WHATS POPPIN (Nan)

HELLO PEOPLE WHAT IS UP WITH LIFE IT HAS BEEN FOREVER SINCE I LAST WATTPADED AND WOOOOWWWWWW LOOK WHO'S BACK FOR A WEE BIT.

There are multiple things that need to be talked about but for starters let's talk about the Hallyu Wave. IF YOU'VE BEEN LIVING UNDER A ROCK IT'S THE KPOP AND KDRAMA WORLD.

So I've been into KPOP since like 6th grade with like 2PM, Super Junior, Shinee, Girl's Generation and BoA and wow has kpop come a long way or what? I remember people making fun of me for listening to kpop back then but it's basically taken over mainstream pop now. Everyone knows kpop. And I love it. Spread the LOVE

I'm so happy. Yay. Happiness. Joy (oops Red Velvet ref.)

Also wow college is fun which I completely never expected after the shithole that was IB

And I have friends. Which is great. And cool assignments and homework that I actually like doing and wow I feel like a happy nerd. Which is also great.

I feel like I'm in a much happier place now then I was a year ago. Not that I've not had sad events in my life. I lost my grandfather to the last stage of Dementia (started off from Alzheimer's and just snowballed). I haven't cried so much in a decade. Since it has been an actual decade since I lost my other grandfather.
I will definitely miss him. He was a source of great comfort to me as I was growing up, with never ending puns and witty one liners, the person who would speak gibberish to me and act like we had our own secret code. The person who remembered his German till his last day, even after forgetting everything else. Who even after forgetting everything would call me Nanan, even when he didn't know who I was. He has never failed to make me smile and I will forever feel the strength of his handshakes and pats on my shoulder.

However, I'll take a leaf from the old Pollyanna book, and just say I'm glad that he's out of his suffering and is in a better place now.

But my grief aside, I have had a phenomenal year in college, doing things I love to do, which makes me feel like a kid again, and this freedom is something I'd never want to lose. I guess it's right what they say about how you feel when you do the things that you love.

I have my anime, kpop, kdramas (dramama ramama ramama hey), I have friends both back home and here in college, I feel so happy and grateful, and all things nice and beautiful praise the heavens life is good and it feels great.

At this point I'm seriously considering whether or not to post this, but I feel like we, The Cereal Killers need a revival. So that's that for an update.

Thanks and signing out,
Nan
