JANUARY 2016: Moving to Korea.
Can I tell you a secret? I think I’m in love my music instructor…
Honestly, I’ve always Korea loved Korean culture and their country and everything. But moving out SUCKS ASS!! Even if the moving from California to Seoul was smooth, I hate being shake up in my regular life. What sucks even more is that me and my dad had to leave in the middle between semester.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not complaining. Ok ok, I am complaining and so what? I had to leave all my friends, even though I know I will see them again since as you know they all travel to Seoul in between split and everything. But hey, still sucks ok, I’m a 21 years old girl, I still feel like a teenage, and leaving all your friends behind. Of course as you all mentioned on last month post, I could’ve asked my dad if I could stay with my guardian (if you’re new here it’s Jack Etienne owner of esports organisation Cloud9). But I didn’t want to leave my dad on his own. I will never, but anyway… I know that you guys want to know more about that music instructor, he was introduced in the first class as a part time he is supposed to stay for 6 months since he is apparently super famous. I had no idea who he was since I wasn’t that much into K-pop. But damn is he cute, ok ok anyway. So he was introduced most of the girl and guy had freaked out, they were all talking for a minute before going back to the subject: ME! I was the new students, most of it foreigners. I’m fluent in Korean so it was easy to introduce myself, most of the students were impressed to see I was fluent.
I had made a friend, his name his Chan but you guys all know Chan, he was raise in New York and moved to Korea when he was 12 years old (for the one flying by on this particular month update). And he is into esports as well, so I was happy I had someone to rely on once I arrived in Korea, we had already met before and his been one of my best friends since forever:
- Ok, can we get our new student to the front of the class? Please Elisabeth come, I get up of my sit and show myself to the audience of around 50 students, 2 teachers and the instructors whom I tried not to look out on my way to the front. Introduce yourself
- Hello, I am Elisabeth Johenson, I was born in Sweden, raised in both France and California, I am 21 years old and… I have start to study music in California when I entered UCLA about 2 years ago, I have taken many breaks into my student’s life to work in esports, most of the time to be a coach, now I’m trying to focus on streaming and studying. Hum, so yes that is why I am 21 in third year.
- Welcome to the class Elisabeth, I bowed down as I tried my hardest to escape the situation but the teacher said not too. No, no, not so fast young lady, we have a tradition for new students who comes in, we ask them to showcase their talent, so please do us the favour. I was a tad stressed.
- Ok, so hum… I guess I can sing Make You Feel my love by Adele.
- I can play the… He said mumbling as I was already taping my finger on the piano. Since Adele and maybe some Sam Smith were the only song I knew on the piano, but I can tell you I feel Adele on another spiritual level.
And so I had to play the piano and sing in front of a fresh new crush. What an embarrassment, I don’t think I missed a note but gosh was I scared. AND, when I finished everyone applause, not because it’s me because it was a performance, and the assignment were in for the semester and : It was said, after class as I went out with Chan.
We obviously speak in English to shade people whenever we can.
- So have you heard the news?
- No, how could I? I smiled at Chan
- Well, apparently, the reason why Mister MIN Yoongi was in our class, is because he is going to choose someone from our class to sing a song for him. Actually I heard a guy and a girl.
- Ow wow! What’s Yoongi though, I mean, where does he come from, why was everyone so excited about him, we were now almost at the subway station.
- Ow my little American Girl, BTS. BTS is one very popular band in Korea!
- Oh, wow. I was both shocked that he was part of a famous band but also that he called ME, his best friend… American since he knows how proud I am to be Swedish
- Look, I don’t want to say anything but, he just wouldn’t stop looking at you. Since the beginning of the class, he started to tease me.
- Well yea, I was practically at the centre of the class today, teacher kept on asking me question and I had to sing. How embarrassing and stressful.
- WHAT? He looked at me shock, that was beautiful, bitch you Adele, I felt you, I wanted you to make me feel your love. We both sits at the terrace of a café far from our University for an hours working on some assignment or just talked, he showed me all of BTS and I joked about it for a second:
- I got 3 million subs on YouTube though, almost the same amount of their twitter, I laughed as he did too.
- So self-centred, he raised his eyes, why are you in University though for real, I was genuinely curious, because you are kind of a big deal right, last time I checked you stream you had like... 3k viewers or some shit, and when you told me you were going to come with me in Uni I was chocked! And then we didn’t really had time to talk when you moved in I wanted to ask you in person
- Honestly I just wanted to go to class, I don’t want to burn out and stay at home all day. I took this photography class I have zero fucking idea why though, but I like photo so might as well just fill in my time but the head-master said I couldn’t go to the 3rd year class, he accepted that I’d go in second year class only because I guess there’s no point I take a 3 years course If I finish my diploma this year, and then stream…
- And have you’ve learned music in Cali?
- Well, our teacher was kind of bad, so I tried to learn by myself. But it was hard as fuck. I passed but like barely
- Ow look who’s going to take some lesson from mister BTS because she needs it so bad , please Min Yoon-gi OPPA, I really need your help, he said in a high pinched voice, imitating me. I simply smile, he never hurts me in any way when he did that, he was really exaggerating every move and I know he’s a drama students, so I’m ok
- Oh come on, I can’t , he must be so busy, I’ll never have the gut anyway, I’m like super shy.
- I’ll do it for you. I laugh.
- You’re going to embarrass me!
- I promise I’ll try not to, might be hard though, you’re American. I was always frustrated to be called American. I made an angry face as he laughed.
So it appears that this was a competition. Do I really want to win? I actually really don’t care, It’s bad that I’m going to say this but. I’ll stop this year after I graduate in psychology, it’s pretty dumb, I mean, I know I have to have a diploma just in case, but for the moment I feel like I have enough. I might sound cliché but I can’t wait for more music class and just watch him all day. Ok ok, enough talking about this,
Today I am very pleased to tell you that after MILLIONS of hours of talking, I am finally sponsored by Logitech. AND: Giveaway in two days on my stream with the new spiciest equipment!
