| September goals

1. Daily Self-Care Routine

Start small by adding one or two self-care habits to your daily routine, like stretching for 5 minutes in the morning or writing down three goals for the day ( like drinking more water ).

2. Be kind to yourself

Tip: Create a habit of switching your mindset and words. Try saying “I am capable of achieving my goals” or “I deserve to take care of myself.” instead of discarding your needs and feelings.

3. Add little challenges to your day

Try a 30-day personal challenge, like journaling every morning, starting a workout routine, or reading 10 pages of any book you like each day.

4. Dealing with burnout

Reserve one day of the week for self-care and doing things you enjoy. Even if you can't take the full day for yourself try to make it at least two hours for a good and relaxing shower, taking care of your skin, hair and body. Maybe you can even treat yourself to your favourite meal!

5. Productivity Hacks

Break tasks into smaller, manageable chunks, and set a timer (like the Pomodoro technique—50 minutes of work followed by a 10-minute break) to stay productive without feeling overwhelmed.

Tip: If a task takes less than two minutes to complete (like answering a quick email or tidying up your desk), do it immediately. This prevents small tasks from piling up and becoming overwhelming.

That's all!! Tell me if you'd like more tips.

Stay healthy, stay happy and be kind!

Femme Fatale Guide: Top "Glow Up" Tips & Habits To Become The Best Version of Yourself

Prioritize the Holy Trinity: Nutrition, Movement, & Sleep. Following a whole-foods, plant-based diet with vegetables and/or fruit at every meal and limiting processed foods is one of the simplest ways to improve your overall health. Drink plenty of water, have any necessary supplements (like vitamin B12, vitamin D, omega 3s, etc.), and reduce your consumption of sugary, alcoholic, or caffeine-loaded beverages. Try to incorporate at least 30 minutes of walking and/or a simple 15-20 workout into your everyday routine. Make getting a full night's rest (usually 7-9 hours for most people) a non-negotiable in your life.

Practice Radical Self-Acceptance. Fully embrace your personal values. Get comfortable with your authentic desires. Define and set goals for yourself in every area of your life.

Nourish Your Body, Mind, and Spirit Consistently. Eat a healthful diet (enough food without overstuffing yourself), sleep and move enough throughout the day, and continue learning and educating yourself on current events, your industry/career field, art, culture, history, world languages, etc. Practice mindfulness and self-care activities. Honoring your sexual needs. Giving yourself at least one rest/reset day per week.

Cultivate Sustainable (and Personally-Fulfilling) Routines. Your sleep schedule, work/school schedule, workout schedule throughout the week, social and self-care time, date nights, time for your hobbies, errands, cleaning, and relaxation. Make appointments with yourself to empower you to fulfill all your daily tasks and activities to ensure you can work and play without burning yourself out in the process.

Set Boundaries. With your friends, family, work-life/professional network, romantic and sexual partners, and yourself. Understand your emotional, physical, and energetic limitations. Communicate them clearly, compassionately, and unapologetically. Cut toxic people out of your life. Avoid codependency like the plague. Nurture your healthy and supportive interdependent relationships regularly.

Learn What You Enjoy. Ensure To Incorporate These Products, Routines, and Relationships Into Your Day. It can be a piece of dark chocolate and a favorite T.V. show, a long evening phone call with a loved one, a hot bubble bath, or any other small luxury that gives you genuine pleasure and adds some necessary joy to your day.

Check In With Yourself Regularly. Pivot When Necessary. Self-improvement, goal setting, relationship building, and cultivating unshakeable self-love/life satisfaction takes time, experimentation, trial and error, and tons of self-reflection before you get it right in any area of your life. Be honest with yourself on what's work, what's not, where to remain consistent, and what areas of your life would benefit from a change.

Masterlist

가랑비에 옷 젖는 줄 모른다.

In a drizzle, you don’t notice your clothes getting wet. The light rain just softly comes down, tickling your hair, your nose, your lips. Preoccupied by the beautiful storm that is life, you don’t realize until you look down. Then, and only then, do you finally see that your clothes are soaking wet. They’re plastered to your body, and there’s no reversing it. 

