whoever styled taemin deserves a raise because holy shit

finished <fated not to meet, vol 1> by ei eijou vol 2 is waiting for me, but i wanted to reread vol 1, and i’m once again reminded this is SUCH a good rivals to lovers office romance. i forgot there were a lot of smut scenes though 😅 #jinreadsthings << haven’t used this tag in a bit lol

기분도 좋고… 날씨도 좋고… ☺️☺️

오늘 바다 보러 가야겠다 🌊

Yearning #apothecarydiaries

헐 우유니 오늘 반말만 했음??? 꿈꾸고 있는 줄... omg uyun only used informal language with jinhyeong in today's update???? i thought i was dreaming lol

i’m… free???????? there’s a lot of cleaning to do but i actually don’t have any teaching or researching or writing that needs to be done????????? this is SURREAL

in addition to it being an absolutely hilarious series, i think another reason i've been enjoying <tamon's b-side> so much is because the art style is so reminiscent of 90s/00s shoujo #TamonsBSide #多聞くん今どっち

god if this hasn't been me lately #HauntedByDesire #귀태

oh my god it's SO nice to not have any giant tasks on my plate anymore 😭

finally done… and i'm going to pray tomorrow goes okay… and then crash once the week ends since i still have to teach on friday lmao rip

this 2hr guest lecture i have to give on topics i don't know very much about is REALLY testing my pronunciation skills in a number of different languages 💀 i'm only confident in 2/4 of these languages... as for the other two... one i have no respect for and the other is going to be... something

nooooo the way today's update for <열 해> is making me really anxious about the season finale 😭😭😭

i love them so much 😭😭😭😭😭 #열해 #10YearsBL

omg jiho 😭😭😭😭😭 #열해 #10YearsBL

after i finish prepping this 2hr guest lecture i have to give tomorrow, i won't have any HUGE things to worry about for a bit, meaning i can FINALLY breathe and focus more on games and things 😭😭😭😭😭😭

awwww these two! this bl ended up being way funnier than i thought it'd be— and sweeter? i was seriously expecting it to be much darker hahah #밤은부드러워라

their faces 💀 #시맨틱에러 #SemanticError

truly blessed with long haired jaeyoung who's down bad for sangwoo #SemanticError #시맨틱에러 (sw: hyung, wait... jy: babe, you're so sexy right now)

guiding hazard, semantic error side stories, and other bl that just ended but i won't name updates every 10 days on the same day, but That BL's ending pissed me off so badly that i didn't get to read the other two updates 💀

commenter on the latest update of <guiding hazard> (from last week lol welp), you are SO real for this (tr: really hoping kang jaeha has a gruesome death)

redacting a couple things but jesus fucking chrIST I'M DONE (well, almost... i need to wait for the final okay from my advisor, but what matters is all my drafts have been written and compiled in a single document... i'll be free... soon...............)

okay, i seriously need to let go of my completionist tendencies and earnestly start reading on lezhin kr, because it's *really* dawning on me just how much of a rip-off lezhin us is 🥴 240C = $6.99 25C (basically 250) = 5000 won (which is a little over $3)

i need lezhin to explain their reasoning for essentially scamming english readers??? on the us platform, if you reach the 30-day streak, you get 50 bonus coins that are only valid for 24 hours. on the kr platform, it's the same reward BUT the bonus coins are valid for 72 hours?? make it make sense

absolute idiots who only know how to say ridiculous or stupidly cheesy things, i love them #PureIntentions

man, i want to talk to the translator/localizer for this series because chanran is so fucking funny omg (but also so curious how they came to this decision from the original???) #BrokenBloodline

lies on the floor, it's done... the conclusion is done... oh my god, after editing a few more things in other chapters and getting feedback on the conclusion, this fucking dissertation will FINALLY BE DONE

mfw i find out that phd regalia for my university is 900 us dollars. $900??????? how much is it to rent it then wtf

lol checked how many works i've cited in this dissertation... so far, it's over 200 💀

hrm, still need to read latest kr updates for guiding hazard and semantic error side stories, but maybe i'll save those as treats for breaks, since i need to get back to writing

teasingly asking for a goodnight kiss with zero expectations, only for mc to actually give one, to the li's surprise ahaha #밤은부드러워라

this manhwa really ended up being WAY funnier than i thought it'd be (tr: we're not friends… how does it look to you?) #밤은부드러워라

3 single-spaced pages written so far today... need to keep going to finish this stupid conclusion 💀 the end is close though...........

i'm so excited for this one, especially knowing that it's by a nonbinary mangaka

i don't even think korea has physical volumes of <reunion> oh my god

WE'RE FUCKING WINNING OH MY GOD

wait <the hounds of sisyphus> is back? lol why did i think it was returning in june or something

my friend is at sakura con and already doing the lord's work getting me my requests lol

since coming back from the conference, my cat would get upset with me whenever i left the apartment, and she'd voice this loudly when i returned. came back from work not too long ago, and she not only made sure to yell but that it also happened while she was on my lap and in my face 😵‍💫