That’s it for this month post, I’ll see you guys in the next one.
And oh, by the way, I start my photography class next week so wish me all luck.
Love You all IzzieJH xx.
_________________________
The week after that was pretty chill. I didn’t really have much to do, assignments were pretty easy but Chan was sick so I went to your class on my own. I couldn’t go to music class because dad asked me to come and help at work, I had already met several players and made great friends. But today was photography class. Because of Chan I was starting to get sick but that was the most interesting class and after I missed music I didn’t wanted to miss this one. On my way to Uni I went for a coffee, my sunglasses on even if there was no sun. I felt more tired and sick to death.
Izzie : Gosh Chan I’m going to kill you, you gave me your freaking flu I feel like I could die!
Chan : I’m sooooo sorry, let’s make it up for missing each other this week, I pay dinner on Friday If we both feel ok?
Izzie : If I’m not dead ok.
Once arrived at Uni I kept on watching my cup, yawning as I watched my phone with one hand. Bag in-between my leg (it’s St Laurent that bitch ain’t never touching that damn floor) and my cup of coffee hanging low in my hand. I was being nonchalant, I mean I looked nonchalant, I was actually too tired to move!
Once the teacher arrived I made sure to sit where no one would. In the middle of a rang at the back of the class. Most of the students liked to sit in the middle all together with friends. Today I wanted to be left alone since Chan wasn’t here. I sat down while thinking how could I ever leave my bed being sick to my like this, I can only hope this class will be interesting. Around 10 minutes the door of the class opened as someone came in saying sorry and sitting down right next to me after scanning the room. Why me though?
- Hi, he said, as he leans onto me for a second, as I were trying to stay awake. Iscanned him for a second, it’s HIM. What was he doing here? What are you doing here my lady? Those words instantly woke me up from my coma, so he was a flirter, I am not really surprised, but yep, I definitely have zero chance to be with him. Why was I thinking of course I have zero chances with an IDOL as Chan likes to call him.
- Well, I take classes here, I could ask you the same question though. I mean, don’t you have better things to do?
- I like photography and thought it would be nice to take class. I nod in approval of his answer. You didn’t show up to class this week right? He tried his best to hide his interest in me but he really wanted to know me better. Since I entered the class room, I was like nothing he had seen before, I was beautiful to him, I seemed friendly, nice and soft, but at the same time I felt cold, and cool… He liked me.
- Yea my dad called me in, he needed me at his work, he still isn’t fluent in Korean and… yea, I’m sure you had plenty of work on your side with the other students, so… I kind of know… He looked at me his eyes focusing on mine listening to my every word but I had stopped talking, he had founded them bluer then last time, I looked intrigued as I kindly smile, tilt my head to the side and asked calmly, hey, what’s up? Something wrong with my face? He replied evenly calm
- No, it’s just, they look… Blue. I look at him in a strange smile, how could he have seen my eyes were not blue, no how would he even remember the colour of my eyes.
- Indeed, they are more of a greenish brown, he was listening carefully. It’s just I like to change with the mood, so I have lance whenever I feel like I’m in a different mood.
- What mood are you in right now?
- I actually don’t really know, it’s just in my mood, but most of the time, tired, that’s actually a lot of the time, but I felt like it was suiting with my outfit, so I just went all in.
- Oh, yea indeed, it suits you very well. I smiled once again as I tried to understand him. He felt like a very secretive person. I mumbled thanks as I blushed a bit and so did he. We both look away feeling a bit, strange. As we now listened closely to the class, we kept on looking at each other at some point but couldn’t catch each other eyes. We were like teenagers.
At the end of the class, we walked in silence for a bit, not even noticing we had followed each other pass, we were both just too scared to say anything that would ruin something. When he finally had the courage to talk to me again he realised I was few meters away so he run for a bit to catch up on me. I was looking at the grey sky, I love snow and it was going to snow soon. I didn’t look at him but I felt he was next to me
- It’s going to snow, I smiled.
- Yes. I like snow, he looked at me a bit shocked, not really knowing what to answer. What are you doing now? I finally looked at him, smiling
- Hum, I have to go home, we are moving to a new place.
- Oh, that looks like fun, I love to pack, even though I don’t really like to move out. I… Oh, no nothing! I felt stupid.
- What what?
- No, no, it’s nothing, I’m stupid.
- Ahh, don’t do that to me! He looked a bit frustrated
- I forgot you had people leaving with you and was going to ask you if you needed help with your moving out. But then I might be too much, and you probably have other thing then to pass time with one of your students.
- We’re almost the same age, he smiled, I don’t know maybe we need help. You can come with me, we can have a coffee with everyone, he smiled at me. We both stopped walking. I’m going to call say you are coming. Hey, Jiminie, you home? Oh, no? Ok ok, oh… yes, yes oh, ok… Well, I’m coming with a friend, just for a coffee. Aaaah this is not nice, I wasn’t paying attention anymore, I had a call to make myself. No… Ok, thanks. Yes, I know… Yes, I know as well. Please don’t! Oh ok, ok... I’ll see you. He waited a second for me I was still on the phone. I was laughing with my dad. When I hang up looking at him, and I felt really happy. Still a lot sick, but very happy as well.
- So? I asked smiling.
Can I tell you a secret? I think I’m in love my music instructor…
Honestly, I’ve always Korea loved Korean culture and their country and everything. But moving out SUCKS ASS!! Even if the moving from California to Seoul was smooth, I hate being shake up in my regular life. What sucks even more is that me and my dad had to leave in the middle between semester.
