English as the Signifier of Power
Yes, the fact that English is a symbol of choice, liberty, desire, but threat at the same time is very relevant to how English is perceived and used in East Asia pop culture also.
Think of the times when you think “Why did they add that English phrase into the Korean song? It doesn’t matter/make any sense/make any grammatical sense…etc”
It is the mere presence of English...

Things that hurt...
dailydoseofmex3:
Being unsure of how someone feels about you.
Feeling like they are mad at you.
Being misunderstood by people you care about.
Being judged by people you care about.
Feeling like you lost something that was never yours.
Feeling like you’re doing too much.
Thinking you aren’t doing enough.
Not knowing if you should say something.
Worried about what they’ll think if you do...

It was definitely eventful, but not particularly related to x’mas!

Sorry! I only have virtual Sims Social Christmas Trees!

Christmas Challenge Day 20: What color ornaments...
For some reason, I don’t really have a preference on colors, but I care about the shape!
I am not a big fan of human-figure ornaments… like of Santa, or an angel.
But I really like the normal circular ones or of different shapes.
I like glitter on ornaments, also matte ones are really nice too!
Look at these! :)

Due to my lack of knowledge about Elfs, I decide to go to the Elvish Name Generator to get my Elvish name. And it is…
Nápoldë Ancalimë

ps. my hobbit name is Lara Knotwise of Michel Delving…
