yesterday, my friends and i were out to make a few copies of some documents. it was pretty humid and we got orange popsicles on our way back. AMD YOU WOULN'T BELIEVE THERE WERE 6 CATS SITTING ON THE EDGE OF THE STREET AT A SHOP'S DOORWAY. six cats sitting together with their glory casted all over the place. they were LITERALLY LOAVES AND I WAS THIS MUCH AWAY FROM GRABBING ONE AND CUDDLING THE SHIT OUT OF IT.

among the six loaves, one was a little scared of coming close to us. since we kept a distance so as to not scare them away, the tiny baby gazed at us from the shared distance and kept purring the whole time.

but there was this little black one. an all-black cat with eyes of colour green. and it was purring sweetly at us. when we crouched to caress them, the little black one came near us and was leaning into our touches. once i removed my hand, it kept leaning on my jeans desperate for some more caressing. it was so sweet and never once appeared cold to us. this cat is going to stay in my memory for the longest time now. ♡

the first song i listened to was IDOL. that was back in 2018. i found the graphics and illustrations of the official mv really cool. it was colourful, unique and eye catching. the rythm of the song and their choreography grabbed my attention during that time.

however, i became a part of the bora world in the post Butter era during 2021 Muster Sowoozoo. jungkook singing Still With You live during the concert was what got me more interested and made me dig out more about what the band was like. this year's festa counted up to 10years of bangtan and 2years of me being an army. i am so happy to have found them.

What was the first BTS song you heard, and was it part of the same year/era you became ARMY?

Es gibt kaum ein Wort heutzutage, mit dem mehr Missbrauch getrieben wird als mit dem Worte 'frei'. Ich traue dem Wort nicht, aus dem Grunde, weil keiner die Freiheit für alle will; jeder will sie für sich.

There is hardly a word more abused these days than the word 'free'. I don't trust the word, for the reason that nobody wants freedom for everyone; everyone wants it for themselves.

storm x calmness; both need to be embraced and cherished. a blend of both makes a human cause refining of a soul comes from the mess 💫
