Home Sweet Home

I am back in Denmark again, and I must say that I have missed good ol' cold Denmark very much. I never thought that I would be so happy to see a slice og ryebread haha.
So when I got home, I saw a little bush in my garden, which had edible red berries on it. So I decided to make something.

I am happy to be back in Denmark of course, however I do miss my family in Vietnam. Every time I look at those pictures we took in Vietnam, I always worry that some of my family member will forget me, especially my young nieces.

I remember that the day before I went back to Denmark I pinky-promised them all that I will come back to visit them!

Pictures from my vacation will be up soon! Only a couple of them though, since there are too many.

MIND STRUGGLES AND METEOR SHOWERS

So I am really sorry that I haven't been updating very much and that is because I am going through my exams and other school stuff

I really want to keep you guys updated and such but it is quite difficult to also let my studies have the top priority.

These couple of days have been like a living hell for me, like seriously I haven't been sleeping well due to too much stress and so little time. I have been completely shutting myself indoors and I haven't had the slightest thought of even going outside in my garden
You know that state?
When you are in the middle of finals week and evey little thing just becomes a giant meteor shower fucking everything up?
I was in that state for quite a long time, perhaps a week

Luckily now, I only have one test to go and then I have to pack to go on vacation.

This year I am going to the Philippines to visit my Lola (Grandma in Tagalog). And omgosh, I havenøt been in the Philippines for 8 years, and I am really excited!
I will also be going to Vietnam, because I have to visit my grandma for the last time and this trip is the trip I am the most excited about because my father's family in Vietnam haven't seen me in 10 years.
I am really really excited!

Only 4 days!

But yeah, right now I am struggling with my last oral presentation/test thing..

So where are you guys going for summer?

I'M SORRY

I'm sorry that I don't have the smallest figure

I'm sorry that I don't have the perfect hair

I'm sorry that I don't have the prettiest

face

I'm sorry that I don't have the best clothes money can buy

I'm sorry that I don't wear make-up

I'm sorry that I don't have many friends

I'm sorry that I don't satisfy you

I'm sorry that I am not perfect

I'm sorry for being me

No PAIN no GAIN

A lot of people have asked me how I always am able to keep up with my work-out routine
It actually simple: Goal and ambition
When it comes to what one wants, it is a matter of goal and ambition

Of course there are some days where I just think that I am never going to make it and that I am a lazy-ass (let's be honest here)

Therefore I always keep a thing or two in mind when I work out:
 - A 1-hour workout = 4 % of your entire day (therefore, no excuse)
 - Working out will probably not change my weight, but I will get fit (toned muscles and tight tummy)
 - It is okay if I do not run everyday, just as long as I do some kind of workout, depending on what I want to change (squats for a toned butt and legs)
 - ALWAYS have good music on hand when working out

I like working out, especially running, because I feel like I can release all that stress and release my inner BEAST

So to all those who are struggling with getting started on working out, just keep this in mind:
Don't cry about the results you didn't get with the work you didn't do.

I know it's hard to even consider starting, but think about you enjoying your results in the future

Real me

Hey again. Sorry for being so awful at blogging and stuff
School stuff y'know
Anyways I have considered making my hair permanently curly or wavy. I am seriously sick of my pinstraight asian hair. It is just plain boring and flat. I really want hair with some sort of texture, but i am not sure yet.

Why World?

So I was on my instagram just a moment ago, and I saw a picture of these two young ladies who had this instagram account ''asiansareugly'' or something. I went to their account and I saw a lot of hatecomments. And I mean A LOT. They had posted pictures of asian people, tagging them and they have typed things such as ''asians are so fucking ugly'' and ''asians can go to hell''.
That just made me think about a lot of things.
These two young ladies, looked like they were 10 or something. was this meant to be a joke? If it was, you fxcked it up. I know what some of you might think: ''don't be so harsh, they're only children''
Let me tell you somehting: Yes of course they are only children and yes, they still got a lot to learn, but when it comes to respect towards other people, that excuse is invalid.
I also saw a lot of backup accounts such as: _asiansareugly and asiansareugly3 just in case the original account would be deleted.
I believe in freedom of speech, but it comes with something called RESPONSIBILITY

Soon after, I saw another picture where the same persons had removed their old account and made a new one called ''asiansarebeautiful_2013''
They had one picture of themselves and over 50 hatecomments
It's really shocking, because it maybe was meant to be a joke, but it just went out of conntrol. Some people just need to realize that if they want attention in some way good or bad, they must also face the consequences.

One last thing
World, get your shxt together

Never go back

When I look at the past, every memory, every little fragment runs through my head
I miss the times I used to be innocent, freeminded, free
I miss the times I used to be imaginative and creative
I miss the worlds I used to create which only I understood and no one else
I miss the trees, the flowers and the sun shining on my bare feet
I miss running in the valleys, rolling down the hills.
I miss the friends I imagined in the worlds
I miss the time where everyone appreciated my imagination.
I miss the friends, worlds, thoughts.

I miss my younger self
