You think you'd never change-
But i think we all do.

2012-01-21T08:40:00.001-08:00

Searching and doing.

2012-01-20T17:15:00.001-08:00

Practice.

2012-01-20T17:12:00.001-08:00

Mom.

2012-01-20T17:10:00.001-08:00

Every moment counts.

2012-01-20T11:36:00.001-08:00

Thinking of good memories and good things to come.
Listening to Billie Holiday's I'll be Seeing You.

The feeling that you're doing something right now,

the fast pace, it makes you feel alive.

당신이 지금 무언가를 하고 있다는 것,

그 빠른 페이스는 당신이 살아있다는 것을 느끼게 해준다.

But getting used to the speedy, hectic routine makes you forget

how to stay through the quiet, slow days.

하지만 그 빠르고 바쁜 생활에 익숙해지면

조용하고 느린 하루를 어떻게 보내는지 까먹게된다.

This is probably why I get so insecure when I'm alone

and have too much time in my hands.

내가 혼자있거나 시간이 너무 많을때 불안해지는것이

바로 그 이유가 아닌가 싶다.

It's a bad habit;

it seems to me that if one doesn't know how to enjoy his/her time alone,

there is no self-development.

그리고 그건 나쁜 습관이다. 사람이 혼자있는 시간을 즐길줄 모르면

자기개발도 없기 때문이다.

People will be around you a lot of times,

but the rest of the day you will be at home or office, where you'll be alone.

보통은 사람들이 주위에 있을것이다. 하지만 그외의 시간에

당신은 혼자있게 된다.

And in a lifetime, this moment will add up into years.

길게 보면 혼자있는 시간이 몇년이 된다.

Wouldn't you want to make years of your life worthwhile?

Yup.

당신이라면

인생의 몇년을 의미있게 보내고 싶지 않겠는가?

My beloved ones told me this today, and it's so clear now:

we are no different from animals at some moments during the day.

나의 소중한 사람들이 사실 하나를 말해주었다.

이제 그게 너무나 선명하게 느껴진다:

하루중 어떤 순간에는 우리가 동물과 다르지않다는것.

When we want so badly to be like skinny models,

when we do whatever it takes to get what is ours,

when we get jealous or upset because of someone you want to be with.

우리가 마른 모델처럼 되고싶어할때,

무언가를 가지기위해 수단과방법을 가리지않을때,

우리가 함께하고싶어하는 누군가때문에 질투하고 화를 낼때.

It may not be every second of the day.

아마도 매일 매초가 이렇진 않을것이다.

But when we are at these extreme moments-

trying too hard to appear pretty to the other sex,

crushing others to protect our asset,

being irrational because of your lover-

we become a little too much like animals.

하지만 우리가 이런 극도의 상황에 이를때-

이성에게 멋져보이고 싶어 자신을 닥달할때,

우리의 재산을 지키려 남을 파괴할때,

사랑하는 사람때문에 이성을 잃을때-

우리는 너무 동물과 같이 변한다.

A little of these moments are natural.

They can be a beautiful part of human life.

이런 순간들이 조금 있는건 당연한것이다.

그리고 이는 인간의 삶중 아름다운 부분들이기도 하다.

But when you run too wild into these moments,

you are losing the ability to think, the element that divides us from animals.

하지만 우리가 이런 순간에 너무 휘둘리게 된다면,

동물과 구분되는 우리의

'생각하는 힘'을 잃는것이다.

2011-07-21T01:32:00.000-07:00

Sleepless in Manhattan.

So I sit there designing and studying.

맨해튼에서의 잠못이루는 밤.

그래서 난 여기에 앉아 디자인을 하고 공부를 한다.

And it isn't as bad as you think.

그리고 그건 생각보다 나쁘지않다.

I feel so good knowing that this can actually take me somewhere.

이런 생활이 날 발전시켜준다는 걸

알기때문에 기분이 너무 좋다.

2011-07-17T15:02:00.000-07:00

I kinda want to be the best.

I love the feeling of pushing forward.

정말 최고가 되고싶다.

나는 앞으로 밀고나가는 느낌이 좋으니까.

2011-07-17T00:41:00.000-07:00

This was my first Fourth of July in NY. 뉴욕에서 처음 보내는 독립기념일.

And it was pretty damn beautiful.

With new friends and excitement...

정말 꽤 아름다웠다. 새 친구들과 기대감 속에서.

2011-06-02T18:43:00.000-07:00

We think we are better than others.

And this makes us feel better.

It also makes us pompous.

우린 남들보다 낫다고 생각한다.

그것이 우리의 기분을 좋게해주지만

우리를 자만으로 가득 채우기도 한다..

Maybe some of us are smarter, prettier, wealthier, better than others.

어쩌면 우리중 몇몇은 남보다 더 똑똑하거나 예쁘고

부자일수도 있고, 정말 더 나을수도 있다.

But the important thing is to become modest,

and always be open to new things, opportunities to learn from others.

하지만 중요한것은 겸손해지는것이고,

항상 새로운 것들 그리고 남에게서 배울수있는 기회를

놓치지않는 것이다.

2011-05-31T02:15:00.000-07:00

So you had feelings for someone.

It's okay even if it's over.

'Cause there's always another one waiting for you.

당신이 누군가에게 감정이 있었다고.

그게 끝났어도 괜찮아요.

왜냐면 항상 또 다른 사람이 기다리니까.

Does it sound too unrealistic?

Maybe..

But I personally don't think so.

너무 현실적이지 못한가요?

그럴수도 있지만

나는 그렇게 생각하지 않아요.

2011-05-06T19:13:00.000-07:00

The best drawings have well-cut form of objects.

The objects' basic form/proportion needs to be close to perfect to look real.

잘 그린 그림들은 물체의 형태가 깨끗하게 나온다.

진짜처럼 보이기위해선 사물의 형태/비율이 거의 완벽해야한다.

Getting a tiny corner of a bottle out of proportion-

that's getting the whole bottle into trouble.

물병의 조그만 구석을 비율에 안맞게 그리는건

그 병 전체를 망가뜨리는것이나 마찮가지이다.

How to avoid little mistakes mounting into a whole pile?

It is to practice not to make small mistakes.

어떻게 작은 실수들이 큰 무더기로 변하는걸 막을까?

