how the entire universe conspired to help me find my first love
These are small pieces of memories that I had with Taenggu that happened in the past, some of which I probably hadn’t even shared with Taenggu personally before. Now I’m digging out these precious memory orbs stored in the shelves of the Headquarters in my brain (referring to the scenes in Inside Out) and sharing them here with you.

“蒲公英的约定 (A Dandelion’s Promise)” by Jay Chou 周杰伦 **** Original Chinese lyrics **** 小學籬芭旁的蒲公英 是記憶裡有味道的風景 午睡操場傳來蟬的聲音 多少年後也還是很好聽 將願望折紙飛機寄成信 因為我們等不到那流星 認真投決定命運的硬幣 卻不知道到底能去哪裡 一起長大的約定 那樣清晰 打過勾的我相信 說好要一起旅行 是妳如今 唯一堅持的任性 在走廊上罰站打手心 我們卻注意窗邊的蜻蜓 我去到哪裡妳都跟很緊 很多的夢在等待著進行 一起長大的約定 那樣清晰 打過勾的我相信 說好要一起旅行 是妳如今 唯一堅持的任性 一起長大的約定 那樣真心 與妳聊不完的曾經 而我已經分不清 妳是友情 還是錯過的愛情 **** English translation **** The dandelion next to the fence in primary […]

Date: 28 April 2018 It was already our last day in Seoul. Our return flight was at 11.30pm, which means there was still plenty of time to hang around in Seoul and do some last-minute shopping if we needed to. There was still one last thing I wanted to do (besides eating naengmyeon) before we […]
