New reading trends.

Hi bubblies, I think TYB suddenly got a bunch of new bubblies, or maybe a few  really steadfast bubblies. Anyways, I just want to be accountable for the words I am to spill onto this screen: I'll write once a month minimum; I'll create a schedule to help me sail through the net year because ts mighty packed. I'll exercise my faith diligently by working hand in hand with God; I will minimize my feelings of incompetency, jealousy, lust, revenge, and self-pity. Keep me accountable. I'll try my best to do so myself. its been weightless, see you next time. TYB

A phone

So I have a tale to tell. I have been without mobile device for long a time and lived to tell about it. It all started on a warm Tuesday evening. April 8 2014 to be exact. My classmates and I were in the process of executing a Chinese fire drill,  when my phone fell, sliding under the car as I was trying to occupy the front passenger seat. Scared,  I quickly grasped at it praying the light didn't turn green. The people in the car behind us laughed as I scrambled for it... and finally got it within the confines of my hand. Phew. My classmates and I thought to go have lunch at Chipotle and we did. Before we went into the store I was torn between taking my phone or not. You see my phone was almost out of battery. On one hand I thought it was pointless carrying around a dead phone but then maybe I should take it. (I don't know why I did that because it's not like I wanted to charge it.  I know that because I did not take the charger.)  Very regretful decision. I only...

Roommate

I didn't look forward to it but I didn't hate it either. Having another being share my room with me was something I had lived with all my life save the last few months. Then one day I came home and the airy feel of my room was diminished: the open empty  space under my bed that filtered light in was darkened by storage bins; my organized  loosely packed closet was blessed with many a box. I thought perhaps my mother had thought my room could serve as storage for some inexplicable reason and I would reason explicably with her. Then  explicable realization- my aunt had said she'd be coming over to d tayfor quite a while. Since I was in school, I left home early and cameback late. And it just so happened that my aunt was working nights and sleeping days. So we never saw each other for three good days. When she did see me, she seemed angry put off and some of what she was feeling was directed at me. I came in said hi, I mean cuz I already knew she was in the house and I wa...

A day of solace

I have had a really good day today. At some points I felt bad then good then bad then good again. I was upset that what I wanted was given to someone else. Then I realized I had not asked whilst this other person had. Then I imagined that I would be ostracized for the duration. But, with just  few words from someone, I resolved to revel in solitude as opposed to loneliness. I enjoyed the movie. I can honestly say this. I also enjoyed dinner; though I must add that perhaps I was overbearing with the outgoingness or in trying to be fun/funny. I was just like the white tall guy in "think like a man too." Only thing is I am his opposite: black short girl. Yes, even though some may find it taboo to refer to black and white as opposites The whole day just led me to think of  picture that got my attention today... Cheers to your bubbles TYB
Hi bubblies, I've been gone for very long I realize. my writing skills may diminish if I do not consciously cultivate them. My art abilities too. Actually, all skills are bound to deteriorate if not practiced daily just as our limbs deteriorate if they are not used often enough. I'll be back i have to go talk to Sangmin sunbae! Well wasn't I gone for a long time. LS (laugh silently[ I am trying to make this happen lol ls]  TYB

지난 주말에

이벳 타무콩 한국어 수필 1 2014년 03월 04일  부모님께 아버지 잘 지내시죠? 지난주말에도 잘 지내셨지요? 여기는 날씨가 너무 달라요. 지난 주말에는 주말이 매우 길었어요.이틀이나 학교가 문을 안 열었오요. 신양면 눈이 많이 왔기 때문이에요. 특별한 날 이었어요. 학교가 주말에 저녁 일찍 닫았어요. 학생들은 이렇게 생각했어요: "이상해, 눈이 아직도 안 왔어요.  학교가 이렇게 문 미리 닫으면 문이 진짜 많이올거예요." 저는 행복했어요. 쉬난 시간이 많이 생겼어요. 그런데 금요일에 시험 봐야 ㅎ 했어요. 그랬어 생각했어요, "목요일애 겅부를 해야 해요." 하지만 교수님이 이메일을 보내셨어요 "여러분 이번 금요일날 시험을 보지 않을 거예요. 대신 다음주에 볼께요." 전 이것을 싫어했어요. 왜냐하면 다른 내용을 공부해야해요.  목요일에 일어나서 이를 닦고 아침 식사를 하거 침대로 돌아갔어요. 침대에서 스마트폰 으로 이 영화를 많이 봤어요. 배가 고프면서 부엌에 가서 과일과 과자를 침대로 가져갔어요. 잠깐 잠깐 영화 보기를 멈췄어요. 멈춰서 방을 청소 했어요. 하지만, 잠깐동안 방을 청소 했어요. 이렇게 놀았어요. 금요일에는 일찍 일어났지만 그날 도 학교가 닫았어요. 이메일을 읽고 잤어요. 제 친구가 전화했어요. "오늘 우리 같이 놀까요?" 대답했어요: "당근!" 이렇게 약속했어요. 뭐해 우리 인생에 대해  생각 많이 했어요. 보통 극중 같은 생각이었어요. 우리 어머니 나왔어요. "괜찮아요?" "응." 거짓말 했어요. 할 머니도 저에게 몰어봤어요: "이벳 괜찮니? 괜찮지 않은 것 같은데." 또 거짓말 했어요. 어머니 또 와서 제 앞에 앉아서 눈을 보고 "문제가 있어요?" 말했어요. 같이 이야기를 했어요. 어머니께서 저 많이 도와주셔서 고마웠어요 이벳 올림