그건 그 조그만 실수를 하지 않도록 연습하는것.

2011-05-05T02:39:00.000-07:00

One of the nutrients of life is "friend."

삶의 진정한 양식 중 하나는

"친구"이다.

No matter how long you have stayed apart,

or no matter how different your lives have become,

you will meet and talk as if you saw each other just yesterday.

얼마나 오래 떨어져있었는지

또 둘의 삶이 얼마나 다르게 변했는지에 상관없이

마치 어제만났던것처럼 대화할 것이다.

2011-05-02T08:21:00.000-07:00

Everyone deserves so much more than they think.

모든사람은 그들이 생각하는 것보다 훨씬 많은 것을 가져야마땅하다.

But our heads are always clouded with the thought that

we cannot have everything we want;

then we get hungry with the feeling that we starve

for the things we cannot have.

우리의 머릿속은 원하는 모든것을

가질수는 없다는 생각으로 막혀있고

가질수없는 것들을 보며

굶주리고 괴로워한다.

The harmful cycle goes and comes around,

leaving us grouchy when we cannot afford any more negative feelings.

이런 해로운 순환이 계속되면

부정적 감정이 가득하고도 남는 삶속에서도 더

우리는 불만스러워진다.

But is it really impossible to have everything?

I believe we deserve more than we think,

and we can always make it happen.

We're always simply blinding ourselves with hurtful thoughts.

하지만 모든것을 가진다는게 가능한가?

나는 우리모두 그럴수있다고 믿는다.

단지 모두들 자신에게 상처줄만한 생각들로

눈이 먼 상태일 뿐이다.

2011-04-23T00:29:00.000-07:00

Things get out of hand.

항상 무언가가 감당하기 힘들어진다.

You discover something pointless in what you have done for decades.

Or believe in something when you know it's not going to get you anywhere.

당신이 몇십년동안 해왔던 것이 아무 의미도 없다는 것을 느끼게 되고

어떤 믿음이 당신에게 변화를 주지 못할걸 걸 알면서도 계속 믿는다.

Maybe you failed to do what you were always good at,

and spent days or years in painful silence injured by the fiasco.

어쩌면 당신이 항상 잘해왔던 것을 한번 실패하고

수많은 날들, 아니 몇년씩이나 고통스런 고요함속에서

상처받은 채 지냈는지도 모른다.

Am I weak? Why only me- when everyone else is doing so well?

나는 약했던건가? 나만 왜- 다른 사람들은 모두 잘하고 있는데?

But that lucky chance (which everyone-except you- oddly seems to have)

does come along.

It's just a matter of time.

하지만 그 운좋은 찬스

(꼭 당신만 없고 모든 다른이들은 가지고 있는것만같은)

그건 반드시 온다. 시간차이일 뿐이다.

I believe that you can make it happen some day.

난 당신이 언젠가 해낼수있다고 믿는다.

Maybe when you have your first daughter, while you mop the floor at Denny's,

after getting fired, or when you're just sitting in front of a TV.

언젠가 당신이 첫 딸을 얻을때, 아니면 패스트푸드점 바닥을 청소하고있을때,

어쩌면 해고 당한 후일수도있고 그냥 티비앞에 앉아있을 때일수도 있다.

But first, start thinking about "how" you can get better.

그렇지만 우선은 당신이 "어떻게" 나아질수있는가를 생각해야한다.

The belief that I can be anything and do anything I want-

it gradually grows inside your head, once you get into the effort zone.

아무나 될수있고 하고싶은 어떤거든 할수있다는 믿음-

그건 당신이 노력하기 시작하는 순간 머릿속에서 서서히 자라난다.

2011-04-06T23:42:00.000-07:00

I appreciate busy days:

난 바쁜 날들에 감사한다.

it's one of the best ways of making yourself worthwhile.

-not that you're worth any less when without work.

그건 당신의 가치를 높일 수 있는 방법 중 하나다.

(물론 일하지않을때 당신의 가치가 떨어진다는 건 아니다)

2011-04-05T20:10:00.000-07:00

The ability to improvise can be admirable.

Tendency to wait until the last moment- not so much.

즉석에서 뭔가를 해낼수있는 건 알아줄만한 능력이다.

하지만 항상 즉석에서 하려는 태도는 그렇지 못하다.

If you like improvisation than preparation,

you may excel at performing something even without a few days of getting ready;

준비하는 것보다 즉흥적인걸 좋아하는 사람은

대비할 시간 없이도 어떤 것을 훌륭하게 해낼지도 모른다.

but when you're given years until your d-day,

you'll be lost on what to do during the long, helpless wait for the final moment.

그런 사람에게 결전의 날까지 몇 년을 준다면

안타깝게도 그는 무엇을 해야할지 모르는 나머지

길고 긴 시간을 무력하게 보낼 것이다.

2011-03-25T22:46:00.000-07:00

If you keep on looking for a new medium,

if you are willing to learn new things,

you will always find yourself getting closer to success.

당신이 새로운 도구를 찾고

새로운 것을 배우려 한다면

항상 성공에 가까워지는 자신을 발견할것이다.

Don't get bored of your life because youre doing the same thing everyday.

자신이 매일 똑같은 일을 한다고 지루해하지 말자.

You just need to think of a new medium to spark up your life.

당신의 삶을 반짝이게 만들어줄 새로운 도구를

발견하기만 하면된다.

So i'm trying new mediums in my drawings too.

Charcoals. for now. One step at a time.

2011-03-23T00:00:00.000-07:00

If only one could be aware of all the little details.

It's like closing your eyes and remembering what your house looks like.

You remember the big table, chairs, and the bookshelf;

but you probably won't remember the number of magazines on the table

or which books were on the lower shelf of your bookcase.

우리가 모든 세세한 것들을 볼수있다면.

그건 눈을 감고 당신의 집이 어떻게 생겼는지 기억하는것과도 같다.

보통 큰 테이블과 의자들 그리고 책장은 기억할 수 있어도

그 테이블 위에 몇개의 잡지가 있는지

아니면 제일 낮은 책장에 어떤 책이 꽂혀있는지는

아마도 기억하지 못할 것이다.

We're always looking at things

according to the priority and function.

And naturally we are unaware of things of little value.

우리는 항상 모든것을 중요성과 역할을 따져가며 보기때문에

가치가 작은 것들은 무심코 지나친다.

