I'm Still Alive *cue Big Bang*

 

Wow that's an old joke, I apologize lol

 

But yeah, here you have me, still living and breathing! Last time I posted something was about two years ago, so time surely does fly.

I don't know why, but today I woke up having this urge to check back my account here and see how things have been doing, and it just felt right to write this blog post, perhaps as some form of closure, since I just left one day with no trace... Not that anyone would notice since I wasn't particularly popular over here heh...

If anyone was wondering why I disappeared though, there's really not a monumental reason, I just grew out of this I guess. I haven't really listened to much kpop over the last couple of years, let alone write anything or just be an active part of this crazy thing of a fandom.

So everytime I try to join kpop again I basically feel like this:

I'm still a bit updated on my favorite groups like Big Bang, 2NE1 (rip 💔) and Exo, cause a friend of mine really got into kpop after I stopped listening to it, and she keeps me updated with those lol

Let's just not bring up 2NE1 or I might cry, nor Big Bang and TOP's departure to the army (or I might cry as well) 💔 💔 💔 💔 💔 💔

 

Things have exponentially changed ever since I joined this site, both in my life and in kpop. As I said before, I don't currently know much about the latter, but I can definitely catch you guys up on what's been going on with my life over these years.

To begin with, I joined Asianfanfics when I was a little 14-year-old fetus (!!!!!). I am currently 19 years old, soon-to-be 20 but let's not remind me of that thanks.

At 14 years of age I was an innocent and naive teenager, who was discovering kpop and who was in the journey of discovering herself as well. I don't wanna get all poetic but looking back, that's exactly what I was doing.

I'm now about to enter my second year of college, fortunately studying a career that I love, which is Communication. In 2016 I moved to another city to go to college, and lived with some friends and without my parents for the first time ever. That really helped me mature and evolve as a person.

And that's basically it! I've run out of things to say already 😅, but I just wanted to leave this brief message to explain my whereabouts.

I doubt I'll return to writing fanfics, at least for now. I've actually been trying my hand at writing haiku and it's really fun, totally recommend it!

 

So yeah, I hope you who are reading this is been doing well, wishing you the best always!

I'll always carry kpop in my heart because it was once a very important part of my life, as well as this site ❤️

And if you're curious about how I look like irl or wanna contact me, you can do so at my Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/vferli/

 

Thank you for all these beautiful years, I'll treasure them forever 💖 Take care everyone!

Love,

BlackjackPride.

We don't really know each other and only exchange a few comments 2 years ago (I search to remind me haha) but for some reason it's nice to hear about you. I basically discover kpop at the same age as you and I'm now 21 (no!), I don't know for you but I grew up with 2ne1 without noticing it. Contrary to you I still follow kpop throughout fanfics/news/fan websites, strangely more than before, when I was young, sometimes I think it became an addiction (I think it's my way to take my mind off things), but I'm not never the fangirl type, it's just I like to be updated, watch some pieces of shows and comment fanfics, but I've start to loose track with all the new groups and they are now too young so I can't relate anymore. I feel like I'm older and I should stop to follow kpop but I like the songs, I find more sophisticated than before dunno... and besides kpop, I discover korean music as khiphop and indie whose have nothing to be ashamed of in comparison to western songs. But I do feel like it's too much with the multiplication of groups and the business so I'm less into kpop now. Oh! I already speak too much -_-"
I'm happy to know you're doing what you like, I've got a friend who is also doing communication. I would like to follow you on ig if you're ok? crazy how people meet through social medias xD
