Interests: More about me, during quarantine, I’ve had more time to do and choose between my hobbies! Since I’ve talked about my interests within gardening before, now, I’ll talk about baking and juicing. I’ve often found that I indulge in the simple things in life more… learning diverse ways to prepare yummy, new dishes and things to drink really spark joy! I’ve also always been into shopping (or window shopping when I’m not financially able), and I love being inspired to recreate designs with my sewing and jewelry tools; I am also find it so satisfying how I can achieve a similar appearance in jewelry and shirts or dresses but it would be completely unique because I made it myself, and it is also more environmentally sustainable! I also really enjoy traveling, and often wish I could’ve fit more travels in before quarantine… I think I just have this hunger to experience it all someday. If you asked me where I’d want to go if I won free flights, my answer would often change! It’s the fun in being a tourist, sure it can be expensive even if I don’t buy the touristy souvenirs, but I enjoy experiencing the culture in each place, and capturing the fleeting moments with my camera, and having that ability to beautifully communicate with the world the things that I saw, and how they each made me feel. Lastly, while I enjoy being able to choose between all those activities during quarantine, I also just enjoy relaxing to the humor of television! As of right now, my all-time favorite Korean drama would have to be “My Love From the Star,” and for American show it would have to be “Bones.” For my favorite American movie, it is hands-down “Confessions of a Shopaholic” … I may or may not have had a spending issue at one point in my life, but I still enjoy the humor in that movie and can always find moments in my life where I can relate or quote that movie!
