Wang Lee Hom - Kiss Goodbye
ps: this one is not a korean song, but i can't help fall in love with the lyric and song is so beautiful ^^
Hangul's Today : Hang Up
umm... just wondering... all this time i've always ended my phone call to oppa with the word "hang up" coz i always want him to hang up first. so i wonder how to say that in korean.. and... today i watched k-drama "the world within/the world that they live in" and got the word ^^ .. i didn't check it yet and ask oppa yet but i guess i'll just put it here since it's only a single word.
끊으 = [kkunh u] which means "hang up"
ah, and other than that word, i also got some other new words : gidae, mul bba, sae ki(haha i won't tell what it means ^^;;;)

Korean Attitudes : Embarassing to speak english in public?
I noticed this with some of my Korean-friends, attitudes suddenly changed and phone call wasn't as fun and free as usual hehe.. when i asked why, they admit that they felt so embarassing to speak english in public.. once i called my friend when she was in a public space so she couldn't say anything. She said It would be fine if she could just speak Korean to me, but oh well... I won't understand that ^^; So for her, she just didn't want people to look at her coz that's kind of embarrassing.
And my friend said almost same thing :
Anyway...I do have some other Korean friends who won't feel shy to speak english in public but.. i think in general, for Korean people, in a public space it's really unusual to hear english speaking Korean unless you are so confident with your english, if your english is real good as much as people would envy you, then you can speak it loud ^^ so nowadays when i call my friend but she is in some places where speaking english is kind of embarrassing, then she will just give me a sign by saying "unnie~ mi an"
So complicated -_-;;;
And my friend said almost same thing :
well, when we were talking, there are lots of people around me looking at me like "wow, look at him. he's talking in english on the phone." so realized that strange atmosphere, i couldn't concentrate on what your saying. shooot. it was really really bothering me. they didn't even know me. but they were starring at me and got me shy. ^^;

okay.. no excuses to not write here.. it's not that i've lost interest with Korea but...never!! T.T but i really had lotta things happened while i was away... bad things.. good things...won't tell in details anyway ^^; but to make it short, i travelled around with my Korean penpal (girlfriend) and she was so nice and changed my mind about something ( if you read back my post about Typical Korean) or.. okay i maybe just meet the rare one hehe since she's westernized and living in the US. bad thing is my dad passed away.. so sad and i don't want to write about him further more.. so that's it... a flash from me after loooooooooooong time away... Cheer Up~

Dealing With a Possessive Boyfriend
Dealing with a possessive man in your life proves to be rather difficult as you have to undergo lots of mental torture and a loss of freedom in your life. This type of man tends to question your behavior, your whereabouts and even who and why you talk to people. Sometimes this possessiveness and jealousy tends to translate and manifest itself into abusive behavior.
The possessive behavior in the man is not related to the love he has for you. It however stems from insecurity and low sense of self esteem in the man. In addition to this, it can also be the sign of future greater psychological disorders like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and narcissistic personality disorder.
Possessive men have the capacity of turning black and white situations into a situation to their advantage. You can find out if your boyfriend is possessive by examining your relationship. If you find that you are stifled and afraid to do things without his ‘permission’, then it implies that he is a possessive man.
The best thing that you have to do to deal with such possessive men would be not to fall prey to all his manipulations. He may try to make you guilty by saying that the reason he asks so much about whereabouts and contacts is that he has no other friends and you are the love of his life. These are all manipulations on the part of the possessive man to stop you meeting other people and spending all your time with him.
However you should instead walk your own way and explain to him that you need your breathing space, and so does he. Make him understand that it is not healthy to spend all your time only with each other and not meeting other friends or family. Make him understand that though friends and family are important to you, he will always remain the most important person in your life.
After trying all this, and you find that your boyfriend is still the possessive person you had found out him to be, the only solution left with you is to break up your relationship with each other. This is an option that will prove to be rather difficult for you to do as you would be deeply and emotionally attached to him.
In fact, by breaking the relationship, you may also find it difficult to break the unbreakable and really scary bond that you both share with each other. While you break the relationship, you will make him realize that you don’t like this over possessive nature that he exhibits, and that you need some breathing space of your own.
Though you may miss the possessive nature of your boyfriend once you break up with him, there is no other alternative you can take if after repeated explanations, your boyfriend is still over possessive over you. This is the only step you can take to avoid any physical abuse and schizophrenic behavior you may have to put up with if you continue this relationship.
