Haik-Who???

NO. Haiku. A type of poetry from the Japanese culture. Combining content and language in a meaningful and compact form: 17 syllables in a matter of 3 lines, while painting a mental image for the reader.

Takahatchi is always ready for a challenge… making the impossible, possible… the ordinary, extraordinary… and the dull, ever so dainty.
Online shopping is too bland and humdrum. With Viva Swag, online shopping is stimulating and suspenseful… similar to what is found inside my head.

And now, please take a moment to read my exclusive poetry, which I have dedicated to Viva Swag.

Oh Cordless Trimmer.
Precision Blades Like Fine Teeth.
Grow Facial Hair, Grow.


Nourishing Foot Cream.
Thick, Rich, and Very Dreamy.
Thank You Gilden Tree.


And last but not least.

Beauty Is Power.
The Feng and Shui Will Agree.
Love, Takahatchi.

Excuse your hairy-ness!

My darling and patient fans! I returned from my Zen Retreat (where that "au natural" hairy armpitted Saige happened to be recuperating as well), where I spent my days trying on different facial masks and writing haiku's. And this past week, I have been swamped with work! My pasty assistant and I have been going to the beach almost every day, trying out new sun products that have been introduced to you on Viva Swag!

From Ventura, Zuma, and Malibu, all the way to Newport, Laguna, and San Diego. And not once did I get burned. My assistant however, got burned once... and it wasn't the sun's fault.

It might have been my fault (just a little), for only giving her a one hour notice to prep for my sunscreen research. But it isn't my fault that her body hair is out of control. If only she was blessed in that department, like yours truly.

So I became her personal esthetician and tried MOOM's Organic Hair Removal Kit on her wonderful body parts... and can I say, that it did WONDERS! With ingredients consisting of only sugar, water, chamomile, lavender, and lemon juice.

Simply marvelous, not to mention miraculous! (Unlike that Saige girl).

And with miraculous in mind, Dermalogica's Daylight Defense Waterblock Solar Spray, and Coola's Organic Moisturizing Suncare were among our favorites sunblocks as we bummed it on the beach.

Our research came to end, while the flaunting of our hair-free sun kissed tan bodies began.

Full Moon Procession

Greetings fans, friends, foes. What a day it has been. If you took my advice and purchased CARGO’s Better Than Waterproof Mascara, your face wouldn’t be a smeared mess. After all, you did watch M.J.’s live memorial coverage. Didn’t you? I did. And let me tell you, watching his children bid their Father farewell, made me realize how precious life is, especially for those whose lives are being monitored and judged at all times.

I would like to leave you with a quote by the King of Pop himself: “If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.”

Love conquers all. And so does a mid-week retreat. That is why I’ll be packing my Zen Solo Retreat Basket and heading to wherever my assistant sends me.

Did I mention it’s a full moon tonight?
