My 13th birthday has finally arrived. I guess I'm growing up. Second grade seemed like it has happened yesterday. I can still remember ever so clearly when I made friends with some amazing people and communicating with my favorite teacher, Mrs. Headstream. Third grade, fourth grade, fifth grade, six grade, and now, seventh. I am grateful for all the people who has been there for me since day 1. I still remember those times when I embarrassed myself, judging my own stupidity.

That's pretty funny. I still remember when I hated language arts and just reading which I absolutely disliked. But now, look at me, I'm here writing my own special moments, memories, and so on. This is another important birthday for me. In 4th grade, I remembered I hated the subject math. My mind always go blurry when I look at the confusing numbers of just word problems. And I still do, but what I can do to make it all better?

During the late of 2016, I met the people who I truly love and appreciate til' now. The kpop boy band, BTS. I've never been so grateful for them. At first, I was puzzled with what they were singing and saying. Then, I realized they weren't Americans and weren't singing in English. Now they are the most important people in my life. Listening to their music, laughing with their jokes, crying with them during hard times, just variations of emotions, thoughts, and feelings always roamed through my heart and my mind. Their music has brought me into a happy world where I can be free from my depression and "mental disorders."

Their messages through their songs taught fans (ARMYs) how to love themselves and appreciate who they were and who they are instead of sending sex and using drug messages like American music (not all, but quite a lot ) which I absolutely hate as well. I couldn't love myself because of my dumb imperfections that tries to bring me down. Many times, I have mentally broken down. I refuse to let anyone see my weak side. On YouTube, I watch those girls who has that perfect skin, perfect slender body, beautiful facial structures, but what do I get? I thought it was unfair, and mind you, I still do. But now, I think it's easier for me to try to just cherish who I am. And those people who has brought me happiness and joy are BTS, my parents, and my truthful friends. I can't thank them enough for all of this.

My skin is filled with problems, it seems like as if it currently has a war in my skin. I've been having skin troubles ever since the middle of 6th grade. I've tried so many medications for bettering my skin but none has worked. I've tried many home made remedies and tips for making your skin healthy but also hasn't done Magic for me as well. Now I'm just done trying to do this and that for my skin because there are better things in life to look for and do than just worrying about my skin. And that's conclusion for my skin story. Overall, I'd like to thank all the people who has helped and being there for me during my hardships and difficulties. I love you all very much more than the world can hold! Lastly, happy birthday to myself.
