| Selca #1: New red wig came in recently and I absolutely adore it even if there's a bit too much volume. I think it'll grow to be one of m favourites. ((Ignore my slightly chapped lips...I kept licking them even though I had gloss on orz) |
It's already been a week? Again? Dear goodness, where is time going? I know I've been tweeting crazily about blogging and making a new posting but I really just have come to Blogger and without fail, lost the motivation to post anything every time I've hit the "New Post" button. Finally, after another bloody week filled with college documents, preparing for college orientation, going out, and being dreadfully exhausted, I finally have the time and motivation to blog.
Despite what this may seem like, I'm actually not going to do a personal blog post today, I'd rather not bore you with a lengthy description of the nothingness that my week has been. Today's post (well, one of today's post) is another lens review, I do remember warning you readers that there would be a lot of those coming up because I bought such a massive amount from Kiwiberry when they had their holiday sale (9 in total).
So keep reading so we can get into all of this.

Good Sunday all. I'm tired and exhausted as hell after pulling an all nighter on Friday and then going out without any sleep on Saturday. It was the worst thing I've done in a while and honestly I had all intentions of blogging when I got home yesterday, but it seems like exhaustion won over my wants. Which is totally okay. However, this is probably going to be something that occurs a lot in the future with schooling coming up and what not. Sigh.
Anyway, we're not here to get into an in depth personal spectrum of things, that'll be in my next post, today is something I'm totally excited about and have been hinting at as an upcoming post for a couple days now and if you can't already tell from the title of this post or the picture in the second link above, shame on you. I'll be reviewing one of my favourite lenses from the batch that I got from Kiwiberry (the last of my batch came in yesterday, which was pretty great), the EOS Manson White lenses.
So let's just jump right into this post, yeah?

| Teaser Photos: This picture really has nothing to with this post, but it is foreshadowing an upcoming post. |
Yeeeey for starting out posts with my face!! I'm really trying my hardest to get more comfortable with taking pictures of myself and being in front of a camera in general. Which ties in with the whole self confidence things I'm working on cause as narcissistic as I can be at times, I still lack a huuge amount of self-confidence. Also, I'm working on a eating healthier and well...actually eating since I have such a problem with remembering to eat or waking up too late/falling asleep too early to eat. I hope I can do it.
Anyway, this post isn't supposed to be about my upcoming life events and all that jazz, so pardon that ( that's for a later bog post!). This post is a post that includes both the K-Indie recommendations I promised last post as well as some about me tags I found on Tumblr and combined. You find those tags and their questions: here, here, here, here, and here.
Read on past the jump to read the tag responses (and no, I'm not tagging anyone this was done for fun) as well as the recommendations.

| otto & I: I realized this is like one of few pictures of us on the blog. So...<3 |
I realized it's been a couple week since my last blog post. Dear goodness. I can't even believe that time has flown by so quickly. If you couldn't tell by the title of the post, rather than catch you all up on what's been going on these last couple days, I'm just going talk about the time I spent with my wife, otto, cause let's be real...that's the only important thing that happened. So, don't walk into this post thinking you're going to get a huuuge explanation about my disappearance from Blogger. I'll mention it briefly, but nothing aside from that.
Also, I promised a good friend of mine and a couple others that I would offer them a list of some Korean Indie bands/artists that I completely recommend and that can be found here.
Keep reading past the jump for pictures and more blabberings.

Good day everyone! I missed a post yesterday because I was out with a friend and I didn't get home until a little bit after midnight. I was out for a while though, my friend came at like 4pm when I was sleeping and had the audacity to greet me with, "Did I wake you up? Man, it's 4 o'clock, you better wake your ass up. We're going to exercise and then we're gonna chill. Now give me a hug, I haven't seen you since last year." I kind of just snorted tiredly and gave her a hug.
I have to admit though, I wasn't too upset with it because I hadn't, in fact, seen her since the latter part of 2012, a bit before Halloween and Thanksgiving. So I wasn't too angry. So after I got ready and she filled me in on how her New Year was already ringing in with some drama, we headed to the park and walked for a bit. I think we walked about a mile or so, even with the shortcuts and stuff we took.
I hope you rather enjoy the picture I used to open this post up. Keep reading for an explanation of this ridiculousness and even more ridiculousness in the form of pictures.

| My camera case, my cell phone, my Swag wallet, my glasses, and my Subway sandwich. |
This weekend was absolutely lovely, guys. And I genuinely mean that. It was something that I definitely needed. I finally got to see my lovely wife, otto, again after not seeing her since Thanksgiving weekend and I just was already set for the weekend when we picked her up. She gave me my Christmas gifts, which I totally forgot to take pictures of, but when I do, I'll update this post with them, and I gave her hers.
She almost took back the gift she got me when she saw mine cause she felt that it wasn't up to par with what I got her...but I loved it. I loved that she gave me the cutest things ever and I'm happy with them. In case you're wondering, I got her the same camera I have but in black. You can read more about in at her post.
We pretty much spent the entire day together and then she spent the night. So it was tons of time to catch up. As you can see we went to Subway, but we also went to our favourite Thai place and the Caribbean bakery. So yum yum. This may come as a shock to people, but despite being fat...amongst the group of friends I have, I eat the least. I can normally eat a sandwich or a snack and be full enough to bypass a meal until later on in the day. Which is what ended up happening on Saturday. After eating the Subway, I ended up not being hungry enough to eat any of the Thai until later.

