MUNDANE MAGIC ☆ 48

December 1, 2023

★ I put up my decorations the other day and even though I don’t like the holiday/Christmas season I’ve been trying to embrace it. Having the fairy lights of the Christmas tree on whilst I read and drink a cuppa of tea in a cozy blanket with a sleepy Lucy tucked away next to me is pure bliss!

☆ TAEYEON – To. X

★ I’ve been feeling very creative lately. I’ve started working on some secret projects that I hope to accomplish in 2024, already setting goals for next year! It’s been a while since I’ve felt this inspired to create outside of my blog. Hopefully, I can make all my creative dreams come true!

☆ hot cocoa ~ a winter animal crossing lofi mix

★ Spotify released their end-of-the-year Wrapped the other day. What were everyone’s top artist, song, and album of the year?

I exclusively listen to music on Apple Music because I’ve been using it since high school back when I had an iPod video (remember those?) so years of my music is on there and I don’t want to lose anything, lol! However, Apple Music did release their Replay’23 so I thought I would share. My top artist was NewJeans, my top song was ATEEZ – HALAZIA, and my top album was DRP IAN ~ Dear Insanity… which also surprised me because this album was released in October! haha

☆ ATEEZ – Crazy Form

★ Happy December first! The end of the year always flies by, doesn’t it? I know this month will probably be gone in the blink of an eye, especially with the holiday rush. Try to savor this month as much as possible, remember to take breaks, spend time with loved ones, and don’t be too hard on yourself if you don’t have time to get everything done. Happy Holidays!

      I keep them up all year around certain parts of my room but always forget about them! ????

      I’m currently reading The Return by Rachel Harrison and enjoying it so far but I’m only a few chapters in. I also just posted what I read in November so you might want to read that post next. ♥

    I’m happy to hear you’ve been embracing your creative side! I love being creative so much, it makes me so happy, and it makes me even happier to see what everyone else creates too! I am also planning what I want 2024 to be like, both on my blog and within my own life, because this year was far too rough on my mental health and I know I can’t take another one like it – and I’m really excited for all the things I have planned already! I can’t wait to see what secret projects you have planned ☺️

✨🪸🧜🏻‍♀️ It’s the final day of t ✨🪸🧜🏻‍♀️ It’s the final day of the mermaid readathon! Thank you so much for hosting this readathon @thebrightsidegirl! I had so much fun reading these mermaid/island/ocean/underwater books! I also enjoyed making these mermaid themed flat lays for the photo challenges and can’t wait until next year! Swipe to see all the books I read and the mermaid treasures I collected! 🧜🏻‍♀️🪸✨

📖 Day 14: Fave mermaid read
Technically, my favorite read wasn’t a mermaid book but an island book 😆 Beauty Queens by Libba Bray was my favorite read during this readathon! It’s about a group of pageant girls who get stranded on a mysterious island. I listened to the audiobook and was blown away! The author narrates the entire book and does different voices for each of the characters in the book, and there are a lot of characters! Highly recommend the audiobook! I’m not a fan of the cover though, it looks like a smutty book 😂🙈 Have you read Beauty Queens? 👸🏻

Stay tuned for a mermaid readathon recap blog post which I’ll be posting on my website later this week! If you participated in this readathon, what was your favorite read?🧜🏻‍♀️

🦀 Day 12: Ocean creature
How cute is this cookie! I was gifted this crab sugar cookie on my birthday because I’m a Cancer 😆 but I thought it would be perfect for today’s photo challenge!

I just started the second book in the Emily Windsnap series, Emily Windsnap and the Monster from the Deep. I’m assuming based on the title, there will be some sort of ocean creature involved, we will see! 🧜🏻‍♀️

🧜🏻‍♀️ Day 11: Mermaid in the title
Last year, I wanted to read The Mermaid from Jeju by Sumi Hahn but didn’t get the chance to. So, this year one of my goals during this mermaid readathon is to finish this book! Have any of you read this novel?

🧜🏼‍♂️ Day 9: Merman
I didn’t think I was going to have a picture for this one but when I opened the book “Mermaids, Sirens and Selkies: Myths and Legends“ by Jean Menzies I was surprised to see that the first story was about a merman! 😂
