in with the new

hello guys!! how are u doing?

it feels odd to be posting not even a week after my last post, but whatever! i think it's better to just post whenever i feel like it lol. but i won't keep u long, i promise.

nothing particularly interesting has been going on for me lately, as i've mostly been laying around and listening to music. but i guess i can talk about some random things!

the day after christmas, we drove my grandma back home and went to my other grandma's house to pick up some more presents. i got a necklace with a crescent moon pendant, and a lip pillow.

earlier tonight, my parents and i went looking at dishwashers. it's crazy but i'm actually excited about house appliances. after washing all the dishes by hand for over a month or two, i can't tell u guys how ready i am to get a new dishwasher and save myself some time when cleaning the kitchen.

but i just know washing dishes would be much easier if everyone just washed their own dish after eating, or at least rinsed all the food remnants off before they got stuck to the dish.. i guess i have to be the change i wish to see in my house. :/

anyways, my sleep schedule has not been so good lately. last night, i was still awake at 1am and i think i tried to sleep, but couldn't. so i went on my computer for like two hours, and didn't go to sleep until after 4am. and that is the backstory of my new blog theme. how do u guys like it~?

and i made a new button a short while ago!! honestly, i don't know how i feel about it rn. i like it, but i also feel like it looks a little weird. i changed the font and increased its size, then added a little cat png but now i'm worried there's too much going on? maybe i'm overthinking it, idk.

well.. i think that concludes this post for now, hehe. life goes on in the same ways each day, but i remain well! i hope to talk with u guys soon, byebye for now~

merry christmas!

hi guys!!! i hope everyone had a great day. i know i did!

so to start off, here's what i got:

⭐︎ phone charger (it's as tall as i am! now i charge my phone while laying in bed comfortably)

⭐︎ bath & body works lotion and perfume

⭐︎ exfoliating sponges

⭐︎ gloves, scarf, and beanie set (hasn't arrived yet)

my sister also made the sweetest edit as a gift for our family! it had a bunch of pictures and videos of us as kids, and i was tearing up so bad. that video was probably my favorite gift.

after opening presents, everyone just kinda relaxed for a while, but later on we gathered in front of the tv to play that say the word on beat game. have u guys played that? it's a lot of fun, but pretty challenging. we also played a game of avoid saying the same answer as me (christmas edition), would u rather, and we even did some riddles!

then, we had some chips and dip and i made more double chocolate cookies. here's some cookies for u guys!!! 🍪🍪 (koi, i know u don't like chocolate very much so i'll give u a virtual sugar cookie if that's okay lol.)

random, but we also went through my dad's facebook. one of the first pictures he posted was from like 2012 maybe?? and i was going through all the pictures and reading all the comments hehe. it brought back some sweet memories. ah, i miss those day so muchhh :c

anyways, i should probably wrap it up here. i'm not tired now, so i'll probably be around on the web somewhere. stay safe, warm, and happy my dear friends. i love u guys!!!! :D

party party yeah

hello everyone, i was planning to post a blog on sunday but i guess i got lazy and just.. didn’t. my apologies 

but i wanted to talk about my weekend! particularly, my saturday, which was a very long day.

so this past saturday my family and i traveled down to another city for a family member’s memorial, and then we had a christmas party at my grandmother’s house afterwards with a bunch of family on my mom’s side.

we had lots of food and karaoke, and i got to see a ton of my cousins. my little cousin brought over her bracelet making kit and we made bracelets together, but i couldn’t manage to tie a good enough knot.. so the bracelets kept falling apart :,) but i really enjoyed spending time with her, she’s so sweet!

we didn’t leave my grandmother’s house until 1am, didn’t get home until after 2am, and i don’t think i got into bed until 3am. i slept in until NOON on sunday, and i don’t think i’ve slept that long since the 2020 lockdown lol.

lastly, i spent all of monday making a new spacehey layout bc i needed pink back in my life. i really like it!!

and oh! i forgot to tell u guys in my last post but i managed to pass organic chem with a B. it was a big relief.

well……… it is past 3am! i’m kinda struggling to sleep bc my head is so itchy. i think i may be allergic to some hair products or maybe i need to wash my hair again. aghhh the misery.. TT anyways, goodnight guysss i love u mwah mwah <33

monotony is fine sometimes

hello hello~! i'm back with another weekly blog post. (it has been a week, right? i've kinda been losing track of time.)

