On Saturday, I went out with two of my good mates to the cinema partly because one of my mates wanted to see Prisoners, partly because we hadn't properly hung out with each other in a week or two, and partly because we wanted to hang out a couple more times before I moved a bit away. So, it was decided that day that we would head to the cinema. Initially, we were going to see Rush because that is what I, personally, wanted to see, but Prisoners was instead decided on. We opted to go to the 10:20 one which one of my mates, the time to work and change and grab us, and also gave me the time to hang out with a group of others.
When ten rolled around we headed out and of course, I made my friend make a pit stop so that I could hit up Starbucks and get a drink. Of course, the ride to Starbucks and then the cinema was filled with ridiculousness, but I can never properly explain it and it's better when seen for yourself. The movie started roughly around 10:35 and we left about 12:50 in the morning. I live tweeted about the movie for a good bit, but for a movie over 2 hours long, you can bet there's quite a lot left to say.
So... 가자!

There's no real lead into this post. Nothing intricate. I just needed a day where I wasn't posting about something extremely intense and time consuming and requiring some editing and colouring of pictures. So this is a late currents post since I'm behind on my Sunday one. Hopefully, I'll get out an Embarrassments + Currents post out this Wednesday so I'm back on a schedule.
Anyway, 가자!

This post was supposed to be made two days ago, but I've been in and out and super exhausted since that point, so I haven't exactly had the time to sit down and type up a blog post as of yet. Now that I've gotten the time, I can sit down and share my amazing experience with you all.
Seeing as I took my flatmate NIL with me to the screening, before we start, I'd like direct you guys to NIL's post on this adventure if you would like to read it. Also, a huge “Thanks!” to both Klout and Warner Bros for giving me the opportunity and tickets to go see this movie and experience the awesomeness of it.
Now, let's jump into this post. 가자!

So, today's a good day, I suppose. Well, okay. It's a good day for the blog and me as a blogger because I've been nominated for the The Liebster Award for the second time within a span of 7 months and that's amazing cause I sometimes think my blog's quality is shit. Nonetheless, I'm terribly, terribly thankful for it as I normally am when people compliment the blog or do things like nominate me for blogs. That being said, I'm only doing half of the requirements because of the fact that I was nominated previously. Technically, once you're nominated, you shouldn't do this again for a year or so, I think. Nonetheless, I enjoy doing this, so I'm doing it. As for the part I'm not doing, you'll see.
Also, I want to thank, Evelin Kivi for nominating me for the award. You're absolutely darling for doing so and I'm glad you find both my blog and I worthy enough for the nomination. And I want to thank the beautiful and positively nicely, Sinead for being the first person to give me Liebster award back in February. To read Evelin's Liebster post, click here.
Before we jump into this post, here's a couple songs for you to jam to while reading through this post. “Stardust” by MIKA, “Step With Me” by MIKA, “Lego House” (Live Billboard Awards @ 2013) by Ed Sheeran, “Autumn Leaves” by Ed Sheeran and “U.N.I” by Ed Sheeran. You're welcome.
Now, 가자!

Good day, loves! Well, morning for me. I started typing up this post at about 8pm last night and I finished around 7:30 am (Eastern Standard Time of course) without any bit of sleep in between. So as I type this introduction, it's morning for me. But there's no rest for the wicked!
Before you jump into reading this, click that link up above and let MIKA's voice again guide you through this post like an angel of amazingness. Today's post is yet another review and that makes this my second review in a span of about two or so weeks...maybe not even that long. Not only is today's post a review, but there's a little something extra, a couple pictures, and a request for you lot's opinions towards the end, so make sure you read it all.
Now, I'm gonna end this intro and go pass out on my face. Remember to comment, share, and love this post anyway you can.

Listen y'all, before you read this post, just go on ahead and click the song at the beginning of this post and jam to it. Of course they'll be a couple more links to songs throughout the post, but just listen to "Kick Ass (We Are Young)" first cause MIKA is godly and we are not worthy of that perfect ass vocal range. Yaaas. (If you can't view that link, click here.)
Anyway, I suppose I owe you lot an explanation as to why I've not been consistent with my postings yet again. Well, I won't go too in depth, but combine the fact that I'm looking for an apartment, packing, and cleaning with the fact that I'm updating the blog again by creating a new layout and you have a big ball of exhausted Yasu. Let's not even bother factoring in what a social life is cause I don't know at all. Seriously.
Nonetheless, today's post is a huge as mess of various things. The first part will be on the topic of Books and it stems from a Books Q&A I saw over at Water Painted Dreams. The second part an autumn blog tag that's now floating around. The third part is a different take on the currents that I normally do and inspiration is taken from Elise of Elise Dopson's third edition of Sunday Sum-Up. And as usual, the end all be all of this post will be my ranting and opinions and frustrations. I would say that profanity was going to be a thing, but I'm trying to cut down on it. So maybe not.
Man, these introductions to posts are getting longer. Can you imagine the massive text wall that's hiding beneath the read more?

Hey everyone! (I was sorely tempted to say "Konbankwanzakahmasuka, minna-san", but I didn't. You're welcome.) Now, before I properly jump into this post, I want to talk about something shortly. There was a post I made that I posted yesterday, but I quickly pulled it back in as a draft. If you managed to catch it before I retracted it, I apologize for the mistakes and intense amount of typos in that post and that was the reason I retracted it. The amount of typos and mistakes in the post made me cringe, so I decided to take it back and edit it. So if a post randomly pops up after this one, then you know why.
Now, that we have that all cleared up, let's talk about this post. Today's a bit of a shocking post, yeah? The last time I did a proper review was on March 23 with me reviewing EOS' Adult Red circle lenses and in that time, I just hadn't had the spark to do anything review related. It felt like I was completely turned away from everything I had grown accustomed to doing with this blog and it was a bit saddening. Deciding to change that, I stumbled upon Brand Backer, a site that helps fashion and beauty brands connect with bloggers in hopes of gaining more exposure, by chance and I thought this would be a perfect way to jump back into this.
가자! (Translation: Let's go!)

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.

The Blogger.
Prattle about the twenty-something university student behind the blog.
“I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.” — Albert Einstein
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.)
