I’m not going to sit here and say that I’m properly back yet because I’m not. This is just one of those posts that shows off the fact that I am a little shite who sees things, like ‘em and tries to blog about them before they get overly lazy and no longer wants to do it. So consider this one of those, “Hey, I’m not dead and I’m kinda here, but not really cause life” posts.
So here’s the story behind this post. I was scrolling through one of my favourite blogs to read on the down time, MochaLexy and I stumbled upon a post that I thought was too cute, her Blogmopolitan Quiz post. Now, this isn’t exactly a new idea, persay, but I rather enjoy the fact that it came in photo format rather than simply text. It adds an extra something to the whole thing that really made me want to do it. Plus, I love doing things like this. It helps me talk about myself with having to put forth too much effort to do so and I don’t have the urge to say, “Fuck it!” as much. That being said, I’m done wasting both yours and my own time and I’ll jump right into it.
Note: If you can’t read the text on the image, the questions and answers are listed underneath it. Also, there are quite a bit of typos in the image, so use the text underneath to double check. Read more »Labels: [personals], [tags], tags: the blogmopolitan quiz

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.

The Blog.

“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.)
