APRIL RECAP
It was not easy. It was worse than March.
I got sick and I found out I have something - things - I need to take care of.
I am extremely anxious about my health and it is affecting every other part of my life. I am sure I will be able to go through this, but right now it’s just hard to be normal.
My mind was elsewhere, but I need to focus. I have places to go and things to learn, so I will try my very best to put this aside and work on myself. April was filled with challenges, but I have reasons to celebrate too.
April goals: here.
Major goals
I was able to wake and get up at 5 am - A win!
I still can’t let go of my phone before bed most of the days - Sad!
I was able to prepare for IELTS, but only 1 lesson. - I need to work on that.
I finally chose a specialization program - another win!
I didn’t find a scientific journal to publish my article on Film History, cause I didn’t try to find one
All year goals
April was better than March when it comes to my healthy lifestyle area. I still need to pay more attention to my eating habits, but it is another win.
Productivity area was not how I liked it to be. I failed some major goals and that bothers me a lot.
I also failed the Elegance and femininity part. I guess was too depressed to take care of myself.
My witchy side also suffered a lot. I had no motivation to keep this habit.
We had some family reunions this month, but I didn’t want to be with them; I just wanted to be on my own. Another failure here.
I spend lot of my time watching series and football this month.
I was able to read 2 books. A win.

Life Update and April 2024 Reading Recap
So. April happened.
You may have noticed I barely posted this month. This is the first time since I relaunched my blog in 2021 that I have NOT posted a single review in a month. I feel a bit guilty about that, but April was a roller coaster of a month with lots of good and bad mixed in.
The Good: First, I started off the month with a visit to my family in NC for nearly two weeks. And then I…

Fresh finds - April
Deja Vu - TXT. Another fun pop punk banger from the pop punk banger boys.
Heya - IVE. Another sexy royal song from the sexy royal queens.
Red Rover - Yuqi. Surprise villain song from the cutest member of (G)I-DLE. Expected mostly Could It Be style songs from her (which I enjoyed, but not as much as Red Rover).

Musicals, The Moon, & Good Fellowship // April 2024
Hello everyone, I hope you’re having a lovely morning, afternoon, or evening! This year seems to be speeding up suddenly, but I think that just happens after the first few months. This month was not entirely bad; I would venture to say none of the months this year were. However, I feel like this month has been the best so far, like a breath of fresh air. My word for April 2024 is “refreshing.”

April Recap
April started off with the plan to soft launch my Membership pages. I have had both for a while with little traction but wanted to concentrate on them a little more.
Membership soft launch
I took some notes in various other pages, and saw everything from artists posting a few times a week to a few posting only a few times a month. I also noticed that artists only had a one or two tiers when only offering artwork; any additional tiers were for physical items like stickers and prints.
Stickers!
I started looking into doing stickers in March, so I had already purchased a small test run of stickers from Vinyl Disorder, based on some research done by RedHalftone.
Social Media Marketing
They came out great, and I got them on a really good deal. However despite perceived interest, I haven’t sold many. Admittedly my social media skills aren’t the greatest, so I did additional research. Between several artists and some articles from Later Media, I’ve gotten the gist of social media marketing of my own products.
I also started the process of revamping my Threadless store, which has had zero sales due to the lack of new designs and zero marketing.
Art Work
Art output was pretty light during April. I worked on revamping my cyberskull line. In the process I made a few gifs on Giphy of my cyberskulls, which was fun and pretty easy with their built in tools.
I did one DTIYS by Sveta Shubina. It was a lot of fun, and I’m using it in my various pinup-specific pages.

