Convenience Store

I woke up the next morning and wondered if I actually was where I thought I was. Korea. The place I felt I belonged to since I was 13.

"I'm here! I'm actually here!" I whispered to myself. A feeling of hope and exhilaration rushed through me and pushed me to get ready for the day ahead.

Today is the day I'm purchasing a place in Seoul.

Even though I'm attending university here, my parents wanted me to live in an apartment. A rumble of my belly caused me to remember that I hadn't had anything to eat since I was on the flight.

I decided to explore the area for a place that contained food that I would soon devour.

I saw a convenience store a straight shot from where I was staying, so there wasn't much chance of me getting lost. I entered the store and a friendly ahjumma welcomed me. It looked cozy, like a Mom-and-Pop type of store. The shelves were lined with snacks that looked unfamiliar to me. I decided on some triangle kimbap and banana milk.

I checked out and went back to my room. I finished my breakfast quickly and looked up the phone number for the appartment complex I would be staying at and arranged the appointment.

After that was settled, I channel surfed and a marathon of Infinite's You Are My Oppa caught my attention. Even thought I've already seen it, I wanted to watch it again beccause now I knew who was who.

Lunch time sprung upon me and I had to part with the dear TV with whom I had created an excellent bond with. I returned to the convenience store from breakfast and had some ramen.

As I was finishing up my lunch, Infinite's Last Romeo came on and I hummed quietly along. At least what I thought was quietly.

Someone tappd my shoulder and I quickly spun around.

Is this real life?

Chapter 1: For a first fanfic, your grammar's pretty decent tbh. I've never read a sunggyuxoc fic, but I think I'll give this a chance. :)
But, I've noticed that the chapters are quite short? Usually, if a chapter surpasses 3,000 words then it's ready to be posted. :3
But this is written in the first POV so summing up 3,000 isn't that hard because when you live alone and not to mention you're now in a different country, you'll find everything interesting.~
But then again, you're new to writing, so I suggest making your vocabulary, as well as your imagination, broader. :)

Skipping parts is okay, but don't over do it.~ Describe the things she sees and what she thinks about it. On the fourth chapter, I could tell that you improved, if you compare it to the first chapter, so props to that. :D Characterization is very important. So far, I have minimal information about her and sunggyu, so I hope you develop their personalities and such on the future chapters.

Lastly, use metaphors from time to time and refrain yourself from using formal phrases. She's just a teenager, so I don't think it's appropriate. :3

Well, that's pretty much it! ^^ I hope I don't sound too harsh. :( Don't worry! We all have those first stories~ as time goes by, you'll eventually improve! :D
Oh, and tag it as "sunggyu". :>
Btw, if you're curious if I write stories or not, I do, but not on this account. ouo
