The end of 2NE1

Today marks a very sad day for me. Today is the official day we heard the last from the South Korean girl group, 2NE1. With the last single, Goodbye, it really struck a nerve in me. Something just tucked my heartstrings and I just cried.. It is odd for a 19 year old to suddenly just collapse into tears just because of a group suddenly disbanding. To be honest, 2NE1 marked a very special period of time in my life. The time I started to figure out who I was and somehow, even though I didn’t understand jackshit from their music, I still read the lyrics and found strength in them whenever I found myself in a difficult situation. I had found people to idolize, people to look up to and find inspiration from. And as their music grew, so did I. They went under ground for some time due to Park Boms scandal (which I wouldn’t even call a scandal in my opinion), which made me focus on several other things. But when they appeared on MAMA 2015, I was stoked. It was like seeing something you’ve been missing for such a long time and finally finding it again. I screamed my lungs out and I went nuts, this was amazing. The anticipation for another album or just something else to satisfy the long waiting.... But as with everything, all good things have to come to an end. On the 21st of January 2017, Goodbye was released, making it the last song we would ever hear from 2NE1. It came as a shock to me and I still cannot believe that I am not going to see them again as a group or if I will ever see them again. I am left in ruins and I cannot describe how mad, sad and just all around broken from all of this. Even the lyrics from Goodbye left me in ruins. “Come find me when you need someone to lean on” Trust me 2NE1, I need you guys more than ever. I am so sorry that this has to be the end, but I will always love you.

Why the danish education system is flawed

In Denmark, you get paid for attending school, whether it is College or University, when you turn 18, you have the right to get a certain amount of money from the government in order to pay for different set of things that are required to attend school. There are two types of benefits you can get from this. One being the normal amount of money you get from living with your parents and the other being the amount of money you get for actually moving out. Now, both of these sounds fair enough since it is no “small” amount that you’re given. It ranges from around 900,- DDK to 5.941,- DDK as of 2016. All of this sounds amazing at first and will most defintely get any student out of the house to get that extra benefit from the government. Well this is where it gets a bit messy. Denmark is primarily parted up in 3 region. Jylland, Fyn and Sjælland. For the sake of this argument, I am going to leave Jylland and Fyn out of the spectrum since there aren’t that many possibilities in those regions when it comes to universities and what not. So, on Sjælland, there is this city called Copenhagen, you’ve might heard of it since it is the capital of Denmark and it holds some of the more “prestigious” universities such as IT University, Copenhagen Business School, The University of Copenhagen and what not. That is all good and stuff, for now. Here comes the big problem. WHEN you move out as a student, you get the chance to get paid around 5900,- DDK for attending school. That is roughly around $1000 dollars. But you are only allowed to earn around 4000,-DDK per month (~$700) which means that the tax people takes 39% of your income, YOUR ONLY INCOME. And to make matters worse, the people who rent out apartments knows that the students do not have a lot of money on hand, so they just max out the rent on their apartments which means that it is barely possible to survive with the small amount of money you have on hand. Now, if you are like me and you think “Oh, I’ll just move a bit further away so I don’t have to pay as much in rent” WELL THAT IS WHERE YOU ARE WRONG! Since Copenhagen is located on Sjælland, the WHOLE FREAKING REGION has insane high rent, so you are either forced to move in with someone in a 1 room apartment that barely fits 1 person. The rent for an apartment that is around 40 square metres costs around freaking 6000,- DDK, or around $1100 DOLLARS.

IT IS MORE THAN THE AMOUNT OF MONEY YOU ARE ALLOWED TO EARN IN A MONTH AS A STUDENT!

But this is just the simplified version.... There are many other things such as tax, transportation to school, food, personal expenses such as cellphones, internet, monthly subscriptions and many more. As a college student, you literally do not have time for a part time job without stressing yourself out to the point of suicide. I am not even joking. The amount of stress that follows with this is not something I would wish upon my worst enemy. It all might just seem like I am bitching and moaning, but trust me, when you have school from 8am to 4pm every day and it takes one hour to get to school and then one hour back to get home, you will start to feel sleep deprived since you have to both, cook, clean, do your homework, apply for different meetings at universities, while stille keeping up with social activities that is crucial to your group work in class. Oh, and do not even get me started on how one educations have 200 more freaking school hours than the others in college. PLUS YOU CAN’T DO JACKSHIT WITH THAT EDUCATION BECAUSE NO ONE ACCEPTS THE SUBJECTS YOU STUDIED SO FUCK ME

Living my life without an audience

I guess this is somewhat also a confession.So where to start?Hello! Hi!How are you doing?

Well, my name is Christian, I used to run a Facebook page that was heavily inspired by many other “Facebook Bloggers” (Even though you can’t call them bloggers) and my page went under the name, Chrille.

So what did I do on my page? Well to start off with, I used to post a lot and I mean A LOT of pictures of myself. My style was inspired by the Korean Pop industry so you can kind of see that, that might have lead to a few people to find me attractive and therefor followed me on Facebook. Well, enough about all that. But once in a while, I would write these long posts on Facebook about how I was feeling and how I managed to get through different struggles in my daily life, and to be honest, it was quite enjoyable to see all the feedback I got. My page grew and so did I. I was no longer fascinated by the Korean Pop industry which lead my page to hit a wall. It was no longer about how my day was, it was more like a weekly rant on how I hated this and I hated that, and in the end, people started to leave, which was understandable. Anyway, I then came to terms with myself and decided to schedule a deletion date on Facebook (which mind you, takes 14 days before you can actually DELETE the page) and looked up all the old messages I’ve gotten throughout those two years I ran that page. And if there is one thing I’ve figured out, it is that no matter what, if you start to get popular, people will find a way to hate you, even if you haven’t done anything wrong. People will start to take a stance on whether or not you should be loved or hated, there is no middle. People will always criticize you for what you do and you know what? That is completely fine, but in the end, the hate goes to your head and you just want to say “FUCK IT!” and just leave. And so I did. I gave little to no explanation to why I left and that is why I am writing all this. So what is the point to all of this? Well, I am bad at using my words, but let me try. If you can live your life without an audience, then do so.

Everything doesn’t have to be about you or me for that matter, share your thoughts with those who matter and not with everyone like a cry into the void. I’ve decided to still be on social media and such, but chances are, Chrille is not coming back. I’ve outlived the whole “Look at me” kind of deal and I hope that some people can understand the decision that I’ve made and many others have made as well. Stay awesome. ~Christian

Good night, have a nice dream Frisk.

[lightlyfriedrice]

I want Seungkwan to truly know for himself that he is BEAUTIFUL. Man, if I could only protect on member of Seventeen, it is Seungkwan. I want that boy to know that he is beautiful. I want him to know that he is loved. He brings such a happy atmosphere into Seventeen, although I feel as though on the inside a piece of him is sad, what from homesickness, having to keep up the happy atmosphere for the sake of the group, etc.
