I've been reading alot recently and realised if some of these people can write then so can I. So I plan on writing some ridiculously bad novel during the summer.
I'd say do it but be careful who you get it from? I would but I have drug tests and shit, but it's pretty relaxing over all, I do it before I go for a run/do something time consuming and get way into it and do it better.
Only do it around ppl you're comfortable with tho/from a safe/well known dealer i guess.
Hello...I'm sitting in class but I had to say HELLO!
So...have you heard Yifan's (Kris) song "Time Hushes All Memories/Time Boils The Rain" yet?
I was just thinking that, based on how Kris has already positioned himself, how much better off M could have been if they weren't the red headed step child and he was involved in the decision making process as he desired.
Perhaps M can still do digital singles remaking Chinese songs, like that Immortal Song appearance, or songs made for them that aren't just translated kpop.
I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I was surprised by how much I liked this. He's not going to win singer of the year, but the song suits his range and he has a really nice tone.
i want to thank everyone who replied to me last time, i ditched that therapist. i have the last session scheduled on 31th (she insisted on it tbh, "in order to wrap things up") and i guess i'll have to look for someone else. i had my doubts wether i should stop seeing her or not but the meeting with her i had on monday was terribad. i straight up told her i'm wondering if i want to still see her and told her what i think went wrong. she was trying to show me how much of a bad person i am and i need her in my life. she told me loads of crap (even more than she did last week) like in her opinion i'm super wrong about my sexuality cause "it's not normal for a 20 year old to be asexual!". what is normal then... that therapist was such a flop yet i don't really regret seeing her as she did help me... but not really as much as i needed. when i told her that she got pissed and said "what do you expect, i started helping you only 6 months ago, you need more time". yeah, maybe. but dunno if something will change in "our" 5th year or something. but for all these six months she used to make me feeli like crap all the time, esp when her "safe and trusted" methods like "light" hypnose never worked on a sociopath like me and she tended to vent the flustation on me. i know i'm hard to deal with but then i wouldn't be seeking proffessional help i guess. again thanks for the support ^^
it's 00:20 here and i'll be trying to get some sleep, i've been slowly cleaning my rented flat for past two days (i was supposed to be done today but yeah, i'm a lazy fart). the weather is really hard to bear. i was electrocuted when i was two and since then i had some problems with body temperature and i die a little each summer :(
btob is having japan concerts today and tomorrow, yay. i hope they'll cover another japanese song, lion heart last time was pretty good (even though eunkwang forgot the lyrics lol).
did you hear about netizens guessing that her song title is a double entendre, because the korean title is more like "it's red" instead of just red, and it's similar in spelling to "i'll suck" lololololol creativity although i would not be surprised if the producers did intend it... tsk tsk tsk
So, NYPD just killed another Black man, no criminal charges have been filed and probably never will be. And people wonder why we hate the fucking police. I'm really upset about it. Looking to see what type of organizing is happening around his death. Hoping to get involved somehow.
And one of my clients basically confessed to an assault on FB so when we go to court on Monday, he'll probably be detained. He's 14 :(
The husband and father who was put in a choke hold? I don't even understand that situation. He even told them he couldn't breathe and they still didn't let go and caused his death. It's ridiculous. Police get away with homicide all the time.
So I've been having trouble with this one student at school. Almost every class this kid doesn't do his work, is out of his seat, will start singing or humming or talking to the other students while I'm teaching, will be eating in class, or playing with a toy. He's like 8 or 9 years old. Every class I have to stop teaching to discipline him, which I hate for several reasons. And he doesn't care, or he acts like he doesn't care, and he doesn't listen to the Korean teachers either. On Wednesday I told him that if he keeps misbehaving he would have to write a letter in Korean to his grandmother explaining why he's being bad in class.
Sorry this is long, but I need to vent and I need advice on this kid. He's driving me up the wall and I get so frustrated I could cry.