This applies to everything in life.

이건 삶의 모든것에 해당된다.

If a person is unaware of the minor problems in his personality,

he will never be able to figure out why his relationship often becomes a hassle.

만일 어떤 사람이 자기 성격의 작은 결함들을 지나친다면

왜 자신의 대인관계들이 항상 버거운지 알지 못할 것이다.

2011-03-20T19:59:00.000-07:00

The important moments of our lives:

discouraging times and giving up

moments of big and small success

saddening episodes and accidents

days spent with amazing people

inevitable and forced choices

opportunities and golden tickets.

우리의 인생에서 중요한 순간들:

실망하고 포기할 때

크고 작은 성공을 거둘 때

슬픈 일들과 사고

멋진 사람들과의 날들

피할수 없거나 강요된 결정

그리고 기회와 골든 티켓.

Whether they're big or small, most of us have been through it once.

And it will come again.

그게 크고 작던 상관없이

많은 사람들은 이 모든것을 한번정도는 겪어보았다.

그리고 이 순간들은 아마도 다시 올것이다.

The difference this time is that you will be prepared.

하나 다른 점은 당신이 이번엔 준비가 되어있을 것이라는 사실.

2011-03-19T20:51:00.000-07:00

Don't give up because of emotional exhaustion.

조금 지쳤다고 포기하지말자.

You can overcome the situation by thinking about the better things,

about where you'll be once you go over that fence.

더 나은 것들을 생각하며 이런 상황을 정복할수있다.

저 울타리를 넘어가면 내가 어디에 있을지를 생각하며.

-the fence that often looks stupidly tall.

물론 그 울타리들은 전부 하나같이 높아보인다.

2011-03-05T01:39:00.000-08:00

The desire to be perfect drives you to be better.

완벽해지고 싶은 욕구는 당신을 더 낫게 만든다.

The bad thing about perfectionism is that it makes you get depressed

over the smallest mistakes. So you don't want to show up unprepared,

or you always have to look smart, pretty, nice, etc.

그리고 완벽주의는 작은 실수 하나에

당신의 기분이 상하도록 만들 수도 있다.

그래서 당신은 준비없이 약속장소에 가는것이 싫고

항상 똑똑하고 예쁘거나 착한 사람으로 보이고싶어한다.

The better way to treat yourself is to accept the tiny flaws.

Get used to them and then you'll start loving yourself more.

And at one point, you'll realize that you are actually happy.

나를 대하는데 있어 더 나은 방법은

나의 조그만 단점들을 받아들이는 것이다.

그것에 익숙해지면 자신을 더 아끼기 시작한다.

나중에는 정말 행복한 나를 발견하게 된다.

2011-02-28T14:17:00.000-08:00

I think too much, somtimes. Plan ahead and worry beforehand.

Think about why and how when they don't really matter.

Maybe sometimes the little things do need to be ignored.

생각을 너무 많이 한다. 미래를 계획하고 미리 걱정하고

사실 아무 상관없는데도 왜 그리고 어떻게했는지 고민한다.

어쩌면 조그만 문제들은 정말 무시해야되는지도 모른다.

2011-02-20T22:29:00.000-08:00

Keep yourself on the road. They say you need to take it slow and relax,

but there is a time in a person's life when things start running at an entirely opposite direction.

계속 도로 위로 달려라. 주변사람들은 천천히 그리고 편하게 하라고 한다.

하지만 한번쯤은 당신의 인생이 전혀 다른 방향으로 꺾일때가 있다.

This is the chance to turn your life around,

to turn yourself into a better, brighter thing that you wanted to be.

When you feel that you're there, don't stop to look at any discouragement or temptation.

그건 당신의 삶을 바꿀수있는 기회 그리고

당신자신을 상상속의 더 밝은 존재로 바꿀수있는 기회다.

그 때가 왔다는걸 느꼈다면 당신을 낙담시키는 것이나

당신을 유혹하는 것에는 더이상 눈을 돌리지 말자.

Maybe you might have to turn someone down for your life-changing decision.

Or give up the good old things to start off with the new stuff.

어쩌면 당신만의 중요한 결정을 위해 다른 사람과의 약속을 어겨야할지도 모른다.

또 새로운 출발을 위해 옛날부터 쌓아온 정든 것들을 포기해야 할 수도 있다.

But still, never look back until you are at the highest place

그래도 그 높은 곳에 도착하기전까지는 뒤돌아보면안된다.

Of course, at one point in your future, you'll question if your decision in the past was right,

and if you are living the life you wanted.

물론 미래에 어느 한순간 당신은 과거에 맞는 결정을 내렸는지

그 삶이 과연 당신이 원했던 것인지 고민할것이다.

But the question here is this:

would you rather dream about the road wanted but not taken?

If you have a chance, grab the chance and start running. No matter what others tell you.

하지만 여기에서 나의 질문은 이것:

옛날에 선택하지 않은 내 꿈의 길에 대해 그저 상상하고 싶은가?

당신에게 기회가 온다면 그것을 꽉 잡고 달려보자.

사람들이 뭐라고 하든간에.

2011-02-13T00:34:00.000-08:00

Firework by Katy Perry has some inpiring lyrics..

케이티 페리의 '불꽃놀이' 가사를 떠올리며..

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,
drifting through the wind

그렇게 느낀적이 있나요

wanting to start again?

당신이 바람에 쓸려가버린 비닐봉투같아

처음부터 다시 시작하고 싶은 마음

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin

또 종이와도 같이 얇아서
like a house of cards,
one blow from caving in?

카드로 지어논 성같이

약한 바람 한번에 무너질것같은.

Do you ever feel, already buried deep?

이미 저 밑에 묻혀있는것같은 느낌이 들지는 않나요?
Six feet under, Scream but no one seems to hear a thing

소리질러도 아무도 당신을 못 듣는 그곳에.

Do you know that there's still a chance for you

아직 기회가 있다는 건 아나요?

'Cause there's a spark in you

당신에겐 불꽃이 숨어있다는것.