It's a bit later than I actually wanted to get this out there and because of that I've added another topic of review in it.
Initially I was going to review Kiwiberry's store, but I went out yesterday with the wife, otto, and I ended up wearing the lens I got from PinkyParadise. So I just decided to review all three in the same post. I should also mention that while this post can be a bit photo heavy depending on how your computer runs, a lot of the photos from the lens review are old (as you can tell by the editing and colouring used) and this review was meant to be done way before 2012 was even close to ending. So, wootz for posting late reviews. and look! First review of the new year, that's always good.
Anyway, I have to say this before I go in. This is not a sponsored post nor has my opinion been influenced by any person or persons. These opinions and words are strictly my own and no one else. I am not getting paid to do this review in any manner, so please do not take post more than what it is... an opinion.\

For today's post, I decided to do something that I've wanted to do for a while and revive an old post of mine. Now, if you didn't already know...I've been blogging for technically 2 years. My original blog can be found here or here. Initially, I was excited about blogging, but Monochromatics died extremely quickly for me because as much as I love makeup and cosmetics...I just couldn't support myself enough to be a beauty blogger, plus I have way too many interests to just blog about one thing. So Monochromatics was a sham. A year, to the day exactly, this blog was started. And I'm by far, much more comfortable here. However, I'll never delete Monochromatics on either Tumblr or Blogger, so it's always there for people to see if they wish to look.
However, that's not the point of this post. Even though, my blogging birthday technically passed...we'll venture away from that. Since I posted a recipe yesterday, I thought I'd bring back the first and only recipe I posted on one of my blogs. Last year for Thanksgiving, I spent it with my wife, otto, and while there, I ended up cooking (of course she helped out.) The full, original post can be found here...but I am going to repost it to this blog to join yesterday's post.
So enjoy and ignore the rambling in the directions. ♥

| Arbor Mist: Mixed Berry Pinot Noir, Sangria Zinfandel, and Peach Chardonnay ; Bartles & Jaymes: Fuzzy Navel |
On Monday evening, my mum and I made our way to our fancy local Walmart and picked up some groceries. Of course since it was New Years Eve, my mum decided to lovely and indulge in picking up some alcohol. We both prefer the taste of Arbor Mist (and I would have preferred homemade wine) and I like anything that's sweet, so we picked up a couple bottles of Arbor Mist and B&J's Malt Coolers in Fuzzy Navel to appeal to both of our tastes. Obviously, I kept the Fuzzy Navels for myself and I couldn't wait until we got home before I pulled out a bottle. So I had one on the way home. It's delicious, seriously. Ugh, so good.
Anyway, I went to Walmart with the intentions of picking up some stuff so that I could cook on Tuesday. I knew I definitely wanted to make a pasta dish, so I definitely went with that in mind. Me being me, I always seem to get distracted when I'm picking up groceries because I'm never quite sure what I want to make fully. While I ended up picking up some Wel-Pac Chow Mein Stir Fry Noodles, I also ended up picking up some a block of melting cheese, Chicken Stock, Seafood Flavour Booster, Soy Sauce (I like using it my ramen) and a bottle of Teriyaki stir-fry sauce.
By the time Tuesday rolled around, I genuinely did not what the heck I was going to make as I sat there staring all the things I had bought. What the hell can I make with Cheese, Soy Sauce, and Teriyaki Sauce and actually make it taste somewhat decent? Nothing. Nothing at all. But I assure you...I was wrong.
So to ring in the New Year right, I bring you a recipe. For now, I think I'll call it Accidental Pasta With A Chicken & Cheese Sauce...which is really what it is. Keep reading to get the recipe and all that good stuff.

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.)

We both prefer the taste of Arbor Mist (and I would have preferred homemade wine) and I like anything that's sweet, so we picked up a couple bottles of Arbor Mist and B&J's Malt Coolers in Fuzzy Navel to appeal to both of our tastes. Obviously, I kept the Fuzzy Navels for myself and I couldn't wait until we got home before I pulled out a bottle. So I had one on the way home. It's delicious, seriously. Ugh, so good.
Anyway, I went to Walmart with the intentions of picking up some stuff so that I could cook on Tuesday. I knew I definitely wanted to make a pasta dish, so I definitely went with that in mind. Me being me, I always seem to get distracted when I'm picking up groceries because I'm never quite sure what I want to make fully. While I ended up picking up some Wel-Pac Chow Mein Stir Fry Noodles, I also ended up picking up some a block of melting cheese, Chicken Stock, Seafood Flavour Booster, Soy Sauce (I like using it my ramen) and a bottle of Teriyaki stir-fry sauce.
By the time Tuesday rolled around, I genuinely did not what the heck I was going to make as I sat there staring all the things I had bought. What the hell can I make with Cheese, Soy Sauce, and Teriyaki Sauce and actually make it taste somewhat decent? Nothing. Nothing at all. But I assure you...I was wrong.
So to ring in the New Year right, I bring you a recipe. For now, I think I'll call it Accidental Pasta With A Chicken & Cheese Sauce...which is really what it is. Keep reading to get the recipe and all that good stuff.
