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.
Yo, everyone! It's been so long since I've posted on here. One week shy of a month. Dear goodness. For those who don't know, I am a college student and my college works in a different way in comparison to other colleges/universities. So I've been busy with school and when I'm not busy, I'm exhausted. I think I mentioned this in my previous post, but I feel like it should be stated again. Thankfully, I'm on Spring Break. However, unfortunately, I failed my classes. Meh. I wish I could make excuses for it, but it's my fault and I'm completely okay and understanding towards it. I'll just have to lern how to work harder after Spring Break. No big deal. 야스 파이팅!!
In honor of my one week break, I'm returning back with a huge post today, as well as planning posts for the rest of the week. ♥ So, continue past the jump to continue reading. I should arn you now...it's a massive text post and if you make it towards the end, I bloody fucking love you.
So let's start of this post properly with some Instgram pictures. Seeing as I've been away for a total of three weeks, these pictures are all photos from my Instagram taken between the dates of February 23rd to March 16th. In total, there are eight pictures.
So, let me talk about my favourites briefly. First off my two main favourites, one and two, are the tops for obvious reasons. Or maybe it's just obvious to me. Let me explain. Over the course of the last couple months, I've not been around the people in my neighborhood and with us all being around each other again, laughing and talking and overall chilling again in weather was just too perfect for words, The first picture is my absolute favourite because it was a ompletely accidental picture, but it pretty much sums up how much of the day I spent just laughing and being genuinely happy. The second picture is another favourite because well, it was just a collage of pictures that I took when I was out with friends yesterday. Man, it was a good ass fucking day. As for my final picture, I adore this picture. I look cute. ♥
On to our next matter at hand, and it'll be a brief one, but if you haven't already heard: Google Reader is being shut down. Now like I said, this is going to be rather brief because honestly, I have no time for this fuckery². Obviously I'm fan of Google Reader, actually if you're a Blogspot blogger...by default, you fucks with Google Reader. It's something we've all grown to love, hate, and appreciate. Getting rid of it seems absolutely pointless to me and frankly, I'm really tired of Google doing all this unncessary fuckshit. No one is here for it, Google... No one. Nevertheless, I don't run Google nor do I have a say in the matter, so I'll deal for now and move to something else. Which brings me to my next point.

6. Next your Google accounts should pop up like so and you'll need to select the account that is associated with the blogs you wish to import.
7. On the next page, select the blue button Allow Access.
8. For the most part, after selectiing Alloww Access, it'll take a bit to load and then all the blogs you're following will be added. If it doesn't do that automatically, then there should be a confirmation of sorts and you should click that.
It's a small tutorial, but I hope it was helpful for you lot, if you do in fact use it. At this point, I'm done with this fuckery.
For those who haven't noticed, the blog has a new layout. I'm not quite sure how much I like it now, but it shall suffice for the time being. I haven't made a progess post because I don't think I took that many caps during the proccess, so there's nothing for me to show. Which sucks cause I rather fancy going back and looking through things. I've also added some sections to the sidebar, the contact and support sections. Read the sidebar for information on contacting and supporting/being supported by the blog. Also, I've moved all the side pages to a Tumblr. I enjoy the complete customization pages have on Tumblr, so I'm taking full advantage of it. So don't be alarmed if clicking some of the navigation links direct you to a Tumblr blog.
In other news, I'm planning to do a whole slew of music reviews and contact reviews in the upcoming days. I've just been...purely exhausted lately. And yes, I do still remember that I owe quite a few post subjects and videos/tutorials for people...so don't worry. Now, I must sleep and call it a day. 야러분~잘자요!!

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.

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.)
