<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today, I wanna talk about </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><b>Emotional Awkwardness</b></i>, an important topic that has affected my life in the past months given my current personal situation, which I will now explain briefly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I have Cancer, was diagnosed almost 2 years ago and a couple of months ago was told I was(am) terminally ill. Given this situation, I came to realize many of my friends, family and people around are Emotionally Awkward. Now, I know at the beginning it is normal for people to be shocked or say something "not appropriate", yes, but this is when they first find out about a situation like this; then they have time to process things and react accordingly...or so you would think. But no, at least not in my case. Many people around me, STILL don't know how to act or what to say, or how to behave with me, which bothers me a lot!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now, to help you a little bit, I will explain what being <i><b>Emotionally Awkward</b></i> is. It is the i<span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="">nability to react emotionally in accordance with
one's goals and the rules of the environment in different everyday
situations, exhibiting deficient, exaggerated or inadequate emotional
responses.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span class="">AKA<i><b>, Emotional
clumsiness</b></i>, prevents us from properly recognizing, understanding and
managing our emotions and those of others, as we misinterpret their communicative signals and react improperly.</span> <span class="">This, when it becomes a trend, affects health, relationships and productivity.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en">In my case, it has affected relationships because people has gone "missing" from my life, they prefer to "disappear" and pretend things are not happening (the cancer in this case) so that they don't have to deal with them...or with me. Which only affects our relationship, many times, up to a level where there's no going back, there's no "fixing" of said relationship; therefore, due to their <i><b>emotional awkwardness</b></i>, those long-life friendships/</span></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en">relationships</span></span> are forever lost. </span></span></div>

