I don’t fit under neither types and as a result, I became self-conscious of the way I act, not to also mention my overweight body. I didn’t know how to be myself while conforming to the stereotypes. That’s when I discovered Kpop, or Korean Pop Culture. I immersed myself into the music, the dramas, and even the food. I found a second

I walked into the high school gym 15 minutes before it started. I was ready to kill it. I could already smell the fresh new volleyballs for the upcoming season. It was the last day of junior varsity volleyball tryouts. “Hi Amber!” exclaimed Taylor, the junior varsity coach. I waved, sat down, and got my shoes and kneepads on.

Part One Of Red Roses and Pink Lips Taeyeon sunk herself into the waiting chair as she waited for her turn to get styled. They had another photo shoot for Elle today, but somehow things moved slower this time. There were no warm touches or cute giggles distracting her from all the waiting.
