6 Steps to Conquering a New Semester (Kpop Style)

Image
Since I've been back at school for a week and seeing as how Kpop's such a huge part of my life now (as you probably have noticed in my song section of recaps hehe), I thought I'd incorporate it into one of my posts in a fun way. *grins* This way I get to talk about Kpop without totally losing you non-kpoppers. ;)  Welcome to my Back to School: VIXX Edition  post!  For those of you who don't know, VIXX is my favorite Kpop (that is Korean pop music) group ever. My favorite member is the cocky one who raps and... At this point you're probably rolling your eyes because everybody *cough* parents *cough* has told you this SO MANY TIMES.  But I'm here to tell you... being organized actually helps. Like a lot. I am normally a very unorganized, scatter-brained person but at school I have tons of things going on. Things with scary deadlines. Things that I have to carefully set up around each other.  So, be organized. I promised...

Top Ten Books I've Recently Added To My TBR

Image
It's been a while since I did a Top Ten Tuesday buuuut I'm back! At least, for this Tuesday. :))  The Prom Goer's Interstellar Excursion  by Chris McCoy This sounds pretty ridiculous which is probably why I put it in my TBRs. I know. My reasons are so profound. Passenger by Alexandra Bracken This is a beautiful (unique) cover and I'm all for books about time-travel. Roommate Wanted by Nina Perez First of all, in my opinion, the most interesting stories are about ordinary people who would've never noticed each other accept that somehow they now exist in each other's lives aka live in the same house. Second of all... Yeah. I only had the one point. Never Always Sometimes by Adi Alsaid I like lists. I like not being cliche. A story about trashing lists and being cliche? Hmm, interesting. In all seriousness though, I've heard great things and I've been wanting to read it f...

5 Things I've Learned from My First Apartment

Image
I almost thought I wouldn't be able to post today because I was originally going to put an Apartment Tour video on here and a few comments on apartment life and let that be that-- however , I couldn't take my apartment video today like I hoped because it was cloudy and the lighting was super bad inside. But as I was finishing uploading my latest K-pop reaction (which you can watch here ), an idea popped into my head. So you WILL be getting a post today after all. :) 5 Things I've Learned from My First Apartment This is the number one biggest difference between dorm-living and apartment-living: there is SO much more stuff to pack (and unpack. which you probably know if you've read my complaining tweets). You also have to get a bed, desk, and dresser AND other furniture for yourself some of which your school's dorms probably provided for you before. Curtains are waaaaay to expensive. WHY SHOULD I PAY THIS MUCH FOR PIECES OF CLOTH TO COVER MY WINDOWS. The...

July Recap

Image
This month was kind of crazy because of all the school things and the big road trip, thus there weren't as many posts this month and I didn't read as many books. Many good things happened though! I got to see BTS in Chicago . I passed my CLEP exam. I got tanner. ;) And now I'm going to recap July with you. As always there are many songs that I fell in love with this month. It's music. It's gonna happen. This is such a funky, rockin' summer song. And, of course, Big Bang is as crazy and fun as usual. (*cough* T.O.P are you on drugs *cough*) Seventeen just debuted this year in May. THERE ARE SO MANY. I am awful at remembering names. How do I file away 13 names in my brain? (I actually have by now. I was sucked in so fast oh my gosh.) I love this song. Especially the rapping.  So, I don't know how pre-debut this is (a lot, looking at Hansol's face) but, guys, this is pre-debut . Yes, it's Seventeen again. I have no regr...