i don’t have anything interesting going on now, but i still would like to post something bc i love my friends. i hope u guys are doing good these days, despite ur busy schedules! i've had a lot of fun reading and leaving comments on u guys' recent blogposts. they are the highlights of my day! thank u for taking the time out of ur day to write them <3

well, i haven't been up to a whole lot lately. i messed around with some code a bit, watched webdramas, and slept a lottt. and every day i wake up i realize the days are flying right past me. christmas is in five minutes!!!

in other news, my car wouldn't start this week. it's been pretty cold, and i haven't been driving much so it just sits outside. and i guess the battery was affected?? sorry, idk about cars guys. but i have no complaints bc i have no desire to go out rn...

i've been drinking a lot of hot chocolate lately and it's so yummy~ do you guys like marshmallows in yours? i love marshmallows so so so so much. it's too bad my sister and i ate the majority of the marshmallows before putting them in the hot chocolate. they're just so soft and sweet!! resistance is impossible.

it’s almost 11pm.. i should probably be going. plus it’s really hard to type this on my phone lol.. i can’t wait to talk with u guys soon!!! byebyeeee~

la misma luna

hello!! :D i'm just checking in before i go to bed.

today wasn't a super eventful day, i mainly sat around watching youtube or scrolling through social media... i know, it's not so good.

but there was one good thing! 

i finally managed to sit down and work on my nekoweb site for a bit after neglecting it for weeks. overall, the site looks very very awkward rn, and idk WHAT i wanna put where. a random gif here? a stamp/blinkie hoard there? creativity, please visit me!!! anyways, i started working on the homepage and about me page, and i've also been trying to come up with site names, but it's hard. when i do manage to come up with a name tho, i will also need to make a button for it. 

and speaking of buttons, i might redo my blogger button as well. my current one is so plain and boring, and i feel like the font is too small. idk yet tho. currently pondering...........

in other news, i tried to teach lucy and kali the "roll over" trick today. they cannot do it on command yet, but it's a more advanced trick so i will continue luring them with treats for now. it was so funny to watch them roll over on their backs tho.. well, until they started fighting each other for no reason. silly dogs :3

been listening to a bit of naoko gushima lately, specifically the debut album, miss G. she has such a calming sound; i imagine a small cafe on a cloudy day in november. (also, first time using a semicolon, kinda nervous).

well, i don't wanna ramble too much! it's getting pretty late too, so i should probably try and get some sleep.... perhaps. i hope you guys are well, and i can't wait to talk with u soon! luvluvluv u so much, byebyeeeee~

can’t stop love

haiii, posting from the phone again :p

just a random question, but do u guys know about this website called btemplates.com?? it’s a site full of blogger templates you can download for free. it’s kinda like createblog but with way more options and more "professional" templates lol. i’ve been browsing through the site recently, and a lot of the templates look kinda cool. i’ve been thinking about downloading one and testing it out.

my current layout is nice and i love that it still works even after all the years it spent on cb, but one thing i don’t like about it is that i cannot access my comments from the homepage. i have to go on my phone whenever i wanna respond to comments and it’s a bit of an inconvenience, yk? and i’m not entirely sure how to add a comment link on the page, sooo.. :/

i’ll probably dedicate some time to working on my blogger tomorrow. i’m sorry i change it so much!!!! i’m just trying to get it to look how i want it to and have all the right features hehe.

besides blogger, i made my return to spacehey bulletins and i was happy to chat with my friends~ i love the little community there so much. and i FINALLY managed to create a new layout yesterday, which i keep staring at so much. it reminds me of a grape candy or soda.. :0

also. u guys. while i was working on my new spacehey layout yesterday i listened to this life-changing playlist full of like.. idek the proper name for it but it was a korean playlist full of some amazing songs from the 2000s.

the first song was “love love love” by epik high and i fell IN LOVE with that song, so i just had to put it on my spacehey profile. i’ve played it at least twice today while staring at my page, it’s just TOO good.

i also watched a bunch of mvs yesterday just for fun and considered a music career bc yes i wanna sing and dance and look beautiful all the time. but it is never that happy. agghh, why is life not glitter and rainbows!!!!!!!

lastly, i just wanna say that the moon was so bright and beautiful tonight. loved it, 10/10.