You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine

불을 붙여 밝게 빛내기만 하면되요
Just own the night like the 4th of July
자기만의 밤으로 만드는거죠 독립일의 그때처럼

'Cause baby you're a firework

당신은 하나의 불꽃이에요
Come on, show 'em what you're worth

그렇게 당신이 얼마나 가치있나 보여주세요
Make 'em go, "Oh, Oh, Oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

하늘로 쏘아 올라가는 당신을 보며

모두가 오!하고 탄성하도록

Baby, you're a firework

당신은 하나의 불꽃놀이
Come on, let your colors burst

당신의 색깔들을 퍼뜨려보세요

Make 'em go, "Oh! Oh! Oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

모두가 당신을 보며 탄성을 지르고 말을 잃겠죠

You don't have to feel like a waste of space

자신이 그저 공간이나 낭비하는 존재라고는 하지마세요
You're original, you cannot be replaced

당신은 어떤것으로 대신할수없는 그런 특별한 존재.

If you only knew what the future holds

누구도 모르는 미래를 단정지을순 없지요
After a hurricane, comes a rainbow

허리케인이 지나간 후에도 무지개는 찾아오니까요.

Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed

사방의 문들이 모두 닫혀있는 있는 이유는
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road

당신이 직접 문을 열어야

찾고있던 그 길이 나타나기 때문인지도 몰라요

Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
번개 한줄기처럼 당신의 마음이 빛날거에요

And when it's time, you'll know

때가오면 당신은 알거에요.

2011-02-07T09:37:00.000-08:00

People have the desire to prove themselves right, successful, lovable, smart, etc.

But they will never be able to prove themselves in any way

until they get that thought out of their heads.

True respect usually comes from the lack of self-importance.

And that's... always easy...

사람들은 자신의 존재를 증명하고 싶어한다.

옳다거나 성공했다거나 사랑스럽고 똑똑할수도 있다는걸.

하지만 그 생각을 없애지 않는한 그들은 아무것도 증명하지 못할 것이다.

가슴에서 우러나는 존경은 자신의 중요성이 없어질때에 비로소 찾아온다.

그리고 그렇게 하는 건 생각보다 어렵다.

2011-01-13T18:09:00.000-08:00

Things that make you laugh.

They're one of the many things we take for granted.

당신을 웃게 만드는것.

사람들은 그런 것들을 그냥 지나치곤한다.

There are days you spend all tired out and without a single laugh,

and there are days when you catch up with your important ones and have a good laugh.

These may be very small things; but there's a big difference between those days.

하루는 피곤함에 웃음 한점 없이 보낼 수도있지만

다른 하루는 소중한 이들과 놓쳤던 시간을 메꾸며 크게 웃을수도 있다.

참 사소한 것들이지만

그 두 하루에는 큰 차이가 있다.

2011-01-11T12:09:00.000-08:00

When your head is full of worries or plans or others,

you forget what you've just done a few minutes earlier.

We are always preoccupied.

We can think about that one thing for the whole day-

when we open a book, go swimming, take a holiday, etc.

Being preoccupied with something nibbles away the time that can be enjoyable, more lifelike.

고민이나 다른 생각으로 머리가 꽉 찼을때는

몇분전에 뭘 했는지조차도 잊어버린다.

그렇게 우리는 항상 뭔가에 정신을 빼앗기곤한다.

그것 하나만 생각하며

책을 읽고 수영을하고 휴가를 보낼수도있다.

지나친 고민을 하는 건 우리가 즐기고 삶처럼 살수있는 시간을 야금야금 빼앗아간다.

Let's not worry about the things we can do nothing about.

In other words, simply brush your teeth when you brush your teeth.

어쩔수없는 문제들로 더이상 고민하지말자.

양치질 할때는 양치질만 할것.

2011-01-02T16:36:00.000-08:00

Why do I have to do the right thing?

Those born to be nice and honest are blessed.

But humans are usually not that way. And we ask this question:

Why do things the right way when no one cares?

As all solutions are, the answer is quite simple.

It's not about the people around you.

"You can cheat if everyone else in the room cheats.

You can treat someone like trash if others do."

Of course you can. But you shouldn't.

Peer pressure and Blending in- where is your conscience?

You can choose all the wrong paths and get away with it,

but you will always remember what you did.

Doing the right thing is not about others or how they look at you.

It's about the happiness that you can earn for yourself.

왜 옳은 일만 해야할까?

친절하고 정직하게 태어났다면 그는 복받은 사람이다.

하지만 인간이란 그렇지 못하기에 이런 질문을 한다:

다른 누구도 상관하지 않는데 뭣하러 정직한 길을 선택하나?

모든 답이 그렇듯이 이 대답도 간단하다.

이건 다른사람들에 관한게 아니라는 것.

"이 방의 모든 사람이 반칙을 한다면 당신도 해도 된다.

다른 사람들이 누군가를 못되게 대우한다면 당신도 그래도된다."

당연히 할수야있다. 하지만 그래서는 안될일.

집단압력 그리고 어울리려는 소망-

당신의 양심은 어디있는가?

못된 일을 하고 아무일 없이 살아갈 수도 있지만

자기자신이 한일은 언제까지나 기억하게된다.

옳은 일은 한다는 건 다른사람들에 관한것도,

그들이 당신을 어떻게 보느냐에 관한 것도 아니다.

그것은 당신이 자신을 위해 벌 수있는 행복에 관한 것이다.

2010-12-28T08:12:00.000-08:00

The fear of losing.

If you think about it, the possible loss can always be filled.

But when it comes to change, we think of at least one scenario

that results in a possible, and terrible, minus:

losing a good deal, an important object, a good relationship, etc.

These scenarios tend to look bigger than they are,

so we shrink before that awful thing called change.

In reality, however, change is never too big.

And even if the loss as the result of change is horrendous,

you will be amazed at how much emotional resilience you have against it.

잃는 것에 대한 두려움.
뭔가를 잃었을때 그공간은 언제든지 채울수있다.
하지만 변화라는 개념앞에서 우리는
무언가를 잃는 시나리오를 적어도 하나정도 생각해놓는다.
그 무서운 마이너스란
중요한 거래를 놓친다거나 좋은 관계를 끝내는 등의 결과를 말한다.
이런 상황극은 실제보다 그 타격이 커보이기에
우리는 변화앞에서 주눅든다.
그렇지만 변화란 절대 지나치게 크지않다.
변화를 위해 잃는다는것이 그 당시에는 끔찍하게 느껴진다해도
당신은 차차 적응하는 자기자신 그리고 그 회복력에 놀랄것이다.

