10 Random Things I Love

Disclaimer: this page may contain affiliate links.


I think appreciating what you have is important. It makes life so much more enjoyable. Here's a list of things I like a lot.

  1. MUJI Handy Shredder
    MUJI Handy Shredder
    This is for shredding receipts, but if you need to shred a bigger paper you can just tear it with your hands so they're small enough to fit into this. This is perfect for people like me who doesn't shred enough papers that it's worth spending money on an actual paper shredder, but still want to protect their privacy. It is hand-operated, so the papers will be shredded when I spin the handle. I don't know why, but I love shredding receipts with this. I do it to protect my privacy, but there is something about shredding receipts with this machine that is so soothing.
  2. Hello Kitty Slippers
  3. I bought this circa 2012 at a Target near Columbus, Ohio.

  4. Stanley Adventure Stainless Steel Flask 354ml
  5. It's important to stay hydrated, and in order to save resources and money, it is important to carry a reusable water container. I find that the flat-ish shape of this flask makes it much easier to carry around than cylindrical water bottles. The only unfortunate thing about using a flask in lieu of a water bottle is that when I drink water out of this thing people assume that it's liquor.

  6. Molskine Volant Ruled Notebook Sage Green
  7. I've digitized most of my papers, I can't seem to replace tangible notebooks with digital memo apps. So I'm still using a paper notebook, despite my efforts to use less paper. I at least try to use FSC certified products. I use Moleskine because I love the paper quality, and its sturdiness.

  8. My Winter Mittens
  9. This is so cute! They look like knit mittens on the outside, but it has fluffy lining on the inside, which is super cozy and warm. A classmate of mine gave it to me a couple years ago for my birthday and I'll forever be grateful. This helped me survive a winter in Siberia.

  10. Don't Starve
  11. Don't Starve
    This game is pretty popular, so I gave it a try, and I'm glad I did. After all, we are digital kids who evolved from hunter-gatherers. This game is the epitome of what we are, I suppose. I don't think I'll enjoy it in real life, but I like gathering ingredients and making things virtually. It reminds me that human lives used to be much harder. Really, how good is modern technology? I don't have to run from hounds! Anyways, I got 180+ days far and going. I can't seem to beat the adventure mode, though.

  12. Duolingo
  13. Duolingo logo
    I've always liked, and been good at learning languages. That's why I'm bilingual. Since my trip to Russia my interest in Russian culture has increased and I've been trying to learn Russian. Duolingo is the best free language learning website I've ever known. It's easy to use, straightforward, and effective.

  14. Triple Town
  15. Triple Town
    I don't play mobile games that much, but when I do, I like the ones that are simple, but still makes you use your brains. Triple Town is exactly that. I also like Spry Fox's another game, Alphabear

  16. Criminal Minds
  17. Criminal Minds
    I love a lot of TV series but Criminal Minds is one of the very few shows of which I love every single main character. I do have favorites, though. Spencer Reid is my favorite and Penelope Garcia is my second favorite. It is also one of the few shows that I re-watch over and over again. Usually I don't watch TV episodes once I've already gotten through. In addition to its amazing characters, the sneak peaks into the world of profiling and the suspense of identifying criminals and bringing them to justice just keep me watching. It also has good music, too. I learned about some of my now-favorite songs, such as As It Seems, on this show.

  18. KU Cinematheque
  19. KU Cinematheque logo
    I like films, and I like cinema. I especially like KU Cinematheque theatre, because it's in my school campus, screens variety of films that aren't blockbusters, and they are cheap. Their regular price is already lower than regular multiplex theaters, and I get extra discount. This is my happy place. In fact, my goal of 2016 is to see every film that screens at this theater, and so far I've been succeeding. My favorite films I've seen there this year are Carol and Our Little Sister (Umimachi Diary).
