Random thought but I can’t lie — the way iShowSpeed gained the world’s love is kinda wild. Dude’s not perfect, gets mocked left and right (sometimes racially too), but his raw sincerity just hits different. Every 15–25 y/o I know wants him to visit their country — that’s real connection. I don’t watch him much, but his love for Ronaldo and the way he throws himself into everything reminds me how powerful it is to just try. Lately I’ve been doing the same — chasing new experiences, collecting memories, staying far away from the “boring” version of me.

Friendship

There’s a kind of friendship that hits different. The one where even if you don’t talk often, they’ll be mad if you don’t open up when things go wrong. The kind that knows every side of you — even the ones you hide — and still shows up, talks straight, wishes you well without envy. Your wins are theirs, your losses too. I’m far from a perfect friend, but with the closest ones, I try to be that person — because these deep talks, even from miles away, give a kind of peace that’s hard to describe. Some people will never get how fulfilling it is to be fully seen and still fully accepted. Not just the guys, but some of my girl friends too — real ones through and through. You know I’m talking about you. I know you’re reading this. Thank you for being in my life. I might not say it much, but I love you all ❤️

Not saying I'm proud of it, but I can swear in 10+ languages

🇰🇷Random case at metro:

A woman from the Christian church came to us and started talking in English, as we're foreigners.

Her: Jesus will come back soon, you have to accept him
Us: sorry, we're Muslims
Her: I see Jesus in you. You know the nuclear war is upcoming, he'll save you... (handing some church card)
Us: no, thank you, we're good