well, i’m rambling now! i should be getting some sleep, but i’ll talk with u guys sooooon~ love u, night night!

updates

hi bffs, happy thanksgiving if u celebrate!!

thanksgiving is somewhat cancelled here bc of family emergencies, but i'm pretty sure we will still have a decent meal. it just won't be a big family gathering. what are you guys doing for thanksgiving? any special meals? :o

in other news, i recently submitted my very first job application. it's at a beauty store, but idk much about makeup and hair so i just applied to be a task associate. that's basically just stocking the shelves, making sure the store is organized, and assisting customers with finding things. not so hard, hopefully! i'm kinda anxious about the idea of being around people, but i like money so i'll be fine. plus it's only for a few weeks! so it's not even like a super permanent thing. if i do end up getting accepted, i will let u guys know :D

yesterday was my younger brother's birthday, and so we took him out to have lunch today! the food was good and he even got a free strawberry shortcake dessert. he also got some headphones for a gift but i think my dad's gonna buy him a different pair but i asked to have the headphones instead and i got them! now when i walk my dogs i can listen to music without fear of them falling off. (my earbuds can get kinda loose in my ears...)

the personal project i mentioned in my last blog is coming along well! i was able to finish one part, but i've still got like three more parts to go. hopefully it will be done by either the end of this week or possibly next week. i'm so excited to show u guys hehehe~

what else...

oh yeah. so i'm currently failing organic chemistry. i did so bad on the final exam. but it was so hard guys :( i hate chemistry so much, but the professor is grading on a curve so i hope my grade goes up a little so i can pass with at least a C-.

also, lucy got out of the fence again this morning. she was barking to be let out at 7am and so i let her and kali outside so i could go get back in bed right? well, there was construction going on next door and the sounds scared lucy so she ran away for some odd reason. like why are u leaving the backyard and going TOWARDS your fear?

anyways. i heard kali barking and that's when i found out lucy had run away. after driving around the neighborhood for a while we found her walking around near the entrance and brought her back home.

well, i wrote like a whole essay. i'll stop talking for now but i hope u guys are well! can't wait to hear from u soon!! byebyeee~

taidul

haiiii guys :D

i'm staying up later tonight bc my final speech tmrw isn't until noon so i get to sleep in, yaaaay.

i practiced my speech a couple of times today along with my powerpoint, and i think everything is pretty good. i'm cutting the time limit a little close tho lol, so hopefully i'm able to get through the whole thing in under 7 minutes.

also.. this might be my last night sleeping in a dorm.

i'm leaving tomorrow for the weekend and returning on monday evening for my organic chem final (sorry, put the wrong day on my bulletin lol). afterwards, i plan to return home and then come back to school on tuesday to finish packing. on tuesday night, i will check out from the residence hall and my officially break starts! so excitedddd.

this room is so hot rn i'm actually melting. i have my fan on but it does NOTHING. maybe i should've just slept at home instead of coming back here.. i even made some food bc i thought i was hungry but now i don't even want it that much TT ughhgdsjshgj

OH! i also added a chatbox in the "tagboard" section. eugene, thank u sososoooo much for telling me what to put there bc i was so confused LOL.

well, i'm gonna go watch a web drama now. nighty night bffs~

hiii.. hehe

 

hi guys… awkward tiffany is my current mood.

ik it’s basically been a decade since my last post but i just wanted to check in quickly. i’m currently typing this from my phone bc i cannot be bothered to open my laptop rn.

anyways, how are u guys feeling? i hope things have improved at least a little bit. trust me, i know these times are superrr rough. 

it’s great that we’re getting closer and closer to the holidays though~ is anyone doing anything special? i don’t have anything planned rn, so i’ll probably be at home for most of my break lol.

school has been so tiring. i feel like all i do is wake up, do schoolwork, sleep, and repeat. i won’t complain about it bc i feel like i’ve been doing a lot of that lately, but i’m just ready for it to all be over, seriously. just 4 more days..

also! i have a fun little “project” i would like to do soon. it’s not school related at all, so i’m really looking forward to it. it’s kind of a surprise, so when i get it done i’ll post it here for my bffs to see~

well, i think that’s enough from me for now. i hope to talk with u guys soon. byebyeeee!!! :D

what a week.

hello hello!!

