Hi there! (what a cheesy start...)
Right, so, first thing's first - Welcome to my blog!
In complete honesty, I created this blog last year, and I just have bunch of drafts saved and I haven't posted anything! What a horrible blogger - I'm embarrassed to call myself a blogger.
Anywho, I've decided to start my blog, which should have been August 7th, 2013, but here I am finally with my first, OFFICIAL blogpost on March 20th, 2014!
Let me just briefly introduce myself and tell you guys about what this blog is about, how I came to create it :)
My name is Abby and my last name is...................... let me give you a hint, I'm Korean.
Yes, I'm Korean! But currently I'm attending an international school here at Korea, so I speak English. Actually, I only lived in the states less than a year while I was in fourth grade. It was a massive, massive change for me, regarding the language, environment, friends, just much about everything. The first day of school in the states was... well, it wasn't too bad, just the fact that I could not speak English at all. I knew a few lines, like "Hi", "How are you?", "Bye", but other than that, I was completely "mouthless"(funny story here, not about the first day, but the word "mouthless"... I actually googled the word to see if was a real word. Since Merriam Webster tells me it is, I guess "mouthless" is a word. Thanks Merriam!) Anyways, back to my story, on the second day, surprisingly, I had the courage to ask two girls, named Ally and Libby if I can play with them. I believe my exact words were "Can I play with you guys?" I don't even know how I said that.. I guess I picked on a few lines on the first day? I honestly have no idea. They soon became my best friends and I still keep in touch with Ally, but unfortunately, I haven't heard from Libby, and she probably hand't heard from me either, so I'm in no position to blame her. Hopefully she'll see this :) After my fourth grade year passed(I attended fourth grade in the states), I had to come back to Korea... I didn't want to come back, but I didn't have any choice back then. Leaving my apartment, friends, and school behind, I left the states, and came to Korea. I stayed in my grandparent's for a few weeks, because the international school I was applying to was much near my grandparent's than my house. And yes, it is the same school that I'm attending right now(they have all elementary, middle, and high school, and I'm planning on attending high school here as well!) I got in, and it was probably the best day of my life, because there's a long story that I'll probably share sometime later, so keep up with my blog :)
Now, I'm still in middle school, and soon I'll be in high school...I'm terrified... a LOT. I'm not joking. If you have tips for me to "survive" high school, please, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I would truly appreciate it!
Well that was just loads about my fourth grade year 'till today, but hope you guys enjoyed listening to a boring story of mine :)
Blog time!
The reason I created this blog was I've always wanted to have a blog. My first blog was going to be about beauty/fashion related, but then I thought I honestly don't know much about it, and didn't know where to start. I deleted that one a long ago, and created another one, titled "Be a Chameleon, Not a Butterfly"! But you know what though, I'll occasionally post my OOTD aka Outfit Of The Day if you guys request it, and maybe do a haul as well!
About this blog....... it's title is "Be a Chameleon, Not a Butterfly". This was the title of my essay about "This I believe", and I actually found this statement, quote, however you want to call it, while I was reading a blogpost, and I must have really liked it :) to put it on my blog, and my essay title. So, thank you, whoever came up with it :) The statement inspires me to be on my own, and don't let other people get in your way, and finally to live my life, not others. This is really all this blog is about, well I cannot make any promises though... I'm not a very good conformist.
I guess it's time to close my intro and make this my first, ever official post on my blog! Wow!
(To be honest, I don't feel that exiting as I may sound like because it's already 1 in the morning...)
Well I'm off to bed now(I stayed studying for a big test and also "some" procrastination......)!
Hope you guys enjoy reading my blog, thank you!