The title is: "The Scent of Woman." Just like the movie.

There is this scene where Al Pacino, a blind man,

asks a young, beautiful woman for a tango,

smoothly dances across the floor,

and does this as if he could see everything around him.

One needs an endless amount of practice to be good at things.

But never be discouraged. Because what we call lifetime is a pretty long time.

"여인의 향기."
그 영화속에는 맹인 역의 알파치노가
젊고 아름다운 여인에게 탱고를 청하는 장면이 있다.
그는 마치 주위의 모든것을 볼수있는것처럼
한치의 실수도 없이 춤을 마무리한다.

사람은 어떤 일을 잘하기 위해서는 끝없는 연습이 필요하다.
하지만 낙담하지는 말것. 우리가 흔히 말하는 일생이란 꽤 긴 시간이니까.

2010-12-19T21:42:00.000-08:00

Everything has a value.
모든 것은 가치가 있다.

We find ourselves loving some things for the amusements and benefits.

And hate others for their dullness and harm.

Naturally it's easy to hate and adore things without looking directly into their values.

What are the reasons to your opinion?

They maybe just one-sided, short-sighted, or just blind. But it's okay.

Once you realize where the blind spot is, you learn a little bit more about this world.

가끔 보면 우리는 어떤것이 주는 즐거움과 이익때문에 그것을 좋아하고
지루하거나 해로운 것은 싫어한다.
사람들은 어떤 물건이나 존재의 가치에는 관계없이 그를 싫어하거나 좋아한다고 하기쉽다.
당신의 의견 속 근거는 무엇인가?
의견이란 한쪽으로만 치우치기도하고,
그 속 생각이 짧기도하며,
단순히 근거없이 눈먼 편견이기도하다.
하지만 그래도 괜찮다.
그런 의견뒤에 안보이던 삼각지대가 어디있는지 찾아내기만 한다면
이세상에 대해 조금 더 배울수있다는 것.

2010-12-18T00:18:00.000-08:00

Water-color paintings.

Theme: Eyes in emotion.

This one's happiness. The hardest one for me to draw.

수채화.

테마: 감정속의 눈

첫번째는 "행복"이다. 그리기 제일 어려웠던.

Sadness. A lil' bit of disappointment, maybe.

슬픔. 어쩌면 조금의 실망도.

Anger,

분노,

Seduction?

유혹?

Hmm. Conspiracy.

음모를 꾸미는 듯한 눈빛.

Hard to tell,

but this is my version of shyness.

Also works as the innocent eyes.

조금 알아보기 힘들지만

내가 해석하는 "수줍음"은 이렇다.

그냥 순진무구한 눈이라고 해도 괜찮을듯.

This is another one of my own interpretations:

love.

With a hint of compassion and some fear.

Funny thing about drawings is that a person can show all his/her potential.

The other side of it is that it's only limited to the capacity of the person's experience.

I want to make the eyes more realistic,

but they're inevitably missing what I don't know in life.

나만의 해석 또하나:

사랑.

조금의 동정심 그리고 두려움과 함께.

그림은 그리는사람의 잠재력/특기를 보여줄수있다.

그러나 그림이 보여주는 건 그사람의 경험에 제한되어 있기도하다.

나는 이 눈동자들을 더 실감나게 그리고싶지만

안타깝게도 내가 삶에서 모르는 면들은 표현할수가 없다.

2010-11-27T15:52:00.000-08:00

Make a decision today, and stick to it!

I made one just now, and it's gonna be a big change.

Y'all ready?

Day One.

자신만의 결심을 하고 끈기있게 해보자.

나는 오늘 결정을 내렸다.

결심이 선 첫번째날!

2010-11-21T09:18:00.000-08:00

We're finally heading towards Thanksgiving and Christmas.

All the lovely days and the difficult times..

Let's give ourselves a pat in the back.

And keep up that good spirit as long as we can.

드디어 추수감사절과 크리스마스가 다가온다.

사랑가득하고 또 힘들었던 시간들.

자신에게 잘했다고 말해주자.

그리고 그 기분 오랫동안 간직할수있기를.

2010-11-20T11:24:00.000-08:00

The drops fall onto your bare hands and feet

and soak up your clothes.

Sometimes(quite often in my case),

people carry these clouds around right above them.

They're called "depression."

But once you find a reason to let them go,

your shoulders gradually dry up.

그 물방울들이 당신의 손과 발에 떨어지고

옷은 흠뻑 젖는다.

가끔 사람들은 그렇게 구름을 머리위에 달고다닌다.

"우울"이라는 먹구름.

이 구름을 놓아줄 이유를 찾기만 한다면

당신의 젖은 어깨는 조금씩 마를것이다.

2010-10-28T01:10:00.000-07:00

Lewis structure. Chemsitry. Electronegativity.

Everything you learn can be applied to your everyday life- in some way.
But sometimes it's just hard to see it.

루이스 구조. 화학. 전기음성도.

당신이 배우는 모든것은 실제 삶에 적용될수있다.

하지만 그걸 찾아낸다는게 쉬운일은 아니다.

2010-10-23T22:19:00.000-07:00

What we feel is never guaranteed. But we believe it anyway.

And when we keep on believing it- to our surprise, it comes true.

우리가 느끼는 것들은 확실하지않다. 그래도 우리는 느낌을 믿는다.

그리고 계속 믿다보면 거짓같아 보이던 것마저 실제가 된다.

What we call magic and miracles- maybe they're not so magical, but natural.

Because we all know that things come true when we stick to them.

우리가 마법이고 기적이라 믿는것- 그건 마법같은게 아니라 자연적일지도 모른다.

뭔가를 계속 믿다보면 이루어지는것도 많다.

2010-10-22T00:10:00.000-07:00

Peace protected by guns and grenades.

There are things that people don't give up for the sake of their own protection.

Some things are necessary, others are not.

총, 수류탄으로 보호받는 평화.

이세상에는 사람들이 자신의 안전을위해 포기하지 않는것들이있다.

그중 어떤것은 필요하지만 어떤것은 필요하지않다.

2010-10-18T13:57:00.000-07:00

No offense, but I honestly thought that a lot of comedies were stupid.

I realized that I was wrong a few years ago; now my favorite genre is comedy.

