Beauty is pain but not beauty causes more pain

I'm not saying that you should make yourself covered in blood or something. What I mean about beauty is confidence and believes that you are pretty. If you aren't confidence about yourself it will cause you more pain. Even if I have this huge nose and I don’t have fair skin I still believe that I am pretty. I don’t care about people opinions. Well, I do care actually. But it didn’t discourage me to be who I am. If you don't believe that you're pretty then who will?

 

Have you seen this video?  I got a goosebumps every time I watch it. Sometimes you need to look at yourself from other people perspective to realize how beautiful you are.

again, a Dream.....

As I told you before that I've been active at local community. So yesterday my friend and I visited one of our children in care, Adi. We couldn't met him because he's still at school even though it's almost dark outside. So we talked with his mother instead. We asked how has he doing as we couldn't meet him often. In fact, last year is the last time I met him. Yes, we've been such a bad elder and I can't apologize enough for that. 

Back to the conversation with the mother, we talk long enough to know a little bit about Adi. He's been doing great except he got a little accident with his bike and broke a couple of his front teeth. He won some competition too, in astronomy as I remember. Then we talk about his dream to study mechanical engineering after he graduate which is soon. His mother told that it's been his dream since he was a little boy until the very now. Never change, not a single glitch. I was more than impressed. Wish can do more to help him achieve it. 

Somehow this conversation reminds me about a discussion with one of the senior volunteer. We talked about something and suddenly she asked about my dream. I avoided her question but she insisted, so I answered shyly. Wondering why because it wasn't a direct conversation. Then she said something that I can't and won't forget when I asked the reason of her question. "It's funny if you help the children to achieve their dream when you don't have one." Yeah, I couldn't agree more :)

CATCHIN' UP

What I've been doing so far?

There's nothing much I can tell actually. As I spent almost a month at home, laying around and do nothing.

I missed a lot of birthday this year, my big bro's, my lil bro's, my big sis, and my niece's. I think I missed my mom's birthday too as I choose to visit my big sis. Sad, but can't do anything about that.

When I met my high school friends, most of them already graduated. Maybe it's time for me to seriously doing my paper. Don't you think so?

HOMESICK

by Jeong Ji Yong

Home, I've come home,

But not to the home I yearned for

Wild pheasants brood eggs,
And cuckoos call in season,

But it doesn't seem like it's my hometown
A cloud float over the port 

Even today when I climb alone
to the end of the mountain,
White-flecked flowers warmly smile,

While grass flutes blown in my youth
yield no sound
on parched lips, so bitter.

Home, I've come home,
But only the sky of my longing is a lofty blue

quote quote on the wall...

Quote quote on the wall, tell me the wisest word in the world!
Yep, as I said in the latest post I will decorate my wall with quotes. So this is what I did.

"I have so much to do that I'm going to bed"

It's been a long time since my latest post. Things get really busy at work and my mom keep asking me about my undergraduate thesis. But sometimes, when you have so much to do, sleep is the best solution. So i just slept whole day on my long awaited day-off. LOL
Recently I found a Korean historical drama called Yi San. Yes, I like historical story. Drama, movie, novel, even comics. Then I found the lead actor really good. So I watch another drama and a variety show with him as a cast. The variety show called “Grandpas over flowers”, which is a trip for senior Korean actor and him as a porter. Suddenly I feel urgently to start exercise again. Well, if the grandpas can backpacking around the world, so do I but I need to prepare myself first. I hate running, so I choose to walk. I set 1 mile as my goal for the first and now I can walk until 2.5 miles *proud*

DO YOU LOVE HONEYCOMB?

 

YES I DO!!

Unfortunately it's really hard to find it in my neighborhood. Been looking for the DIY tutorial but got nothing. They usually use honeycomb paper which is harder to get :( 

And finally, after a long time searching  I found the tutorial from craftandcreativity.com. Here’s the link if you want to try too! I’ll make mine as soon as possible.