<div class="trans-verified-button-small" dir="ltr" id="gt-res-dir-ctr">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en">Now, in an effort to help my friends and people around me deal (a bit) better with this situation, I made a video with some "tips" and advice regarding the "Cancer Etiquette" you can abide by; however, it didn't seem to work very well since most of my friends continued to be <i><b>Emotionally Awkward</b></i> and then I decided to end up those relationships. I am not happy about it, but at the end of the day, it is the best you can do when you're in a situation like mine. I mean, I already have enough dealing with Cancer to, on top of that, deal with people who only makes me feel bad or frustrated.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span class="" id="result_box" lang="en">This post is kind of a "last chance" to help some of those lingering relationships if they want advice from the source on how to behave before this situation and also -hopefully- a brand new opportunity for people who have friends in a similar situation (not necessarily Cancer) and want to do better at communicating with them and expressing themselves better when around them.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">"Life is Now!" is a phrase collection from my most recent art project, created with the hope that it will somehow help you and/or inspire you live your life better and more happily. Please, share this with as many people as you can and help spread the word about how important it is to make the most out of life!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">These 17 phrases are intended to make you not only reflect a bit about your own life and how you're living it, but also about making you inspired to go out there and try new things, to dare, to work harder, to be happier, bolder and, above all, to live life the way you want to.</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I am a 34-year-old Mexican Photographer who's always had a passion for all things art and visual; I've always had an urge to be able to express myself beyond words as I believe visuals have an even bigger reach, no language needed, no knowledge necessary, no thing, just an image, something that you can simply look at and, perhaps not quite understand, but that makes you feel something. I've always believed that as long as an image is able to evoke a sentiment within you, it's done it's job, regardless of what that sentiment is. Moving you somehow and touching sensitive vibes is the ultimate goal of an image.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In this particular case, I am focusing on "written art" as it is a crucial time for me to make people aware of the message that I want to convey. Long story short, I am living with brain tumors and have been given only a few months left to live; which far from making me sad, makes me wanna be stronger, go out there and live life to the fullest possible. Not that I wasn't living like that before, I've always been the kinda person that does whatever it takes to be comfortable in life, whether that entails making some sacrifices sometimes, working as hard as you can or things like that; but well, now, with an "expiration date" in my life, things do change a little as time becomes less and less and I don't know when I will stop being a normal-functioning human being.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That said, not only do I feel the HUGE need to make the most out of life as possible and try to get done as much as I've always wanted to but to, while at it, spread the word to as many people as I can so that they can do the same with their own (lives).</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now, "but...isn't that obvious?" you may think? That there's only one life, that you should enjoy life, that you should seize every opportunity and all those things; you would think so, yet, the human being insists on obsessing with the least worth it things in life and overlooking the real meaning of life, which, as lame as it may sound, is HAPPINESS.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, in <b>17 phrases</b>, I decided to try to encourage people to get out there, to take chances, to be b<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">o</span>ld, to dare to be happy in spite of what others think, to get out of their comfort zone in order to achieve what they dream of, to be free, to be authentic, to provoke them to actually live!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Due to the limited resources, this is (for now) only an ONLINE project as that's all I can do by myself right now; however, I would like to make a <b>call out to all artists out there</b> to help me turn this project into actual <b>Neon Art </b>that can be exhibited in an actual place, where many people can see it and, perhaps, feel enticed and inspired by it. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you're an artist and would like to collaborate with me on this project, please feel free to contact me (there is a link to my email on my profile at the bottom of this page).</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For the time being, the Project will be shown online daily on my <b><a href="https://www.instagram.com/verdinand/" target="_blank">Instagram Page</a>, </b>where I will be releasing an Image per day starting on January 31st (KST). On the same day, the ENTIRE project will be published on this blog; so please, feel free to share it as much as you can to help spread the word, it will be much, much appreciated.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Please, look forward to the project and support it to help others live life fully.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today, I sit by my desk 17 months after I was not only diagnosed with Esophageal Cancer Stage III aka Terminal Cancer. That's right, last year was told that I had Esophageal Cancer Stage III and that I wasn't even a candidate for surgery anymore, doctor said they could do some Chemotherapy but only to improve my quality of life and that I only had about a year left to live.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I then changed doctors and the new one said it was actually stage II and that surgery was now a possibility; however, when I went in for some pre-surgery tests, it turned out it was really stage III and surgery was a no go. It was then when they gave me a new dr., a woman, and she told me it was indeed stage III and they couldn't do surgery anymore but they could so chemotherapy and perhaps radiation afterwards, the point being, the same as before: to give me a good quality of life. I agreed to it because the least I wanted was to live the rest of my life (however long it was) being fed through a tube, so I did the treatment. Chemo for 5 months, then cancer did improve to the point I was then eligible for surgery, so they did it and it got even better; then, they gave me radiation everyday for about 2 months. When I was done, I was told I was "pretty much" clear, I am quoting because "pretty much" here means "almost" and that is due to the fact that I was doing much better than when the whole treatment began, however, not perfectly fine as there's still one tiny little lymph node (about 180mm) that they -for some odd reason- could not get rid off neither with surgery nor with the radiation, so that little sucker is still there, reminding me everyday that I am not quite off the hook...just yet.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">However, this does feel like a big win, you know? When they tell you you have one year left to live and then you're still there a year and a half after that and doing better than you thought and almost living a "normal" life...well, it sure feels like you're winning at life!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I think I am very lucky, to be honest, I know so many people don't even get this chance and I believe that I got it for a reason; because I still have things to do, people to meet, goals to achieve, things to learn and, above all, people to love, and maybe even lessons to teach, not with lectures but by setting an example with my life and how I live it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So that's what I am doing now and what I wanna keep on doing, sharing my story with people because you never know, there might be someone who's going through the same and may need some courage and/or inspiration from listening to your story, from seeing how you fought and are still fighting to live and to have a life while you're at it, to enjoy more, to love more. I don't necessarily talk about my cancer all the time nor to all the people I meet, but I do do it when I consider it will be helpful to someone's life, when I feel like I will be able to contribute with a little something to someone's life or view of it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was definitely not expecting this to happen. My mom was diagnosed with Renal Cell Cancer one day and she passed away only 15 months later, so I most definitely was not expecting to surpass that. Though now even just passing that makes me feel like I'm already doing better, you know? It pains me to think how bad it all was for my Mom and how sad it was knowing how much she loved life, so I definitely think this happened for a reason and that I'm still here for a reason and I need to make that count.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I just had my second post-treatment checkup this week and everything is still the same, not a 100% clear as that little sucker (the lymph node) is still there, but at least it hasn't grown or spread anywhere else. So doctor said all we can continue to do for now is continue to observe carefully and watch out for the symptoms, which -needless to say- are a complete pain in the a*s.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sometimes, I hate the side effects so much so that I feel like everything I wen through was not worth it and that I shouldn't have done it...but then I think about it again and snap out of my stupidity and realize how actually worth it was regardless the pain and discomfort I go through every single day. And I now feel extremely GRATEFUL and incredibly BLESSED every day that I get to still be here, to share life with my sister whom I love so much and whose help and support I'm here for. I am happy to be here and I am, again, excited about life and what's to come, for as long as that might be, it doesn't matter, I am planning on making count, for me, for my sister and for the people who love me and support me and who have been there for me throughout all of this.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, even if I am not completely in remission now, I think I can say I have survived cancer and glad to have done it, I will continue to do so for as long as I have courage in my soul, energy in my body, sharpness in my mind, love in my heart and, of course, air in my lungs.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Chemotherapy refers to -as a quick Google search indicates- the use of medicines or drugs to treat cancer; yes, as plain and simple as that. However, regardless its simplistic definition, Chemotherapy actually means so much more and/or so many other things for many people.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I would say about 99% of the people hate it, and not only people who have actually undergone a chemotherapy treatment, but also people who have just heard or read about it, that much of an importance it has in modern medicine, I guess, that even non-patients seem to have a strong opinion about it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today, however, I am here to talk about my own personal experience with chemotherapy. And, just so you know, I am not writing this to try to change your mind, regardless what this one is, I am here simply to tell you about what happened to me, what I think about it and that's it, facts, basically and my opinion based on those facts, of course. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Even though I was already familiarized with Cancer since my mom passed away from RCC (Renal Cell Cancer) over 4 years ago, I wasn't familiarized with chemo because my mom's cancer was much too advance to even be able to receive it -they skipped straight to an emergency surgery and then radiotherapy, but that was it. After I was diagnosed, my doctor explained the course of treatment to me with an odd tone in her voice, still not sure if it was produced by fear, nervousness or pity for having to say all those terrible things to someone "as young" as me. (I was 32yo at the time and my cancer -Esophagus- isn't a very common one for someone my age, or gender for that matter). After she explained that I would need to get 6 chemo sessions and then probably a few rounds of either radiotherapy or chemo-radiotherapy, I promptly -and in a very calmed way, I must say- asked what was the purpose of the treatment since my cancer was already Stage IIIB and I had already been told surgery was no longer an option for me. "To give you a better quality of life", she said. I had been given 1 to 5 years to live after my prognosis. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">At the very beginning of all this, when I was recently diagnosed, I was installed in the mindset that I would not be taking any treatment; first of all because my sister and I had agreed on that (after what we went though with my mom, neither of us felt like going through something similar ever again) and then, because if I had so little time left to live, I wanted to take advantage of it and do things, you know, live life like a normal person, instead of spending that time in a hospital bed, looking and feeling like crap only to end up in the place: dead. However, I'm not even sure how or when, but things changed and both (my sister's and mine) our minds changed and we decided I should give it a shot and do the treatment. First of all -I guess- because my biggest fear (or one of them, anyway) was to end up connected to tubes and having to eat drink, breathe and basically live out of them; I simply couldn't bare the idea of going though that so, if only to avoid that or put it off for as long as I could, I decided I'd do it and my sister also said that if I had been given the option, then I should do it, so I did.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To be quite honest, that day after talking to Dr. Lee was one of the very few times I cried. I cried because I had just been officially been declared terminally ill and I wasn't ready to die just yet. I was afraid for my sister, for myself and for what was about to come for both of us, given that we live in a foreign country and we're each other's only family.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The very next day they started prepping me for chemo, I would need to take it for 5 days a month, then rest 3 weeks and then back again, like that for 6 months. They gave me 5FU (Fluorouracil) and Cisplatin. They started doing it 24x24, which is when they infuse the medicine for 24 straight hours and then stop for 12hrs and then again another 24hrs of medicine, though you are connected to the IV the whole time and those 12hrs you just get a saline solution, but you are basically "plugged" the whole time. Before connecting you to the IV, they give you a shot that I'm not sure what it was but it has a really particular smell and it was HORRIBLE, I still get a bad sensation even just thinking about it, I felt tiny little electroshocks all over my body and felt like I wanted to escape my own body, so I would just go into fetal position and try to sleep it off asap. Then, I'd be connected for 4-5 days straight. What happened to me during those days wasn't so bad really, especially compared to what happened to me after those days. Usually I'd just get really exhausted, nauseous, appetite loss, a metallic taste in my mouth and constipation. Still, not fun at all but, again, nothing compared to what was in store for afterwards. Most of the time I was at the hospital, I'd try to sleep as much as I could, you know, so that time would go by "fast" so I could feel almost as if I was sleeping it off.