They laugh over the things that can cause pain, and a lot of them do so

with good dignity. I admire the shows that unveil the common, natural flaws of indiciduals

in such a comical way that we, as the audience, no longer feel ashamed of such flaws.

They make it easier for us to face the problems that we have avoided for a long time.

나는 정말 많은 코메디쇼들이 바보같다고 생각했다.

그게 틀렸다는 걸 알게된건 몇년전이었고 이제 내가 제일 좋아하는 장르는 코메디이다.

그들은 적당한 예의와 품위를 갖추면서

아픔을 줄수있는 것들을 웃어넘긴다.

보통사람들이 가진 선천적 흠이 코메디에서 유머있게 표현되면

그것이 공개적이 되는 동시에 웃음을 선사한다. 그리고

사람들은 그 단점에 대해 더이상 부끄럽지 않게된다.

코메디는 우리가 오랫동안 피해오던 문제들을

마주보게 하는 것을 조금이나마 쉽게해준다.

2010-10-13T15:46:00.000-07:00

I don't want to know about the media gossip and the horrible stories surrounding

this man. I only know that his passion for dance and music was just too deep and beautiful

for any human being. I still drool over his moves and rhythm and wonder how much time

he could have spent just to dance like that. Of course his talent played a big part, but I still

think that he must have tried harder than any other dancer to achieve his dreams.

이사람을 둘러싼 미디어 뒷담이나 끔찍한 얘기들은 알고싶지않다.

나는 그저 춤과 음악에 대한 마이클 잭슨의 열정은

누구와 비교할수없이 깊고 아름다웠다는것만 안다.

아직도 그의 움직임과 리듬을 보면 말을잃는다.

저렇게 되기 위해 얼마나 많은 시간과 노력을 투자했을까?하고.

당연 그의 천부적 재능도 큰 몫을 했을것.

하지만 난 그가 꿈을 위해 그 어떤 댄서보다도 더 노력했을거라 믿는다.

2010-10-13T02:10:00.000-07:00

One king decides to build an eternal symbol of his love.

옛날 한 황제가 그의 사랑의 상징을 건축하기로 하였다.

What I mean is that now it's no longer about "his" own pain and love.

It's a symbol everyone can share; the effect of Taj Mahal now spreads to all those

who come to see and read the story behind this palace.

내가 상징이라 말하는 이유는

그의 건축물은 더이상 그만의 아픔과 사랑이 아니기때문이다.

그것은 우리 모두가 느낄수있는 것이되었다. 타지마할에 대해 듣고 보게되는 모든 사람들에게

자연스레 그 궁전에 담긴 얘기와 사랑이 전해지게 되면서.

2010-10-07T10:35:00.000-07:00

If you enojy the anticipation

if you love to imagine the reward in your hands-

then don't back out and give up.

뭔가를 기대하는 느낌을 즐긴다면

원하던것을 손에 넣는 상상을 즐긴다면

도망치지도 말고 포기하지도 말라.

2010-10-07T00:14:00.000-07:00

They say the male emperor penguins hold their eggs for 120 days.

They stand in the cold, starving, and just moving in a circle. for 120days.

So why do they do it?

I forget the name, but someone said:

they do it because sitting there 120days holding the egg feels better

than sitting there 120days Not holding the egg..

I think it makes sense to me.

수컷 황제펭귄들은 120일동안 알을 품고있다고한다.

120동안 그들은 추위속에서 굶으면서 함께 원모양으로 움직인다.

왜그렇게까지 하는걸까?

누군가가 말했다:

그들은 아마도 120일동안 알을 품고있는것이

120일동안 아무것도 안하는것보다 가치있다고 느끼는지도 모른다고.

왠지 이해가 간다.

2010-10-04T21:43:00.000-07:00

It's the taste of affection that makes you addicted.

You remember the taste from the past, and feel it coming in the future.

In the present, however, the taste reaches its peak.

애정의 맛이란게 당신을 중독시킨다.

당신은 과거의 맛을 기억하고 미래에 다가올 그것을 느낀다.

하지만 그 맛은 현재에서 비로소 절정에 닿는다.

2010-10-03T11:08:00.000-07:00

The way it's done, how you've tried, matters.

But the more important thing is-

whether you came to do it or not.

If you have the guts to do something-

well, nothing else can bother you much.

일이 어떤식으로 해결됬는지, 당신이 얼마나 노력했는지

모두 상관이 있다.

그렇지만 가끔씩 더 중요한것은

당신이 정말로 해냈느냐이다.

당신이 정말 어떤것을 하기위한 배짱이 있었나의 문제.

그 배짱이 있다면

다른 그 무엇도 당신을 괴롭히지 못한다.

2010-09-30T21:08:00.000-07:00

Let's warm up our hearts for a few minutes thinking about the good moments.

잠시 마음을 따뜻하게 하고 좋았던 순간들을 떠올려보자.

Can you feel that?
Mmm..
I do.

여러분도 느끼겠지.

그 감정.

2010-09-30T14:39:00.000-07:00

You may be the smallest living thing on earth

당신이 지구에서 제일 작고 보잘것없는 생물체라 하더라도

But appreciate what you have in life.

지금 가진것에 감사하자.

Appreciate who you are.
Then the world might look a little brighter, and less scary.
당신이 어떤사람이든 그 존재에 감사하자.

그런다면 세상이 좀 더 밝고 조금 덜 무서워보일지도 모른다.

2010-09-28T21:20:00.000-07:00

Books give a lot of things to me. Especially strength.

They inspire me to take a new step and keep me in a nice mood.

This strength, it makes me a better person.

2010-09-23T22:00:00.000-07:00

What do I wish for?

A safe landing after a fulfilling adventure.

Like Tom Sawyer's pure and earnest tales.

2010-09-23T16:25:00.000-07:00

Okay, I'm ready, and I have left.

Left the mess for good.
And I'm headed to the brighter side.

2010-09-22T18:25:00.000-07:00

Thirsty for something special. Something exciting and heartfelt.

Maybe tomorrow.

2010-09-22T14:40:00.000-07:00

We forget how to do the simplest things when we panic.

And panic does attack you during relationships.

We get lost and do not recognize where we're headed.

So I often wish they had signs for relationships.

2010-09-21T18:53:00.000-07:00

I'd love to know. I'd love to know why you feel so down.

But until you decide to tell me, I have to stay quiet.

