phone case haul
EBAY x ALIEXPRESS PHONE CASE HAUL!
hi everyone! i'm just doing a quick review of a phone case haul i bought (semi)recently! sorry for being so mia ;___; went to puerto rico for thanksgiving break (omg it was beautiful and so warmmm) and i've had a lot of work ;___; + i got a surgery on my foot so it hurts to walk! yay!!!!
this review is not sponsored, aka i bought everything here with my own money. all for iphone 5/5s!
white/purple star glitter case
i am a sucker for liquid cases okay.. the moving pieces inside are very satisfying and entertaining. and the aesthetics... good quality, but liquid/quicksand cases can leak, and then have liquid enter your phone which is bad af. i didn't have any real problems, but i did have bubbles form. as it was my first liquid case, i got worried and stopped using it for a while. i've since super glued the opening (bottom left corner) on the inside. occasionally use it but it's very nice for pictures.
tl:dr, cute + aesthetics, beware of bubbles and leakage

baymax case
one of the cases i got the most compliments on tbh LOL. everyone loves baymax hehe (and of course, me too) the silcone cover was really nice and actually surprisingly easy to grip after I got used to how huge it was ;___; first couple of days, my hand would get sore if i held the phone for too long;;; it was decently sized, big enough to fit in a jacket pocket but def not any pants pockets (unless you wear guys pants fruit those) the huge issue i had with it was that the top right corner of the case kept on peeling off my screen protector ~_~ i have bubbles there now and since have switched cases.
tl:dr, if you have big hands and pockets and love baymax, get it! otherwise, it's too bulky.

pink hearts glitter case
very cute!! as i mentioned earlier, the biggest problem with liquid cases is the possibility of leaking ;-; bubbles did form, but nothing major happened. the hearts were pink and the other misc pieces of glitter were either a deeper pink or white color. however, under a certain light (aka all of the ones in my house), the white glitter gained a neon green tint. i personally don't feel like it's too big of a deal, but it's definitely not as pretty :(
tl:dr, pretty and girly, bubbles appear, sometimes looks pink and green instead of pink and white

space stars glitter case
i've had a few bubbles pop up in my case (one alarming large one) but they've disappeared?? idk how to explain... probably had something to do with flying on an airplane? but overall it seems fine! i like it a lot because it's not the typical "cute" style that most cases i like have :^). there was a sort of label along the bottom of the case, as you can see in the picture. i ended up scratching it off because.. i could... and i prefer it this way tbh ^^
tl:dr, cool case, just don't drop it too much!

rambles;
i enjoy music in general, the smell of old books, the smell of new books, cracking the spine of a new book open, hilarious things, things that make me cry from sheer emotion, sad fics and dramas, cheesy dramas, baggy sweaters, pretty pictures, having that moment of inspiration before writing a story and being satisfied with the outcome, sleeping, running on no sleep, ice cream cake for birthdays, putting up my christmas tree by myself, cool lemonade, rainy cold days, drizzles on your face, action movies, unlimited amounts of piping! hot noodles and dumplings and wontons, minimalistic furniture, laughing at friends who are shorter than me, having deep conversations with strangers, muted colors, going through color pallets at diy stores, choosing yarn and looking through projects, drinking bubble tea, going to froyo stores, that moment when I finally draw something the way I imagined it, baking tasty sweets, cute stuffed plush toys, the smell of the ocean, fruit, good wuxia drams, some anime, the feeling of collapsing on the mattress after a long day, baggy sweaters, ice cream cake for birthdays, the tranquility of night, pretty pictures, cute cellphone charms, the tranquility of night, funny japanese emoticons, when everything is organized, when everything is disorganized, when my clothes match and don’t make me look like an overgrown middle schooler, when I actually don’t expect a plot twist, when I can’t predict what will happen next, overgrown kittens, energetic puppies, and being able to choose when to laugh.
