Life of a Random

Yiiiikes, hey everybody. It's been two whole months since my last post. 😟 Woops. I have been staying really busy this summer, and it's been busyness with art or design type stuff as opposed to my other college summers where I stayed cooped up in my room and took online classes or studied for exams. I like the change of pace. If you're interested in finding out what the mysterious and vague "art or design type stuff" is, then I won't disappoint. Keep reading! Stay Bookish Zine I don't think I've talked about this on the blog (I HAVE on my twitter though, which is where you can keep up to date with it). The Stay Bookish Zine was started by Hazel Ureta of Stay Bookish. I think I randomly saw a tweet from another current staff member about an open application for staffing an e-magazine last winter. They needed graphic designers and I was like "aw yeah, a magazine that combines YA and design, like this is mah dream." So I applied...

A long time ago when I was super into booktuber channels I tried to start doing videos about books. I did one . It's right here . (Ew. Gross. Please don't watch it. I was awkward and young.) It was too long, the quality was crummy, and I was horrible at editing (I might not be an expert now but at least I know something ). At least people have told me it's funny, but that's the only thing that it's got going for it. But recently, like last summer, I decided to try again. It was because of a life-changing BTS (K-pop group) concert . NOW what do I do you ask? Good question. For now, I'm pretty much doing K-pop things. Mostly music video reactions. It's something I'm really passionate about right now so that's what I'm doing right now (even though I'm not super happy with the quality of the programs I'm using but eh what can a poor person do). That's not to say I don't plan to eventually incorporate book things into...

I think I need to make a new picture for this. It's been a while since I did a "random day" post so I thought I'd do one today. :) I'm sorry I don't get to post more than once a week usually, but that's a huge  improvement from last school year so I'm happy. Songs I've Been Listening to: This gem is Fronting by Seventeen and it's on their newest mini album. I really like it. <3 And you should go have a listen.  I've also been listening to this awesome Celtic music to get me through preparing for my American History presentation. It really made me concentrate and also, Celtic music is my love. I can't get enough of that flute music. School is....Blegh: This week I've been just in a bleh mood with school and everything. Everything's boring. Everything makes me tired... and bored (did I mention that already?). It's just a ho-hum week. And ever since I've been back to school, it's basically...

It's that time of the year again. School. (It's actually slightly terrifying that I'm a sophomore already.) Last school year   really messed up my blogging flow. I had been getting into a good rhythm (summer of 2014), but moving to a new college (2 hours away from home I might add) and taking new classes-- It was stressful. And when I’m stressed out about school, reading is the furthest thing from my mind. I’m a nerd like that. But blogging is a huge part of my life. It has been for the past few years. And I don’t want to stop anytime soon. SO, here’s my new plan that I will try my hardest to stick to. It involves a few, small changes. 1. I will now be posting, at the minimum, once a week. Now, if I have time I will try to slip in another post in the middle of the week around… say Wednesday. But that’s not a given. What IS going to happen is that there will be a post on the blog every Sunday. 2. Many of these posts will be pre-written and scheduled. I...