Because I'm trying to learn how to care for a person

without being more bossy and impertinent than I already am.

So take your time. But tell me when you're ready.

2010-09-21T10:56:00.000-07:00

If you haven't seen the movie "It,"

go to google image and type in "movie it."

First picture that comes up: my cranky prank-mood inspiration.

2010-09-20T19:37:00.000-07:00

Don't stress yourself trying to be a perfectionist.

Today I feel like I really need a break.

So I'm taking one. And you should too.

2010-09-20T08:36:00.000-07:00

Dreams come true.

Yes. they feel so much sweeter when you have someone to share them with.

2010-09-19T20:14:00.000-07:00

For those who are afraid:

you're not alone.

2010-09-19T08:58:00.000-07:00

No need to fret.
I always wonder:
how do you stride ahead and yet be relaxed?
Living in bustling workplaces and depending on different individuals.
That's the life now.
And it's one great difficulty to be satisfied in a quiet place.
Furthermore, we feel insecure being alone.

2010-09-18T20:29:00.000-07:00

New school year. I'm glad it's here.

New apartment, new experiences waiting.

All I need to do now is unpack and diligently work my way through.

2010-09-18T16:59:00.000-07:00

I feel bad and I'm sorry. For thinking only about my own problems
and feeling too tired at the end of the day to leave you a message of comfort.
Just know that I remind myself of you every minute.
And I miss you.

2010-09-18T10:28:00.000-07:00

Newspaper-wrapped flowers and hand-sewn sweater.
-

I believe in our abilities to make the world into what we want to see.

Well, we shouldn't do anything wrong just to cover up the dirty things.

I simply appreciate the fact that we can make things more beautiful.

2010-09-17T07:26:00.000-07:00

"The Hardest Part" by coldplay tells us that letting go is the hardest part.

I agree. It just seems easy on the outside.

When you do succeed to let go, it feels.. quite nice.

2010-09-16T19:29:00.000-07:00

Simply four letters. But it's more than just that.

Cozy and excitng, so painful that it keeps you in bed- all at the same time.

Love. A combination of every emotion you can think of.

You all know how beautiful it is.

2010-09-16T15:20:00.000-07:00

I really hope it rains soon.

I love staying inside staring at the pouring rain.

2010-09-16T15:12:00.000-07:00

We get tired of it. Keeping up with the deadline and such.

2010-09-15T18:30:00.000-07:00

It's hard to control your actions especially when you feel cranky.

So you unintentionally act mean to someone who doesn't deserve it.

I have this tendency myself, and I don't know how to fix it.

The best way is probably to train yourself into having some patience.

Just think once more when you're in the mean zone.

Save your hurtful actions for someone who actually deserves it.

Don't use'm on someone good.

2010-09-15T17:06:00.000-07:00

Learn from your regrets and throw them away.

Shred them if you need to. But don't store them inside you.

2010-09-13T16:34:00.000-07:00

Stepping up- anyone can do it.

But if you haven't done it for a while, you need a little push.

2010-09-11T19:36:00.000-07:00

Affection energizes all living things.

Open-mindedly love someone in your life.

And appreciate the fact that you experienced that warm feeling deep inside.

The pain might wound you for a while, but that hurting part fades eventually.

2010-09-11T07:48:00.000-07:00

I finally think I can live with all this. Things come and go.

When you feel that there are too many things before you,

remember that it will pass in the long run.

Do whatever you're supposed to do and don't panic.

2010-09-10T07:13:00.000-07:00

We smooth out the rough edges of our lives and tell our loved ones only the

good things about us. Sometimes we lie to them to protect them.

But most of the time, it's better not to lie.

Even if you have to hurt them a little.

2010-09-09T08:12:00.000-07:00

If you can really and completely "not care" and forget about the world,

then I say you're a saint.

Because humans grow up to be too conscious of others and way too selfish,

we always have an unabsorbable amount of things to care and look about:

appearance, money, work, social life, etc.

Meanwhile, we live with self-justification in order to feel that we are

the chosen ones and that we, unlike others, believe in the right things.

We polish our achievements and display them in front of others to boast

about our greatness.

We call this world complicated, but we make this world complicated.

It's a human thing. It's not "wrong" to do these things.

Yet it gets ugly at times.

But humans are still beautiful,

for we strive to be someone who is not an egoist or any

sinful and worldly human being, but a guilty-free happy one.

2010-09-08T22:09:00.000-07:00

A cd waitin' to be played..

Just like all the forgotten plans and sunken wishes.

2010-09-08T21:11:00.000-07:00

Yes. I took some time off blogging and thought about my life.

And of course- no, life did not get any easier after all that.

But now I know how important it is to wait.

So I'm gonna do my job, do some more, and wait for things to work out.

I'll upload some diary-like drawings on theway(my way of organizing my thoughts)

Fashion illustrations might come up later. not sure tho.

2010-03-16T20:43:00.000-07:00

We feel like life is meaningless when things seem stationary, and somewhat trivial.

Stacked up dishes in the sink. Homework sitting on the desk. After some busy phone calls.

The Quiet-ness.

But we all have to live this life. Whether it's vain or not.

The funny thing is, we forget all the quietness and lonely moments

when we exprience something good, even for a few seconds.

Maybe that's why we live. Looking for that one special moment of life.

2010-03-07T15:05:00.000-08:00

[taken 2.12.09]

Some of my old photos.

[taken 6.17.09]

Used to have some kind of obsession with shoes when taking pics.

Maybe it's because shoes don't have pride or shame.

It's probably their empty expressions that make them so enchanting.

[taken 3.31.09]
My good old denim bag and comfy black boots.

Mann these photos are so old.

2010-03-06T23:15:00.000-08:00

Wow. College is totally "hectic."
I only got to draw a few drawings this new year.
Now it's official- i've been so out of bloggin life.

maybe i'll upload some of the photos i take elsewhere.
rather than JUST drawings. :]
And btw, you don't need to leave comments!
i always try to reply back, but it takes a long while.

anwayway, thanks for reading. i hope you're all having a great year so far.

2009-11-07T09:25:00.000-08:00

Another late post. It's a pic of Jessica Stam decorated with markers.

Included: earphones, straw, cellphone, window,

lollipop, Ribbon, watch, purse, mugcup.

