| × Siaena (시애나) | CAFÉ DE SIAENA front cover. |
So if you read my previous post all the way through, you might have noticed that I included singer Siaena's “Winter Is Coming” music video. The thing about Siaena is that while she is a new singer, she's was previously a composer who decided to try her hand at being a singer-songwriter. Personally, I absolutely adore her voice. It's soothing, yet it remains that very typical ballad singer feel to it. It does funny things to my tummy that I rather enjoy.
So me being me, I decided that I'd romanize the entire mini-album. This should be fun. And yes, this post is currently incomplete, but will be added to slowly.

So I decided to be a lazy ass and not blog on Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm American and yesterday was the sixth, I had an excuse to not blog. Basically, my excuse is the election and I'm sticking to it. Barack Obama beat He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named-Who-Rivals-Voldemort-In-Utter-Evilness 270-203 (overall it was 303-206 in favour of Obama obv.) so I celebrated...with drinks. A lot of them. Which led me to sleep in yesterday and when I woke up, I made my fucking pancakes, stared at the blog and promptly said fuck this and chatted on Skype with some friends.
I'm not going to go in on my political views because that's a topic that I just don't touch. Y'all have your views, I have mine. That being said, when I'm referring to Mr. Obama's former opponent, I will not use his name (nor the name of his running mate, for that matter) on this blog. I've got no respect for them. Plain and simple.
That being said, today's blog post is all about Blogger pissing me off, good music, and me delving back into the world of romanizing Korean song lyrics. I gather this'll be a long blog post. And to make it fair, I'll put up a navigation so that you can jump to whatever section you think appeals to you.

It's Monday night for me and frankly, I'm all too happy for this bloody day to end already. I absolutely abhor Mondays. Mondays and Sundays are positively dreadful to someone like me who believes that the only real days of the week are the days in between and wishes that Sundays and Mondays could be slept in.
Anyway, I speent the day design a new layout. I'm still unsure of whether I want to make it a website layout, a Tumblr theme, or a Blogger skin. I think I may make three separate versions so that I can actually update my new blogskins and put it too good use...you know... finally. Kepp reading to check out the concept/main design for my new template, some information about said template, and pictures of my simple dinner.

Wootz!! It's Saturday and in case you didn't know, today happens to be my favourite day of the week. Since I'm a bored human being with way too much time on their hands and I also happen to really enjoy music, I decided why not make Saturdays dedicated to music. Thus! Music Saturdays. Now, I know it's not the most creative shit ever, but I seem to think it fits the ideal of my blog quite well. Anyway, the basis of Music Saturdays is simple. Every Saturday, I'll include the occasional mini-review of an album/single/EP and an 8tracks mix that is composed of songs that I get when I put my iTunes on shuffle. If a song is in one mix, it cannot reappear in another mix for 2 two months and all mixes will include between 8 and 15 tracks. I must admit that this is also an obvious attempt at trying to keep myself busy with the blog and keep my 8tracks updated at a decent pace.
Before I get into this week's (and sumeoseo's first) Music Saturdays, I need to tell you about the wonderful Friday I had when I went out my lovely wife, Hyunnie. It includes wonderful Thai food, ridiculous conversations, snackage, tasty drinks, and window shopping. I should warn you now that there is a good bit of pictures included, however, it's not a massive amount off pictures. And we totally forgot to take a picture together.

I'm so fucking happy that I can finally breathe over how this layout is going. God, I felt like I was never going to be content with the damn layout. So I remade it. I also deleted the previous blog opening post as well as the information on the DFD Take The Stares CD + Sticker giveaway. Don't get me wrong, I'll do the giveaway, but...you know what, no. Keep reading to find out why everything got fucked and everything got changed.

The Blog.
Find out a little more about Waiting for June.
“Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.” — Benjamin Franklin
Hello, there!
Welcome to Waiting for June. Waiting for June is a Lifestyle Blog that focuses predominantly on daily life shenanigans and nerd culture, but occasionally dabbles in health & beauty, food, and prattling about serious topics.
Waiting for June is the sixth iteration of the same blog with a different name and structure. The original iteration of this blog was started back in November of 2012 as a purely Beauty and Lifestyle blog under the name Monochromatics which later got abandoned and restarted under the name sumeoseo. With sumeoseo came more beauty and review based blog which quickly lost its appeal. From that point on, there were three name changes, multiple hiatuses, and two blog changes before coming to where we are now.
Throughout this journey, I've learned that this blog shouldn't be limited to what I feel fits in with what I read from other bloggers nor should I put myself in a position to compromise my integrity and the feeling of transparency that I feel should always be there. I've also learned that blogging is probably never going to be a huge source of income the way I always expected it to be. So when I finally returned back to blogging with a fresh blog and an equally fresh name, I decided to make this blog about anything that I wanted to and break the mold of trying to fit into the mold. I can only imagine where this experience is going to take me.

Hello, there!
Welcome to the little about me section of the blog. If it isn't obvious by now, I'm Mochizuki and I'm kind of pretty important here. Admittedly, Mochizuki is a nom de plume, but I digress. I'm currently somewhere in my twenty-somethings and doing that thing where I'm learning how to be a proper adult while balancing being a student and a worker. Speaking of school, I'm a Graphic Design major who's concentration is Web Design and I take my classes online. If I'm being honest here, I do everything online because of my apprehension towards too much social interaction.
I'm typically reading something, playing a video game, watching anime, or something otherwise nerdy because that's how I roll. I don't engage with people unless I'm positive there is something in common there simply because I don't want to make it weird for anyone involved. That said, the reason I originally created this blog, or rather, any of my blogging adventures, was so that I could engage with people wo share the same interests as me while simultaneously sharing my own things with people.
I'm not terribly good at about me's, so expect this to be updated sporadically in a lot of ways.

Review Policy.
A clear and concise guide on how reviews are approached and written.
This blog touches on and is dedicated to a variety of topics including: daily life, cosmetics, my journey to being a healthier me, music, books, anime, et cetera; however, a large chunk of the content found here are some form of review be they miniature reviews or full blown, in-depth reviews. Because of this, this blog has decided to implement and share it's review policy.
Please note that this policy is liable to change at any point in time, so do constantly check back before sending inquiries to kurahge@outlook.com.
- Depending on the workload and the type of product is received, at any given time, multiple products can be in queue to be reviewed.
- Depending on the product, the amount of time for a review to be posted varies. Typically, the length of time is as follows: anything health or beauty releated will take between 5 days and 1 week, books take between 3 days and 5 days, music and movie reviews take between 1 to 2 days, and most other reviews are variant depending on the situation at hand.
- Products are predominantly purchased with my own money. On the off chance that the product or prodcuts were provided to me, there is always a note at the top of post and as well as text within the post that acknowledges such. Despite being provided a product or not, the opinions are honest and valid.
- As of April 14th, 2016, there has been a change in how reviews are formatted. If working with a product that has a list of ingredients (health, beauty, cosmetics, etcetera), there will be a graphic that lists the ingredients out of respect and transparency for the readers.
- Photos for reviews, particularly health and beauty related, are unedited and provided in a clear manner to help show what results occurred (if any.)
- If at any point, a review is rushed despite being informed of and knowing the review policy of this blog, I will drop the review and pay for the product accordingly. I am a college student and a full-time worker, blogging is a bit of side project no matter how much I wish it otherwise, so my time is a bit crammed. Basically, rushing will terminate any agreement we may have unless it's valid (meaning absolutely my fault.)
