171117 | 🎧 : Peek-A-Boo - Red Velvet An incomplete spread that i kinda like (*´∇｀*)

[ saturday | 11.25.2017 ]

I just found out from a post in Tumblr that this book is what Taehyung was reading some couple of years ago. I find it interesting when I realize some famous person has read/is reading the book I’m reading and I can’t help but think about what goes on in their minds when reading a certain line. Like if they’re having the same thoughts or feeling the same thing as me. Anyway, I’m reviewing my vocabulary notes from the first three stories in this book. 1. 싫증이 쉬운 아이 - it’s about how the author of the story tries to figure out why s/he gets tired of doing something so easily like when s/he tries out a new hobby, s/he does it earnestly at first then eventually starts losing interest. 2. 나는 지금 열일급의 세상밖에 볼 수 없으니까 - it’s about the author saying that life as a 17 year old is difficult but older people keep saying it’s not as difficult as it seems, that it is nothing compared to how difficult it is being an adult. But the author tries to reason out that s/he has never lived the life of an adult so s/he won’t know and that as of this moment, s/he is living the world of a 17 year old experiencing the hardships of a 17 year old. 3. 작가의 말 - it’s about how the author of the story reads books including the author’s note and how reading the author’s note can make him/her change his/her mind about a book. A certain book s/he read was so-so but changes his/her mind after reading the author’s note where the author of the book humbly confessed that s/he has no talent in writing but wants to prove to him/herself that even though s/he has no talent in writing, s/he can still fulfill a dream and gain happiness.
