ITAA's Warning.

Image
Today I just had my second session. After 2 British people - both man and woman - has their last say, I found myself crying a bit. After that. Mom. And I still got PILES of things to do, since my parents just initiated the whole moving process... But cut to the chase - It's the word toxicity that made me jump back to this blog. It's like this: <Oliver-Ssam (올리버쌤.) 링크:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwtH7WIXsVs > Let's say I want to watch more of that channel's ⬆️ show. Maybe for good 15 minutes or so, then I'm off - then that's not a problem at all for most modern people.  I know. You might rather find yourself feeling rather REFRESHED - and that's what social media does - of which I call it (sort of corny & embarrassing to speak it out loud for some reason) "The LaLa-Land Effect" - since it's gonna take you AWAY from circumstances IRL that you don't want and - at least temporarily - have you experience a simulation of the place...

Today.

…So I’m currently parked at the local library, while waiting for the doors to open. The drawing above is a 30-minute piece done on 5.5 x 8.5 IN obviously with pencil & paper… ….. My mom called me in abruptly yesterday to notify me that WE’RE MOVING. ALL OF A SUDDEN (*They tend to do that). Next thing I know I’m looking up all the employment sites in North Carolina, jotting down every keywords I remember from personal hygiene to social circles (?); by midnight my stepdad has already came watching porn all night and the next morning I find two Russian guys hauling all the furnitures from the house. ..So that’s what’s been going on so far, just to update. Am I worried about my future? Deeply so.

Mystery solved.

 So I ended up using pen... while it just turned out that my laptop's preview had color adjust setting and there I could (finally) adjust its exposure+. Work of coincidence... Below is another 10-minute piece. Very & vexingly/annoyingly 'snobbish', but can't help it. Longtime habits go hard. Personally I was just thinking how I would've ended up (*hypothetically) researching about Japanese EQ's (and yes emotional quotient), say that I WAS the scientist & was given the opportunity. ..Like, will it make all the 'Korean madness' I've endured over the years (never mind some 'legal issues' I've caused back then. Will tell later...) go away? Starting from school bullying (학교폭력), to major issues like Brother's Home (형제복지원) where my hometown was right in proximity where all the disaster have occurred in 80's..... While I pretty much can guess all those independence fighters from my birthplace's history book be more than skepti...

<*Please click to view.> ..I am afraid I might have to seek different ways just to upload especially for 'longer' pieces, besides myriads of other 'technical' issues - first and foremost due to the lag time it takes. Highly vexing, hey, but I didn't grew up in a rich family either (Does that sound about right?;). (*....For the last resort I could take, don't know why no matter how many times I edit the brilliance/light settings on my phone it just comes out blurry. I guess I should resort to using pen, since I never was a techie from the beginning. That evil feeling as if some childish being was controlling your every move in an mischievous way online. Brr.....) It is not fair, but who doesn't suffer from it (unless one has extreme amounts of privilege. I know) ..... Distracted mind & silence. Buddhism could not have been better antidote to 'return' one's set of mind into that of a Minimalist's. (Was it ven. Hyon Gak who said that?)...
