SELF

About Me — Mounashree

I’m an introverted deep thinker just like most of you. My life is all about healing, spirituality, and looking within and beyond.

It’s the first day at a new school.

I'm standing awkwardly beside the teacher in front of a classroom full of strangers. The attempt to keep a straight face and smile like everything is alright seems like going to veins. Because nervouness isn't ready to let go. Lol

You probably know the feeling of, “Will I be able to find my people? Will I fit in?”

It’s funny because I feel the same way to introduce myself here.

In Korean, they say, “잘 부탁드립니다” — pleaseke care of me. That’s what I feel like muttering under my breath, too.

I was the quiet kid in class.

You know the ones whose faces are buried in books or lost in thought, staring out the window.

I felt excluded always. Like an outsider from before, like I don’t belong here, like a mango on a grapevine. Then I got bullied in my first and second scool, which only made me scared. That contributed to my forced love for loneliness.

Without many people around to understand me, I started journaling long before it was popular or I had internet access.
