haneul: telling jeongwoo that he is an important person outside of work, that he helped her create happy memories, delivering a words of affirmation speech of times— better than a love confession even

also haneul: we need to go to the club about this

i also think love is forgiveness, because in the face of you who are wholly other, a danger, I am saying i will not resist

"But to find out the truth about how dreams die, one should never take the word of the dreamer."

"We reached Lake Shore Park, a city park laid out with rosebuds, fountains, bowling greens, picnic tables. It was empty now, but sweetly expectant of clean, white, well- behaved children and parents who would play there above the lake in summer before half-running, half- stumbling down the slope to the welcoming water. Black people were not allowed in the park, and so it filled our dreams." - Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye

would you like a cup of coffee? feels like spring, like continually sitting under the shade of a tree, like reading a pocket-sized book in a cafe at sunset, like trying earl grey for the first time. its people carry shadows of those you've known in the past, teachers who keep giving, mothers who only think of their kids, friends who keep you company in the long hours of the everyday. to Huh Young Man and Lee Ho Joon, thank you, thank you, thank you.

"loneliness is a self-fulfilling prophecy. those isolated from the world continue to isolate themselves, like clockwork. still, there are moments when friends become a light in the dark, they listen to your essay-long thoughts about your current watch, “this kdrama is something that can be so personal,” let you know of their sudden fame on TikTok, share their fears over a birthday dinner, voices hushed in the dim light of a family restaurant. they tell you getting a cat will do you good, that you should continue to write, they promise to look out, and then they do."

"I often joke about how being a monk is my ultimate calling, but asceticism seems too easy a pillar to attach myself to. Maybe the awareness that I have sought from Headspace sessions and running over the years was housed in the presence that comes from the cessation of a constant performance for strangers. The search for a good life ‘out there’ was a cop-out of the good life everywhere around me. And even if four months is too early to celebrate this new way of seeing, so be it. If we're not supposed to dance, why all this music?"

"I am now asking myself what kind of writing is it that I want to do. Is it that I plan to produce something that eats away at my soul in its abject bloodlessness, or do I choose to write in ways that breathe life into myself and into those who are happy to read it. While I believe I am still too young to go around renouncing any genre or method, I am asking why is it that writing, criticism and literary studies can often feel like a hasty, individualistic assembly line. Is it time itself that belabours us, or our resistance to tree time."

love is a hand that pushes your coffee cup towards you. the beans are imported into the country because it is not something the locals drink. love is in the hand that grinds the beans into a fine powder, in the tongue that tells a finer lie of already having it at home. love changes you, love keeps you safe when there is no roof to call your own.
