What's Going on in my life + October Posting Goals

Happy October everyone! It's officially fall, and I've been enjoying the chillier weather and everything it brings. As many of my regular readers might have noticed, I was relatively inactive with this blog during September. Now that I've finally settled into life in Oslo, I'm ready to get back into regular blogging. I won't go all out like I have previously, as I'd prefer to ease myself back in. Please be patient with me! :)

What's going on in my life + August Posting Goals

I'm freeeeaaaking out, y'all. I'm moving to Norway in less than a week, haven't practiced Norwegian at all this summer (besides very short conversations with my boyfriend), and am generally unsure of what I have to do. It's exciting and awesome but also frightening... and I'm sad that I won't see my family for awhile, of course! But life is full of stuff like that, I guess. Oh well. Anyway- I've tried to get the next couple of weeks' reviews written up in preparation for my busy transitioning time! I'm here for another 6 days, but please forgive me if I'm slow with replying to comments or anything~

What's going on in my life + July Posting Goals

Hey everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful June, and I hope July is even better! It's time for my traditional (I've done it the past 3 months, so it's a very serious tradition obviously) update on my life + what I plan to post this month! I've decided to cut back a little on posting, down from roughly every other day to 3x a week. It won't be a huge step down, but it will give me a bit more time to focus on each review, and will be less stressful.

Anyway, my liiiife. None of my friends are in my hometown this summer, so I've just been kind of working 2-4 days a week and hanging out with my family... and internetting. Work has been fine, it's been nice to see old coworkers and nice to get money! I've been slowly getting back into running as well, though I'm pathetically out of shape at the moment.

As many of you know, I got my wisdom teeth removed on Wednesday! It's been pretty decent actually, but until today I had trouble talking, smiling, or opening my mouth widely. I had to miss work on Saturday and Sunday because of that, since most of my job involves interacting with customers and being super friendly. I wouldn't have lasted more than 10 minutes lol u_u

Buuut, exciting news! I'm currently in a hotel room in Houston, with an appointment at the Norwegian embassy tomorrow morning to see if I can get my residence permit for my year abroad starting in August! Fingers crossed that I didn't screw the application up terribly, because that would be absolutely horrible （；へ：）

So yea, as for my posting plans:

June Upcoming Posts & What's going on in my life

Hiii!! It's SUMMER!!! I'm so happy and excited for the summer! I'm really in need of a break and some relaxation time, so this is really great timing. I will be working a decent amount over the next two months, but besides that I will just be relaxing and running and eating too much, so I've set quite high goals for blogging this month! I'm basically preparing for my year abroad starting in August, when I will be attending the University of Oslo for the next academic year for my 3rd year of University. I will finally be in a normal distance relationship with my boyfriend, and I will hopefully become fully fluent in Norwegian! I'm very excited but nervous for that :) Have any of you been to Oslo? I'm actually there right now  spending some time with my boyfriend after our exams, we'll be away from each other for a couple of months, but that's okay. We've gone through much longer. :)

I have a very secret but exciting post coming up that I've been thinking about for awhile now, so look out for that in the couple of weeks! Other things I'm very excited about include the two large hauls I have coming in from Koreadepart and Testerkorea. If anyone has any comments or suggestions about what they want reviewed, please feel free to let me know!

Upcoming posts & More about me!

Hi everyone! Guess who had their first exam today? Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Anyway, I figured I'd write up a small post 1) about the posts I'm planning to write this month and 2) a bit about me and my life right now! I figured that I haven't really 'personalized' my blog much, in regards to having posts updating y'all about my daily life and such. So-

April Goals ~

Hi everyone! I hope y'all had a good Easter~ I decided to write up a small blog post about my goals for the month, because I would really like to be more organized and get more accomplished with my time.

April Specific Goals
- Five hours of studying/revising per day for my exams after Easter break
- Get more organized with my study abroad situation next year (visa, bank account, classes, accomodation,e tc)

Blog Posts I would like to write

- Lioele Triple the Solution BB Cream Review
- Missha Cho Bo Yang BB Cream Review
- Tony Moly Cats Wink Mascara (#1) Review
- Tony Moly Petite Bunny Gloss Bar (Peach & Cherry) Review
- My Beauty Diary Red Vine Mask Review
- My Beauty Diary Arbutin Whitening Mask Review
- Spring/Summer Wishlist
- Various Haul posts (I'm expecting atleast 4!!) (◡‿◡✿)


Weekly Habits to work on
-Go to the gym 4x a week ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
-Tidy up my room atleast once a week, i.e. do laundry, change bedding, take out trash, dust

Daily Habits to work on
- Hang up clothes at the end of the day
- Drink 3 litres of water
- Do my skincare routine twice a day

The biggest change is probably the cleaning and the gymming, haha. Anyway, I know this isn't very exciting or interesting but I thought I would share my plans with you guys. Are any of you working on making changes to  your life to be more productive? I think small changes are best, rather than trying to radically alter a lot of things at once. At the end of the month I'll revisit my goals to see how productive I was. Wish me luck!! ヽ(＾Д＾)ﾉ
