For me, this semester passed by so quickly. Usually long semesters had me dying but this time it was actually manageable. I'm almost halfway through my degree life and sometimes I still can't believe it. More and more friends are graduating and I feel I still don't know them well enough, but that's life, isn't it? You never have enough of anything.
It feels refreshing to not be on Facebook and just focus on writing spontaneously while listening to my favourite song of current. 'Become Each Other's Tears' from Hwarang (I like both of the versions, from Hyolyn and Park Seojun). The song never fails to play in my mind every single day, and I loved the song from the first time I heard it. Perhaps it was because the song played at all the tragic parts and I was crying so it was indented into my brain and heart.
Speaking about Park Seojun, he's my loveee now. Or specifically, I should say Sun Woo, whom is the character he played in Hwarang. He's stoic but he can be awkwardly cute oh my God. He always try his best to stand for justice and for the people he loves. He's unapologetically himself that sometimes it can be unnerving but also I won't wish for him to be any different. Apart from all these, he is so damn honest that he's too straightforward sometimes, but I believe that's what build his charms.
Sun Woo + Ah Ro = I Love Them!

Clearly as can be seen from these two men, I have a thing for stiff and serious looking guys that are actually caring and tries hard to protect and understand the ones they love. I've never really realized it until I watch Hwarang and all the pieces come together as I remember liking this kind of guys in anime too. When they smile or laugh, it just melts my heart. But in reality I'm not that into guys so I'm also a fictional character lover like many of us.
I realized it has been a month since I last wrote an entry, which was about our dog who was caught, and that means their one month is over and it's time for them to pass on. It wasn't a good idea to listen to sentimental songs and suddenly be reminded of her; I teared up a bit. I hope all the dogs and puppies have a better life next time or perhaps we should make the world a better place for every living things, then we won't have to force them to die. Every time I see a stray, I think, run run as far as you can and stay there. Find a safe shaded place, find some food, run around a bit so you are agile, be observant - all these things. But they won't understand me even if I tell them. I look at our own dog sometimes and be reminded that that could have been his life, as he was a stray before we took him in. Now he's a loved, well-fed and fluffy handsome dog. I stroke his head and stomach sometimes and sing him songs.
Recently, I've started working part time again, back at the art studio I used to work at 2 years ago. This time, my students' age is an average of 12 years old, while last time, I used to teach 9 years old kids. Everyone's growing! I have 4 students whom comes at a nicely spaced out time throughout the day so it's not too hectic for me and also I find it easy to communicate with them. Previously, some of the students were unmotivated or just plain stubborn so it caused me some headache hahaha. Good experience though. I'm also trying to do some freelance work and practice my rusty skills in certain areas so I don't lose momentum... but I still do. For example, now, I'm so bored and I'm getting bitten by mosquitoes in the kitchen. I'm also sweating.

work in progress but I think it looks pretty decent considering I
imagined how to make it off the top of my head LOL
People around me are going for internship now, including sis, while I'm just waiting for the new short semester to start. I'll be taking Korean language and Personal Social Responsibility classes. I don't have quite an idea what the latter is about so I'm eager to find out. On weekdays, I spend my time at my Grandma's house looking after the kids we are babysitting but it's so tiring! No wonder my Grandma is considering not to take care of them but still I like them too much to let them go. >_< The little boy is starting to pick up skills so fast now, like all kinds of skills. He has longer attention spans, he understands logic while playing with toys and he calls my name now!! Too cuteee. He also gives hugs and kisses and gets excited when he hears music or when people dance. It's entertaining looking at him. I have a game that I play with him, which is me sliding under the sofa and he always tries to figure out how I do it. He never manages to do it because he tried crawling inside but his head and butt always get stuck hahahaha!
I'm also trying to keep in touch with friends now that everyone is a little more in control of their lives and arguably more capable to meet up. Last week, sis and I went on an outing with Lay Si (our secondary school friend), just the 3 of us, and it was fulfilling. We talked so much and got to understand each other more. We planned for one more outing next week and aimed to meet up occasionally. It makes me happy to think about going out and reconnecting with people. We planned to meet up together one day and I'll bring TH together so I'm also looking forward to that as well. =)
TH was whom I referred to as my Shy Friend a few months ago. It has been a while since I talked about him. He's no longer just my friend, he's my boyfriend now, but we haven't put it out there yet. We have been together for almost 3 months, 7 months if you include the trying period because we waited 4 months before we decided to be together. It's still pretty awkward for me to refer to him as my boyfriend and I cringe every time. We don't meet often usually, but we did meet once a week these past few weeks because it was nearing the end of the semester and we were more free. Now we're back to not meeting often because he's having his internship. Maybe we'll meet like once a month now hahaha! Our schedule pretty much clashes so we'll see how it goes. For now, video chatting is the best option but we still do it once or twice a week only. But that makes the meet ups more precious so I'm not too worried. Perhaps we don't meet often that it doesn't feel drastically different than usual.
I've been on Sims 2 a lot this week because I finally had time to play it! Mainly, I just create buildings because that's what I'm more into. I'm so bored now maybe I should read back my blog posts and relive some memories. Or maybe not. I'm so bored.
Bye!