In my experience kids like these will cause disruption because of either problems at home or simply they find the work too challenging or have needs, but will instead of working on it, ignore their work or disrupt classes so that noone gets any work done. Maybe a long talk with the child in question would help? Offer him your ear and ask if he needs some help with his work. What is the quality of his work like??
He could just be a class clown and thus you'll have atough time with him, but stick with the discipline, until he realises that he's not in charge, some kids are Kings at home and expect teachers to obey them, I've had issues myself with troublesome parenting and having to teach kids simple manners.
Remember you are the teacher, put him in line if he's acting up for no good reason.
I recently found a product that seems to clear up the blackheads I've had on my t-zone for a long time very well. Now I'm left with large looking pores where the blackheads used to be. Is there an inexpensive effective method to make my pores look smaller? (My t-zone and forehead also gets oily and I occasionally get breakouts on my face.)
have you tried face masks and exfoliation yet? idk much abt reducing pores, normally i try to target clogged pores, since my skin is a disgusting mess smh what did you use to clear the blackheads? :o
Has anyone used Tinder or dating websites??? do you have any happy/funny stories??? I don't like that you have to join with your facebook so I haven't try it XD
On one of the dates, which was going fairly well, I was accosted on the way to the toilet by my dates current boyfriend who accused me of trying to steal his lover. That was fun.
Just be careful of believing the profiles as 90% of it is bull and they will never look like what they do in the pics. I once went on a date with a guy and well his picture profile was abit of a lie since he ended up being a different ethnicity all together. His excuse was that the lighting in the cafe was wrong and that's why he looked like a completely different person. Some people I swear.
I'm going to a wedding this weekend for a couple I met for the first time last week. It might be fun. Idk. I don't like weddings but it has a pirate themed reception so... Then there will be a mini-musical festival at my grandparents house put on by all my uncle's musician friends. What a weird weekend.
OMG I'M WATCHING THE END OF THE NEWEST EPISODE OF MARRIAGE NOT DATING AND I AM LOSING MY SHIT IT IS GETTING TOO REAL I MEAN I KNOW ITS FOR COMEDY'S SAKE BUT WTFFFFF lmao
Hey all, I'm new-ish around here! :D Vacation week for me and I'm spending my last week day watching running man. I'm a bit obsessed to say the least. I know Monday Couple isn't real, but they are so freaking adorable I can barely stand it.
Hello omona. I want to thank everyone for their kind words, support, and advice. Sadly my cat still hasn't returned home; but I'm not giving up. I will call for her everyday till she returns, regardless of tentative attitude of my mother. Thank you all! :)
listening to chill music while relaxing, lab work has been stressful this week since we have a rush deadline but the contact at the company we're working with for this research is always on vacay
in my experience working with large clinical and research companies/corporations is hell
so i posted omona's blackface article on todayhumor.co.kr, and it got some pretty good discussion going. unfortunately i received 10 downvotes before i reached 100 upvotes so the post couldn't get to the best of best (which is like the frontpage on reddit), but i liked that a lot of people agreed with the post, or acknowledged that they had no idea what blackface was or why it was offensive.
one of the comments posted bunch of pictures of white people doing the slant eyes and i think that's what made a lot of people see when i say imitating someone's physicial trait that has been used in an offensive way for a long time becomes an offensive gesture no matter your intent.
while pretty much everybody understood why blackface done by gag concert comedians was offensive, some of the comments said that they don't understand why cosplay of specific people that happened to be black is bad, because they think that if that's done with respect for that particular person and they want to keep it realistic, shouldn't imitating their physical looks, including skin tone be okay? then others countered that if some foreigner was a big fan of psy and decided to cosplay psy with slanty eyes and yellow skin tone as opposed to just wearing sunglasses, koreans would be pissed too.
overall I think it got some healthy discussion, i would've posted on other sites too but i'm just so busy right now writing secondaries for med school that i don't think i have the time to check on the post constantly and reply to comments. i stayed up until 4am the night before to respond to all the comments.