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When I went home, I was happy because just being home and out of the hospital makes you feel better already, then, the real side effects would come. For the 1st round, it was not THAT bad, I lost my appetite, got really nauseous and disgusted by a lot of food, especially Korean food -and it's hard to be disgusted by it when you live in Korea and it smells like food everywhere at all times. After the 2nd round I got all swollen, not my feet nor hands like I'd read so much on the internet, but basically my face, one day it got so bad I went to the ER, but just wasted my time coz it was a "normal thing", part of the side effects, but nor the doctor nor anybody else had mentioned it'd happen so I had no idea what was going on. It's important to say side effects are accumulated, I mean, on top of the one I got at the hospital, I got these others ones, it's not like they switched, no, I had them all at the same time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dr. Lee said they'd be monitoring the chemo's results by making tests every 2 sessions and so, after the 2nd one and just before beginning the 3rd one, she told me the first 2 session had reduced the cancer 10%. I thought it was good news, I mean, it is a small percentage considering the stage I was in, but still, you have to be happy about winning little battles, you know? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For the 3rd round I got mouth sores, OH-MY-FRIGGING-GOD! Those things are horribly painful, that was another time I cried (only the 1st one after the terminal ill declaration cry). Pain was EXCRUCIATING. I couldn't even open my mouth because it'd hurt like hell to even try to open my jaw, let alone drink and much less eat ANYTHING. Pain was real, I don't think I had EVER felt that kinda pain in my life, I truly did suffer so much with these ones. For the 4th one, I got a lot of vomiting, A LOT! And also lots of headaches, plus the little ones (side effects). And just right after that 4th one -and almost overnight, I must say-, the 2nd worst one happened: the hair loss. For many people it's "just hair", I know, but you cannot say something like that until something like this happens to you, you know? I remember it hurt me a lot seeing my mom lose hers and she'd always had short hair so the difference wasn't THAT shocking, but it hurt and I felt bad for her but tried to comfort her and tell her that I rather having her bald but alive...then I came to find out that helps but not too much. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Even though it may seem like something really shallow and vain, losing my hair was definitely one of the biggest hits I got from cancer, that is just something I am dealing with even to this day and pretty much everyday, and now I have hair again, short but brand new and healthy. Some days, I couldn't even bare looking at myself to the mirror because all I saw was a monster. I was all sick-looking, swollen and bold. I HATED looking at myself so I'd just avoid the mirror everytime I went to the bathroom. Needless to say I didn't want anyone else see me like that, I didn't even want my sister to see me like that but she had to be there to take care of me, so there wasn't much I could do there. She was very good and told me I didn't look like a monster, but I know very well I did. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When I came in for the 5th session was horrible, they did the tests they did every 2 sessions and they took too long, then there was a mistake with one of my blood tests, my red cells were too low they did a transfusion and even after it the readings were still low, but it turns out it was because they were reading the results from the tests done right before the transfusion, when they read the one from after they were okay; so the transfusion did work -obviously. Anyway, I was there about a week and after so many tests Dr. Lee told me she was being transferred to another department and I'd get another oncologist, Dr. Ro -a very old man, but a good doctor. After knowing the results from all the testing, Dr. Ro said I was now eligible for surgery (Ivor Lewis surgery, that is). I didn't wanna get surgery because the one surgeon that performed that particular surgery was one that had misdiagnosed me earlier so I didn't trust him, but Dr. Ro said he "strongly recommended" me to get the surgery and that that doctor (Dr. Park) was the best surgeon to perform that particular surgery. So we thought about it and agreed to it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To make a long story short -since this post is mainly about chemo, not my whole cancer history-; I got the surgery a few days later, then I got 28 sessions of radiotherapy and the CT done during the very last one came out all clean. So, basically, it was all because of chemotherapy, o at least, that's what started getting rid of the cancer, in my case.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So yes, chemo does destroy you in so many ways, it makes you feel the most unhealthy you've ever felt, the ugliest you've ever been, it drops your self-esteem to the floor, it scares you because of the many things going on with your body that you don't know about and therefore are so scared of, it makes you sad, it makes you weak, it makes you feel powerless, useless and so many other things no human being wants to go though, yes, but at the end of the day, it is only because of all of that that you get to feel better, stronger, healthier, more confident and just good. So if you as me, I would say it is 100% worth it. You know when they say "no pain, no gain"? I think they're pretty much referring to chemo. And I know a lot of people are against it because it is bad and it kills a lot of your good cells and it makes you unwell (like, really unwell), yes, but...BUT...it is also killing the bad cells (the cancerous ones) and, slowly, little by little the good cells can regenerate and your body can go back to normal and get rid of the bad ones. And like I said at the beginning of this post, this isn't something somebody told me, or I read somewhere or overheard it, no, I lived this experience, I went through all of this myself and I am now alive and way healthier than I was before chemo, thanks to it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, I would say, if you're in that position or time where you need to decide whether you do chemo or not because of its "history", I hope this helps you decide and gives you -at least- a little bit of hope and lets you know that, in order to become a stronger person, you first need to put on a fight, a really good one and show that you can go through it and survive it and end up kicking ass. Ultimately, it is that "small" sacrifice that will lead you to a better place.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Also, if you are in that situation, ask your doctor ALL the questions that come to your mind, no matter how stupid you may think they are, you need to get all the weapons that you can get and information is an important one; information is power and this case is no exception, the more you know, the better prepared you'll be for what's to come and the better you can fight it. If you already asked your doctor all the questions they could answer and still feel hesitant and want to know more information first hand, feel free to ask me, I'll be glad to help :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In conclusion, yes, Chemotherapy is definitely a blessing in disguise.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I realize my 2016 answers are, if not more mature, at least more serious. I was very "witty" back in 2005, but well...early twenties, I guess it's understandable, more than 10 years later...here I am, knowing more about life than I probably should at this point, still, thankful for it and for who I am in general.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Some would say their story begins at a certain point where something epic happened to them, either good or bad. Not me. As far as I'm concern, my story began the day I was born and developed through the years I've lived and around everything that has happened to me; the good, the bad, the crazy, the fun, the sad, the amazing, the unbelievable, the heartbreaking, every little thing and/or event that occurred to me in my life is exactly what makes up MY story and, above all, who I am to this day.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Massive tragedies have marked my life, yes, but that does not mean my story began from those moments on; it only means the plot thickened and many, many twists were making the story more rich and, somehow, interesting.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When things that change your life forever happen to you, you, somehow, become someone else; sometimes only temporarily, sometimes forever, so it's not only your life that changes but you change along with it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I recently read a cancer <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">blogger(?) who was talking about her illness and she mentione<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">d her story began the day she was diagnosed, which I found a bit od<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">d, to be honest<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. I<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">t le<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ft me wondering<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">, had she had an irrelevant life? Did nothing great, fun, crazy, <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">bad, amazing happe<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ned to her before that? Because<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">, <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">yes, I know how <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">big of a shock it is to get diagnosed with cancer (especially when you're not even in your 50's!) but to say that YOUR whole life story begins there<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">...I don'<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">t know, it is giving it too much of an importance. And, plea<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">se don't get me wrong, <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">cancer is important, yes, but not TH<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">E most important thing you know? I mean, even if you have cancer, you're still a person, yo<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">u're still you, <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">who you've always<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> been (for the most part, I also know cancer can change you a bit as a person<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>, except now y<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ou're sick. But I really don't think getting <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">cancer <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">automatically erases everything that happened to you prior t<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">o</span> that</span></span></span></span> nor that it makes the<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">m less important or anything like that at all, you know what I mean? It does shape you into a different person, but not completely; how you gre<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">w up, what you experience</span></span>d in your life up until that point, it still makes most of who you are in life, it is still part of <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">you and what he<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">lps create <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">YOUR s<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">tory.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, again, if you ask me, my story began the day I was born and <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">it<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">'s still<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span></span></span>being written to this d<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ay, adding new exciting, crazy, <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">awful, sad and happy chapters to it.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So, w</span>hat about you? When does YOUR story begin?</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">It's been <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">8</span> months now since I was diagnosed with <b>Esophagus Cancer Stage 3B</b>
and I have only told a few of my friends because, for some (or various)
reason it isn't something I wanna go public about. When my mom got sick
with RCC (Renal Cell Carcinoma), she was very open about it, everybody
knew she was sick, her friends, family (obviously), workmates and even
just acquaintances. For me however, going public about it is a whole
different thing, I mean, it's not because I think it's something that
should be a secret or anything but I just don't feel quite comfortable
with people knowing, you know? </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: normal;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">One
of the big reasons, and I know it might sound stupid, is because I
don't want people to pity me, I don't want them to think of me as a
victim, or call me "warrior' or such things that would only piss me off
rather than actually help me or make me feel better because <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">they<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> feel condescending</span></span>. Now, I know many people wouldn't do that, but most of them would<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">;</span>
and being or feeling like a victim is the least I want or need right
now. I just wanna feel like a normal person, who is sick, yes, but who's
still normal and capable of having a good life even if it's just for a
few more years.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: normal;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">My
sister sometimes insists on me going public about it but I am still not
sure even after such a long time, I guess I wanna wait until I finish
chemo first, once I do and I know more about what's exactly going to
happen for me in the next couple of years, then maybe I will feel better
about opening up about it.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">Another
thing is that I am a YouTuber (along with my sister) and even though I
am not that famous or anything, I am still sort of a public figure and I