Thoughts before sleep 3

Please, 재벌, por favor, let me pass my chem131 exam 2! Prayerfully yours, TYB I did!

uuuuuugh

Today did not start off good. Mother nature made sure it didn't. I felt like I was dying during my first class of the day. My insides were twisting all wrong or there was a monster inside tearing at my lower abdomen organs. the pills I gulped down took their sweet ole time kicking in. So I had to resort to the time old pain killer: sleep. I went the main library's sixth floor found a chair and collapsed into it. I slept for about two hours. And when I woke the pain was still there although a little bit subdued . So I ate some yogurt and considered going back to sleep. I didn't but I didn't accomplish anything special during one hour so I'm set on doing something within the one hour I have left until my second class starts. TYB

My hot list

 As of 2013-12-29, this is the list of males find attractive. Mind you some are fictional characters and others are quite physically real. Now at first I wanted to post pictures of these man crushes, but I figured one might get a cavity from all the eye candy. So it's up to you to google the names and fall in like. Notice I didn't say love because we all know how hard unrequited love sucks. Dave Franco Ren Tsugara Yamato Kurosa Joseph Gordon-Levitt Dr. Spencer Reid Anderson Cooper Park Soo Ha Choi Min Ho Lance Sweets Daniel Henney then Dennis Oh (I just thought you should know my preference between the two.) Kim Soo Hyun  Professor Do Minjoo

Taking the subway

It's exactly like using the DC metro system. It's only when you expect to the different that you will get lost.    First with every stop there's an opposite stop, I.e going in an opposite direction. This means that all bus route are eventually circles of a sort. So, if you get lost just stay on the same bus until it brings you back to point one. Unless that is you, armed with a map, are sure of your decoding skills (not to brag but I was...just saying.) With trains they also go in circles as in back and forth. But I would recommend staying on one until it goes full circle. Unless, that is, you have lots of time to spare. This time I would recommend using both your decoding skills as well as your every bit of Korean. And if you focus all of your luck in one place you might encounter a Korean who know English and is willing to help you. But let me explain the ridunkulous way that I got lost. First it will add to the ridunkulousness if I tell you that my homestay dad had expla...

Centre meseum

I went to the centre meseum in Seoul. This park is of the chain!!!! It's so unlike the parks in the us. It serves as both a kids park and an adult playground. What I mean by adult playground is that adults cann easily play on the installments because they are not to small. More importantly, the installments are exercise tools: From weight lifting to swivel chairs. Here in this building lies a traditional Korean bell. Unfortunately I can't tell you the history behind it because I was too enamored with pretty surroundings to ask. The hint of blue you see on the structure that houses the bell is actually a very intricate pattern that wraps around all four sides of the structure. This is another beautiful location around the museum. I almost want to say that I have seen this in the Korean dramas Faith, Queen Inhyun's Man and another one whose name I do not recall. Well this has been swell  Yours touristically, TYB

Just you episode 7

It's super hot when an ice box melts. I'm talking about Qi xi heart btdubs. And Laing Laing, girl, it's  not a game or secret plan anymore cuz girl you've fallen and there's no getting back up. I love Princess she is thee cutest thing ever. I need to get one of her. Dean is cute but kinda annoying although I do like that he's playing matchmaker for Lianglian and boss!!!!!!! Can't wait for someone to confess!  Yeah brother Bo did but he's not part of my fave couple, ie the main couple. Impatiently yours, TYB

I hear your voice

I just finished this series! How hot was Park Soo Ha?!! I was fangirling all the way if that tells you anything.  At first I was wondering how the producer was going to deal with the cougar issue. I mean they kind of did at some points but it still feels untouched. Like when Lawyer Cha was unloading on Soo Ha how he was immature and a burden, when at the end she wouldn't accept his gift because she felt she was taking away his livelihood.

