Yoooo! I initially wanted this post to be done and up a day or two after the first post of the yearlies but I started on a new layout and I wanted to really get that done before I either lost the motivation to do it (and would stew in unhappiness with the old layout) or I would just lose focus of what and where I was going with the layout (which I ended up doing anyway, so consider it another temporary layout). So there’s that. There’s nothing I can do about that aside from apologise for not pushing myself a bit harder, but I did want to focus on one thing at a time so that I wouldn’t mess up anything.
That being said, welcome to the second post in EXTREMIS’s 2013 Yearlies. If you didn’t read the first post and are somewhat confused, never fear. I am here to explain (not that I should, but hey.) Basically, the yearlies, obviously by the name, are a series of posts that run typically from the first week to the second week of January. In some instances, it runs a week or so longer. It’s basically a round up of all the things that I found absolutely lovely released in the previous year. They tend to be things that I feel should have a bit more attention and love than they do. In some instances, they have quite a lot of love and are extremely well known and in others, they’re not. The lists range from music to cosmetics to games to books to movies. This year, I’ll be focusing primarily on movies, games, and music as much of my year was focused around those main things. You can read the first yearlies post here.
In follow up of the previous post in this series, I’m going to this time showcase some of my favourite Korean releases of the year 2013. As there are more listed here than previously, I’m actually not going to spend too much time talking about each since doing that for four was a bit draggy, so doing it for eight would probably be dreadful. Ad I would like to point out that not all of these albums are under the Pop genre; most are, but not all.
Note: This post contains my personal opinions and no one else’s. I was in no way, shape, or form coerced nor offered any form of payment (be it monetary or whatever). This post is also not intended to change anyone's opinion nor poke fun at anyone’s opinion but rather to spark interest and possibly conversation.

Happy New Year and all that fuckery. Unlike other bloggers, I don’t spend the month of December posting a year in review and all jazz for two main reasons. The first being, December is still apart of the year we’re reviewing and it’s completely ridiculous, in my mind, to review a year that isn't complete yet. The second being, for some reasons, a lot of brands/companies and artists have a tendency to release things or offer up limited editions of their products (whatever it may be). It’s because of those two reasons that I don’t do my Year In Review posts until December comes to a complete close and January has begun. That being said, roughly the first two weeks of January will be dedicated to reviewing the year 2013.
To kick it off, I’ve decided to start off with something that I hold near and dear to my heart, music. If you couldn’t already tell, in this post, I’ll be talking about the albums of 2013 that I think that people slept on and they probably shouldn't have. For this particular post, I’ll be focusing primarily on the American/English mainstream releases.

Hello, hello. Holy shit, what's this? I'm baaaack. Well, sorta.... mostly. I'm a still a busy outside of this hectic world of blogging, but I'm not so out of control with it that I can jump back into blogging, but that's for a totally different post ( meaning the next one) and technically, this isn't as much of a return as much as it a reason for me to go ahead and be a slightly judgmental twat with a bit too much time on their hands.
Basically, I'm reviewing things again. And I'm reviewing things that I haven't done in forever and really and truly want to bring focus on to this blog. Music. Now, if you obviously can't tell, music is a huge part of my life. Whether it be anything from Rihanna, to the beautiful voice of the Korean singer Ailee, to jamming to some Japanese Rock, to listening to something more soothing like the Shoegaze band, Zeit; I'm immersed in it. I've said this multiple times before on this blog, but I really, really want for this blog to have more focus on music.
That being said, today's post is a review of two music videos that feature two of my personal favourite artists (for different reasons), Jessie J and Rihanna. Over the course of the week or so, both artists have released music videos for two singles; Rihanna's being “What Now” from her UNAPOLOGETIC album and Jessie J's being “Thunder” from her ALIVE album. Both songs are not only on the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of overall meaning, but both artists are also on the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of their artistry.
Well, does that make a difference? Keep reading to find out my take on it.

Originally, I had plans to post a different music post, but I realised almost immediately that it would have taken a rather long time to get it done considering my schedule (of packing, studying, more packing, et cetera) and thus I decided to take a different route. Earlier today, someone retweeted a tweet that I originally made late last month asking for people who were Bandcamp and/or SoundCloud artists to send me their stuff to check out because I need new music. Towards the original post, I actually hadn't gotten any responses and I think it was mostly because of the timing of the tweet.
Nonetheless, I a couple hours later, I was mentioned by a band named Zeit and asked to check out their newest EP. So I decided to do it in my own way and introduce them to you as I am getting introduced to them at the same time...therefore, it's an experience for all.
So 가자!

