Today was my last day of classes as a junior!! I still have finals over the next two weeks and then start the summer classes I've signed up for, but I'm done with classes for the moment! This weekend my family took a break and went to the beach, it was a much needed break after staying cooped up inside all semester. I got a lot of reading for fun done on the trip. The break from a screen was really nice. Also! My all time favorite kpop group may be redebuting under a new name or releasing a special track for their 10th anniversary this month!!! Even though they've been disbanded for a few years I'm excited at the chance of new music!!
submitted my math ia today!!! fingers crossed that i will do well>~< also I have a chem test tmr that i so didn’t study for because I was rushing to complete my IAs.... but i guess i gotta prioritise some stuff over others and IAs are more important sooo
I bought a Kanken bag in the size big at the very end of December (December 27th I believe) and I’ve decided to do a review since I didn’t really see many online when I was looking! I’ll also be providing images with this hella long review! I hope this is helpful ^^
Cost: $$$$
Normally it costs $124 CAD but there was the Boxing Week sale going on that had a 20% off discount sale that brought the price down to $94 CAD (but with the $12 tax it was a total of $105). So this bag is on the waaay too pricey side.
Shipping: ★★★★★
Since it was over $69 CAD, shipping was free! I also received the bag in 2 days!!! It came in this black packet that had bubble wrap on the inside and inside that was another clear packet was my bag
Appearance: ★★★☆☆
Its really chic and I am in love with the look. but i’ve had it for about less than a month and it’s gotten so dirty :( the dust is very visible and if it gets scuffed a little, from the shipping (I think? I’m not sure... my bag had marks before I even got it) like mine, it’s very noticeable
I really need to wash it OTL
What fits?
usually people only show things that fit inside travel wise and not school supplies, so that’s what I did since I’ll be using this as a school bag!
In the small compartment: ★★★★★
2 full pencil cases
1 pack of 10 Staedtler Triplus Fineliner
1 calculator
1 small pouch for my different cards
1 small Vaseline Lip Therapy
You can also fit some granola bars but I didn’t have any with me atm
In the main compartment: ★★★☆☆
1 12″ inch ruler
2 full 2″ inch binders
1 empty 1″ inch binder (to substitute textbooks bc I left mine at school rip)
1 full pencil case
1 pack of 10 Staedtler Triplus Fineliner
1 (pretty skinny) agenda
1 15.6″ inch laptop
there was actually a little bit more space left for smaller things. Though I couldn’t fit my water bottle in the pouch because the lack of space (if that makes sense). the pouch for water bottles is actually very skinny so only thin water bottles like the Smart Water bottles might fit. To be honest, I had higher expectations since people said that it fit so many things (esp. in the classic) and I’m lowkey scared my math and science textbook won’t fit with my 2 2″ inch binders.
Comfort: ★★★★☆
Dude, its hella comfy. I have really bad back pain and my posture is so bad rip and just like the brand promises, it does help with the pain. I don’t know how to explain it but it’s always pressed against my back in a way so I’m forced to stand up straight (!!!) and unless it’s extremely heavy, I don’t usually bend forward.
For more info I suggest you see this video. It’s for the maxi size but it’s still helpful!
Material: ★★★★★
It seems water resistant (I haven’t tested it yet) as stated on the site, and its seems durable like everyone says (again, I’ve only had this for about less than a month so I don’t know myself). The site also says that it’s Eco-friendly, so that’s a plus!
Overall rating: ★★★★☆
I give it that because I would like more space personally and it gets dirty really fast and its noticeable. But I still love it!
May 26th is such a special day for me. The very first kpop group I ever fell in love with debuted on May 26th and the second group I fell in love with also debuted on May 26th. It just feels meant to be that Boyfriend and Seventeen are two of my favorite groups. Today is Boyfriend’s 10th anniversary and Seventeen’s 6th anniversary. I’m so grateful for both of them and even more grateful for Boyfriend this year. They’ve been disbanded for a two years and this year they held an online fan meeting and released a special song for their anniversary. I’m truly feeling all the emotions today. I’m so proud of these two groups and they’ve both changed my life so much.
As I'm working on the last of my final projects for my fall 2020 classes, I wanted to share one of my favorite study pictures. I took this a few years ago from one of my favorite places in my campus library. I'm sad that I'm not going to be able to spend all four years on campus, I've been home this semester and will most likely be at home next semester as well. I miss my campus dearly and hope I can live there for my final year.
I decided not the film a journal with me video today and instead just set up my kpop journal. I might film a journal with me when I do spreads for my stan groups (in the tags).