Rose Recaps 2023 - Japan
So, because I have a hard time making big lists and choosing favourites, this my version of a superlative post, by country.
The one that had me at the first frame
If It’s With You | Kimi to Nara Koi wo Shite Mite mo
As soon as Amane appeared on screen I was gone.
This damaged but confident boy had my heart from the beginning. But it was Ryuji that ended up with a bigger piece by the end. The way he saw Amane’s mask from the beginning and just went – “you don’t need to do that with me”.
And the way he considered Amane’s feelings even when he wasn’t sure what to do or how to respond, or how he was feeling about all of it, was just beautiful to witness and at certain points kinda reminded of Ida.
Favourite Moment: Amane confessing and running away. Because visually it's so striking. The way he's running from the light that is Ryuji.
The one that was perfect and I never saw coming.
I Cannot Reach You | Kimi ni wa Todokanai
I think that by now at least some people know how I feel about Japanese BL. I love it so much. And for me it’s always about the characters. Whether they are the embodiment of chaos, like Aoki or they are just incredible complex and empathic humans like Ida. - Yes, I’m using Kieta Hatsukoi every chance I get- I just love the way all these characters are written and portrait.
I loved these 2 boys in equal measure all throughout the show. I might have a soft spot for Yamato, but that’s only because pining boys are my weakness.
Yamato’s back and forth in his own head about what to do would be annoying to me in any other show, but it was so well done, and we were privy to his thought process throughout that it just made me feel for him deeply.
And Kakeru learning about Yamato’s feelings right away in the first episode was a great choice, because he gave the show time to make the reciprocity more believable.
Favourite Moment - The exchange of gifts at the door. I love the nervousness that the two of them are feeling in this moment.
The one where I gave in.
My Beautiful Man S2 & Eternal
Confession time. This was not love at first season for me. I don’t argue quality overall and much less the acting of the show, but it just didn’t click for me.
There were some truly great moments in the first season but there was a disconnect between my heart and my brain. This happens to me sometimes. Like I watch something that is objectively good but it doesn’t reach me.
That all changed with the second season and the film. I finally connect with Hira. Don't ask me why, I don't fully understand myself, but it happened right at the beginning of the season. I think perhaps it was because I started seeing more from Kiyoi pov, because before I was absolutely clueless about what he saw in Hira in the first place. Sorry if that sounds harsh.
I don't blame the show for this, as I said, I think all the elements are there, it just didn't connect for me.
Also, the film was gorgeous to watch. Several moments (specially the sequence where the gif is from) were so well shot and edited that I'm happy I went in already with a positive mindset.
Favourite Moment: The one from the gif. I'm a sucker for a drastic visual change when the moment calls for it.
The one that had me question if watching it was good for my mental health.
Tokyo in April is | Shigatsu no Tokyo wa
Ok. I love this show. I love Ren. But this was a hard watch for me. Every week I had a struggle between two sides of me.
- Don’t watch it. It will be sad and you will be sad because of it.
- But the last one was sad so I need to watch it to see if there’s happy.
- Why not just wait?
- Because I started already, so now I can’t wait.
- But in this case binging is best. Cause for sure the ending is happy so you won’t be sad for long.
- Yeah, but I need to see more now. And there’s a new episode waiting for me.
- Fine. Just press play.
After the episode.
- I really shouldn’t watch this one live.
(all this repeats the following week)
It was beautifully acted, there were some outstanding moments, the past was as tastefully done as it could be given the subject matter, and in the end my heart of full, but slightly damaged with the process.
Favourite Moment: Ren finding out Kazuma had been looking for him.
The one with all the magic.
What Did You Eat Yesterday? | Kinou Nani Tabeta? S2
I already wrote how this show made me feel in another post. So I’ll just say this.
EVERYONE NEEDS TO WATCH THIS SHOW. NOW.
If you haven’t, stop reading this and go. GO. NOW. Start.
There is magic here and you don’t even know.
Favourite Moment: ALL OF THEM. But really this one.
Shiro. Just Shiro.
Well, I'll try to write the next one in these next couple of days. Wish me luck.
Thanks for reading💜

Another month, another badly edited video 💙
April has been very generous - but then it changed its mind and gave me bad weather and adulting! <;

Happy May!
I've finished all my finals and I'm free for the summer! I didn't do the best academically (fuck Biology), and I got my first C's for the semester. My job was also pretty hectic, so I didn't have the study routine that worked for me in the past.
That being said, I'm very excited for summer. I'm really looking forward to the break, only having one class, and pretty much just turning my brain off all summer.

April 2023 Reading Recap
Well, April was a bit of a bust when it came to reading. I hit a major reading slump this month and was also super busy and stressed due to work and planning my sister’s bridal shower, which led to very few books being read.
In April, I read only read 3 books. I’m currently super behind on my reading goals for the year, but trying not to focus on that as there is still plenty of time to catch…