Hey everyone! Another day, another blog post. I skipped yesterday because honestly, I was too tired to do anything. I was up for 20 hours before I fell asleep and I only managed two hours before I was up again. Then I just got really sluggish and bleh and I just lacked a whole lot of motivation. So, my apologies for that.
Today's post is a two-in-one post. The first half of this post is going to be a review that I've been swearing and meaning to do for months on end and that is a review of Fall Out Boy's latest album, Save Rock and Roll, which happens to be one of my most played albums in iTunes. In actuality, it not a complete review as much as it's an overview for a complete review to come. As for the second half, I'll be continuing what I started in my previous post and doing both days nine and ten from the July Journaling Challenge. To track my progress of this challenge as the month of July comes and goes, feel free to use this tag.

Yo, everyone! Today's the 6th and you know what that means? One day closer to me to being 20. Ayeeee! I'm pretty much gonna be like this for the next couple days. I hope y'all don't mind, alright? I'mma just hit my dougie every post from now until the 23rd. Speaking of posting everyday, have you lot noticed the title? I bet you're like, " Da fuck, Yasu?" Allow me to explain.
Well, let's start with this. For those who don't know, a blog hop is basically a massive posting of blog names/buttons and their URLs. The point of a blog hop is to encourage bloggers alike to look over others blogs in hopes of finding something they really enjoy. It's somewhat like a blogger's network but much lax and definitely more blogger-based in the ideals that most blog hops are hosted, co-hosted, and sponsored by bloggers themselves. Some blog hops have rules like following all the hosts, co-hosts, and sponsors, but some much like this particular blog hop on require you to only follow the host and comment saying you'll be doing the blog hop alongside leaving your link.
Now let's talk more about specifics. The title is #21daystilsummer which the title of a blog hop that I joined hosted by the lovely Oleah who's blog i found today, but I absolutely enjoy. Basically, she wanted to ty and set her blog hop apart from others by making it a blog that incorporates those blog every day for a certain number of day challenge. Frankly, I think it's a lovely idea and since I seem to miss the sign up date for others and she didn't have a sign up date set in stone, I was more than happy to jump on board. So from now until the 21st, I'll be blogging everyday with every post titled as #21daystilsummer. If you wanna join this blog hop, all the information can be found here.
And so let's just into today's post.

It's been about yet another week since my previous post. Dear goodness, I always feel like shit when I come back to posting after a week and all I have is a post about my life and something that I feel is too boring or absolutely irrelevant to what this blog is, but then again I seem to think tapping too deep into my personal life is always a mess and no one should genuinely be subjected to that.
Thankfully, this isn't one of those over the top depressing posts. It's one of those filler posts that has a lot of text and a couple pictures and also happens to include an introduction to a new category. (I know, aren't you tired of me adding categories to this blog?).
Oh and I spazz a lot in this post. So bear with me...or don't bother passing GO and collecting 200$. Kudos if you're a cool kid who got that reference.

| 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.

| × 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.

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.

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.)

Some blog hops have rules like following all the hosts, co-hosts, and sponsors, but some much like this particular blog hop on require you to only follow the host and comment saying you'll be doing the blog hop alongside leaving your link.
Now let's talk more about specifics. The title is #21daystilsummer which the title of a blog hop that I joined hosted by the lovely Oleah who's blog i found today, but I absolutely enjoy. Basically, she wanted to ty and set her blog hop apart from others by making it a blog that incorporates those blog every day for a certain number of day challenge. Frankly, I think it's a lovely idea and since I seem to miss the sign up date for others and she didn't have a sign up date set in stone, I was more than happy to jump on board. So from now until the 21st, I'll be blogging everyday with every post titled as #21daystilsummer. If you wanna join this blog hop, all the information can be found here.
And so let's just into today's post.

It's been about yet another week since my previous post. Dear goodness, I always feel like shit when I come back to posting after a week and all I have is a post about my life and something that I feel is too boring or absolutely irrelevant to what this blog is, but then again I seem to think tapping too deep into my personal life is always a mess and no one should genuinely be subjected to that.
Thankfully, this isn't one of those over the top depressing posts. It's one of those filler posts that has a lot of text and a couple pictures and also happens to include an introduction to a new category. (I know, aren't you tired of me adding categories to this blog?).
Oh and I spazz a lot in this post. So bear with me...or don't bother passing GO and collecting 200$. Kudos if you're a cool kid who got that reference.

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.

| × 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.

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.
