Ummm What Was That?

Hey diva, I have been immensely busy. Which is becoming the norm, but I honestly don't know how to feel about it when literally everyone is like yeah you're super busy, always doing something. Like it almost feels like it's coming from a place of jealousy? Not in a negative way, but in a way that feels like I'm being put on a pedestal. Is that the "price" of constantly putting yourself out there? Perhaps.  Lately, I've been trying to do things instead of thinking about doing things. And enjoying to process of it all more. Which is a lot harder than it seems. A saying that was brought up in my creative process class was, "If you do it, then you did it." Which resonated with me a lot. And going back to the enjoying the process, the result of whatever the fuck doesn't matter if you're doing that shi for the love of the game and truly following your heart. If it flops, it flops. But you did it. And tell me how many people in your vicinity can...

"This One’s For All My Bitches With Vulnerability Issues" Original Poem

This One’s For All My Bitches With Vulnerability Issues by Sumin Lee I brought a ladder to see you over this wall, Was this my wall or your wall? I tell myself that these bricks give me stability, I can lean on it when I’m tired. But I wonder what it would feel like to lean onto you. Yeah, come on in, I’m sorry my room is messy. If I had known you’d be here, I would have postponed my episodes. I don’t know if I like that I can be vulnerable with you, It feels way too easy. How was the traffic? Yeah, the construction outside my room has been going on for forever. I’m glad you made it here, We can sit in silence. I’d like to listen our hearts beat, That’s more than enough to know that We’re here for each other.

The Concept of Contextualizing

Hello princess, I just came across a tiktok video that said, "being the smartest person in the room is the most attractive thing that you can be." At first, I was taken back because I don't think I'd ever want to be the smartest person in the room. And I don't think I would find that attractive. I think I'd find the most emotionally intelligent person to be the most attractive. Smart ≠ Intelligent. Can you read the room? Can you sense the intricate social dynamics happening in the circle? Can you notice when the energy shifts and can you direct it? People are so differently knotted in the way that they're constructed that I don't think it'd be fair to distinguish smartness amongst each other. But also, even if you were the smartest person, are you able to contextualize different concepts and form your own opinions and ideas? Are you able to take A and B and create C? Or even Z? This is why I find it important to surround myself with people that gi...

The Highs and Lows of High School Football

Hi, Today I am writing to you from the deep crevice of a cave. Because I'm down bad. Mentally. Which is crazy because I was on W streak the whole day until I made a mistake in my art history group presentation. I guess I'll start with the positives. In my morning stretching class, we played frisbee because it was our last class. I ended up having a lot of fun and got some cardio in. Then I went up to the Kellogg House because our office was having a holiday celebration lunch. So I got free food and was able to connect with some technicians from the Maker Studio. Which will come in handy when I need to produce merch for projects I'm working on (me when I'm vague). Then we played a balloon popping game where you tie a ballon to your ankle and you gotta stomp and pop other people's balloons and save yours. I won with a three way tie lol and we all got gift cards. This was surprisingly was super fun. I haven't played direct contact sport in so long and I was like wa...

"You" Original Poem

You by Sumin Lee And I carry myself through the darkness Because I can feel the warmth of your smile The ground forms to your heartbeat The butterflies can guide me to you I reach my hand out To see if you’re there Tell me you’re here I don’t know where to go without you Do you remember our first When our eyes locked The door closed behind me Breathy air couldn’t escape you  Why won’t you be my sun Keep me in your orbit Intricate waves of your aura You’re my phenomena

Emergency Episode!!

Omg hi guys, I was just looking at my calendar and I realized that there are only 2 weeks left in the semester. Like one more week and then finals week. And something punched me and fast forwarded my brain to the end of next semester. Also known as my last semester. Like I know for a fact that's more concrete than the earth's core that it's going to be my fastest semester. And of course emo ahh indie ahh song ( Pointless Forever - ugly ) was playing in the background so I started feeling like a wet soggy leaf. I hate soggy leaves especially if they look crunchy but turn out to be soggy. GAHHHHH.  Anyways, I've been wanting to sit down and write about everything that's on my plate right now because I think not articulating what I'm going through is clouding my head. It's been hard to think and form coherent sentences lately and I fear I must face the reality of myself. Okay, here is the list: taking 13 units (honestly not that bad but the commute is making it...

Holy Glaze - boygrim

Hey twin! I'm back with another episode of Holy Glaze. So I have a friend named Isaac that I met earlier this year. We bonded over hating overly sad emo bands (which I still stand by). And we've worked together through aka musique, including throwing his birthday show. I remember that show vividly because everyone was sooo stressed while I was like let's just get it going idk? And Isaac came up to me throughout the show talking about how successful the turnout was. He was very happy. I'm not sure if that was the first time I saw him perform, but it was definitely one of the firsts. And the energy was insane. I actually don't remember too much of the actual performance because I was busy working door and making sure everything else was good but like trust me, it was poppin. There's this sense of energy from him and the band when they perform that's different from other bands. Maybe because they're alt rock? Who knows. But like trust me. Okay, let's di...
