Summer is coming + thoughts on time so far
Hello again! If you're reading this, I'm surprised you're still here and would like to come out of the screen and personally hug you for being here. Like seriously, thank you! I know I have been neglecting this blog again for some time. I already have so many blogs which I have started with so much enthusiasm and only to have it fade away a couple of months later. But I really want to make this one work. It has become a personal project of mine to not quit anything I love doing this year. So far, I like writing here, even though very few of you are reading it than the numbers I had on Tumblr. But my Tumblr now is so full of reblogs that the personal feeling I have here is lost.
As June begins, I'm glad most of the stress has decided to give me a break. And now I have to build up a timetable and a list of activities to keep me busy and focused. It is so easy to loose you way from your life goals during summer holidays.
June 2016 Update - New Obsessions
I am one of those kinds of people that find so many things to like and obsess over real quick. From years of experience, I have learned to manage my hobbies and likes and not let it become an unhealthy part of my life. It's all a matter of discipline really (says the girl getting ready for PLL even though she hates it at this point).

Preparing for University (Summer Edition)
(This is something I have been meaning to post last year, but didn't have the time to edit and then eventually gave up completely. I decided to post this now since I have a little more experience and more advice for the new undergraduates entering their first year. So this post is a collaboration between me and my old self! How cute. ^_^ )

2016 so far
Needed to post an update, so here I am! Hello, yes, I'm still alive.
How are you guys doing? Fine? Good for you. Not fine? Oh, I'm sorry. I hope you'll feel better.
Yep, now, don't ask me ''How are you?''. If you're reading this and you happen to know me, here is something to keep in mind. Never ask a person like me the question ''How are you?''.
'Cause frankly, I don't know the answer myself and I'll lie with the classic ''I'm fine'' so as not to sound like a drama queen.
I'm a person with lots insecurities and fears. And this year has been the probably worst year of my life. I have been mostly unhappy and lots of bad things have happened.

Amercan / British TV Shows I follow
The last time I talked about Korean TV shows and how awesome storylines they have!
And today I'm back to talk about some English TV shows I currently follow.
This time, I have ranked them from ''fantastic'' to ''okay'' shows.

Oh, and I can't be bothered to write a synopsis because most of these shows have a storyline that changes with the seasons. I do apologize but if you already follow any of these shows, you know
what I mean. If I get to the synopsis, I will probably add some comments and theories and how the plotline changes so much. That means we'll be here all day.

''Love Muffin and Chai Latte'' by Anya Wylde

My rating: ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ 10/10
Cover book rating: ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ 5/5
One book in one gif reaction:

I decided to dip my feet in the comedy genre when I found this book and read about how brilliant Anya Wylde is with her writing. Must I say, I was not disappointed! She didn't wait to showcase her magic and immediately had me laughing from the first chapter. The things the main character, Tabby, gets herself into are absolutely hilarious and absurd! She also has a quick sense of humor and is quite clever.
This is the first book I've read that is written by Anya Wylde and I couldn't put it down. It is a brillant comedy romance novel, with really great humor and less drama. Reading this book was like relaxing and listening to a friend talk about their good times.
''Love Muffin and Chai Latte'' is one of those books that has a unique charisma and a light aura that makes it such a relaxing read without much suspence. Or perhaps it just feels different to me because I'm not used to comedy-romance genre minus the mystery or supernatural stuff going on... **shrugs**.

''ALMOST DEAD: A Murder Mystery'' by James J. Murray

Rating: ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ 4/10
Book cover rating: ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ 1/5
One book in one gif:

This will be a very short and quick book review, because there really isn't much to discuss here. I am trying my best not to sound mean or disrespectful to the author throughout this review. I mean, it is a really good story, don't get me wrong.
Maybe I read this book in a rush or it's because I have been tired for the past couple of days. I did enjoy reading this a lot in the beginning, but towards the middle of the book it felt like the reader (me) was being shot with way too many details and scenes. The pace became slow and.. I don't know, the thrill I got at the start just wasn't there anymore. The ending was a little predictable and there were lots of cliches, but overall I really liked how the suspense was created in the beginning and the novelty and originality of the mystery (corpse waking up 24 hours later) definitely deserves a big thumbs up, which is what got me to read the book in the first place.
