If you're like me, you may understand the stress and fun of being a writer. I also love K-Pop. What better way to express my writerly self that with my favorite music genre? Take a look into my emotions and thoughts as I write every day.

1. When I have an idea for a story but I lose it as soon as I open my journal.

2. When I ask myself, "When will I finish this story?"

And when someone ask me that same question.

3. When a reader finds an interesting metaphor or theory in my story that I didn't notice until now.

4. When I tell people I major in creative writing and they say, "Good luck finding a job with that degree."

And what I want to do on the inside.

(I do not condone violence.)

5. When they say they'll read my work but never mention it again.

6. When someone compliments my work.

7. When someone only says, "It was interesting."

8. When someone points out grammatical errors.

9. When someone starts to critique my work with "I like it, but..."

On the outside, I'm like:

But on the inside, I'm like:

10. When I get a new writing prompt.

11. When I finally have an idea for my story.

12. When I finish my story.

13. When I contemplate if I should submit my work or not.

14. When I submit my poems and stories to a publication company (online).

15. When I thought they would publish my work.

But then I receive a rejection letter from them.

16. When I meet people who are into writing as much as I am.

17. When I'm with my writing squad.

18. When I write a poem/story in one day.

19. When I edit that same poem/story on the next day.

20. When I start doubting myself and question my humanity while editing that same poem/story.

21. When I tell myself that no matter what, I will continue to improve myself as a writer from the critiques and compliments by others because it's what I love and do.

So whether I'm working on my poems or writing the next Odyssey article, now you know what's going through my mind.