don't know how people would react to it, I mean, yeah, I'd get a lot of
support from many people, sure, but I know there would probably also be
people who's super idiotic and would say some things like "they're glad
I'm sick" or something of the sorts, you know? (Internet,
unfortunately, allows a lot of a-holes to express their irrelevant
opinions on things that don't even concern them at all!) And I don't
think I am prepared to do that, at this point, I don't know if I'd have
the strength to deal with it, so, that's another reason I don't wanna go
public about it.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">However,
physical changes are happening such as hair loss (one of the worst side
effects), bloated face and things that are pretty noticeable, so I am
thinking that would be a reason I'd open up about it, though I don't
feel quite ready just yet; but also, I don't want people asking
questions about these changes, like, why I now wear a hat all the time
(which I am completely tired of!) or why sometimes I look like I ate
myself and got so bloated or things like that. So, I am thinking I
either come out about it or stop making videos, which I don't want to do
because it is one of the things I enjoy the most about my life at the
time. I have a lot of fun making them and it is something that makes me
feel good in general and it's also something to keep me busy (besides
work) and keep my mind occupied with good/fun things, rather than sad,
awful things like the hospitalization every month, side effects and the
general sadness and/or depression a disease like this can cause.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">So
yeah, I wanted to write about it now because it always helps me write
what and how I feel, it's a very cathartic process for me so here I am.
Although when this is published, it will probably be at least a couple
of months old. Still, I have hopes that this might help someone else who
is in the same situation as me or a similar one and they identify
themselves with me and feel empathy; I've found empathy to be a very
helpful thing in situations like these, even if it comes from a
stranger. Just reading or hearing about someone who's been or is going
through the same things/processes you're going through can be
quite...comforting, as it sort of lets you know you're not alone, that
there's someone out there who feels just the way you feel and that is
going through the exact same thing and actually understands what you're
going through.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: normal;"><span style="font-size: xx-normal;">So, if you're out there reading this and are going through the same or a similar situation, please, feel free to reach out<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">.</span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Today I need to write because I feel like there’s so much I
need to let out. And I wanna start by saying that I am really, really mad at
myself for being so stupid and for a moment (a long one) allowing myself to
believe I had the slightest chance to survive cancer, to beat it with some sort
of miracle or whatever. The results after the 1<sup>st</sup> round of chemo
were good so I felt positive and I guess I just assumed I’d only keep on
getting better and better, maybe up until the point where I’d be able to go
into remission, at least for a while and I mean, a while longer than the 1 to 5
years the doctors are giving me, perhaps at least 10 to 15 I thought; but no,
things don’t quite work like that and the doctor was sure to let me know so
today. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After my doctor’s appointment today I started crying and I
didn’t see it coming, to be honest, there was no real reason to cry, I mean,
yes, the doctor made sure to make it clear to me (in case it wasn’t) 80% of the patients after these type of
treatments have their tumors grow back until the spread to other organs and die
but, then again, I already knew it. I knew it from the day I accepted to take
the treatment, I knew, and still do, perfectly well that this treatment is not
for me to be cured but only to try to make my life a bit longer and to, in any
case, improve my quality of life. So, I dunno, I guess I cried because, like I
said, I felt stupid that I allowed myself to believe something else or more because
I was mad at myself for being so stupid.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Anyway, I still feel upset about it
and not at the doctor or the cancer or anything nor anyone else but myself. I
already knew the scenario and what has to be done, yet, I let it knock me down
again today as if I wasn’t familiar with it from before. Now I know I should
NEVER let that happen again. I have terminal cancer and only a handful of years
to live so I should be, not precisely worrying about it, but start taking care
of my life plan for those years so I, at least, get to live the rest of my life
however I want to live it, right now, that’s what’s important and what I need
to deal with.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Today, among some personal documents, I found a text I wrote about a year ago where I explain -don't really know why or to whom- why I started and keep this blog. I must say it is a pretty good reason and I am still thankful I did and, even though I don't post as much as I used to, when I do, it helps me keep real and keep things real.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here's what I wrote back in <b>August 2014</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">"<i>The main reason why I keep this blog is to have a record of myself, of who I am at different times and stages of my life. From time to time, I like to read old posts and see how I was like and how/if I’ve changed. <br /><br />Today I was reading it and -basically- only one word came to mind: THANKFUL! I was very thankful before but now that I’ve gone through the rough stories again, through my reading and by remembering with those words the ones I left out, the untold stories, the details of the hardships, I feel nothing but happy and thankful for the chances life has given me, certainly not for free, I am also thankful for being the kind of person that takes chances coz that’s what always leads you elsewhere and you never know, but maybe some time, it will lead you exactly where you wanna go. The thing with chances is that you gotta be wise enough to take them as they come because, believe me, they never come twice. So try not to be so uptight and over-think things as you may lose a good chance. Now, it is true that if something is meant to be, it is meant to be; but you cannot leave everything to fate, you gotta make a little effort to help it and help yourself.</i>"<br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Sometimes, I get so distracted with everyday-life things and I forget about what really matters. At times, I also seem to lose my way and then, I end up looking for advice in the wrong place: with people who haven't got the slightest idea about life or things that matter; a common mistake I make every now and then. Fortunately, then I remember I also have people who do have an idea about life and real matters, so I go to them and they are good help. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">And then, the best thing happens, I remember how amazing Mom was and how full of true wisdom she was -in spite of being relatively young- and I go back to her old letters, well, more like emails really, but letters sounds more romantic and also, they ARE letters, only presented in electronic form. Anyhow, I go through her old "letters" and then not only do I find comfort in them, in spite of the tears they bring to my eyes every single time I read them, but I remember so many important things I should never forget, such as what life is really about and, I understand so much and, the reasons why I am who I am and the way I am become pretty clear again. I swear I read them and, in a way, it all makes sense, you know what I mean? It's like, I understand again things I had already understood in the past but forgotten lately, so it's a bit like recovering an old piece of me and, at the same time, getting close to Mom again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">These are some of the phrases she said to me and that I've taken to my heart as not only they helped me when she said them at the moment I needed them but because they keep on helping and nurturing me every time I re-read them. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In many countries of the World, the <b>Hallyu Wave</b> aka <b>Korean Wave</b> has made a huge impact in the past few years. Girls everywhere are going crazy about <b>K-Pop</b> music and the “idols” in their boy bands, about <b>Korean Dramas</b> and the good-looking guys in them; however, South Korea is so much more than that. The real South Korea has so many more things to offer than just Hallyu. South Korea is an amazing country with a heritage worth knowing, it has incredible architecture, both, traditional and modern; it has really good food and above all, really good people. <br /><br />A lot of people may not see South Korea as a destination worth traveling to as a tourist because they believe they won’t find anything else but K-pop and K-Dramas and it doesn’t really have any major landmark or cultural representative; in short, most people think South Korea is not for you if you’re not a teenager with the hot pants for Korean boys; however, as an experienced traveler, I can tell you this country has so much to offer that is definitely worth the trip all the way to the good old East. <br /><br />In South Korea you will find art, culture, delicious food, history, beautiful beaches, wonderful architecture, lots of good shopping, entertainment, mountains and, of course, nice people. You may call South Korea the “off-the-beaten-path” country of the East. Yes, everyone knows about <b>Japan</b> and <b>China</b>, and everyone wants to visit Kyoto and see Geishas, and go to Cat Cafes; and everyone wants to see the Great Wall, eat real Chinese food and see Bruce Lee’s homeland; but not really a lot of people know about South Korea and the great finding it is as a destination.<br /><br />So, if you call yourself a real traveler and are always in the look for places where you can learn, have fun and just enjoy yourself, this might be it for you! Otherwise…<br /><br /><i>Don’t visit South Korea if you’re not open to new things.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you don’t wanna discover a new culture.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you don’t wanna open your world to awesome adventures.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you think it’s all about K-Pop and K-Dramas here.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you if you only travel to places to see their “must-see” landmarks.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you only visit “hot” countries everyone else visits.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you’re not open to experience new flavours and textures in foods.<br />Don’t visit South Korea if you think everyone here looks like they do on TV.</i><br />And above all…<br /><i>Don’t visit South Korea if you’re not looking to have wonderful travel experience!</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I could be a complete pessimistic and state right away that 2014 was a bad year for me, due to the many lows, and struggles and hardships I went through here and there throughout the whole year; but I'm not gonna do that because right after I thought that, it only took me a minute to realize that would not be true. Yes, there were very hard times, like, really hard times, times where I didn't think I was going to make it...generally speaking but, somehow, for some reason, things turned around and I pulled through.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I can say 2014 was actually a pretty good year for me, it was a year where so many things happened, so many changes, so many big things went on. I put up with a lot and endured it mostly well, I worked really hard, I struggled a lot but also, I learned a lot, and I changed so much and -at the same time- I reconnected with my old self. But, above all, the most important and amazing thing happened: I was happy again. After my Mom passed away, I honestly never thought I would be able to feel happiness again and this year was so great in so many ways, I was actually able to feel happy again, genuinely happy.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So, more than anything, I am thankful and I feel very blessed to be able to live the life that I live, because it is the life that I want to live; and to have my sister with me because she's my strength and whom none of this be possible without. I feel blessed not only today but everyday, and everyday I am thankful for it as I am quite aware things can't always be good, life can't always be perfect...far from it, actually.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This 2014 life slapped me after almost every good thing it gave me, so it was confusing...but it kept me on my tip-toes -that's for sure!- and now I know I am not to let my guard down...ever, 'cause the minute I do...there it is, another slap. But I am getting the hang of it...kinda, anyway. Life, right?</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Little by little, in a very smooth process and almost without realizing it...life became everything that wasn't. I never imagined I would be where I am at this point in my life, doing the things I am doing; but the truth is, when my past-self looked into the future, the vision of my future self was a bit square, to be honest -I blame it on society. My life just a couple of years ago was completely different from what it is now, not better, not worse, just totally different. So this year, is the year that life became everything that wasn't. And I love it.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I don't know what 2015 is holding for me, but I know it'll be a great year even if it's just half as good as 2014. Here's to a brighter and happier future filled with love, amazing experience and happiness! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was a day in August...<br /><br />It was a
day in August when everything turned upside down, when the world the way
I knew it changed in the blink of an eye, when my life, and everything
in it, crumbled down into a million pieces that I thought I'd never
again put together...it was a day in August when the doctor told me my
Mom was going to die.<br /><br />The cancer was too advanced and there was
not much left to do for her but to provide her with as much quality of
life as possible, but that was it. Hope, positivism and strength died all
together, right there, in a second. I froze.<br /><br />I thought life was
playing a cruel joke on me, it was not possible, not my Mom, no, not
her. She's the strongest person I've ever met, she's the most ruthless
fighter cancer could have confronted, she had the most beautiful smile
and all the will to live up to a 100 years, until all her hair was grey
and she was able to play with her grandchildren.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was a day in August when the old me died and the new me was born.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was a day in August when I knew what real life was.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was a day in August I will never forget. </span></div>

