for a thousand years

:')

I know I will regret this later if I do it now, but sometimes I wish that I can just drop out from here and go work at some cafes while taking proper languages classes, gaining the experiences and knowledge that I'm looking for.

As someone who majors in English, the question whether I'm going to be a teacher is asked very often. My mom suggested that I should be one, as well. I have nothing against English teachers. In fact, I have some of my own favourites. However, I have never thought that teaching is for me.

Recently, I got to know this quite-famous-but-still-not-that-famous person. He is a part-time ESL teacher in Korea. Without really expecting a reply, I e-mailed him, asking for his opinion. And he replied!

I'm not going to retype everything he told me, but basically, he said in the end it's up to me, because teaching needs passion. He said teaching is not really his thing, but he's doing it for experience, and of course, money.

What am I trying to convey here. Hmm.

Well, to be completely honest, I just wanted to show off that he actually replied my e-mail. Not that you know who he is though. But still, his advices are good.

I'm considering.

Isn't it amazing how much a small thing can play a huge part in your life?

A few years back, at a Pay Less Books warehouse sale, I came across this book. The cover and the title attracted me. I picked it up, turned it over to read the synopsis, and decided to buy it right away.

But since at that time, I had a little too many books, my mother told me to leave a few. I looked at the book and wondered whether I should put it down.

I didn't.

That book, has actually changed my life. As cheesy as it sounds, that book became quite a turning point in my life. Not that it was the greatest story or a remarkable autobiography of someone amazing, but it was just a simple love story.

That book, became a reason why I picked up my pencil and started writing again.

That book, is the reason why I have written so much today, for it has become a part of me.

That book, is the reason why I can dream the impossible dreams now. Not that I want to become a professional writer.


Thank you, Mary E. Pearson. One more book, and my collection of your works will be complete.

You would, sooner or later, or even now, have one or more photos that you really like. That photo doesn't have to be a photo where you look your best, or a photo taken at a place that you love, but that photo can be just a simple photo of you where you look normal, or even horrible.

I do have several photos that I really treasure. One of them, is the display picture that I have on this blog currently.

Recently I finally realized the reason why this something happened and changed our lives after five years it took place. It was because we were, and still are, very similar to each other.

Have you ever learned a truth so funny that it saddens you?

imagine and dream 

then the world will change to how you want it to be