────୨ৎ──── Day 1

It’s raining. As you track the tiny drops falling before your eyes, you decide that it’s not exactly a fine mist, but also not a full on downpour. It’s in a frustrating in-between state—do you make a run for it, or will that just end up with you walking into work completely soaked? 

Utterly jacket- and umbrella-less, you restlessly tap a hand against your hips. You stare blankly at the half-filled parking lot where your car lies, waiting. 

Waiting for what, you don’t really know. A break in the rain? A call from your boss, telling you that it’s fine not to come in today? As seconds of your silent contemplation turn into minutes, you’re increasingly sure that both are equally unlikely.  

Upon that conclusion, you cross your arms and hug your torso tightly. Surely, even if you miscalculate the severity of the rain, the consequences of 30 seconds in whatever weather this is can’t be that bad. 

Then again, you’re wearing a white blouse today, and that isn’t the best combination with the rain. Would it be career suicide to go in wearing a wet, see-through top? You shudder at the implications of a HR charge. Plus, you’re wearing your favorite ruby red scarf, and you’d hate even more to get nasty rain water on it.

“Excuse me?” A voice suddenly comes from behind you.

When you turn, your eyes widen. A dark-haired, mask-clad man dressed in workout clothes stands before you. In his outstretched hand is a red umbrella.

“You can have it,” he says, shaking the handle of the umbrella.

“Oh,” you say, taken aback by this stranger’s kindness. “Thank you?”

You gratefully take the umbrella with two hands, your fingers lightly brushing against his. The warmth of his hand is fleeting, since he withdraws quickly. 

He nods once at you before shuffling to the curb, right underneath the edge of the cement awning that demarcates the safety of your apartment building from the shifty winds and rain in the parking lot. There, he tugs on the zipper of his hoodie, then dashes out into the street without so much as a second glance at you.

Processing his random kind gesture, a wave of gratitude rises within you. Does he live in this building? If you see him again, you’ll have to remember to give his umbrella back to him. 

────୨ৎ──── Day 4

It’s Friday night, which means that you have a date with cheap wine and the latest episodes of a mindless reality TV show that your friend Seokmin recommended. 

Yawning, you stretch your arms, feeling the fabric of your couch graze your fingertips. You were thinking of buying some throw pillows to make your new apartment feel cozier, but you haven’t gotten around to it. 

“Tomorrow,” you say to yourself, under the rationale that saying it out loud will lodge it into your memory. 

Ding! 

Your phone chimes with a notification, probably from the delivery app you’ve used to order the drinks. A quick glance at the pop-up, and it's confirmed. 

Smiling, you put your phone in your back pocket, and, in your fuzzy house slippers, pad over to the front of your apartment. You unlock the latch to the door and open it eagerly, ready to thank the driver. 

Only, no one is there. In fact, nothing is there. 

Frowning, you peek your head out into the hallway, just in case you can catch the deliverer on their way out. Seeing no one, you purse your lips. 

Maybe the driver just placed it in the lobby? 

Pulling your phone out, instead of just looking at the notification, you actually open the app itself. You squint at the image the driver posted of the complete delivery. The package lies in front of a familiar scene. A brown door, off-white doorbell, gold lettering detailing apartment number 317, grey carpet in the hallway—it definitely is your building, at the very least. 

Could one of your neighbors have just… stolen the two $6 bottles of wine you’d ordered? You scoff, finding the thought mildly funny. If someone did steal it, they were in for a surprise. It wasn’t cheap for no reason; to put it nicely, it’s an acquired taste, for sure.

As you zoom in and out of the image, it suddenly occurs to you that something is off. There isn’t a mat in front of the door to the apartment—the “WELCOME HOME” mat Seokmin had bought for you as a joke. 

Your head jolts to look at the plaque next to your front door. In gold, the number 319 stares back at you. 

Well, 317 definitely isn’t 319.

You raise your phone, comparing the door pictured on the delivery app to the one across the hall from you. Identical. 

You shake your head. Of course! You hadn’t considered that the delivery driver might have accidentally delivered the wine to your neighbor, rather than someone on your floor having stolen it. Really, you ought to have more faith in humanity.

