Were you named after anyone?

Story Time! Someone? Kind of not really.

thank you for the tag @nabiolive! 💜

When my cats clean their ears

Warm cookies right out of the oven

Lying on the couch reading on a rainy day

Finishing a hard puzzle

Starry skies

Getting feedback on a fic, especially one I'm unsure about

My writer friends

My reader friends

When someone laughs at a dumb joke I've made

Discovering a new band

When the entire dash reacts to a new insta thirst post

Oversized hoodies with thumbholes in the sleeves

Cuddles

When dogs sigh

Hot cider spiked with fireball

Once turned himself into a Jungkook fansite.

Got scared shitless when he thought that his eyebrows were gone.

Was this close to being stabbed right in the forehead by a dart pin thrown by Hoseok. Bangtan: ‘100 points!’

Asked a seaweed what its name was.

Decided to eat rice at 2 in the morning…with ketchup.

‘I think there are rabbits on the moon’

Edited a picture of bangtan with dog leashes on. They were not amused.

Had to stop his vlive because he couldn’t enter his own hotel room; the keys were left inside.

Danced to I Need U with heels on; flawlessly.

Somehow came out while holding a random child on an idol sports athletic championship.

Threatened to leak Jimin’s ‘Ryan McGinley’-like picture; aka nudes.

Won a grammy award…for math.

Had to physically stop himself to not rap along to cypher; it didn’t work.

Ran back and went to the other side of the way just to accompany Seokjin who was walking alone.

Gave a detailed update on his boys night out that ends with him being possibly drunk, sprawled on the bed, kissing and saying goodnight to a Jimin plushie. 

bonus: never forget the fact that his ears can move on its own.

You should study more and focus on your education. Even if it seems like education is not important to you now, you will soon realize that it is the most important thing in the whole world. Don’t waste your time procrastinating and focus on what is most important for you now which is school.

It is okay to break down in tears, life isn’t perfect and there will always be bumps here and there in your journey of self discovery.

It is okay if you failed that test but never give up. Keep on studying and prove to them that you can do it.

The people who you laugh and cry with won’t even be there for you after a year or two and you should learn to accept that.

Your sadness won’t last forever. There is always a solution to end that feeling.

If you ever feel lonely, don’t be afraid to reach out to a friend. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to anyone around you, why not make new friends online? Trust me in two years you’ll have more trustworthy friends on twitter than in real life.

Be fearless. Try something new that you had always been afraid of, most of the times the things that you are scared of won’t kill you so why don’t just give it a chance and try something new?

Be bold. Have an opinion? Speak about it. Tell the world what you think but before spitting out opinions, make sure to think about it first. Never be afraid to speak up on what is right, if you’re not comfortable with something say it out loud let the whole world know.

Regrets are a waste of time. Sure something bad happened and it really is your fault but please, calm down and stop beating yourself. Things happen, people make mistakes, accept what you did and learn from it. There’s no use crying over spilled milk.

Don’t procrastinate and learn something new. There’s hundreds of things in your mind that you would like to learn. Want to learn how to draw? Grab a pencil. Want to learn how to play the piano? Go on YouTube and play along. In a year you could learn so many new things.

Do not ever surround yourself with negativity. If you don’t like spending time with people who you think is a bad influence then cut the ties honey there’s no need to hang on for long. Do not ever stay friends with people who are toxical and people who you know talks shit about everyone else behind their back.

Be more empathetic. Instead of judging someone on what they did, try understanding them and put yourself in their shoes. People do things for a reason, stop judging and be more understanding.

Try as hard as you can to not lose your great friends. Most of the people you talked to won’t stay forever but try not to cut them off completely. If things do drift apart between the both of you let it be, maybe it wasn’t right for you but don’t completely neglect them. It’s always best to have lots of friends and keeping a great relationship alive.

Your parents only wants what is best for you. Out of everyone in this whole wide world your parents knows you best. Try understanding why they did this and that. It may all seem a bit blurry now but in a year or two you will realize that what they said was true. Respect their decision and always love your parents unconditionally.
