Attempts at becoming a better me

안녕하세요!

Hi everyone. As you may have notice, this is my first blog and it is one in the first series of "Becoming A Better Me." It will be centered around my journey in losing weight and hopefully it could be used as motivation to others who struggle with their weight.

Before starting, I would like to introduce myself a bit to make this more personally connected.

My name is Kayla C. (Known on the interwebs as Park KyungSoon (Kim KyungSoon here) or Kassandra P. Wright.

I live in America and I will be entering the 12th grade.

My favorite color is purple

I started listening to K-Pop in May of 2013 and my first group being SNSD

Since listening to kpop, I have been self teaching myself Korean on and off and successfully teaching myself to read hanguel (I can't fully translate yet tho ):)

My bias groups are all SM groups and soloists, BTS, VIXX, All JYPE groups and soloist, all YGE groups and soloist, Ailee, Lucky J.

Doing this blog holds me accountable and forces me to work out.

Moving on from that, in this blog I will not being sharing my weight because

1. I do not own a scale bc they make me sad

2. If I put in a lot of work and feel like I have progressed a lot but my scale says otherwise, I would feel more inclined to give up.

For me personally, I rather see the difference through pictures. I feel like pictures do more justice for people. If I only loose 2lbs but the mirror shows me that I visually look like I have lost weight, I'm going to feel more excited to see my reflection. So if you have a scale sitting in the dark corner of your bathroom somewhere, by all means, through it out the window and love that mirror.

That will be all for tonight and tomorrow I will share my first day on my journey. If you have questions, please do not be afraid to comment.

Aye fam, just passing by to say Congratulations at making the choice to change. You're entering grade 12 too? This september?? THAT MEANS WE'RE THE SAME AGEEE :) I'm actually in need of motivation for working out and I'm glad to see that you are motivated. It makes me feel happy and makes me feel pumped too. You know how to read hangeul?? WOOW self taught. NICEE :) That's actually a great thing to do. Learning a language by yourself is hard. Tbh. Nice I tried to do that back in like grade 8 or 9 when i didn't have much drive or commitment to it. Aye LOl BTS AND VIXX <3 And ahh. Well I wish you all the best for your journey, if anything lets share a becoming a better me journey too LOL i need to work on myself and its cool to have people who acknowledge it and keep you go. I dont have a scale either and I was really self conscious about my weight but I know it's a mix of good muscle and some fat. I'm kind of more concerned with my stomach and waist line since I am growing out. Regardless. :) yeah. ALL THE BEST HWAITING :)
