july 2007

-- south korean model, committed suicide last year. her blog (I like to fork myself) is really cool and she has some great, if somewhat twisted/dark, insights into life/individuality.

(side note: she was very vocal about asians as minorities and being familiar with korean history. LIKE. also- she was really intelligent and didn't appreciate the models=dumb stereotype. one time, she was reading tolstoy and her hair stylist was like 'what are you reading?' and daul responded 'tolstoy'. the woman: 'ooh, you mean toy story?'. daul: -_____-)

anyway- words of wisdom::

"the past that makes you cry will make you grow

the loneliness that makes you cry will make you strong

do not regret your past

do not forget your past

past is just past

anyway it does not exist

it can not exist

it will remain in you

but it can not rule you

as it is only memories

since you already have a different world,

you should be the person in that world.,,

nothing else"


change is good. change is scary but change is good.


it's good to be aggressive about what you want.
