turning twenty in twenty-twenty two.

birth-day / ˈ bərTH ˌ dā/ noun the anniversary of the day on which a person was born, is typically as an occasion for celebration and the giving of gifts. I don’t remember why the sudden gloominess always occurred whenever it was my birthday but from what I have always remembered the relationship I had with my birthday(s) are always rocky. Maybe it’s because I used to compare the way I celebrate my birthday with my friends in school and most of the time I would be disappointed on the day. My friends used to have all of these celebrations during their birthdays where they invited their amazing friends (Sometimes I was included and sometimes I wasn't) with their amazing star guests and little Epi was sad because of the contrasts.

There have been a lot of things on my mind that I don't think will make any sense but here I am writing about them anyway. Do you remember the student exchange program that I was talking about in my previous post? Well, the truth is, my Compulsory Study Abroad has been occupying me with a lot of things needed to be done. I am going to South Korea in less than two weeks and I have no idea what am I doing right now. I mean, I am choosing my courses to attend later on in my university after all of the hecticness on my visa application, insurance, bank statement, etc, I am filled with lots of emotions right now. I have always wanted to study ...