Shrugging your shoulders, you walk down the hallway to 317, then raise your fists. 

You knock three times, then wait for a response. 

Nothing. 

Pursing your lips, you try the doorbell. The chime rings faintly through the wall, so it definitely works.

Is it possible that your neighbor accepted the wine, and then immediately left the apartment? Or, no way—did they actually steal your wine? Is that why they’re not responding?

Huffing, you knock again and say, “Excuse me? I’m, uh, your neighbor, 319? Did you happen to get a wine bottle, by any chance?”

Silence. 

Your hands fidget with the hem of your red oversized graphic t-shirt as you stand in the hallway, talking to a door. You shut your eyes. Just your luck. Seokmin is about to come over, and you’re all out of wine. What fun is Dating Show Night without a little buzz? 

You weakly continue, “Or, uh, two bottles, to be exact? I think the driver delivered them to your apartment instead of mine. By accident?” 

If your life was a comedy show, a cricket backtrack would start playing right now.

You sigh. Looks like 12 dollars is going down the drain. 

But just as you turn in your fuzzy slippers to trudge back to your apartment, a voice suddenly comes through the door to 317. It’s slightly muffled, but you can hear it just fine. It’s a nice voice—deep, somewhat melodic.

“You’re my neighbor?”

“Oh! Yeah,” you eagerly say, brightening at finally getting a response. You wait for the door to open, hands itching to collect your package. 

“Sorry, did you say it was wine?” 

“Oh! Yeah?” 

“I have it,” comes 317’s clipped response.

“Oh, great.” You press your lips together, waiting for a response, only to hear utter silence again.

Isn’t this about the time that your neighbor should just offer to hand it over? You’re not sure how to ask for your rightful package without sounding accusatory. It also occurs to you that your neighbor still strangely has yet to open his door. Is it really normal not to open the door when you’re speaking to someone, especially a neighbor? 

Then again, it is your first time living in this apartment. Maybe you’re not accustomed to the way people are in this building? But regardless, isn’t it generally a bit rude, or at the very least, weird? 

Or, maybe you’re thinking too much of the worst in people again. He might have a bad cold, for example! Maybe he doesn’t want to keep the door open for too long out of courtesy for your health.

After waiting for a few somewhat embarrassing seconds, you give up hoping he’ll take the hint. “Could you, uh, please give it to me?”

“Yeah, just a sec,” says your mysterious hidden neighbor.

It’s an immediate response, which makes your eyebrows shoot up in anticipation. 

Some shuffling can be heard through the door, squashing those expectations. You’re in for more waiting, it seems. Is 317 a serial killer or something, hiding evidence of crimes scattered throughout his living room? Or maybe he’s an old man, hobbling on a crutch to bring your package to you. What could possibly be taking this long? 

Tapping your foot, you lean against the doorframe of your neighbor’s apartment, until you hear the movement inside suddenly stop. 

Curious, you lean in closer to the door. 

All of a sudden, it swings open, nearly taking you inside his apartment with it!

“시—” you gasp, a curse nearly slipping your mouth, before you realize that you’re at your neighbor’s mercy right now, and that cursing isn’t exactly the best look if he’s a frail, old person.

When you regain balance, you look up from the hallway carpet to greet the wine thief, only to see a young man. 

His pale face is heavily obscured by a mess of dark hair and a black mask. You can make out hints of his eyes through his bangs, but not much else of his facial features. 

He’s wearing a black muscle tee that exposes his defined biceps, with a matching set of sweatpants, and you involuntarily swallow at the sight of him. 

Your heart skips a beat, like your subconscious recognizes him from somewhere. 

“Oh, sorry,” you blurt, cheeks heating from being caught eavesdropping on whatever he was doing inside the privacy of his own home. You draw your hands together apologetically.

317 shifts on his feet, keeping his hand partially on the door. Your face heats up as you feel his slightly shrouded gaze trace your figure. Maybe your red Tom and Jerry shirt and fuzzy slippers aren’t the best clothes to wear for your first impression with a direct neighbor. 

“Your wine?” He holds out a bag you recognize to be from your local convenience store.