we've reached the final stretch of the week, finally! do u guys count friday as part of the weekend? i do, bc it technically is lol.

honestly tho, this week was so annoying for me. so many little inconveniences, i might have been close to having a meltdown.

first, i was swarmed by wasps for two days straight. i've never been so terrified in all my nineteen years. i sent this in the family gc and my mom reacted with that emoji brooo 😭

second, my pink press-ons started popping off today. one came off while i was doing laundry, and then two more while i was trying to open a stuck drawer. i was so irritated i just took them all off.

lastly, i somehow messed my hair up. idk when it happened, but i either got it wet or it was exposed to humidity. i'm just gonna throw it in a ponytail tomorrow and fix it when i get home bc i don't have a blow-dryer or hair straightener here at school lol.

but ofc there were some good things this week too! i finally listened to the first t-ara album, and it was really good! super duper electric~ my favorites were "tic tic toc" "bye bye", and "apple is a". thank u so much eugene!!! ♡

also, my hall had a paint and sip party tonight. we painted flower pots, drank hot chocolate, and there were cookies and donuts! it was pretty fun, but my flower pot sucks. i cannot paint for the life of me, but it's okay! i still had a nice time and that's what matters!

anyways, it's getting pretty late so i should probably be getting ready to go to sleep. talk soon~

- nara ❤︎

happy halloween!

i've holed myself up indoors tonight, nothing to do really. 

i have spent the last few hours tinkering with this blog, and made no real progress sadly... custom fonts are giving me trouble and i'm so frustrated, i need a break. all the other code is seriously making my brain hurt.. 

it's definitely not as hard as i'm making it out to be, but i'm just struggling a lot with this rn lol. but it will come together soon, i'm sure of it. i can't wait! 

school today was a bit crazy tho. there was a guy that had been seen near the campus, and we were told to contact the campus police if we saw him and to not interact with him. as far as i know, all classes were online after that. idk what happened with the man, but after a few hours i got an email saying that everything was okay. 

then my sister went into a lockdown at her school too! like what.................. 

i guess ppl were just being super creepy in honor of today, idk.

well anyways, i don't have much else to say besides those things for now. talk soon!

laboratory

hello everyone, good evening!!!

i know it has been so long since i last updated here, but school has been kind of busy, and honestly i have very little energy by the end of a day full of classes and schoolwork. and on my lighter days, i think i just get lazy.. so i'm sorry about that lol.

but anyways, my day went pretty well! tuesdays are my lab days, and today i had both microbio and organic chem lab. it was lots of work.

in micro, we swabbed for our normal flora, which is like certain types of bacteria we all have in our bodies that do not cause disease. so... i had to swab the palm of my hand, my throat, and my nose... those last two were not enjoyable. and then we had to do plate streaking. you know how scientists grow bacteria cultures in a petri dish? yeah, we're doing that. i don't even know if i swabbed myself properly but oh well.

then, i had organic chemistry lab this afternoon, and i was in there for about three hours. we were like separating acids and bases. it was kinda fun ig, but i still don't like chemistry..

honestly, working in a lab is so overwhelming to me. there's just too much to think about! you have to be precise with measurements, there's so many dangerous chemicals, labwear is overstimulating to wear after a while, and i just have never liked it lol.

before i got online, i was working on a report for bible class. i'm sooo not wanting to do it but unfortunately it's due tomorrow so i gotta lock in.

ALSO!!! i realized yesterday that i only have like three weeks of school left before winter break. like that's insane!!! i'm so excited tho, i hope i can finish the semester strong. i'm lowkey worried abt how i will do in ochem tho..  (ó﹏ò｡)

hopefully i have more free time tomorrow, because i'm thinking about going home for a little while. but what have you been up to?

- nara ❤︎

entry one

hello hello!! welcome to my first official blog post. wow, my first actual blog post outside of spacehey.. i'm quite excited!!

honestly, i wanted to wait until my page was complete to do this, but i feel like starting the blog now will motivate me to finish working on my main page lol.

anyways, i plan to use this place to post about the happenings in my life. i'll most likely talk about some of my interests, how i'm feeling, personal site updates, all kinds of random stuff. i'm thinking i'll post at least once a week? maybe more if i'm feeling interesting.

i know this was a short post, but idk what else to say. i will post later, stay tuned~!
