitable for light eyes and blend with the natural eye color really well!

They look great in- and outdoor!

And they are very very comfortable! I can wear them all day without getting dry eyes!

Here are two more photos with the lenses (and my new hair color (ﾟ∇^*) ):

See you later!

"The Hunger Games" book and other purchases

Yesterday my best friend and a friend of her spontaneously visited me at home, because they were bored haha! It was fun! Isabell also gave me a hand with my bandana, because even after watching tons of tutorials I couldn't get it right. :/ But I think it looked good the way she did it:

Today is the last school day of the week and now I have 4 days without school! *_* I'm sooo happy today! The weather is also really nice and warm, finally can go out without jacket... AND my sister is coming for a visit tomorrow! I haven't seen her for months and can't wait to see her! <3

Today after school the weather was sooooo wonderful, so I went to the city to do a little "shopping". <3

I bought a new book! "The Hunger games"! <3 The story sounds so exciting that I needed to read this, and it is very very exciting indeed! I don't want to stop reading... >_< There are two more books of Hunger Games and I will definately buy them later! <3

Didn't buy these new dolly wink lashes today, but they came in the mail this week. Love them because they look so cute and natural! I don't like super long lashes anymore. :/

This nail polish is for whiter nails and french look. It's really good! ^^

Also needed a new perfume and I didn't want to spend so much money for it this month, so I bought a cheaper one from Christina Aguilera. But it smells very feminine and sexy! Love it so much, plus the bottle is  very pretty! ;)

Last but not least... a Tangle Teezer!

It's like a brush, but more expensive because it is supposed to free your hair from tangles without pain. I tried it and it's actually good! Also very practical because you can carry it in your handbag.

Angry right now!

I'm really angry today, because some guys in my class are really annoying and mean. I don't care anymore if they talk shit about me, but recently they started to make jokes about my Chinese husband, and they don't stop.

It hurts so much when they make their nasty jokes, because Xin is the last person who deserves it! And most Chinese people I met are really nice and would never say things like that. And why, WHY are you saying these dumb things about the man I love? You say it's fun, but to me it's not. I have to deal with this too often! Why are people so intolerant and respectless?

By the way, real men would never hurt girls, no matter if they like them or not. I hate "men" like you, you are nothing but disgusting. My husband is taller than you, more handsome than you, earns more money than you, is smarter than you, and he is open-minded. I should feel pity for you, because you are so bitter and will spend your life without seeing foreign cultures and meeting different people, because you are too closed-minded to accept and respect others.


I am happily married and traveled to the other side of the world. So what did you reach in life so far?

Can't wait to move to another town where people are more tolerant. It's really difficult where I live. Foreigners in China are treated so nice, and here? I never liked white men to be my boyfriend, so what? Why is it so unbelievable that my husband is Chinese? To me, there is no one more handsome and better than him. Is that so hard to understand?

I don't hate German guys, I just mean I never wanted to date one! Plus I'm really angry right now. Fortunately I'll go to the doctor tomorrow and will stay home for the rest of this week!

Review: SKIN FOOD Facial Water Vita-C Cream

Today I finally got the April issue of Popteen and the SKIN FOOD Facial Water Vita-C Cream!

I wanted to try a face cream that isn't thick and heavy, because it feels too uncomfortable in summer time. And after reading some reviews, I chose this one! SKIN FOOD is a popular Korean brand and many Koreans seem to have flawless skin, so their skin care must be awesome, right? ;)

The cream is white and has a light, fruity smell (but not really raspberry as you might think when you see the label in the cream).

The texture is really light and creamy. It feels refreshing and the skin absorbs the cream fastly without feeling sticky or something! The skin feels soft and moisturized after using the cream.

I like the cream very much and recommend it especially for spring and summer!

Btw, yesterday my husband, me, and some friends went to the amusement park because I got coupons at school for it!

It was soooo funny! I love amusement parks! Here is a photo of my friend Yi and me:

I will go to take a rest now, I feel kinda tired of school at the moment. (；-＿-；)

Thank you for reading and have a nice day!
