Take what works and leave the rest

Half of the year just went by in the blink of an eye. 2023, liked all the years before it, started with fireworks, enthusiastic cheers, and equally enthusiastic whoops and yells. Now it’s early August and I’ve been hearing some AM radio stations playing Christmas songs. 🎄 At this rate, Christmas will be in the air by September and I’m not complaining. Hohohoho!

Aside: I spent the last week of July away from work. Not for a vacation. Not for a grand birthday celebration. More for hibernation. 😆 I slept early and slept in most of those days. It was DELICIOUS. Sleeping/napping is always delicious. 😁

Same great taste, dot net version

It has been raining the past couple of days during this long weekend. Sleeping early and sleeping in? DELICIOUS. How’s your weekend going?

I know. I have resurfaced after many months of radio silence and after suddenly dropping the .com, swapping it with .net, too! What other crazy things have I been doing? So glad you asked because there’s really nothing new, except… oh! A a book, a movie, and a few kdramas. Take these as recommendations, if you will. I did drop some kdramas, like “Marriage, Not Dating” and “The Secret Romantic Guesthouse.” But the ones I kept watching are mentioned here. I hope you enjoy reading about them! 🙂

It’s me. Hi, I’m the problem. It’s me.

So! We’re almost halfway through November. Almost but not quite. How’s everyone feeling? I’ve always wanted to experience fall and winter, but I only get rainy days and cool nights this side of the globe. Inflation is a pain in the ass and purchasing power is a joke.

December can’t come soon enough. But hey! Forward march!

October things: Kdrama romcoms and thrillers + my first ever published story

This month was an abysmal one for blogging. There’s a reason behind it but I think it’s best saved for another time. On the bright side: While being an absentee blogger my writing side projects were for the most part going okay. There really are clients who are so hard to deal with when it comes to payments. Aside from problematic clients Iím proud to say that my writing (copywriting and fiction writing) has been prolific. I’m sure Grammarly would be proud of me too. My initial plan back in September was to focus on my kdrama website, Ramyeon & Reviews. I had my content calendar all ready for October. I had so much fun searching for and piecing together blog topics! But things happened and I had to push back all the fun and creepy posts. Who’s up for Nightmarish November instead?

It feels SO GOOD as I type this down. It feels like forever since I last blogged. I figured Iíd drop by here and fill you in with what made October worth it.

Things I loved back in August

September is upon us and August pretty much left an impression on me both good and bad. It’s a fresh new month and I am looking forward to a couple of kdramas. I’ve actually written them down on one of my notebooks because I love writing things down. Pen on the paper. Callus on my finger. Old school style. My early millennial self is showing. *blushes furiously*

While August had been fraught with grated nerves and sleeping pills there are still things good things that it left behind. By no means are they weepy, sappy things worthy of Hallmark cards, though. But I guess every other person can relate to them.
