today

i spent most of my time watching documentaries and making lists on listgeek. the rest of the time i studied and did nothing. life is hard. ily government website you're very informative most of the time but ffs make some sense. :( tomorrow i have an interview at 9am and the school seems sort of promising and hipster but i got in to one school for sure already so i'm not sure i'll bother going in the morning.. will see. i'm probably gonna end up not being able to even get out of bed so. -_-




on the edge of the water
where the ships pass by
and the sound of your laughter
and the endless sky
tips my head back
full of swimming thoughts
beneath deep breathing

sunny in a box & an hour in the sun











dollar was so excited and had so much fun out on the balcony, had to keep an extra eye on him as he got veeery curious at the birds and i was scared he'd jump into the sky.. but sunny was very hesitant and never got further than our tomato plant. i put sunscreen on but the right part of my body still got a bit burnt, the redness is all gone now though, but it stings a little bit. was very nice to be outside, and my sunglasses let me pretend that i'm tanned. i'd love my own laptop (the one i have now is used by my mom since we payed 50/50..) to work outside but i'm sure the laptop wouldn't appreciate the sun as much as i do. my room is so boring and uninspiring and i wish my window was on another wall and bigger. i also wish i had a bigger bed that's a bit closer to the floor instead of the ceiling. and i wish my cats would get over their obsession with drinking water out of the bathtub tap and just drink out of their bowl again even if i hate that bowl because it's so hard to clean and it's such a hassle to refill the water.

우린 끝이라는 건 없어

so today i studied a lot of Korean. it's really a lot of fun, but my weakness is memorizing stuff like days and numbers. even though i use a korean pc calendar i barely remember the days, lol. i used to practice a lot remembering the sino-korean numbers, but now i only remember one to four. so i've put little post-its on my screen so i can practice when i'm at the pc. it's going to be a real challenge remember espescially six, which is 륙/육 depending on how it's used. my favorite korean number is probably eight, 팔, because there's a curse word called 시발, which people "spell" 18. i think i learned that through Heechul.

i also finished my first hardback moleskine (third moleskine total) which wasn't quite as exciting as i thought it would be. i filled the last pages with info about some religious people like Billy Graham and Muqtada al-Sabr, for school. very interesting. anyway i kind of cheated with starting on my next Moleskine, which is a large plain hardback, by sketching websites and other stuff for school, so it feels sort of lame. i kind of regret doing that now. QQ. oh well, there will be other moleskines. anyway the first pages of "real" writing is just Korean studies. marking particles and some words i don't remember often and stuff, lots of fun. i've also printed out the workbooks from talktomeinkorean.com, which are sort of like tests on what you can remember from the mp3/pdf lessons they provide (which are great btw) and they're lots of fun. i'm on level one lesson seventeen at the moment, and it's been very easy so far and it's mostly stuff i already know, but i've learnt a lot too! they're already publishing level five lessons so i really want to catch up with that. i took a peek on the latest one and it was actually some stuff i already knew in there, which i thought was funny. but i'm kind of like that, i pick up on grammar rules and such very quickly without realizing it, so it's nice to have someone explaining how it works. rambling.

they'll forever be my number one favorite kpop group. amazing to have seen them grow as singers and idols for the past three years. want them to make a comeback already, a korean one. sigh. Onew's smile contains all the happiness in the world. Key, biggest diva, lmao. Jonghyun.. sexy and self-centered power vocal? Minho.... he's like a turtle. without the shell. hahahaha. baby Taemin... growing up.
