It's Friday which means another My Favorite post! If this is your first My Favorite post, it's a prompt ran by my favorite person ever, Becca where you talk about your favorite thing related to the prompt each week. This week the prompt is favorite Easter candies!
I don't really do a big thing for Easter since I got older but I do enjoy some Easter candies. My absolute favorites probably have to be Whopper Robin's Eggs.
I'm a sucker for Whoppers in general because they are little balls of joy, but the Easter ones are even more adorable! They are pastel little eggs and they are so dang cute!
Since this is a short post, I took inspo from Becca's post and also decided to talk about Easter candies I dislike! While I do have a few that I just dislike (jellybeans, I'm looking at you) I have to be blunt. PEEPS.
ARE.
THE.
WORST.
They take the greatness of marshmallows and make them GROSS! I will die on this hill. Don't @ me.
Other than that, I think I'm decently okay with other Easter candies. I mean it's candy, what's not to love. That's all for this week! If you decide to join in on this, be sure to leave your link down below!
I'm back with another My Favorite post! It's been a hot minute since we've done one of these posts and I really want to get back into them because not only are they super fun, they also help out my friend Becca who hosts these! So if you decide to join these posts, make sure to check her blog out for the prompts every week!
This week's prompt is my favorite thing about spring! I'm a person who can never decide what season is their favorite (although I lean a bit closer to winter) so I love each season for what it brings.
For me springtime is the best time to pull out a cute contemporary and head outside for a long read. I also am a huge fan of those April showers and May flowers!
Already on week three and this time, I actually had an answer as soon as I read the prompt. And then I found out the song technically came out in 2015 and I am just super late to the party. So this week we are talking about music videos of 2018 and I have to be completely honest here. I am not a huge music video watcher nowadays. I used to be. I remember having three hours of just non-stop music videos before class in high school and I would do my makeup in the living room just to watch the new videos.
But in the age of Netflix and Hulu, I haven't really been a watcher of many music videos unless they show up on a Buzzfeed article. Maybe that should change.
So originally, I was gonna pick Russian Roulette by my absolute QUEENS, Red Velvet. I don't know how I just found this video but clearly I need to be a bigger fan because this video is like 3 years old! But still I'm linking it because....we all need this video in our lives.
Lucky for me though, my queens delivered another amazing video for their song Power Up that came out this year and guys it's just so great!!
Like...can you not imagine D.Va blasting this in her Meka while she's shooting down bad guys?
Also worth mentioning is this parody of Power Up which I just couldn't stop laughing at.
As an honorable mention, I feel like I have to shout out Ariana Grande's "God is a Woman" because it's just that good. Like, she took so much female imagery and SHE DID THAT THING.
Okay, I'm done talking about music videos. So now it's your turn. What was your favorite music video of 2018? Let's chat about it. And make sure to check out Becca's post here and find some other amazing blogs and music videos! Always, Raineedayze
This month I wanted to try something new and also support my best friend Becca as she is now the host of "My Favorite", a weekly blog prompt challenge! So, if you haven't yet checked her blog out, definitely go to it as she is just so awesome and then you can also join us in this really cool blog post challenge and we can all follow and read each other's stuff and life would just be great... okay? This week the prompt is My Favorite Book I Read This Summer. This summer I read about 27 (?) books. I am only counting June - August books even though technically "summer" began for me in May. I think my absolute favorite book I read this summer was probably Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut.
I've always wanted to read Vonnegut and in July, I went on a pretty big binge of reading books that I had wanted to but been intimidated by. Slaughterhouse-Five was just incredible and I absolutely loved Vonnegut's writing. That book just got me in so many emotions and I just can't describe how moved I was by the book. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. His writing is so lyrical but amusing while still throwing some heavy feels at you. I also know his books do tie in a bit to each other, so I'm really excited to read more of his work.
Overall, I think it was a shoo-in for my best book of the summer and definitely one of the top books ever so I'm happy! What was your favorite read this summer? Let's chat about it and make sure to check out Becca's original post here for the prompt list and to find other cool blogs! Always, Raineedayze