ciudades tan tranquilas como Jalapa se han visto invadidas por <b>Zetas </b>y demás

opinión y percepción de un “<i>gringo</i>” sea poco acertada, pero entonces, no
debería estar escribiendo “cartas abiertas” a nadie afirmando cosas de las que
no tiene ni idea; porque una cosa es VISITAR México y vivirlo como un simple
turista y otra, muy distinta, es vivirlo como ciudadano Mexicano (aclaro lo de Mexicano
porque México suele ser muy benevolente con sus residentes extranjeros).</span></span></span></div>

van de turistas -muy probablemente- no los van a matar, así que no hay razón
para dejar de visitar el país, pero tampoco pueden ponerse una venda en los
ojos y hacer como que no pasa, porque pasa, y mucho. Y una cosa no le quita
nada a la otra; es decir, el admitir que el país tiene graves problemas
sociales y políticos, no significa que se menosprecie su -impresionante- historia
y cultura, su gente, sus creencias y demás cosas que hacen de México un país
único y maravilloso.</span></span></span></div>

acostumbrados a vacacionar en México por ser un destino “bueno, bonito y barato”;
al parecer, les incomodó que les abrieran un poco los ojos a lo que los
Mexicanos vemos. Y, claro, hablo del Mexicano promedio, no del Mexicano
pudiente que se pasa los fines de semana en sus Yates y bebiendo champaña;
claro, ellos también son Mexicanos, pero son Mexicanos que viven en una burbuja
y no les gusta ver más allá porque, por supuesto, también les incomoda. A
grandes rasgos, lo que “El Gringo” (así se hace llamar este individuo) dice, es
que “sí saben de la violencia, pero no quieren verlo en su televisión”, porque
mientras ellos sólo vayan a los lugares donde no hay violencia (“</span><i><span lang="EN-US">I will continue to visit

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even thou 80% of the Koreans I've met claim to "LOVE" Mexican Food, a few have actually tried the real deal, or at least, the closest thing to it that you can find in Korea. Most of the times it's not because they don't want to but because they just don't know where to find it, so they end up going to lousy "gringo" places claiming to sell "authentic" Mexican food. But please, worry no more...'cause that's what I'm here for, today, I will tell you where to get your "Mexican fix" and where NOT TO!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm gonna start with the <b>DON'Ts</b>:</span></i><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Vatos Urban Tacos</span></b>. This is definitely one of the most popular restaurants for Mexican food in Seoul. However, we all know "popular" doesn't always mean "good" and I'm afraid this is Vatos' case. I'd heard a lot about their <b>Kimchi Carnitas Fries</b> and their Tacos looked good on their website but when the time to try it all finally came, it felt -really- short. I went with friends and we ordered several things to try out different stuff. </span><br />

</tbody></table>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We started with the </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kimchi Carnitas Fries and the taste of the carnitas not of the kimchi was nowhere to be found, it was just simple fries with some kind of bland meat and also a bland kimchi. You could neither feel the flavor of one or the other, which -in my opinion- kills the fusion attempt completely. We also ordered <b>Galbi Shot Rib </b>tacos and <b>Classic Carne Asada</b> tacos. The most important thing of a <b>Taco </b>is the <b>Tortilla </b>and this one was a bad one, it was like a flour tortilla (far from the tasty corn one) not even properly cooked, the tacos were cold and the filling was, again, bland. The salsas, the second most important thing in a Taco, were just bleh, not spicy AT ALL! So, they didn't help much either. We also had the "Fresh Chips and Salsa", which wasn't really chips but deep-fried tortillas, actually called Tostadas. If you're gonna have that as an entry, that's fine, but at least make the salsas tasty so the entryy is worth it. Regardless the "authenticity" of their food, I found it to be not only <b>bad </b>but <b>overpriced</b>. If I wanted to get ripped-off for bad Tacos, I'd go straight to California, thank you. Which is actually where most of the founders grew up in, and that's what THEY think makes them "close" to Mexican cuisine -if only! Drinks were good though, they had these things called Makgeolli-tas (makgeolli+margaritas) and they're the only thing I would ever go back to Vatos for.</span><br />

I've said this before but I'll say it again: there's a reason why there's no Taco Bell in Mexico. So, really, just don't.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Cirilo's</b>. This is, for sure, the most expensive Mexican restaurant I've ever been to, however, it's not all THAT bad. They have a couple of things worth trying. Like their <b>Asada Tacos</b>, which are grilled beef tacos; their tortilla is not flour but corn and even though it's kind of small, it's actually pretty decent. Even though they're more like a fusion dish, their <b>Al Pastor Fries </b>are awesome (Pastor marinated pork with dried chilies and axiote, and makes the most popular tacos in Mexico) and even their <b>burritos </b>(which aren't Mexican) are very decent. Their <b>Guacamole </b>was a bit disappointing due to the lack of taste. You'd think guacamole is the one Mexican thing anybody can make properly, right? Well, truth be told...it's not, I mean, anyone can crash avocados with tomato and onion but only some can make the real deal; everybody always forgets about salt, lemon and chillies -THE key to a good guacamole! Anyway, one of their best things are their <b>Churros</b>, they serve them with a nice sort of gravy made outta chocolate and peanut -delish!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Taco Amigo</b>. It is a small place and it's not even pretty, it has a couple of "Mexican" things decorating the walls and the tables are kinda cramped, but well, the important thing here is the food, so...let's get to that. It is actually very authentic, I would say. I had <b>Mexican Tacos Meal</b> (2), that is beef tacos, basically, the highlight of this dish is that it is served with rice, beans, chips and salsa so that leaves you more than satisfied; not the best tacos ever, but it does the trick well enough; </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">the salsas helped a lot as they're really spicy and tasty (hot stuff!). </span> I had <b>Agua de Horchata</b> (horchata is a drink made outta rice) with that, and it was delish. My sis had chocolate (drink) from Oaxaca, which is supposed to be the best but I tried it and it was quite average, really. My friend had some <b>Fish Tacos Mea</b>l, which is the sea version of what I had. A weird thing is the fact that they have <b>Chimichangas </b>(a sort of Argentinian <i>empanadas</i>) and some stuff that's not Mexican at all, I don't understand why.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>Don Charly</b>. Last, but not least, the most truly <b>authentic </b>place I've tried in all of Seoul. <a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2013/07/29/travel/new-seoul-restaurants/" target="_blank">CNN said</a> "<i>While the quest for Mexican food often stops with Korean-American takes
on Mexican food, or pale interpretations of Mexican food, Don Charly is
the real thing -- no frills, no kimchi.</i>", which made me want to go see by myself how truthful they were being, turns out, completely. In Korea, Don Charly is called a Mexican Restaurant, but in Mexico is just what we would call a "<b>Taqueria/Torteria</b>" (a place where all they sell are Tacos and Tortas -mexican sandwiches), but it's okay coz it really does have the best Tacos in Town. The first time we has <b>Choriqueso Tacos</b>, according to Charly (a cool dude from Mexico City) the <b>chorizo </b>is homemade, it was flour tortilla but it's okay because that's the way it's supposed to be on choriquesos and he also gives you Lime (better known in Mexico as LEMON) and the <b>salsas </b>are on the table: green and red, the way God and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quetzalcoatl" target="_blank"><b>Quetzalcoatl</b> </a>intended. The red one is the winner, but beware, it is like a real spicy Mexican sauce so if you're no up for spicy stuff, you might wanna be careful with it, and if you're Mexican: <i>Bienvenido a casa, paisano</i>! haha</span><br />

