30 Day Haikyuu Challenge: Days 16- Favorite Uniform

September 21, 2017August 10, 2025

It’s day 16 of the 30 Day Haikyuu Challenge and I’m going to share with you guys my favorite uniform! Since this challenge didn’t come with any instructions or anything like that, I’m going to assume they mean  volleyball uniforms and not school uniforms. Though if you want to know, I am…

30 Day Haikyuu Challenge: Days 15- Favorite Animal Representation

September 20, 2017August 10, 2025

I’m failing so hard at this challenge, hopefully I can be a bit more consistent from now on (no promises). I’m not one for excuses, so let’s get this show on the road, shall we… We’re up to day 15 of the 30 Day Haikyuu Challenge and today’s prompt is My Favorite Animal…

30 Day Haikyuu Challenge: Days 10 & 11- Favorite Libero & Favorite Team Captain

September 11, 2017August 10, 2025

Yesterday was my birthday, so I definitely missed writing the Day 10 prompt. Rather than write separate posts for Day 10 and Day 11, I decided to just combine them into one post! Don’t worry, this won’t be a super long post, like the previous challenge posts, this one will…

30 Day Haikyuu Challenge- Day 9: Favorite Setter

September 10, 2017August 10, 2025

30 Day Haikyuu Challenge- Day 8: Favorite Middle Blocker

September 8, 2017August 10, 2025

Well, what can I say, this is going to be a super short post since I already declared my love for middle blockers in Day 6 post. On top of that, I have two favorite characters that both just so happen to be middle blockers and I already wrote about both…

30 Day Haikyuu Challenge- Day 7: Favorite Wing Spiker

September 7, 2017August 10, 2025

We’ve finally reached the set of prompts that require a bit more thought. As much as I love Haikyuu, I have to admit that I am not very good at remembering which positions each character plays. I mean, yeah, I know the positions of all of Karasuno’s starting line up and the positions…

Alright, Day 6 of the 30 Day Haikyuu Challenge and another day of sweet Haikyuu goodness! Today I’m supposed to write about my favorite volleyball position! *cue jokes* I never really gave much thought to which position I fancied the most, they all have their merits and while some positions come with…

This post is gonna be short, because honestly, I’m kinda burned out today, this was the longest work day in the history of workdays… Today’s post is kind of a complement to the day 4 post I wrote earlier today, since, well, I won’t spoil it for you guys… Okay,…

Alright, it’s Day 3 of the 30 Day Haikyuu Challenge, so far, I’ve been able to keep up with these posts (but, it’s still early in the challenge). I read through the challenge prompts before I started and I realized that I’m going to be double dipping quite a bit, since at…

Bark Bark 🐶 I love when otome games have the most unhinged choices... 😏 Can I Not Fall for Idols is funnier than it has any right to be (but between you and me, Issa more than earned that slap) Happy Otome Release Day! Homura The Crimson Warriors is officially out! I'm still pretty early on in the story, but I'm working towards either Saizo or Sasuke's routes. Sasuke is giving kuudere/tsun vibes and Saizo is a walking read flag... and I 100% believe I can fix them. Jest Messters is a mystery rom-com otome game where you're cursed by a jester to make cringey dad jokes! Uncover the truth behind your curse and romance 4 quirky suitors! The character design in Baldur's Gate 3 is TOP TIER! (Yes all the men in my party are in their undies... mama likes her eye candy) I think my otome husband might be a yandere... 🤔 I was playing @littlesnakestudio.official's House of Petals and IDK, Han is giving Toma vibes. Jest Messters is the punniest otome! I was playing the demo for Under Heaven or Hell... and I noticed something interesting about Zane's sprite design 🤔 My bestie @_myimy put me onto Low Tide in Twilight and few years back and it quickly became one of my fave series.
