I was walking to school as usual, listening to my favorite kpop band.As soon as I took off the headphones and put them in the cupboard, I heard children laughing in the corridor. I knew that there weren't many Koreans here at school in Australia, and if there were any, they were older. When I went to singing lessons after classes, I was depressed by the fact that I had no chance of becoming an idol. The singing teacher says I sing beautifully, but I don't believe in myself. It's as if I lost faith in myself because of these children from my pathological school.The singing lesson lasted 3 hours, my lovely lady was also Korean. She told me to sing Dream from babymonster. I sang this song to her without any effort. Babymonster was my 2nd favorite band after Mamamoo.When I came back, I was listening to Hip by Mamamoo. When I returned home, my mother was waiting for me with a delicious dinner. That is, kimchi. Kimchi was very tasty, and the tastiest was when my grandma flew from Korea to Australia and cooked it for me. I ate and thanked him for dinner. I put down the dishes and ran to my room to do my homework. Today was one big failure, or so I thought.  After I finished the assignment, I sat on my phone and looked for some auditions for K-pop studios. Unfortunately for me, there have been no auditions so far.When I was thinking like that, I didn't even remember when I fell asleep with my head on the desk. I wasn't particularly comfortable, but after a while I felt my dad take me in his arms and calmly carry me to the bed. He kissed me on the forehead and quietly said goodnight.I've never been so tired before. Happy that tomorrow is the weekend. I can sleep longer and not see those idiots from school.I dreamed that I was on a big stage, everyone was applauding me and that I was in the most famous K-pop group. Unfortunately, I knew I wouldn't succeed. I didn't know how to dance or I just hadn't discovered my talents yet. I really am 13 years old and I go to the 7th grade of primary school where the school year has just started. And I feel like I'm a hundred years old. I woke up around 10 am. I went to make breakfast. I made sandwiches with tomato, chives, Parma ham and cheese. As usual, they were delicious. And as usual, I had to be home alone for half the day because my parents were at work and my grandmother was flying to Korea yesterday. I didn't have much to do, so I quietly sang some babymonster, mamamoo and blackpink songs. I wanted to go to dance classes, maybe then I would discover my talent. I'll wait until the evening until my parents get ready. I will then ask them if they would sign me up for such dance lessons. I decided to watch YouTube because I didn't have much else to do. I saw some funny animals there. It was really funny how they took their food or fell over. I didn't even know when the time had passed so quickly. It was almost lunch time and I decided to order a pizza with very spicy sauce and chili peppers. As a person who loves spicy food, I think this pizza is delicious. I called and in the meantime I made myself a cold coffee with whipped cream, ice cream and raspberries. And while enjoying this delicious coffee, I waited for the pizza. When the pizza arrived it was 3 p.m. I ate a few pieces and left the rest with my parents. When my parents came home it was 6 p.m., they ate the last slices of pizza and I told them about my wonderful idea of dance lessons. They agreed and I jumped for joy. I hugged them with tears of happiness in my eyes. I also found out that I had the whole week off due to some failure at school. And my first dance class is tomorrow, Sunday.
