wine and a kdrama

because dramas and wine go well together

I like Korean dramas. Sometimes I watch them while drinking wine

october tbr/w

October 01, 2019 by Jessie in books, monthly wrap up

Happy October!

I’m one of those people and absolutely love everything about October. It finally gets colder outside and all the leaves change color, I love horror/scary movies and shows and they just seem more fitting when it’s darker outside.

music mondays: oh hey, october

September 30, 2019 by Jessie in music

It’s the first of the month, and instead of telling you the music I’ve been listening to this week I figured that with this month looking to be a death to us all I would tell you my favorite music videos from some of the groups/soloists that I’m super excited for that will be doing comebacks.

bi-weekly roundup // 9.29.19

September 29, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news

I don’t know if it's my busy schedule, or just the time of the year, but it seemed like here wasn’t that much in the way of news these past two weeks until I actually started making the list. It must be because of the amount of music comeback news we’ve gotten in comparison. Lots of casting news.

music mondays: 9.22.19

September 23, 2019 by Jessie in music

I realized I had a lot of videos to talk about for my normal news posts and with this week being a heavy comeback week as well, I thought doing a separate post would be best to keep the regular news post not as long. I’ve also been wanting to incorporate more music centered posts on the blog. I listen to a lot of music that most of my timeline doesn’t and am always wanting to promote it more. Maybe this will become a regular thing? I’ll keep these videos to music related or centered ones, and anything else (such as behind the scenes and interviews with actors) can end up on my regular news posts.

weekly roundup // 9.15.19

September 15, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news

I’m very sporadic on these weekly roundups, and I feel like I’m explaining that every time I post. I’m going to be trying out doing these every other week to see if that fits into my schedule more. I enjoy doing these, because it forces me in a way to really keep on top of what’s out there and I do enjoy that aspect of being able to see what’s going on news wise in Hallyuland.

September TBR/W

September 02, 2019 by Jessie in books, monthly wrap up

How is it already September?

This month FLEW by. I just looked at my last TBR/W and I realized that I accomplished none of it. None. I didn’t read a single page of any of the books for the readathon that I was really excited to participate in. I barely watched dramas. What have I been doing with my life? Well, work and trying to catch up and figure out how to make my life a little less chaotic and still do the things I want, but mostly I’ve been listening to more music and getting more into kpop.

weekly roundup // basically all of august

September 01, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news

I’ve been slacking on updating all the news that I’ve found interesting for the past couple of weeks, between starting back at work (and my life of unlimited free hours went away), the Monsta X concert/Noonas camping trip, and just general life stuff I haven’t been able to find the rhythm of incorporating the news posts and let it slip last month. BUT I have been keeping up with the news this month fairly regularly so I figured I would do a post of all of the especially interesting ones to catch up on everything (and I can clear out all of these bookmarks).

August TBR/W

August 05, 2019 by Jessie in currently watching, books, monthly wrap up

Things have been a little crazy this past week or two and I haven’t actually had a lot of time to sit down and really figure out my TBR/W for the month, so this month I will just stick to written form and forgo doing a video as well.

weekly roundup // 8.4.19

August 04, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news

First week back at work, so I’m sure I missed some news and didn’t get to see them. Especially with twitter being annoying and not showing all my followers on my phone. Makes things harder. I’m moving back to only linking and commenting on castings that I personally care about as opposed to keeping up with all of it. I don’t have much time and I enjoyed that format better. Look in the links section for them.

Four Episodes: In Time With You

July 30, 2019 by Jessie in reviews, four episodes

I’m starting a new series that is much like the First Impressions posts, but dives a little farther into the drama’s episodes without it being a full series review. While I’m not the type of person who subscribes to the “Four Episode” rule, I understand it’s merit for others. With these reviews I will talk about the first four episodes of a series (or first quarter if it’s a shorter one) and discuss whether I will or won’t be continuing on in with the series.

weekly roundup 7.21.19

July 21, 2019 by Jessie in weekly roundup, news

I didn’t realize so much casting news had come out until I started putting it into the section. A lot of fun movies and dramas coming out in the future. It was also a pretty hectic week news wise, even though I was busy and not around to catch everything that popped up there’s a pretty sizeable list.

There was a lot of casting news this week that I didn’t realize until I was putting them into the post. I was fairly busy so I’m sure I missed some major news stories.
