Hi I’m Bambie, currently living a simple yet FABulous and happy life in the fast paced city of Tokyo, Japan. I love taking photos of the things I fancy :) I love preparing foods for my lil dolly Anzu. I’ve foregone on making (lameful) resolutions in lieu of simple choosing keywords to live by —that is “be delighted” I want to focus on what about my life delights me. And I want to remember them (thanks to technology for making it possible) Photos © Bambie Mandani unless otherwise noted.

I don’t usually stay longer in youtube but this JAMICHTV is really addicting. Grabe, I’m loving this couple, their authencity et al, nakaka-inspire and nakakakilig. I actually first watched them at KrisTV, I didnt know na phenomenal na pala sila sa YOUTUBE.</p> <p>Basta, ang galing lang nila. They’re so young, free spritited and talented. I won’t be surprised if someday makita ko sila nagpeperform dito sa Japan local tv programs. Mahilig pa naman mag-invite ng mga sensational talents from all over the wordl ang mga producers ng Japanese shows dito. I really hope to see them performing on one of the variety shows here. If only I have the means, I’d love to sponsor and bring them to FUJITV lol.</p> <p>Anyway, watch and enjoy watching. Or visit their Youtube Channel for more (JamichTV)</p> <p>love, B</p>http://blissfulqueen.me/post/16432913610http://blissfulqueen.me/post/16432913610Wed, 25 Jan 2012 08:59:49 +0900blogyoutubejamichyoutube sensationalby chancestrangers again<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyalatEUQG1qgfyn9o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>I love waking up in the morning when it snowed during the night.