You scramble to collect it from him, fingers grazing his hand lightly. He stalls slightly before letting go, which doesn’t go unnoticed by your wide eyes. 

“Thank you. Have a nice night?” Your free hand goes up in a stiff wave before you walk a few feet over to the front door of your apartment, mentally groaning at whatever disaster that social exchange was.

Your apartment beeps as you enter the code for the electronic lock, and you shuffle back inside your living room with your prize. For some reason, as you think about what it took to get the bag safely tucked in the crook of your other arm, the corners of your lips lift. 

Sure, your neighbor might be a little weird, but at least you made it out with your wine!

────୨ৎ──── Day 5

Birds are singing cheerfully by your window, calling you outside. It’s a surprisingly bright morning, considering that the past few days have been rather gloomy with the rain. 

Rolling off your bed, you get up and roll your neck, stretching the stiffness from your muscles. Your head pangs lightly, but the hangover isn’t too bad, all things considered. Glancing at the clock, you see that it’s around 10am. 

Dating Show Night is always fun, but this time around, the personalities played on screen were so obnoxious you couldn’t stop laughing, even screaming at the ridiculousness of some scenes. Honestly, what kind of person has the lack of self-awareness to say that people calm down in arguments just by staring at his handsome face? Before long, you and Seokmin had downed one and a half bottles—a record in your history of binge-watching nights. 

Shaking your head with fondness at your memories from last night, you quickly go through your morning routine, then grab a tote bag with your essentials inside. As you put on your cute red tennis shoes, you muse over the errands you’ll have to run today.

Your main goal is to furnish your apartment with decorations; it doesn’t look lived in just yet. In comparison to your old place, the cool-toned lights and lack of personalized knick-knacks lying around makes your new home look almost sterile. So, on the list are some pillows and throw blankets for your couch, and an antique lamp or two to add some warm light to your bedroom and the living room—actually, maybe some warm-toned bulbs as well to replace the cool-toned existing ones. Plus, at some point, you should also get groceries.

Content with your plan, you sling your bag over your shoulders and open the front door. Then, you see a letter-sized piece of white paper just lying on your welcome mat. 

Furrowing your brows, you bend down to pick it up, expecting an advertisement for a restaurant nearby or some other service. 

But to your surprise, the paper is a handwritten note?

To the resident of 319,

Could you please keep the noise down after 10PM? 

Best,

Your neighbor 317

You press your lips together, eyes flitting over to the door labeled 317, then back to the note. 

Were you really that loud? You press your lips together, picturing your neighbor’s mask. Sure, you and Seokmin might have gotten a little carried away, pointing and yelling at your TV, but it’s not like you were throwing a rave in your tiny living room. 

You probably could’ve accepted 317’s complaint if he had suggested a more reasonable time. Come on, 10pm? The man was hiding some serious grandpa sleeping habits behind his fear of spreading his cold to other people. 

Besides, who even writes noise complaints these days? It’s practically medieval! He could have just told you in person, considering that he lives right next door. 

“Ha,” you huff, folding the note up and dropping it into your tote bag. 

Your eyes narrow at your neighbor’s front door. This isn’t the worst thing to happen to you on a Saturday morning, but it is pretty annoying. If his proposed quiet hours started at midnight, you’d be more willing to adhere to the noise complaint, but why should you have to be quiet at 10pm? You weren’t even that loud, anyway.

Slightly annoyed at your new neighbor, you decide that if you run into him in the hallway, you’ll have to confront him about the note. 

You close the front door and march out, determined to channel your energy into finding good decor.

A few hours of thrifting later, and you’ve filled the trunk of your car to the brim with a myriad of different little decorations and bulbs. Analyzing the lack of space left, you decide that your groceries will just have to ride in the passenger seat next to you. 

You pull your stuffed car into the parking lot of your local market, your last stop before returning home. Stepping out, you make your way inside the store. 

It’s bustling when you arrive, the aisles filled with people stocking up for the week. You grab a cart and start weaving through the fresh produce section, your mind still half on the note. It’s not that you’re mad, exactly. You’re not really upset, just a bit miffed that 317 had to be so dramatic with his request. It was basically archaic!

