Stories, experiences, and feelings in this journey of life.
So the other day, a friend posted this thing about happiness on his Instagram story. He resented how people always asked what we had, if we were married, if we had a good job, etc. but we were hardly asked if we were happy. So I made a poll asking whether people were happy or…
The other day I ran into this tweet by Paulo Coelho: It really strikes me. I mean, that’s how I often feel, too. Not only “I love you” but something like, “I miss you”, “Where have you been? I’m worried.”, etc. Sometimes I’m afraid some people will think it’s cringey especially when we are not…
What is peace? What is safe? I have always tried to not talk about how dangerous it can be to live in the states. One of the reasons is that I don’t want to make my family at home worry. Another reason is that I feel Tucson is very safe. Nothing horrible has ever happened…
Being able to manage our money is one key to survival. Currently I happened to talk about someone who seems to be bad at managing money. I’m going to use “they” to refer to the person because I do not want to reveal the “gender” as a “giveaway”. I actually feel sorry for them but…
So, well, I know I’ve been talking about how much I love Lee Dong Wook (hence Wookie) but I haven’t posted about him properly here. Lee Dong Wook is a South Korean Actor. Actually I don’t think he’s that famous, though his fame rose as he played the Grim Reaper in Goblin, a Korean drama….
And, oh, last Thursday and Friday we learned adjectives. One of the things we learned was color in Japanese. So, in Japanese, we add “i” to the color to make it adjective. Thus, black is “kuro(i)”, white is “shiro(i)”, red is “aka(i)”, yellow is “kiiro(i)”, etc. (There are some exceptions where instead of adding “i”…
Several days ago, I went to stroll around the town with a friend. Actually, she’s been asking me to hang out several times but either our schedule didn’t match, or I simply couldn’t make it. That day I decided to okay her invitation because I didn’t want her to think that I didn’t want to…
As you might have guessed, now that we’re done with Chapter 3 and had the chapter test, we I come to be assigned a new seat and, thus, a new partner for Chapter 4. So, on Thursday after the midterm oral test, I got to pick the stick with the number. Gosh, I got number…
This past week I have been absent from Instagram and other social media (Twitter and Facebook). The reason being is…I don’t know. Maybe I’m just bored. Besides, people say Instagram such social media causes addiction. I think I just wanted to challenge myself, a kind of proving that I’m still in control of it; that…
Yesterday was the last day of classes before Spring Break. We’re going to start Spring Break earlier this year: March 5-9, 2018. This is a bit unusual because usually Spring Break is much later in the semester, probably around the end of March or beginning of April, but this year the break is adjusted to…
