Lifestyle and Daily Shenanigans with a dash of Nerd Appreciation thrown in.
Willkommen!
Hello, there! I'm Mochizuki, a twenty-something year old Graphic & Web Design student located somewhere in America and welcome to Waiting for June a Lifestyle blog that occasionally gets a tad too personal, talks about cosmetics, and constantly the home for prattles about Bandcamp, nerd culture, and tea/coffee. To find out more about blog and the blogger, click here.
Thank you so much for visiting and reading Waiting for June! If you like what we do here and want to help support the addiction of the blogger, you should look into spoiling the blog and its creator with coffee and gifts by using the links below. Even if you don't, you're still pretty dope for visiting, reading, enjoying, et cetera.
Located at 1009 Athens Hwy in Loganville, Georgia, Thai Taste is described on the restaurant's site as:
We served authentic Thai Cuisine, bringing balance and harmony in our menu offering a variety of dishes rich color, flavor and texture.
Each dish is individually prepared by our chef. We can tailor to suit your particular taste in most of our dishes upon request.
Thai Taste is a little gem that tucked away in the same plaza with a Subway, a nail salon, and a Papa John's and if you aren't looking closely, you may just miss it. I've only been there about three times in total, but from the first moment I ate there, I wondered the heck I hadn't been to the restaurant before.
It's a small little restaurant that gives off a cozy, little family-ish feeling to it and I absolutely adore the aura it has. As much as I love it though, it is a bit too small and I wouldn't recommend it for an outing with a lot of people as it is much suited for a more private outing for maybe 4-8 people tops.
Despite the small size of this restaurant, it's pleasantly clean and you can smell the air filling with the deliciousness that is being cooked up in the kitchen. The food is absolutely delicious and it is warm served to you. You can definitely tell that some time went into it.
The Thai Tea and Thai Coffee are the main drinks they serve there, but they do have soft drinks and hot coffee/tea. I would just like to mention that both the Thai Tea and Thai Coffee are not recommended by me for those who can't handle the taste of things that are too sweet, especially the Thai Tea. Also, before drinking either of those two drinks, you need to stir it up or else all the flavour will settle at the bottom. The Thai Coffee is always my personal drink of choice cause I'm a huge coffee addict and despite being a bit sweet, the taste of coffee is overwhelming just as I like it.
The appetizers are to die for. So good. So far, I've only had the Cream Cheese Rolls, the Crispy Calamari, and the Crispy Tofu. They are absolutely delicious and I definitely recommend those three. Not only are they cooked amazingly, but the sauces are so good. I definitely want to go through all their appetizers and entries eventually. Unlike in a good bit of American restaurants I've been to that serve you appetizers that leave you feeling full before you get to your meal, Thai Taste isn't like that. Which may a good or bad thing depending on your preferences. Since I like to sit and chat about with my mates, having enough space to eat a meal after an appetizer is ideal for me.
The meals are also surprisingly delicious. I'm really picky about my Asian food and how they taste. So for me to compliment a restaurant on making quality Asian food is saying a lot. I've had the Chicken & Broccoli, the Green Curry, and the Red Curry. I've tasted the Tom Kha, the Tom Yum, the Sesame Chicken, the Pad Thai, the Tofu Soup, and the Teriyaki Tofu. All of which were delicious. The only complaint I have is that some of the soups (the Tofu Soup and the Tom Kha) have all been a bit too salty for my tastes, but still definitely good.
For desserts, the offer Mango slices with Sticky Rice, Green Tea Ice Cream, Fried Ice Cream. I may be forgetting some, so my apologies. I've had the three listed above with Sticky Rice (save for the Fried Ice Cream) and they've all been delicious. The Green Tea Ice Cream sometimes has a bit of ice in it, but if you can ignore that (never too much or too noticeable until you taste it), you'll definitely enjoy it.
Also, one big thing that makes it amazing. Their customer service is absolutely wonderful. They are quick and efficient and you never need to worry about them slacking off in that department even if it is a little bit of a busier day for them.
This is a lovely place for an outing with a small group of friends and/or family and it is definitely recommended to you by me. So if you're ever nearby Loganville, Georgia and need some nice Thai food, head over to Thai Taste you won't be disappointed. (Also, you should definitely call up otto and I so we can all hang out, yeah?)

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.
The little spots on the internet that I read to pass time.

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.)
