Current Affairs v.04

Books (L to R): Looking for Alaska (John Green) / This Side of Paradise (F. Scott Fitzgerald) / The Descendants (Kaui Hart Hemmings)
Nails: Zoya Beatrix


Hey all!  Hope you all had a good weekend. :)  I should be back to normal posting this week!  I thought I'd start off with a quick post today.  I've read three books since my last Current Affairs post.  I meant to take a picture with my nails but my hands kept coming out red.  I think it's because of The Descendants book.  Anyway, here's a look at Beatrix (pr sample) in my light box.  It looks much better in the sun though, so I'll do a proper review soon with sunlight swatches. :)

Until tomorrow~

Current Affairs v.03

Finally, a Current Affairs post!  It took me a while to finish Catch-22 and then I didn't get around to picking up another book until now. -_-


Book: Fahrenheit 451 - Ray Bradbury
Nails: China Glaze Riveting

Anyway, can't believe I didn't read this earlier.  I remember my friend reading it in high school and being interested in it.  I love dystopian novels and this one was so good.  It's pretty short, so I devoured it from cover to cover, including the afterword and coda.  Ray Bradbury is so interesting!  I will have to look into his other works now.

Light box swatches of Riveting.

What should I read next?  I'm still waiting for Looking For Alaska by John Green to free up at the library.  Oh, and are you familiar with Zedd?  Lately, my sister's been trying to convince me to go to an electronic music festival with her.  I'm not really into electronic music, but I do like the song I linked above.

Well, that's all I have to say today! :)

Current Affairs v.02


Book: Catch-22 - Joseph Heller
Nails: Skinfood BR610 Rich Mocha
Show: How I Met Your Mother Season 8 (finally caught up!)
  

Quick post today!  I started Catch-22 last weekend, but haven't gotten very far.  Hopefully, I'll be able to finish it over the weekend.  On my nails I'm wearing Rich Mocha, which is like a metallic brown/bronze.  Isn't it prettyIt kind of matches the book... :P

Until tomorrow!

Current Affairs v.01




Book: Lord of the Flies - William Golding
Music: If I Ever Lost You - Tom Law
Shows: How I Met Your Mother Season 7
Sweets: Hershey's Mint Truffle Kisses
 

I have this long list of books that I want to read before I die.  I've always been an avid reader since I was young, and a fan of classics since middle school.  After graduating, I realized I haven't been reading as much, so out came the list.  I thought it'd be fun if I did these little posts on what I'm currently reading, wearing on my nails, etc.  I'll post new ones every time I start a new book. :)

And someone please get these chocolates away from me!