Kinda messy with all these things put together,

but I'm thinking of making a thin book with designs and drawings.

Would you buy this kind of illustration?

I'm still brainstorming ideas.

2009-10-18T21:49:00.000-07:00

Wow. How are you all?

Can't believe I didn't do ANY blogging. Eversince college started.
I'm figuring out some new routines and ways to add into my life.
Sorry about the rough coloring up there. Not much inspiration these days.
Feels like I'm under water. Maybe it's because I make myself that way. Probably.

But anyway, that's why I drew this.
At night. Going to the airport with someone you care about.
I feel happy just drawing this in my head.

I hope you all are doing well.

2009-09-19T21:33:00.000-07:00

A short run-through of the last video post.

1. It's all about skinny jeans, low-neckline top and loose gown.

2. 3.

4. 5.

6. 7.

And a close-up of all the jeans..

2. 3.

4. 5.
6. 7.

I've been looking at them too much while editing the video,

they look all the same to me now. Which one is your fav?

2009-09-17T23:14:00.000-07:00

Sorry for the late update, and thanks for your visit. I've been working on something bigger, and this is how it turned out.

Not many people expect cold colors in the fall, but I created a fall Casual line that I'd like to wear in reality: Coldness mixed with warmth(blue and red), a bit exposed but not quite(deep-neckline top and warm gown).. All these with various denim jeans.

There are only seven outfits, since it's my first official fashion line on my blog.

The editing was my attempt to make it look like a runway, and it turned out quite fast(maybe too fast?). I'll post up the pictures separately later. Whew!

2009-09-13T20:30:00.000-07:00

I was cleaning up my closet, and found a century-old blanket.

I know that fashion is always about rolling "forward,"
but I wanted to bring this old blanket to life, so i twisted the plaid into this big skirt.

Doesn't look like forward fashion, but who knows?
Fashion is THE most unpredictable part of our lives,
and we just might be wrapping ourselves in blankets in the future.

Lastly. I want to thank Ruxandra for giving me this lovely award,

And please visit her here: http://sunsetoldstories.blogspot.com/

Her enchanting writings always-definitely beautify my day.

2009-09-09T23:51:00.000-07:00

T-shirts today.
From the left,
"What's the Rush?"
"You: Simply Mine"
"Because I Trust You."

I love drawing complicated designs,

but personally, love wearing box tshirts.

I gotta finish visiting blogs and commenting tomorrow.

But as always, my dearest bloggers- thanks for the support.

2009-09-08T20:59:00.000-07:00

I WAS planning to say some fashionable things. But today I'm out of ideas.
So back to normal life.
Making slight changes to your behavior for someone else..
CAN be exhausting, but really, not a big deal.
For me, controlling myself is the hardest.
Adjustment of bad habits, optimistic thinking, and prevention of moodswings.
Maybe that's what life's for. You gotta make yourself better. Feel better as you go on.

2009-09-05T22:33:00.000-07:00

Your comments. I can't deny it, they turn me on.

In the beginning, this drawing was out of proportion
and.. literally weird.
I tried my best to fix up the- abnormally tiny head with some big curls.

Ergo, the title: Crazy Curls.

I didn't plan on anything, so this is something like.... uh
Red, loose one-shoulder top over a black jumpsuit? And the shoes ..I have no idea.

2009-09-01T22:27:00.000-07:00

VERY very late post.
I don't do big size pics, but for this one, i drew her legs..just too long.
So here ya go. The shoes need some more effort.

Btw. I can't find the right job, in California.
Does anyone need an illustrating person?

2009-08-29T09:30:00.000-07:00

I apprectiate your Dearest comments.
They are sweet, adorable, and..
Addicting. Of course, in a good way.

And I'd like to thank Lina for the wonderful things she's written for me on her post.
Her blog has such beautiful photos- I go there for inspiration all the time.
Find her here: All My Love( http://bonjourlina.blogspot.com/ )

Let's see.. So, I think that life is a runway.

We're walking on the runway, surrounded by people.
Some sense the gaze from the front seats, while others focus on their steps.
Same runway, same people.
But each model, each one of us, brings something different out of the same surroundings.

I'm sure you bloggers are familiar with "The Thinker."(a bronze sculpture)

Believe it or not, he was the inspiration for this drawing.

Well, except that she's a female.
..And she's fully dressed.
She's more like.. "The Dreamer"

I'm currently at someone else's house..
So. Instead of Scanning the drawings,
I took a photo of them. An attempt to give some more natural light.

Theme: Travel.
I was aiming for a Tomboyish+romantic style.

And the shoe laces tied in the back.

California's weather is just so weird.

Yesterday was moody gloomy, today's just sticky sunny.

and too late to go to the beach!

Bikini top is always lots of fun to draw.

I'm always looking for heartfelt and inspiring blogs.

And it's always a pleasure to find blogs with posts,
not just about what everyone else talks about,
but about deeper, genuine feelings. That's what I find inspiring.

Hmm. Maybe I made her too pale.
Hope she doesn't scare you..

Yesterday I found out that someone:] wrote some nice things about my blog.
So this post is for her. You can find her at "omganotherone"

I asked her about her fav. style, and she kindly answered,

gladiator heels, skinny jeans and an animal print tee with a leather jacket.

Overall color kind of got dark-after a few mistakes-,

but I'll keep practicing the animal prints. pretty hard! but fun.

Some shoes. First one is the original.

I'll revisit your lovely blogs as soon as I get back.

Probably in the afternoon.
See you soon!

All you bloggers are so adorable.

Whenever I feel gloomy, I just start blogging.
And every time I see your comments, I get choked up.
And teary-eyed.

Ok.

Maybe not teary, but they always make my day.

So thank you.

I'm starting to fall in love with this whole blogging thing.

Sorry, I'm getting late on blog updates.

Black hairband, flower pattern top, and a sequin top underneath.
And a mysterious spiderweb band.

A weird pair of color jeans and shoes!
AND at last, I have no more skin-color markers. Officially, none.

In 2008, my friends and I decided to go to a dance with matching t-shirts.
So I asked them to make a list of their favorite things for the design.
I'm wearing one too, in my profile pic.
Enjoyed myself quite a lot as I drew these.

Color variations of the previous post.

This is the original,

This one, looking more like a leaopard, cheetah coat,

And All-green for the eco-friendly.
