[05.21.11] 10cm

10cm is an Indy band formed with Jung Yul Kwon (29, vocal) and Chul Jong Yoon (28, guitarist). The band was created in 2009, and it's been about two years since they first produced their first digital single album. The album contained a song called "Americano" which is getting more famous and famous everyday.

The lyrics are very simple, and its melody makes us hum. Their musics are created with only a guitar and a drum, but they have the best songs ever. Few songs, actually most of it, are rated R for its inappropriate lyrics. Even though I didn't listen to the songs, I can just imagine how good they are.  

They have been performing at Hong Ik University from the very bottom, and now they are developing everyday. Currently, there song "Americano" became the theme song for a CF, and they are stepping into famous television programs. I hope to see them more often on TV later.

[05.16.11] Lilac

The lilacs bloomed in our garden. The pictures were taken back in April, and it was one of the nicest flower I've ever seen in my life. Before this spring came, I had no interest in flowers or nature, but now I enjoy the smell and view of spring. If I had time, then I would have asked my dad to go some place where I can take more pictures of environment around me.

Even though I have time, my dad is too busy to go somewhere. pshh... I wish I was a grown person so that I can go anywhere I wanted to. The weather is becoming more summer-like and I like it except that I have sun allergy. My skins are going to get irritated!

[04.30.11] Plans for May

I think I didn't do so well in April. I tried to control myself, but it only lasted for few days. I've been spending a lot of time and money outside. I planned to pay more attention to school work for April, but it didn't work out very well. Since the end of year and final exams are coming, I should work harder. There are a lot of distractions in May...

[04.20.11] Daily Life

 

 I walked around and took pictures because I felt like not staying at home ...

[04.16.11] Spring!

The spring has finally come! The flowers are blooming and the weather is getting warmer and warmer. I like how Korea has a lot of flowers though they are not 100% natural. I just like how flowers and the city goes together well. They form a nice mixture of nature and busy city life. It's been a long time since I spent spring days in Korea. I guess I like it.

Converse family?

haha..

I went to Cheongdam again with my friends and hung out there. We didn't have any purpose of meeting, but I just wanted to get out of my house. Sometimes, I feel very stuffy and distant from the world I live in. Too much thinking bothers everything around me including school work. My plan for raising my grades up isn't working well right now. I FEEL DEPRESSED!

[04.12.11] In Jamsil

It was a normal Tuesday. I got off from the school bus and started to walk toward my house like a zombie because I was tired from a short nap on the bus. Even I could feel the tiredness that's shown on my face. When I was about to open the door, someone said something behind my back and I turned around in surprise because the voice sounded so familiar. 

Two of my friends were standing there, playful smiles on their faces. I don't know why and how they came all the way to my house, but they really surprised me. We ate something in my house since everyone was hungry and I got permission from my parents that I can go out and play with my friends. We just headed toward Lotte World and called two more friends to visit Jamsil. 

The other two friends and I met up at Jamsil station and played in front of Lotte Department Store. We had nothing to do except talking and making silly jokes. We took funny pictures and when it became too dark and chilly, we headed inside.

SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The flowers were so pretty even though it was kind of chilly that day. I love spring weather in Korea..

 I like how it rains pleasantly, neither not too hot nor not too cold.

I went home around 8 o'clock, worried about what my dad would say. Well, he didn't actually scold me or anything for being out for such a long time on a week day. I liked how I didn't have much homework on this day.

Diary entry for today

#1
It's been about 10 months since I came back to Korea. Until now, I've gone a lot of difficulties... including school problems and personal conflict. I think it's time for me to look back and try to improve my life style by realizing the lessons I've learned through out that time. Well, I guess I would have to try a lot harder from now on.





#2
April Fool's Day is coming! Should I at least try to trick someone? I was thinking about going around and saying that I'm moving back to New York, but then I think it's kind of random because the idea came from nowhere. What should I do?