When a woman frustrates a man

Hey you.....yeah you! I'm pissed, you prolly are too! I am so frustrated by  Min Chae Won's (CW) behavior. She  is too much of a martyr. Just imagining the heartbreak that Lee Se Yoon (SY) felt, and still feels, when she left him at the  altar makes my heart crumble. She needs to care for herself more; do what she wants to do and stop putting others first. Its not like those people have always sacrifice or you. And most importantly the your future does not lie with those people; it lies with the  incredibly handsome man in front of you and he is begging you to think of your or happiness if not his own. He clearly told you to avoid contact with everybody until after the wedding- but oh no! Miss goody two shoes had to go and listen to her voicemail and pick up a  call   from  Ugly ahjumma. I mean by now you should know  that your aunt is bad news. Then you  had the audacity to make a  decision by  yourself and leave SY at the al...

Starting afresh

It's a new day, A new decade to be more  magnanimous. (Use of SAT word: check) I've gotten to the age where I can count my age in terms of decades i.e. "I've got two decades on me now." Throughout these two decades I've been smart dumb interesting mum and every other pair of antonyms you can think of. I learned lessons that I will never learn the same way again (my friends will hold me to this, or at least my pride).  One lesson I've learned: no one can hear your oh so witty thoughts. I've learned it but still having a little smidgen of trouble practicing it. Another: have friends of all shapes and colors (not literally). Don't build up stereotypes and form misunderstandings all on your own.  The last and most VIP for me: keep your hopelessly romantic antics within pages as opposed to wearing it as perfume. Cinderelli and the other girls only exist in Disneyland. Scratch that. The most important is to treasure and be thankful for what I already hav...

Dayum. Well aren't I alone 나 혼자

I always thought my brother and I were in it together and i was a little better off, but I was wrong. He is a whole other different person. I'm just too stupid and self absorbed to have realized. I thought both he and I had problems relating and communicating with other people. I also thought that he wasted time on the computer playing games all day long. I was severely wrong. My brother is a very level headed boy with dreams and aspirations which he has plans for. I couldn't resist:  "He got that ambition baby look in his eyes." I want my mother to also come to this realization.   Stop here. It only gets more depressing. Now it's make it or crumble up time for me. Going through my life as if I were I island and that no one is there or that I can't help anyone should stop. When I was young I always thought I'd break out if my self and be reborn anew all my imperfections vanished into thin air. But it's turning out for the worse. One per...

I don't want to take another trip down, stupid shape

Crap I'm still picking up the scraps I don't want to fall again Last time I did I only had wounds to gain The cracks are still there Stupid shape still wants to dare it felt good,the adrenaline rush Heat felt from a mere brush But now stupid shape built up resistance Telling me to take a closer stance But taking a step closer Makes me a poster child for danger ignorer It's too bad I can already feel the scars for when stupid shape convinces me to take that step that makes me fall right side up with my head over my heels.

Lee Se Yoon = 바버

#hundredyearinheritance #leeseyoon boy is so dumb! Get your head on straight. Look at those pictures! How could Chae Won have taken them of she was in them! I mean crapitude! Where are your problem solving skills! #kimjoori you are so dumb! Do you think after he sees your mom he won't figure out that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree? #mincheawon don't stress to much. You prolly already suspect Joo Ri. Use your resources. Match her handwriting to the 사탕 note. Also I'm pretty sure your building has camera's. Use them!!! You can nail her for planting the basket and stealing the thank you note and soup from Se Yoon's office. #leedonkyu good job for not trusting all that comes out of Joo Ri's mouth even if your wifey believes it. P.S.- Your wife has some skeletons hidden under the bed. Check those out.

I found love in an inked up place

No not a tattoo shop or anything tattoo-related. Well, unless you mean the fake kind that you draw on your self when you are bored. Doesn't it suck when the pen doesn't write well on skin? This is my journey of writing materials I used to be a pencil kinda gal. I used to draw a lot and doodle all over. It just felt so much more right to draw with pencils. Also, I wasn't quite the technological era yet. So homework including BCRs and extended BCRs had to be written on paper. So that meant you mess up you start over. teachers didnt take messed up papers with words crossed out and all other errs kids would make. I liked that pencils could Be erased. Then they started demanding that we switch over to pens. I got used to it. I started carrying lots of pens around: I bought, picked up, found and some I don't even recall how I acquired. But within all these pens I found "The one." Pentel RSVP BK91 Fine; smooth, minimized friction movement that led to thin shar...
