If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.

Youth United!!!!

At my church, we have roughly either youth groups. Maybe even more. For the high school students, we have two ministries. One of them is for mainly English speaking students and the other for mainly Korean speaking students. Of course, due to this physical division in ministries, we’ve been very close minded. There were and still are many prejudice feelings towards each other. This isn’t very healthy, especially when we’re called to love one another. So we came up with solutions. 

First, we’ve been having more joint services. This is a really good plus. It set the mood very nicely, and the chapel is on fire for good.

Second, I’m at the second solution. We’re having a Friday night activity together. Usually we do this separately but not today. We set up games and worship. Food is being made for us by our wonderful parents. (Thank you!)

I really do hope this goes well. Apparently not as many Korean speaking students will be coming. This wall needs to be broken. For good.

Bar Hetalia

So the name of the bar is Bar Hetalia. I know. Cliche. But it connects it all to the show. I’m probably going to trash the idea. Lol.

BUT, for the most part, it has the main pairings. It contains USUK, GerIta, Spamano, Rochu, and PruCan. Well, the main three pairings, and my favorite Rochu. I added in PruCan because I’ve been starting to see the appeal. Of course, let’s just see how this goes.

It’s actually super complicated. Or not. I’m not sure. It’s complicated in my head. So England is the bar tender and America is a regular. Canada and America are step-brothers. Canada knows about bar due to his brother and goes occasionally without his loud brother. Germany and Prussia are obviously brothers, and they both work as bodyguard for hire. They occasionally visit the bar when they have a day off. Italy and Romano are brothers as well. Spain is family friends with the Italians and provides for the produce for their restaurant. The Italians run a restaurant that is threatened by a rival so Spain recommends the bodyguard service because Prussia is a close friend. Arsons occur in the city, and the bar seems to be the next target. Germany and Prussia are once again hired. Prussia and Canada meet at bar. On another note, England used to be part of an escort business before becoming a bar tender. France, friend of Prussia and Spain, and China are his past clients. France provides for the wine at the bar and the wine at the Italian restaurant. China is a company worker and gets a lot of contracts. China and Russia meet on a business transaction. TOTALLY coincidentally, Russia takes China out to drink at Bar Hetalia. 

Is that complicated. I feel like everything is too tied with each other. Some of the ties are casual though. Like France and his little wine business.

Fanfics (Writing in general)

The thing I hate about fanfics is sitting down to write them. That and the fact that I can’t really share them to my friends because they can get a little NSFW. But I mean, I wouldn’t describe that in detail. But I’m writing another Hetalia fanfic and I’m pretty excited. My last one was a bit dark. This one isn’t as much. It really cute, and it has all my favorite pairings. It’s one of those stories where all the characters are interrelate. However, I’m worried that there is too much connection between them for it to be a coincidence. Nearly EVERYONE is tied back to this one bar. I might have to change a few things…

I really wanted to share this with one of my other friends who also likes the show. But she isn’t one of those listening types, you know? Unless she is intrigued, she won’t really have the patience to listen. It’s understandable, but I would like to share occasionally too. Sometimes I wonder if I’m too nice. Or if I’m a total pushover. Then again, I’m not really good at speaking. I tend to stutter on occasion or mispronounce words. 

I don’t even know. I don’t want to complain, but this is slowly sounding like a complaint. So here are some facts, I guess. I get interrupted a lot. I get shot down a lot, or at least my ideas do. I don’t have friends who I could comfortably sit down and rant to about my characters. Or the friends who do don’t know the show I’m talking about.

I guess I’m getting frustrated. I want to share with my friends, but I don’t feel like I can. Even though they are my friends. The internet doesn’t really help either since I’m not talented enough to be recognized by the World Wide Web. So I’m in an in between. Sigh.
