THROUGH THE BROWN EYES OF A CANADIAN-KOREAN WOMAN
When I had Josh, I gained about 13kgs during my whole pregnancy term. When I had Andrea, I gained about 22kgs during my pregnancy. When I had Tyler, I gained about 19kgs. I went from weighing 51kgs to 64kgs, then down to 52kgs to 74kgs, down back to 56kgs then up to 75kgs. I remember looking in the mirror about 3 months after giving birth and just hating my body.
It’s so hard to get a good family photo with the kids. We wanted to get a nice family photo for the Christmas cards that we were going to send out. What a big fail. We wanted everyone to look nice and have a big smile in the photo. But it seems like that’s not gonna happen.
Knowing something ahead and knowing something isn’t going to be there anymore is a feeling and thought you really don’t wanna have in your mind. I know I’m not going to get this moment back again.

It’s not easy being a parent to three [totally different] kids. It’s not easy being a parent. Period. Whether you have one or three or five or ten, just being a parent to any living animal is not easy. Even having a dog is hard. I always wanted to be a good mom. I wanted to be the active, knowledgeable mom that the kids could come to at any time,

Tis the season for cappuccinos and hot warm lattes. The weather here in Korea seems to change in an instant. I think I’ve said this before and every year I feel like spring and autumn is just gone and done within a few days. It gets cold so fast. Which calls for hot cappuccinos and lattes! YAY for me cause I LOVE em! [I don’t have a fireplace to sit in
There’s always room for “improvements” when it comes to presenting your work to a client. I have NEVER given a client a design or mockup on just plain white paper. There’s a reason for that and it’s the most simple and obvious reason. HUMANS ARE VISUAL ANIMALS. We need to SEE what it looks like when it’s displayed on an actual SCREEN, BOOK or CARD to get a glimpse of
I didn’t want to see it at first. I was one of those movies that I knew I was going to cry watching. I knew it was going to make me miss my friends back home and I knew I was going to feel all lonely and sad afterwards. I also knew that I was going to want to dance and sing after watching it.
