From Girlybubble: Sadly, the Hello Kitty Cafe erasers are not for eating. I’ve been scolded enough times in grade school to know this. As cute as these erasers are, they’re pretty tragic. Everytime you use them, their life withers away with every eraser shaving. I currently have mini-erasers of the same variety of cute — using them is the last thing I’d consider doing. They’re pretty much useless. More »

From Girlybubble: April 16 marks a special day for Sanrio’s Pompom Purin — it’s his birthday. How old he’s turning, no one knows. I can imagine less than Hello Kitty’s age, so really, no older than 40 years old. Golden retriever dogs in the Sanrio world, age well. More »

From Girlybubble: There’s a Hello Kitty for all seasons and holidays — Easter is no exception. I wonder what Hello Kitty has planned this year? I’m sure it can’t be sexier than what I’m doing. For me, Easter is pigging out on Filipino food with my huge Filipino family. Instead of Easter ham, we’re big on roast pig (lechon). Roast pig or not, we here at GirlyBubble wish you a Happy Easter. If Easter isn’t your thing, Happy Spring. Enjoy these Hello Kitty Easter images: More »

From Girlybubble: Not to steal Hello Kitty’s thunder, but Pankunchi is another Sanrio character worth knowing. Not because we previously mentioned Panda dogs earlier, but because let’s face it — pandas are freakin’ cuter. Even moreso when they happen to love carbs as much as we do. ‘Pan’ in Japanese means bread, making Pankunchi a Breadkunchi. Maybe kunchi is panda in Japanese? I’m such a terrible Asian for not knowing. More »

From Flauntme: Is it wrong for me to love Hello Kitty beauty accessories? I mean, seriously. I have two daughters who love Hello Kitty everything! Should someone my age be tempted to buy Hello Kitty anything? More »

From Girlybubble: Hello Kitty in 3D isn’t always plush doll or person-in-a-Hello-Kitty costume form. I know, I’m excited to tell you the latest 3D form I’ve discovered — claymation! On a recent trip to Youtube, I discovered the Hello Kitty Stump Village claymation videos. As per usual, Hello Kitty and friends are looking as cute as ever. And enticing. More »

From Girlybubble: It’s the first day of spring and I know this much because of Hello Kitty. You see, my blogger lifestyle prohibits me from venturing to the outside world to judge for myself. It’s true, I really am wasting the sunny Southern Californian sun. However, if I was outside, I probably would’ve missed this image of new, unreleased Hello Kitty animal key caps for the spring. Naturally, I am a sucker for Hello Kitty pretending to be another animal. I love Hello Kitty best when she’s having an identity crisis. More »

From Girlybubble: Hello Kitty is loved by many people around the world, and she serves as an inspiration to many. Tattoos are an ever-popular way to express oneself externally. However, when Hello Kitty and tattoos come together, sometimes, it is not a very pretty sight. More »

From Girlybubble: I accepted my invite to the Hello Kitty Party for Nintendo DS by buckling down and getting myself my own copy to play. Hello Kitty is to cake as Jinra is to fat kid. After playing the game in its entirety, I’ve concluded that while it’s unbelievably cute and all kinds of adorbz, I’m probably too old to be partying with Hello Kitty. More »

From Girlybubble: Not only is there a Hello Kitty Party Magazine, there now exists a Hello Kitty Party game for Nintendo DS. I’ve recently myself become a Nintendo DS owner and it is with great confidence that I say that Nintendo DS, by itself, is already a party. I can’t imagine what playing Hello Kitty Party on DS would be like. More »

From Girlybubble: Here’s an event I’d have to be sitting for/not operating heavy machinery during: The Hello Kitty “Three Apples” exhibition opening Oct. 23 at Royal/T in LA. As an exhibition held in honor of of Hello Kitty’s 35th anniversary, my inability to effectively handle cute-overload could be problematic. That’s 35 years of Hello Kitty cute-ness! I can barely handle myself being so cute, and I’m only 24. More »

The most famous Asian pussy in the world is turning 35 this year. I know Hello Kitty has been around for a while but never knew she was the same age as me. This makes her a Tiger according to the Chinese zodiac. Those born in the year of a Tiger are supposed to be “difficult to resist, for they are magnetic characters and their natural air of authority confers a certain prestige on them“. Is this why bitch is so popular and well liked by many even though she always treats people with such rudeness? Look, when was the last time she said hello back to you when you mentioned her name? N-E-V-E-R! More »

From Girlybubble: I’ve been kinda on this search for the next laptop of mine. My old Dell is a few years old now and it’s only fitting that I get something super kawaii to go with my new job of blogging for Girlybubble. Sanrio, slave driver of the Hello Kitty trademark, does not disappoint. A simple Google search shows at least six variations of a Hello Kitty laptop! Each seem to be around $1500 hundred and only sold in limited numbers. This feels like an impulse buy so I guess I’ll wait till Girlybubble becomes more popular… More photos after the jump.More »

I think I mentioned somewhere before that celebrity dating is always a fun sight. They always lead to celebrity breakups which is even more fun to see! The internet has been buzzing a bit about Jaebeom of 2PM and Sun Ye of the Wonder Girls having possibly dated. This photo was from Jaebeom’s Cyworld page. Does that make it real? No way to know for sure. But I’m thinking if I was a celeb, I would throw random stuff like that online all the time to make sure people keep blogging about me ^^

There are two things I love almost more than life itself: Beer and Hello Kitty. A recent joint venture between German beer company Beck’s and Sanrio has combined both my loves to make Hello Kitty Beer — or rather, the Hello Kitty edition of Beck’s beer. Given my undying love for oat soda, I am by no means at risk of a shortage of reasons to drink. Hello Kitty beer however, will prevent any sort of shortage, should that day tragically arrive. More »

Inspired by the infamous Danny Choo’s “A Week in Tokyo”, I wanted to share with you a day in New York. Honestly, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be but it is a fun tourist spot. I spent most of this day just walking through visiting various Asian hot spots namely the Kinokuniya Bookstore and Ktown. Eek! More »