The second time around -we brought friends so they'd experience the authentic Mexican food!) and we (sis and I) had <b>Tacos de Chicharron</b> en Salsa Verde and <b>Cochinita Pibil</b> and shared so we could try both; as I am writing this post, I swear I am pretty much drooling all over again just remembering the taste of those tacos, that's how good they were -especially de Chicharron ones -glorious! The only thing I didn't care for were the prices, it's still a little pricey for just Tacos and Tortas, but well, Western food is always expensive in Korea.</span></div>

disabled people with no one to turn to, it is located in Goyangsi Dukyangu and it
was founded by Jang Soon-Ok in 1993, who not only was a disabled person herself

to open a place that could house people of various ages and with different
kinds of disabilities, and help them out.</span>

disabled residents and one of the things that makes it unique is the fact that
the disabled residents support themselves by making (or more like assembling)
crafts they later sell the popular low-cost store Daiso in South Korea; in my
opinion, that is something not only worth mentioning but also worth baring in
mind to remind us all that no matter what conditions and situations life puts
you through, you will always be able to make it as long as you’re willing to
fight for it!</span></div>

volunteers on the first and third Saturdays of every month. Each volunteer gives
a 10,000 won donation to cover the cost of food for the day. The remainder of
the money is donated to the Angel House to benefit the residents. Some of the
chores the volunteers are responsible for are: cleaning the facilities, doing
laundry, cooking, and providing basic personal hygiene for the residents. When
the work is all done, they get to eat, talk, and socialize with the residents.</span></div>

volunteering but I think I’ve only had experience volunteering in the Arts

out. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";">When someone talks about “giving
back” people usually imagines celebrities being altruistic and “giving back” to
the community as a thank you for everything they’ve got: fame, fortune and
whatnot. However, giving back is not only for celebrities and/or rich people, giving
back is something we can (and probably should) all do. In my case, I consider
myself to be very lucky and blessed with the life I’ve got, the people, the
experiences and all the things in it, so I wanted to “give back” and contribute
to the society even if it was a little of my time and care. I knew it might be
a bit of a hard experience for me as I’ve dealt with disabled people before (my
Mom) -hard in the sensitive kind of way- but I also knew I would be able to
help them and share my time with them and treat them like normal people,
because not everyone is capable of that, to be honest.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif";">There was this lady who had a purse
hanging across her body and she had this little phonebook with her, she’d take
it out and ask each of us to write down our name and phone number in it (all in
Korean, of course, as none of them speak English), I thought she was so cute
and endearing! There was also this guy, a very smart man, he’d tell us how to
assemble the crafts properly and made sure to let us know if/when we were doing
it wrong, but in a nice way and when you were doing it right, he’d say “good
job!” (again, in Korean). For me, that kind of things are the ones that fill
your heart with love, your mind with peace and your body with good energy; and I
don’t mean to sound all hippie here and all, but it is what it is.</span></div>

where you can do so, if you’re not in Korea, I’m sure you can always find
places where your help is much needed, so don’t be afraid or wait until you’re
rich or a celebrity to give back. We can all contribute a little now! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Today I decided to write about something I know very well...being a <b>Mexican in Korea</b>. Mexicans in Korea are not something you see a lot, at least, not as much as you see <b><i>USAians </i></b>(<i>I hate calling them "Americans" because America is a whole continent and not a country, and we're all Americans from Canada to Brazil, FYI!</i>) in Korea; so I guess you can say it's still a "new thing" and I can tell because, in order to support this post, I was doing a bit of research -as I usually do- and found nothing...at least, nothing useful. So, that means that not only there are very few Mexicans in Korea (about 600, give or take) but the ones here aren't very active on the internet (they don't blog, vlog, write for any kind of media...nothing, really). So, other than <b><a href="http://thejuliejuliagiselaproject.blogspot.kr/" target="_blank">my sister</a></b>, I did not find any Mexican blogging in/about Korea. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Anyways, I'd like to start by saying that it is kind of odd that for Mexicans being rare in Korea, there are whole bunch of "<b>Mexican restaurants</b>", particularly in Seoul -where I live-, not sure about the rest of the country. This range of restaurants go from -the already a classic lol- <b>Taco Bell</b> to <b>Don Charly</b>, passing through places like <b>Julio's</b>, that call themselves a Mexican restaurant that is "even better than authentic", even though they play Bossanova (Brazilian music) as background music. Now, as a Mexican who respects herself, I have NEVER ever been to nor tried the food from Taco Bell because...well, why would I? I can tell it's all Fake-o McFake just by looking at their pics. I will say that <b>Don Charly</b> is the best Mexican "restaurant" (in Mexico we'd just call it "antojeria" for the kind of things they serve) I have tried in Seoul. I have tried several but that's a topic for another post (reviews and all).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Being a Mexican in Korea is...funny, most of the times anyway. It's always fun getting people trying to put a finger on your nationality cause we clearly don't look like "<i><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gringo" target="_blank">gringas</a></i>" but don't have the single-eyelid thing going on (to make them think we're from somewhere in Asia) either and then again <b>Mexico </b>is so far from <b>Korea</b> that that nationality doesn't even come up in their radar lol And when it does, 2 things -mainly- come to their mind: "<b>Tacos</b>" and "<b>Tequila</b>", oh yeah, it feels pretty amazing that in spite of having hundreds of years of -interesting- history what the world knows about us is Tacos and Tequila. But in a way is fun (funny?) cause you get to have a sort of an instant connection with people cause they meet you and they all go like "Mexico, really? Wow! I LOVE Mexican food!" (as if they've actually tried the real thing) and then I go "OMG, really? Me too!", then we all laugh and smile and it's like we're already friends cause we've got something in common ^_^ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It's also cool cause people don't instantly hate you as they hate USAians (I mean old people, generally speaking) and most of the times they find you...exotic, and well, I guess that in a place like this...I sort of am (?). You know, my eyes, my hair...those are the features people most comment on. I've always considered I have small eyes (because I do!) but here, people is like "oh, you have such big and pretty eyes!" lol Also, when I wear my hair natural (curly) they just love it, like, they think I did something to it, when the fact is...I was too lazy to actually do anything on it that day.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">One of the parts I like the least, well, more like I totally dislike is the part when -again- Mexico is so far that -most- Koreans are very ignorant about it and it's not their fault...entirely cause we're two completely different cultures and set so apart from each other that, up to certain point, it is kind of understandable, I mean, I only knew so much about Korea before coming here. But when they think Mexico is a poor country and all they see/imagine when they think of it is this:</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A dry-flat-dirty surface with tons of poor people on it. And yes, poverty does exist in Mexico and yes, it a country in "development" but, come on, you gotta widen your horizons a bit more and -at least- do some google-ing or naver-ing (for Koreans). This is how Mexico looks like, at least <b>Mexico City</b> -where I am from. It is a big, modern and AMAZING city, to be honest. Hectic and polluted, yes, also, but still quite pretty and interesting.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Umm, writing this post actually just made me miss Mexico and, as odd as it is...this is the very first time I miss it since I left over 6 months ago. Food? Yes, I missed that ever since I was having my last Tacos before even getting on the plane to Japan last summer but Mexico itself? Not one bit...until now. *deep sigh* Anyway, moving on.<br /><br />Being a Mexican in Korea is also cool because you get to play the "<i>Foreigner Card</i>". What is it, you wonder? Well, it's when you use being a foreigner as an justification to get things, you know, cause foreigners are still sorta new to Koreans and they wanna impress them with their country and culture and stuff. So, even though I'm generally not a big fan of using it, I admit I sometimes do recur to it. It's good when you wanna get into shows, TV Network performances, clubs, etc. It can also get you a lot of free stuff, though that just may be us, I don't know...cause we have some foreigner friends and they're always amazed at the things that happen to us or we get, or even the people we meet lol </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">That is all for now...but then again, it's only Part I, which is all I could think of so far but I'm sure more things and </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> memories of </span>experiences will come to mind later for the following Parts, so stay tuned! </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span><br />

