Lily Hong

About Me

My name is Lily Hong and i’m in the graduating class of 2016. I used to have long hair but I decided to cut it off since I couldn’t make my hair fully black again. At that time, I thought it was the best thing to do but I’m kind of regretting it now. It’s cold not having something to cover your neck from the wind.

I really enjoy interacting with animals but they seem to dislike me for some reason. They either try to avoid me or bite me until I leave them alone.

My favorite thing to do when I’m bored is to watch K-dramas or to listen to Kpop. It doesn’t really benefit me a lot to do this, but at least I’m learning some Korean. It’s not that bad to learn about another culture outside of the one I’m from also. It helps to build me as a person and make me more accepting of everything.

Hobbies

I like listening to music and eating.

With music in particular I enjoy listening to songs by BTS and B.A.P. whenever I have free time I like pulling out my earbuds and listening to their music. I find it so relaxing and calming hearing their voices.I also enjoy eating a lot.

I’m constantly either munching on something or eating some kind of dessert since I really like chewing on something. It helps me to stay awake and concentrate on what I’m doing.

Goals and Aspirations

      I hope to graduate college in four years and earn enough money to support myself. This way I can live life to however I see fit, as I’m using my own money. That way I won’t feel guilty for getting something without doing any work.                                                    
      Another thing is that, I want to graduate in four years so that I can relax instead of having to go to school everyday. I want to experience being able to make choices about my lifestyle by myself. Although this may sound weird, I feel that BTS really inspires me. Using their songs they help to spread messages about the world in their eyes. It makes me  realize that I can do more than I actually think I can do and that I should try to solve things on my own. It also pushes me forward knowing that if I try I can succeed and that even if today is a bad day there’s still another day to come.
