What I Watched
SheHulk Attorney At Law
I feel like this series has been on forever and yet there’s still no plot! But to be honest I’ve been enjoying this series. Out of all the Marvels series, this one actually feels like a mini-series, unlike all the other shows that felt like one long film broken into parts. There are a lot of fun cameos and Tatiana Maslany is perfect as SheHulk! I will say that I prefer the SheHulk character over her human character but I love how she breaks the fourth wall, it’s fun! The main problem of this series is the bad writing. Some stories don’t make sense or contradict what was said in a previous episode. Also, I’m tired of seeing shows of women hate on men especially when the men are written so badly, like in this show. It’s one thing to write in a few awful men but another to make ALL the men in the series horrible, just to hate on.
Thor: Love and Thunder
Another fun watch. I’m not the biggest Thor fan but I enjoy his character. I thought there would be more Thor x Guardians of the Galaxy adventures before he left them their team but whatever. I loved the villain, Gorr. He was creepy and his reasoning for turning evil made sense. But, I’m sick of seeing little kids in the MCU! I don’t know about you all but I’m not someone who wants to see the baby Avengers, or whatever they call the younger Avengers. I think what makes the MCU so amazing is the phenomenal acting and from what I’ve seen most of the younger actors aren’t that great at acting, yet. What are your thoughts?
Bee and Puppycat
I’ve been a fan of Bee and Puppycat since its first episode on Youtube. But the handling of this show has been a mess! It’s been through so many makeovers and changes, I feel bad for the creator and the show. I enjoyed the original show and this Netflix remake is cute but I’m not too crazy about the world-building outside of Bee and Puppycat, it feels strange and less about Bee and Puppycat which the show is about. But anyways, if you like shows like Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Sailor Moon, and Studio Ghibli then you’ll enjoy this series, the amount of Studio Ghibli references they make is ridiculous.

Things I Did
Gave Lucy A Haircut
A week ago, I gave my 8-year-old Pomeranian, Lucy, a haircut and she looked so cute! I first bathed her with a purple shampoo (because she’s a blonde) and detangling conditioner, to moisturize and smooth her fluffy coat. Then, I blow-dried her for 30-40 minutes because Pomeranians have a lot of hair. I then used these dog cutting shears and comb and snipped away! This video helped me a lot! It’s not perfect but I’m happy and gave me a chance to bond even more with Lucy! 🐶💖
Started Studying Korean (again)
Since leaving South Korea, I’ve been neglecting my Korean language studies. Since I don’t have a major reason (besides watching K-dramas, variety shows, and listening to K-pop) pushing me to learn Korean I’m not as motivated to keep learning Korean. When I lived in Korea, I was fully immersed in the atmosphere which made me improve my Korean quickly but now I don’t have that access. I will be going back to South Korea one day and instead of starting Korean from scratch, I want to pick up from where I was. or better. I’ve been going through my Korean books and reading each page and making sure that I understand everything in all my Korean language books. It’s funny because as I’ve been rereading and relearning everything it’s surprising to see what my brain remembers. If you have any study or language learning tips please let me know.
What I Bought
Splatoon 3
I’ve been loving the new Splatoon game! The addition of lockers is really cute. Once I’ve finished the entire story mode I’ll make a review on Splatoon 3.
Things I Love
Pumpkin Spice Lattes
The amount of iced pumpkin spice (oat milk) lattes I’ve consumed this month is ridiculous but my tummy is enjoying it! 🎃
Ooblets
I feel like I’ve talked so much about this game already so I won’t mention it anymore! Go and read my game review on Ooblets here if you want to learn more about this adorable game.
Low Ab Floor Workout Videos
I stopped doing floor exercises a long time ago because I hated them. Back when I did Blogilates workouts (I followed the monthly workout calendar) I would dread when I had to perform the floor exercises because of repetitiveness and holding certain positions for a long duration of time so I just decided to give up on floor exercises altogether, and Blogilates.
I’ve recently started to implement floor exercises into my workout routine. I follow this 15-minute low ab and this 10-minute low ab workout, I love this Youtube channel. I really enjoy that the videos start right away with the workouts and that nobody chatters you off which was the main reason why I stopped Blogilates videos. haha
HASK Biotin Boost Thickening Conditioner
I mentioned this conditioner about a month ago in one of my weekly Friday posts and said I would write a review, which I will! However, next month is Blogtober so my posts are Halloween-themed and a review on this conditioner won’t fit the Halloween mold. So, unfortunately, you’ll have to wait until November for a beauty review. But I’ll say that I adore this condtioner and it’s been working and making my thin curls thicker and stronger! Hey, maybe I’ll purchase the matching shampoo and do a duo review.
Manes by Mell
When I first started my Curly Girl Hair Journey a lot of videos by Manes by Mell came up. However, because Mell used doesn’t follow the CGM I never watched her videos. But now as I’m no longer following the CGM I’ve been binge-watching her videos. Mell is a curly hair specialist so she knows her stuff about all things curly and wavy hair. I even followed her pigtails cut and curtain bangs tutorials. If you have wavy/curly hair I highly recommend her Youtube channel!

How was your month?
We watched the first few episodes of She-Hulk, but weren’t entirely convinced by it! Perhaps we should pick it up again…
Yeah, I’m not taking She-Hulk too seriously at this point. I believe there are only 2 episodes left and there still isn’t much of a storyline going on. I don’t know where the show is going but I’m curious to see how they end it. haha ♥