Mexican, I grew up in a culture filled with Street Food and I LOVE it, I mean,
not for nothing <a href="http://www.travelandleisure.com/articles/worlds-most-delicious-street-foods/16"><b><span style="color: blue;">Mexican Street Food is considered one of the Most Delicious
in the World</span></b></a>! So, not only am I used to street food but I am an
enthusiast of it; no matter where I go, I gotta have street food. Of course,
always being precocious enough as not every street stall meets -at least- the
minimum hygienic standards one would look for in a place to eat.</span></span></div>

Chicken skewers). Portions of dark-meat or chicken skewered together and
grilled over open coals, covered with a tasty marinade throughout the cooking
process. These are good and well, with chicken and/or meat, you can hardly go
wrong…though I did get a stomachache both time I had it (true story!).</span></span></div>

Sweet pancakes). A sweet (and in my opinion, much better tasting) version of
the previous pancake. These are made of balls of dough and filled with
cinnamon, and occasionally nuts. Then they’re put into a shallow pool of oil,
squashed to form a pancake, and then flipped to finish cooking and melt the
sugar inside. </span></span></div>

pancakes). The variation of the previous one , it is prepared in a similar way
but this one is cooked in some kind of rotating waffle iron, making it not oily
but dry as well as airier and crunchier. They’re both delicious if you ask me,
but the first one is better for cold days.</span></span></div>

something –really- personal here but I feel like I need it. As some of you may
know, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">21 Months ago on the 21,</b> I
suffered the biggest loss ever…I lost my Mom to cancer. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">That changed my life forever</b>. The whole first year seemed blurry
for a while, I had to think hard to remember what had happened during that
period, and then I remembered it was <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">awful</b>.
I felt not only sad and completely wrecked, but also lost, angry, hopeless,
hateful and had all these terrible feelings no one ever wants to have but that
is good we all experience at least once as humans. I even went to therapy.</span></span>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">During that year, besides losing my Mom to
Cancer, I lost my family to egoism, stupidity and lack of understanding (all from their part, of course). I don’t think I’ve
ever talked about it publicly because I didn’t think it was even worth
mentioning but now I feel much more at peace with myself and my life so now I
can bring it up without an issue. So, after all those losses, all I got left was
my sister; she became my only family and pretty much (or so I thought) all I got.
I am thankful that we’re so close and mindful of each other, we always were,
but now it’s different…our relationship is not only better, but it is stronger
and also much happier than it’s ever been. And all of this is thanks to my Mom,
not because she passed away and we had to become close, but because she raised
us in her own way, with her own rules as she had no proper examples to follow
regarding raising a child; still, she did what she thought was best, she gave us
the best of herself, always provided for us, and not only with material
things but also with the most important thing of all: LOVE! No matter what the
situation, the times, the problems…love was there at all times, above all
things. That’s how Mom raised us and perhaps we didn’t appreciate it (or notice
it) as much as we do now as adults but now I am incredibly thankful for that,
because thanks to that, now I know better and am able to actually be a better
person everyday. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">The love that Mom gave me encourages me
everyday to go on and move forward, to fight for what I want, to not give up so
easily; so even in the hard times (like the ones we’ve had a lot of lately), I
feel like I’m stumbling, yes…but I know I won’t fall. I know that, if I’m
strong enough, I will be able to keep ahead and get wherever I want. Because
that’s who my Mom raised me to be. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">I know she is watching and I certainly hope
that, wherever she is right now, she is proud of us and happy to see us happy
with ourselves, with our lives, with what we’ve got -no matter how little or
much it is- because at the end of the day, everything I do is not just for me
or for my sister, but for her. Making her proud is still –and always will be-
one of the main reasons why I do what I do and why I try to be better and make
the best out of life. Although I do get very sad and emotional everytime I see
someone (around my age) with their Mom, or when I see some expats sharing
photos of their Mom’s visiting them in Seoul and stuff, I honestly cry whenever
I see that because I get sad and it makes me really jealous that I will never
get to do that, that Mom won’t come visit me and see how I’m doing so far away
from home, I won’t ever –again- get to see her pretty face full of pride
because of me. </span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">And now you all see me happy and content
with myself, and I am, trust me; but please, don’t you EVER dare to think that
I forgot about Mom and that I don’t think about her and talk to her every
single <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>day, because I do. She is a huge
part of me and no matter how much time it passes or what happens, nothing will
ever change that.</span></span></div>

so much suffering, a lot of hard times and whatnot; now, <b>21 Months after that sad 21</b>, I am really INCREDIBLY
THANKFUL with everything that’s happened in my life; the good, the bad and the
ugly (yes, like the movie!). And, maybe I don’t always know or understand why
certain things happen when they do but I’ve come to terms with the fact that
everything DOES happen for a reason (no matter how cheesy and repetitive it sounds!)
and sometimes we don’t see it right away, but time usually give us the answer
and, in the end, it is all life lessons that we have to learn in order to
become who we’re meant to be. I am also really thankful for having so many
great people in my life, people that in spite of not being related to me by
blood, love me, worry about me, take care of me and is there for me; I’m even
thankful for the random people that life puts in my way even if it’s just for a
bit cause I know there’s a reason for it. And, above all, I am THANKFUL and
HAPPY for My Sister, because without her, nothing would be the same and I would
not be who I am. </span></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">"BITTER, SWEET, SEOUL" (고진감래)</span></b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US"> are not only words
that can perfectly describe the city that is Seoul, but it is also a sort of
movie/documentary by renowned <b>Korean</b> Film <b>Director Park Chan-Wook</b> and his
colleague <b>Park Chan-Hyu</b>n. They made a compound of several video cuts people
from all over the World sent about Seoul and included them in the movie. The
final result is a film that, without an actual storyline, characters or any
kind of structure we may be used to getting in a film, turns out to be a true
movie about Seoul; with the good and sweet things that go on in a city like
this, but also with the bad and bitter ones that people usually don’t talk
about.</span></span></div>

we, the ones who live here, are very well acquainted with.</span></span></div>

appealing to it to justify when someone from another country do or say

Yes, it is very common to see tons of people on the street wearing the same and

right, in Korea, just because someone is older must be treated with respect,
regardless how they treat others. This is a hard one for me, as I learned that
respect is something you earn as opposed to something you’re just entitled to.
It is ok to respect old(er) people, but they make it a really hard thing when
they mistreat you or push you around for no reason.</span></div>

you'll find they do a lot of the things they do due to their eternal pursuit of
health. They will, gladly, buy anything labeled as such, whether it’s a (hand/face/body)