But something about him just makes your thoughts linger on him, and you don’t even know his name. 

Humming a random tune under your breath, you stare at some cartons of strawberries and blackberries, and they stare right back at you. Adding a pack of both into your cart, you roll it over to the greens section. 

You scan the produce for sugar snap peas, but it seems that another customer clad in a dark hoodie and sweats is standing with a large cart in front of them. 

Unmoving.

You drum your hands on your hips, waiting impatiently for the person to finish deliberating. Then, he turns his face to look left, and you catch a glimpse of his black mask—a very familiar black mask.

You nearly don’t recognize him at first, but the hair gives it away. Long, black, messy waves. 

Your heart jolts. Suddenly, your previous desire to confront him has evaporated. Should you ask him about the noise complaint? Or should you carefully back away, pretending like you didn’t see him? 

Lucky for you, you don’t have the chance to run away, because he turns around with a pack of cherry tomatoes, and makes direct eye contact with you. 

“Funny seeing you here, Mr. 317,” you blurt lamely.

His eyes widen above the edge of his mask. “Hi. 319?”

You nod. “Could you, uh…” You sweep your hands to the left, requesting that he move so that you can get to your peas. 

He quickly maneuvers his cart a few feet ahead, and you grin, grabbing your produce and dropping it into your cart. 

“Thanks. I saw the note, by the way,” you say, hopefully casually. “I’m sorry about the noise.”

“Oh, uh…” 317 scratches his head, as if he hadn’t expected you to confront him about it. 

He brushes his bangs out of his face, and you can see a hint of red peeking above the mask. Then, as if he doesn’t know what to do with his hands afterward, he just shoves them into the pockets of his pants. 

“Small world?” he finally says.

The fuck? You bite back a laugh. You’d brought up the note, and he’d responded by saying it’s strange seeing you at a grocery store. Of all the things you’d expected him to say, “small world” definitely was not among them. 

Is he avoiding accountability for the dramatic note he wrote? Surely, he can’t be embarrassed at being asked about the archaic letter he hand-wrote and delivered to your front door. It’s as if he made it thinking that the two of you wouldn’t see each other again, which is incredibly naive—and, strangely, somewhat endearing? 

The corners of your lips turn downward in an upside down smile. With how flustered your neighbor appears to be, you’d feel bad ragging on him about the note, now. 

“Feel free to just knock on my door and tell me if it gets too loud next time, okay? The note was a bit much.”

He exhales sharply. “I thought it was the polite thing to do.”

You shake your head, clicking your tongue. “Oh, please, just tell me in person, I’m not that scary.”

He gives you a pointed look. “You were screaming.”

“It was so funny, though,” you pout. “Have you seen Single’s Inferno?”

“No,” he says. As an afterthought, he adds, “And I don’t plan to.”

You wrinkle your nose. “You’re missing out, 317.”

Suddenly, it occurs to you that you should ask for his name.

“What’s your name, by the way? I mean, we can’t just keep calling each other as 317 and 319, y’know.” You share your name, and wait expectantly. 

The beautiful sound of silence graces your ears again.

You groan. “What, are you a spy, or something? I can’t know your name?”

His eyes widen, and for a second, you think you’ve either offended him, or hit the nail on the head. But then he lets out a sweet, addictive laugh, the sound muffled by his mask, but still audible. “Definitely not. I’m Lee Jihoon.”

“Mm, and is this your go-to grocery shopping time?”

“I don’t usually have time during the day.”

“Ah, a busy guy,” you nod. “I get it. What do you do for work?”

Jihoon hesitates, his grip tightening on the handle of his cart. “Nothing interesting. Just some stuff.”

You raise an eyebrow. “Just some stuff, huh? Sounds super secretive, are you sure you’re not a spy?”

His eyes crinkle, head shaking, as he assures you, “Nope.”

Your eyes narrow at your mysterious neighbor. “Alright, Jihoon. Don’t tell me you’re a big celebrity, or something.”

He freezes for a split second, mouth agape and eyes shaking, before he quickly looks at the floor. “Uh… no?”
