6/10/25 - kewl bandz, local showz & studying
mood: chillin

the other day i found a rlly kewl italian punk band called "reazione", through gifcities of all placez !! they have sum mp3z linked on their archived geocities page (the wayback machine managed 2 archive them thank goodness) & theyre rlly good !! havent heard a lot of their songz yet but so far it seemz like they sing in english but have sum song titlez that are in italian. thinking abt getting one of their cdz from discogz.
turnstile released a new album last week & the record store i go 2 wuz having a listening party for it at 5pm. i texted a friend asking if he wanted 2 go but he said hes never rlly listened 2 them & that according 2 the hardcore sub (yea he usez reddit sumtimez lolz) the new album iz rlly similar 2 their last one. (personally i dont think thatz rlly a bad thing, i havent heard the new album yet but i rlly enjoyed their previous one) basically he wasnt interested in going. i ended up not going bc my mom had work & also id rather go with a friend.

anyway, today he messaged me a poster for an upcoming local show thatz on july 6th & im def interested in going 2 that ^_^ but right now i gotta study bc finalz r coming up, i also gotta study for my permit knowledge test :')

5/29/25 - back from a trip !!
mood: chillin

HII !!!! xDDDD i went on a trip 2 socal 2 visit family & just got back a couple dayz ago ^^ it wuz nice, we didn't go out too much & mostly hung out at their place.
b4 we drove over we went 2 a rlly kewl thrift store called "its a wrap", which i actually found out about on youtube a year-ish ago lol xDDDD they have a bunch of clothez/costumez from diff tv showz & moviez that get donated 2 them from all the major production companiez (warner bros, paramount, nick, disney, etc) after they finish filming & resell them 4 rlly cheap !! i got a longsleeve henley shirt & a kewl sleeveless hoodie :00 it wuz in the womenz area but i think itz more 4 men bc itz kinda baggyish on me lolz TwT thatz alr tho !! i still like it, i think itll b gr8 4 the warmer weather ^_^ if ur ever in socal/burbank i totally recommend checking it out ! they have a bunch of real costumez from diff moviez all around the place.

now i have 2 catch up on homework ;w; might go thrifting on the weekend again also !! :000

5/19/25 - fun weekend ^_^
mood: chillin

went 2 a new goodwill on saturday !! not new as in "just opened" but new as in ive never been 2 it b4 !! it seemed a bit larger & more stocked than the other locationz i mainly go 2. it wuz also in a "wealthier" city/area so i found sum p nice stuff !! if u thrift i totally recommend finding the wealthier areaz near u & going 2 any thrift storez they have ^^ anyway i got a pair of lowrise bootcut jeanz from a brand called 7 for all mankind, which iz apparantly a rlly expensive brand since my mom wuz rlly impressed when i showed them 2 her once we got home xDDDD ngl ive never rlly heard of it b4, i looked on their website & all their jeanz are like $220+ 0-o the pair i found were only $15 !! the waistband wuz a teeny bit tight but i stretched it out overnight & when i put them on 2day they fit gr8 ^_^ i also found a rlly kewl early 2000z hard rock cafe shirt from madrid !! herez wut it lookz like, i wasnt rlly sure abt the dark orange color at first but i didnt h8 it enough 2 leave the shirt behind, it kinda haz sk8punk vibez + i think it would b good 4 the summer :00

i also ordered these jeanz on depop a few dayz ago & they finally came !! theyre soo cute omg !!!! theyre also lowrise bootcutz & the legnth & wash r PERFECT, i think theyre my favorite pair of jeanz i own !!!! xDDDD :000 i wanna b cafeful with them tho bc theyre from a rare deadstock brand & no other pairz exist anywhere 0-o still luv them x33

5/13/25 - the hard part abt thrifting (///n-)
mood: chillin

i went thrifting yesterday & found the cutest lowrise jeanz from a deadstock 2000z brand (itz called "jolt" if ur wondering, therez like no info about it anywhere but i think it wuz sold @ nordstomz ? according 2 a poshmark listing @ least), washed & dried them @ home & while i was folding them i noticed there wuz a freaking rip on one of the inner thighz !? i wuz CRUSHED, therez no way they couldve torn in the wash & there srsly wuz no rip when i tried them on @ the thrift store, i think the fabric in that area wuz just kinda weak & somehow the washing machine or dryer made it worse TnT i literally cried. luckily the tear iz pretty small & isnt in a noticable area so i ordered sum iron on denim repair patchez & im gonna repair them >:0 lowkey this wuz my 1st time thrifting jeanz so now i know (& recommend !) 2 check everywhere 4 unintentional tearz & wear, esp the inner thighz/crotch area TwT

5/2/25 - summer planz !! x33
mood: chillin

woaa itz may !! that meanz summer iz almost here !! xDDDD probz gonna register 4 summer quarter again, bc my mom wantz me 2 TwT sigh. i dont *h8* summer classez but it would b nice 2 have a summer fully free from academicz. then again i usually only take like 1 class during summer quarter anyway so ig itz not that bad, but ill have 2 choose a class thatz easy since the summer quarter movez p fast 0-o

anyway, every summer i make a bucket list of stuff i wanna do & im def gonna do that again this year. def wanna make more zines, & print sum more 2. i also wanna get 2gether with my band & rock out, go 2 sum showz, hang with sum friendz. & go thrifting !! thatd b super awesum xDDDD x33 B )) mayB i could go 2 showz & thrift with friendz also ?? :000

4/8/25 - spring quarter
mood: chillin

spring quarter started yesterday, most of my classez this time around r online, but therez sum hybridz mixed in there also. so far ive been taking 3 classez each quarter but my mom wanted me 2 take 4 this quarter so i wont have 2 do any during the summer so we can go on a vacation with my unclez & my grandma bc shez getting older. i couldnt rlly sign up 4 a 4th tho bc all of the classez i thought abt signing up 4 clashed with the schedulez of the classez i had already picked. so my plan iz that when the summer quarter getz close, ill see if therez a class i can take thatz fully online, like only zoom sessionz & doesnt take place on-campus.

anyway i went thrifting again last week @ the first goodwill i mentioned in my previous blog post. it wuz a lot busier too, but that makez sense since it wuz an afternoon on a saturday. sum of the itemz i sifted thru were still there but sum of them got snapped up also, including that killstar top lol. which iz alr, like i said it wuz 2 big 4 me anyway :') i did find & get a black & white striped tshirt tho, it fitz rlly well !! idk if it wuz new stock or i just didn't notice it last time. i def think i found better stuff when i went in march, tho. that black crushed velvet skirt i got Totally would have gotten snatched up by sum1 if i hadn't got 2 it first, the top too 0-o xDDDD
