Life of a Random

It has been an EON since I wrote up anything on this blog, so that should show you just how excited I am about a certain book called Love From A to Z . I'm the third stop on the blog tour/countdown courtesy of our very own Street Team, which means there are only FIVE GODBLESSED DAYS until it comes out! Graphic designed by the lovely Ara @Open Pages Like all my fellow posters, I have to thank @gildedwolves and @airyreads for putting this awesome street team together. It's been a really cool way to get back into doing bookish things and support a project I really love at the same time.  On my stop, I'm going to put together a playlist for Love From A to Z . I brainstormed so many ways of going about this, but I think I'm settling with taking the book title kind of quite literally and giving you 12 songs about love (not just the usual super sweet kind, though of course there'll be some of that too 😉) with names that start with each of the letters of...

Yo. Here's this month's GIF: Books: I...haven't really read non-school books this month. Specifically, the only book I've read this month is White People, Indians, and Highlanders  and it was so. tedious. I haven't read such a dry book in a long time. I really want to get back into reading at least a little bit every day but I've been super super busy for the past couple weeks and will continue to be so for at least the remainder of this week and all of next. Relaxation is needed. BUT, I have some good news. I've started reading Compulsion and I'll try to keep reading it steadily (I have some time before one of my morning classes because I ride the shuttle and get there early). So far, it's been pretty good. Nothing to fangirl about, but then I'm not very far in. Music: Got7 dropped a MV out of nowhere  and I freaked out and I love it oh my gosh Jackson is perfect. Has his voice actually gotten lower? Asian puberty con...

Soooo this unpopular opinions thing. I have them of course. BUT I do not think that everybody should agree with me or that my opinion is the gospel truth (but you can think that if you want ;) ). THIS IS A FUN THING. And, please, if you want to-- go ahead and write a huge comment disagreeing with me.  Sophia from Ravens and Writing Desks tagged me and according to her this tag originated with TheBookArcher (I'm trusting you, Sophia). Thanks so much for the tag! 1. A popular book or series that you didn't like:     Yup, you saw right. :D I don't like The Hunger Games series.  The weird thing is, the first time I read the books (or the book , the first one) I loved them. I thought they were the greatest thing in the universe. BUT, when I read them the second time... I wasn't so impressed. Especially with the way Katniss was written. Something about it totally didn't work the second time.  I don't even know why this happened. I...

This month was a pretty eventful month just because I wrapped up my summer class and moved back to college (packing can be pretty time consuming) and all the things. It was pretty jammed together. I have an apartment now guys! I'm so happy. I have the same roommate as I did last year and really she's so chill and easy to live with. And if you want, you can go watch my apartment tour video. No pressure ;) Without further ado... let's get into the recap. (as always, there's tons) N. Flying debuted this May with their song Awesome  and it has a really neat, funky sound.  They're also a band. So that means: lead singer, guitarist, bass guitarist, and drummer. I have to be in a certain mood to play this song but when I am  in that mood it's on repeat.  I don't know why I only found about this song recently because IT. IS. GORGEOUS. The rap parts are amazing (as usual) and the singing parts are equally as amazing (as usual). And um, yo...

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...
