view from my balcony~


If you look hard enough, even those clouds that seem to stay pretty in place for the world to gaze at move on their way too.

I used to curse myself for having such a visual memory because it made it so painful whenever I had to say goodbye, because all I could focus on was the fact that it was all over... those good times and conversations becoming a thing of the past, it just absolutely killed me because I just didn't want it to end. Meeting good people that you can connect with that you have to say bye to... I should be used to it by now and this definitely isn't the first time it's pained me to do so but it just never, ever gets easier.

But despite the fact that things will inevitably change, despite the fact that we probably won't be able to have those same spontaneous nights of staying up talking about the most random of things, sometimes tearing as topics of those deeper, scarring times of life came up, at least I can hold onto my memories, knowing that I now have more priceless moments to look back on whenever my thoughts drift in reverse.

These are the moments I live for - these are the moments that prevent me from ever getting completely down on life. Thank you for the good times... I wish you only the best in life.

Goodbye.

Oh, it's a view from the balcony! :D

I hope this was a positive status! Are you leaving the site for a bit?
Failure is not falling down over and over again. Failure is refusing to get back up.

No~ just a tribute to someone I have to say bye to today haha. Goodbyes drive me crazy... explains why nearly all my blogs involve it in some way or another haha. Does it read as if I'm leaving the site??

Oh, it read as if it referred to a specific event, but I interpreted it as a goodbye for everyone here~

Nice tribute, in any event!

Where I live, there's a little island of forest and water in the middle of all the suburban houses and lights...I was on a night time walk just now and I paused, looked into the woods for the first time this summer, and saw a thousand lights decorating the trees and darkness and water. Tried to snap a photo on a smartphone, but I guess the light of fireflies is too faint to be captured. So strangely enough when I came home, I was really happy to see this photo

Thanks for sharing the photo and fragment of your life. It's written beautifully. I don't mean to sound weird although I guess I can't avoid it in saying this - I find it miraculous that you are the source of the angelic sc2gears voice, speedy bw translations, legs, marvelous photography, AND thoughtful posts. It's nice being able to read something like this on a tl blog.

I know how you feel, staring into those clouds just before the skies turn dark. (Too bad there's light pollution preventing you from seeing the true skyline.) Goodbyes are hard, especially knowing that you'll never see them again for some time. Cherish those memories that you have, and slowly let them go.

With every sunset, there's a sunrise that follows.
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

The internet and Skype mean never having to really say goodbye. Unless someone dies. Then it's a real bummer.
Do an arranged marriage if she's not completely minging, and don't worry about dancing, get a go-kart, cheers.
