It's Not a Cold (Mwahahaha)

If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?

I would change me, because I want to change everything but that's impossible. Unless "everything" counts as one thing?

I wonder sometimes if the world in my head is more severe than the real world. Perhaps people are not staring, judging. Perhaps if they are it's because I give them a reason to.

Indie Films

For some reason, it feels like there are a lot of indie film directors and actors/actresses here in Korea. There are tons here in Seoul, and I've heard there are more in Busan.

This could be because they are big cities, or there could just be something cinematic about South Korea. I've taken up producing short films as a hobby now that I speak both English and Korean. Lots of small time directors here are English teachers trying to make a living and make a break. From my end, it's a fun way to spend a weekend.

For bilingual people with an interest in film but no training, I recommend this hobby because you can learn a lot, have some fun, and (rarely) make a little cash.
