And maybe it is up to those who have realized their power and the power of their voice to show others that they can do it too. ]]> Mon, 26 Jan 2004 13:52:00 EST http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/13772 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/13727
Well, I've started a new life in Washington DC, and I'm finally living in the US....one thing I never imagined myself doing. But here I am starting over again with new people, a new roommate, and a new place. Even after being exposed to American culture my entire life, but living here I have to say is a whole different story. So college is pretty good here and I have to say that in just a matter of months I have changed quite a bit. I feel like a different person here and that I can finally put my past behind me. I have great friends, and finally I can be on the same continent as the majority of people I know. As for love, yes I have found it and maybe in part lost it too. I've heared that it is possible to fall for someone in just a matter of months, but I've also learned that it isn't as hard as you think it is to move on. To mend the hurt and be able to open your heart for something new. After weeks of misery, I'm okay now and I can finally move on. In just two weeks I've gained so much more than what I have lost. Back to singledom again...this is how life is. And I am already looking forward to Spring Break where I'll be seeing Dumi!!! I love the fact that I can just call him up whenever I want to talk to him.

Well, I'll go into more detail of my life at another time. So keep checking, I promise I won't disappear off to the abyss again...lol. ]]> Sat, 24 Jan 2004 23:43:00 EST http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/13727 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/9915 Fri, 11 Jul 2003 01:41:00 EDT http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/9915 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/8852 - Soren Aabye Kierkegaard (1813-1855)

My mother used to nag me all the time, enough to drive me insane...but I only used to concentrate on the things she said in which I didn't want to hear, instead of looking at the bigger picture. And now...well things are different...a lot different. I'm beginning to see how important little things between family may be, no matter how small.

You figure new things out everyday... :P]]> Sat, 26 Apr 2003 16:43:00 EDT http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/8735 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/8658

Regardless, there will be other experiences for me to experience.....but first I gotta get through the four weeks of intensive exams that I have starting in May. Just when I thought you could stop working. Then I'll probably be off to somewhere in North America, or Korea...but let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Arghhhhh! See? I just got into another fight with her, that's all we do....argue, fight....but no, she can never find a way to apologize for anything.

Just had to get that out......otherwise I'd be fuming....

If this is what we as a species are capable of...and that is what we have to show to one another, than I'd rather not be any part of it. I can see those images just running through my head over and over again...and I don't konw what to do with myself. I don't know what to do.....

It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.

There's nothing enlightened about shrinking
so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us;
it is not just in some of us- it's in everyone!

And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously
give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others!"

-Nelson Mandela, 1994

Chocolate is definitely food for the soul!
And nope, you can't ever say no to chocolate....]]> Wed, 06 Nov 2002 10:09:00 EST http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/6556 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/6402 I know you don't talk of it.
Your lips, shut so tight, are self-mocking,
you take blame so harsh,
as though the world should be tended
and your shoulders must bear the weight.
Dignity is yours, and grace,
but not forgiveness, you never could
let your own past lie.
Judas had nothing on you: your guilt is inside you,
festering somewhere in your stomach,
or mouth, or in the bowls of your cupped palms.
If I came too close, you would burn me
with the strength of your wounds. Your secrets have
become my own, your grief mine.
You have of me what little I could give.
The token anecdotes, the memories that seem to hurt
but that have gone stale like wine.
I would give more, if you would take, if I had more to give,
I, too, am mute in my pain.]]> Sun, 20 Oct 2002 15:43:00 EDT http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/6402 22.2833333 114.1522.2833333114.15 http://HyeJin.tigblog.org/post/6249
