Hey guys, so today I’m going to be talking about dancing since the Japan trip is coming up.
A lot of you may have seen me and my friends dancing to As If It’s Your Last by Blackpink outside of the middle school building and you may be wondering why. Well, it’s for the JST because we have to perform it at the school and the banquet. We are almost ready, and we just need to polish it. It was also really fun to learn and dance to.
Dancing can be good for you because it’s fun and it provides exercise. It can also improve your mental health and boost your happiness. It’s also a great social activity and it can improve your balance. Best of all, anyone can dance!
Sometimes during recess, hmsmari, hmsraya, hmssarah, and I do a kpop random play dance, which is really fun even though I don’t know most of the dances. If you don’t know, a random play dance is when you put multiple songs together into a large mashup and you dance to the songs’ choreographies. I’ve actually learned a lot of the dances by watching Mari, Sarah, and Raya as well as watching dance practices a lot. We have a lot of fun doing it, even though I sit out most of the time cuz I only know a few dances… but it’s still fun. Sometimes a large group of people get together and do a large random play dance in public, which you can find on youtube.
Well, that’s all for now! Bye!

I could only find this picture, but if you want to look it up, then you can.
Hey guys, so before we start this, let me just say one thing: LEAVE CHAN ALONE HE DOESN’T DESERVE THIS AND HE PROBABLY DIDN’T EVEN HAVE A CHOICE!
Okay… So, you’re probably wondering what the heck that was about. This happened a while ago, and I feel really bad for what happened and I just want to address it. Anyway, this all happened at a Stray Kids fansign. Everything was going well, until people saw Chan’s hair. That day, Chan was wearing cornrows and many people, including fans, saw this as racist and culturally insensitive. They then started to chant stuff like “ot8” and “2racha”, calling him racist and culturally insensitive, and eventually made him cry.
So, why am I bringing this up? Well, I find it unfair that all this is happening to him. He’s a kpop idol and he probably didn’t get to choose his hairstyle, since he has stylists that do his hair for him. Also, all Stays should know that Chan is anything but racist or culturally insensitive. In a 3racha song, Chan said “ninjas” and people thought he was saying a bad word. Then, in another 3racha song called PACE he implied that it was just a misunderstanding in a verse that he rapped, which was: “Listen up, I’m pretty sure you heard wrong. I said ninjas, fam I think you misheard. Cuz I represent and show respect to all people around the whole world.” In one of their songs in their recent album called Miroh, Chan incorporated the Haka dance, which is an ancient Maori ceremonial dance, into their choreography. He took the time to learn and understand the dance before using it.
I also think it’s unfair that in Exo’s Kokobop, one of the members, Kai, also wore cornrows, but no one called him racist. Chan cares for Stays so much, and this is how they treat him. It’s just a hairstyle and he deserves much more than this. I’m honestly very disappointed in all the Stays that called him racist and culturally insensitive or chanted ot8 and 2racha. Do you think this is fair?
Well, that’s all for now! Bye!

Also, here’s an article addressing what I was talking about.
Hey guys! So today, I’ll be talking about drawing.
I love drawing. It’s a way to express your creativity and it helps you improve your hand-eye coordination. Drawing also helps you improve your concentration and your attention to details. It can also be used to relieve stress or as a form of therapy and it’s something almost anyone can do.
Drawing can also be used as part of your career, like if you’re an animator, like Eroldstory or Domics, or even hmsnatalie, who has started animating. If you’re an animator, your drawing don’t have to be complex. Take the odd1sout for example, his drawing style is so simple that anyone could draw it. I actually tried drawing in his art style for a social studies project, and it was really easy and fun.
I’ve been drawing as a hobby for less than a year now, and I can say that I’ve improved a bit during this time. Here’s when I first started as a hobby:
Picture taken by me
Eww. Who drew this? (I did) It’s so bad they all look the same and they don’t even have hands. You also can barely see the small people’s faces. I remember I had to draw around 46 different people and I didn’t like it. Anyway, here’s one of my more recent ones:
Picture taken by me
I like this one it’s much better compared to the other one. I worked on this for about 2 hours or however long Infinity War lasted because my parents were watching it while I was sitting behind the couch drawing. One of the things I struggled with was the hands because for some reason, hands are really hard to draw.
Anyway, that’s all for now! Bye!

Hey guys! Webtoon Series No. 8! Today I’ll be talking about Save Me, the BTS webtoon.
Save Me is based off of the I NEED U music video and the events that happen in it. Save Me takes place two years after Jin, Yoongi, Hoseok, Namjoon, Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook, who supposedly grow apart after highschool. In the story, after splitting up, Jin moves to America, Namjoon gets a job at a gas station, and the rest of the members move on. Although, things don’t go right in the two years that Jin is gone.
Save Me follows the story of Jin, who moves back to Korea after living in America. Once he gets back, however, he finds out that a series of misfortunes befalls on his friends. Namjoon gets sent to prison, Taehyung murders his abusive father, Jungkook and Yoongi commit suicide, and Jimin and Hoseok are sent to the hospital. Jin is then given a chance to go back in time and save them from their misfortunes, which all happens on the same day. If he fails to save even one, the day starts over again, causing him to live in a time loop.
I would recommend this to people who like BTS and who like drama and stories like this. I really like this webtoon because the plot and story is really interesting and it makes you want to read more.
Well, that’s all for now! Bye!