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">And well, that is just some of the things Koreans usually do, but there are a lot more that I will -maybe- talk about later on. There are also a lot of misconceptions about them that I like to talk about such as "all Koreans are tall", "all Koreans are mean", "all Koreans are such bullies", "all Koreans smell like garlic/kimchi", etc...but well, that's a topic for another post. If you have a [mis]conception of Koreans, do let me know!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"></span>This is an article about how to become a <span style="font-weight: bold;">Korean</span> (well, you know, as close as it gets for any foreigner) <span style="font-weight: bold;">in</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">only 10 Days</span>. To accomplish this difficult task, I worked hard during these past few months, but I figured not everyone can be in <span style="font-weight: bold;">Korea</span> for months, so I thought 10 days would be enough; I picked up a few things from my personal <b>Korean </b><i><b>Chingu</b> </i>(friends): <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Hong, Yoonju, Hyuk (aka Baby Bro), Young (aka Oppa), Eunkyung, Jae-min (aka Lame-in), Linda, J and a few more people</span>, who were absolutely awesome.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />So, let's get started. I now present to you a list of things to do to help you get closer to becoming a Korean: </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></span></span></div>

Don't put it in your pocket, the having it always in your hands is crucial for Koreans!</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><b>2013</b> has been a <u>very</u> weird year with a<b> lot of ups</b> and <b>tons of downs</b>. For starters, it's the year that I decided to leave my Home Country (<b>Mexico</b>) if not for good, at least for a <u>long time</u>, I've been abroad for quite some time before but I always had a home there to come back to, this time, I don't. The family that I left there is people I no longer even consider family, instead, it's my friends that I consider my actual family. Anyhow, what's different about me leaving now is that, this time around, I have no intention to go back anytime soon.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The first few months passed by quite fast while I was dealing with a job I was getting too sick of, taking care of legal matters and things that now seem to be irrelevant. Hanging out with our closest friends and taking advantage of our time left together before leaving. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A big thing this year was my Mom's passing 1-year-Anniversary; that was such a difficult Summer, it was sad and melancholic, and hectic, and whatnot, I couldn't (still can't sometimes) believe it had been already one year that Mom had left. Sometimes, I don't even know where/how that entire year went by, I don't know exactly what I did or how I even managed to survive. While still sobbing for my Mom, I was also busy making all the arrangements for what was going to be my new life, which included getting rid or my old home (and everything in it), many of my personal things, taking care of some legal issues I had (have) going on, preparing my 5-week trip to Japan and then prepare to make an attempt at settling down and making a new life in (South, obviously) Korea. Too much going on by then, internal and externally so, by the time I left Mexico, I was pretty worn out, but ready for a new adventure. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Besides the whole trip itself, one
thing that I was excited about was the fact that I was going to spend my
Mumsy's Bday close to her (in the sky!) coz I'd be flying then. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I was particularly sad to leave my house, rather than Mexico itself, because all of the memories I have of that house involved Mom and, after she passed, instead of feeling sad or weird being there, it felt cozy and safe; it might sound strange, I know, but that's how it felt and I liked that, I felt protected in a way. So, leaving that place and detaching from it was a bit of a difficult thing for me to do, but only at the beginning 'cause now I know all my Mom's memories are with me ALWAYS and everywhere I go, so after a few days it was just alright.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In March, my BFF came to visit me all the way from India, that was one of the coolest things in the year! Also went to see the Yeah Yeah Yeah's, one of my fave bands ever! And got even closer with my close friends.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Before leaving, I tried saying goodbye to all my friends (the few I got left anyway) but that didn't work out very well, all I can say now is that I did try because I knew I wasn't gonna see them again in a long time, but they probably didn't take that into consideration -or maybe just didn't care?- and didn't meet me to say goodbye. Oh well. I also got the chance to reunite with the family that we got left, went to Jalapa and saw some old friends as well.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">So, we got done everything that had to be done, picked up our (HUGE!) backpacks, went to have our last <b>Tacos</b> with some good friends and then, there we were...at the airport...I wish I could say I was ready for it but I wasn't, in fact, I started getting really nervous about the whole thing and doubted myself and what I was about to do and this time, it would matter more because I wasn't by myself, this time, Gichef was with me and that changed the whole thing. However, I had no choice, what was done was done and I couldn't change it, so I just grabbed my passport, showed it to the airline people, went to find my seat, sat, took a deep breath and hoped for a brighter/happier future.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Many, many hours and just one short stop later (we left Mexico City on the 29th and arrived in Tokyo on the 31st!), we were on the other side -pun intended. We spent the next five weeks in <b>Japan</b> doing a WorkCamp and traveling, and -heat&humidity hell aside- I was completely ecstatic about it, I fell in love with Japan almost instantly. So, by the time I had to leave, I was a bit bummed out even though I was about to start -yet- another big adventure in Seoul, Korea.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The first few <strike>weeks</strike> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">days in Seoul, it was kind of hard for me to adjust, to be honest; I kept thinking of Japan and how much of a great time I had had there -which maybe made it even a bit more difficult. So, I got tired of "sobbing" around and decided to embrace the new place. Then, we started doing many things in the City and I started liking it. It took me about a month but I finally started loving Seoul. I am not particularly fond of birthdays but when my <b>birthday</b> came this year, I wanted to do something special, so Gichef and I went to my fave place in Seoul: <b>Yeouido Park</b> by the Han River, took wine, music and had a small birthday celebration -that's still one of my favorite days in 2013. The next day, we were off to <b>Jeju Island</b> and I was super excited about it since it was a place I was eager to visit.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">When we came back, the vacation inception (vacation within the vacation lol) was over and we started working at the Korean (Media) Company that hired us -and for which, basically, we decided to give Korea a shot- and, even though it was hard, it was also fun as we were doing things that we liked and were (are) passionate about. It was hard because the Korean way of working is QUITE different from the Mexican way (if there is such a thing, anyway); or maybe Gisela and I focus too much on being good and efficient while Koreans only focus on being good and taking forever to get there, so it was very frustrating at times, but all in all, we really liked the job, with its 17-hour workdays and all! In the end, a personal fallout with the owner of the company (who was also Gisela's friend and our roomate) screwed everything up and we ended up quitting the job, not because we didn't wanna keep on working there, but because he made it impossible to have a "human" (cordial and respectful) relationship with him, so we felt forced to leave the job...and his house, on the same night.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Which led to us crashing at our Youngsik Oppa's studio for a week before flying out to Japan. That was a tough week, Seoul started getting quite cold and my Mexican self wasn't used to it so I suffered a bit, but I manned up and handled it lol During that week, we said goodbye to all of our new friends we had made as we thought we'd be leaving, if not for good, for a while. I couldn't believe it but I was really sad to leave, I was already in love with Korea and had made it my home so leaving was overwhelming. Even though I LOVE Japan, I was miserable that week...for the most part, anyway. Then, we finally figured it out and a sign was given to us that we could come back...so we did. We were super excited about it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We've been back in Korea for about three weeks now and even though I am happy about it, I can't help but feel a bit over nervous and overwhelmed as we're in a completely different situation; we had to find a new apartment by ourselves and are now looking for new jobs and doing everything in our power to make it work, though this time, there is no "safety net", it's just me and Gisela, Gisela and me, for good and/or for bad. Sometimes, I feel very optimistic about the whole thing and <strike>I'm sure</strike></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> I believe we'll make it, but there are these other times, when I feel quite the opposite and get kinda depressed about it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Now, I don't know what's going to happen this 2014 but I know 2 things: 1) I will not be going back to Mexico and 2) At least, I have my Perritow with me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">So, all in all, I think 2013 was a good year, not the best of course, but not the worst either, I even think it was better than okay and I feel VERY blessed for all the things that happened to me (both, good and bad), for everything I learned, for everything I gained (learning-wise), for all the opportunities life has given me to be where I am and, especially, for all the people I met and because I really never thought it would happen once more, but this year, I was <b>HAPPY</b> again. And I traveled a lot, with <b>Captain Wodjah</b> and my faithful (though quite heavy) camera by my side, as usual. Oh, and went to many concerts, which always makes me happy!</span><br />
