"the world's happy waiting, doors yellow, broken, blue" September/October RECAP

 


Hello all!


So sorry i am late with my post this week, i decided to focus on cleaning my room instead of writing a blog post oop- 

A clean room meant that i could focus more on NaNo but that is for another post :D 

Let's get to it shall we?

Other News From Around The Blogosphere 


There's a Shared WIP tag that will be going on throughout the month of November! 

NaNoWriMo is hitting the blogosphere and there really isn't much news lol 





I am actually participating in NaNo this year. I've started a new collection and i'll say that writing is going really well and i'm excited to share my progress at the end of the month! 



Life's honestly been kinda sucky lately. Especially all that's going on with the election. All i will say about it is that we need to pray for our country and that everything turns out alright. 

In other news, i opened up an Etsy shop! With an unexpected technical difficulty after it opened, i can now say that i am back in business and ready to ship out books!! I would really love it if my book could get around :)

And now a special shoutout to something that i discovered at the end of October and has basically consumed my every waking hour since then. 

Julie and the Phantoms. 

AKA my new obsession :D 

Its a Netflix Original and there's only 9 episodes out right now. And i am being completely honest right now. I've watched the show 7 times now. The music in the show is the only thing i'm listened to and tbh i've memorized most of the dialogue :) 

Its brought me a lot of happiness that i haven't felt in a long time and its really amazing. If you don't have Netflix, you should definitely stream the album then :D 

Also just look at these faces and tell me they aren't the cutest things ever 




Tell me how life is treating you right now? I'd love to chat!

  2. love this post! this past week's been not great (election stuff which caused anxiety and exhaustion)...and finals are next week, but it's ok. the leaves are finally starting to change, and i'm loving the autumn vibes (even tho it's 70 degrees here *sobs*).

    currently obsessed with the x-files (on season 2!) and rewatching brooklyn 99 (for like the sixth time this year, lol). also my suite mate & i randomly decided to watch twilight (just finished the 2nd movie!), and are thoroughly enjoying making sarcastic commentary (although hot take the second movie wasn't terrible?) ♥️

  6. Ah yeah, I've listened to Wonder a lot. And because of this post I listened to Rain and liked it. I've never heard of someone watching a show seven times, but I'm super curious about it now. What's it about? Good luck on NaNo! I'm excited for your update at the end of the month!
