Update | Where I've Been + What I've Been Doing

Even though I know this a book blog, it always makes me really happy to be able to connect with my readers behind the screen. I haven't written an update post in a while, so here is my attempt at coming back from a semi-long hiatus to write a post about where I've been and what I've been doing. Hope you guys enjoy it.

Where I've Been

Since my last update post, I finally finished high school! I graduated on June 21st with my twin sister, Kristina. Right before graduation, I left to take a 10 day trip to Japan. Our first stop was the city of Tokyo, the capital of Japan. It had been on my bucket list to go to Japan for years now since I had been learning the Japanese language for three years now.

What I've Been Doing

This summer, I've been working two jobs to save up for college. I know I shouldn't have signed up for so many things, especially during the summer before I head to college, but I was interested in too many things to just settle with one! Ever have that moment in a store where you like the look of two things and can't decide what to get, so you buy both of them? 

Other than working, my off days have been super chill. I've spent them catching up on blog posts and hanging out with friends who I won't see in college. 

I've also started writing for a new website called Frolic. Frolic is an entertainment site with articles for booklovers by booklovers. It is meant to provide fun and intriguing articles about books and pop culture. I am so excited to be a contributor because lately I've been in a blogging slump and writing for them has encouraged me to be more creative and flamboyant. Earlier in June, I wrote an article about my favorite bookish tattoos from Instagram. Read it here! 

I have another article coming out today about books that will make you care about the environment. You can read it here! Finally, I was able to bridge the gap between my love for the environment and my love of books. 

I move in for college during the last week of August, so I'm trying to schedule a lot of content for you guys in the meantime. However, as college comes around the corner you will be hearing less of me throughout the school year. Thankfully, I have two wonderful co-bloggers (Yingchao and Gabby) to help lighten the load and provide unique content. I want to thank you all for supporting my blog and any of my other social media platforms. Talk to you real soon!
