hello new year.

2010, a year of discovery and learning. it's been a great year. thank You for the blessings, people, and everything else You've placed in my life. there have been many up's and down's. many regrets and many merriments. let's make 2011 a year of pursuit and excitement.

i started a new project. 

second semester of hell

DAILY UPDATES OF MY FIRST WEEK OF SECOND SEMESTER

day one

My first day of school was overwhelming. Mondays are my busiest days. Four classes and so unevenly spaced out. Gah! But I will update more later because I need to sleep and I have to copy my notes again before I sleep so Jacklyn is making me blog tomorrow, haha. Hope everyone's first days went well! :)

---update

MATH2401 Once again, another Chinese TA. But at least I've caught up with their accents. They all eerily have the same accent and pronounce certain words in the same way. Maybe it's a Chinese thing? Nothing against Chinese people though, whatsoever.
PHYS2211 Yay! Everyone's in this class! It's my first class EVER with Jina. I never even had a class with her in high school, so it seems kind of weird? Haha. But I think this is going to be my hardest class :(
ECON2100 I love my econ professor! I could just pinch his cheeks and pat him on the head. He talks fast, has a super chill personality, and the final is optional. How cool is that?!?!
HPS1040 I haven't seen anyone I know in this class yet, which is pretty awesome because I need to meet new people, haha. Supposedly, this is the easier health class? Seems pretty easy to me so far, lots and lots of extra credit opportunities. Oh, and no final :)

Lesson of the Day: Respect yourself and others will respect you, too. 

My roommate, me, and my best friend in our first day outfits. Sorry for the bad 
picture quality! We were in a hurry to go eat, but lovin' the layered look! :)

day two

MATH2401 I have my calculus II TA from last semester as my professor this semester. I love him! He's so nice, hehe.
KOR2002 The Tech Ratio is truly reflected in this class. I am the only girl. Seriously. Even the professor is a male. Sigh.
And then I'm done! I love my Tuesdays ♥

Rant of the Day: I am honestly sick of getting ignored. I know it may seem funny to you guys, but it really upsets me.

I liked my outfit today. Abercrombie shirt, vintage denim button-up, vintage sweater cardigan, Victoria's Secret black jeans, Urban Outfitters tweed sneakers, Icing mittens, and you can't see them but I wore my vintage unicorn earrings today! Yes, I know I'm taking pictures of my outfits in the dorm bathroom. I'm a loser, haha :P

Okay, two days is enough. Next blog post! Haha, I have commitment problems.

new perspective

OH HAY~ I'm back from my snowboarding trip! It was fun and relaxing up in the Smoky Mountains spending time with family. I am soooooo sore from snowboarding but it was so worth it. I guess pain = fun, haha. And I went to the top of the mountain! My brother totally made me go up there by accident. He thought it was the intermediate ski lift, and we went up to the advanced Black Diamond run. And then he says oopsie like it's going to solve the problem. -__- But it actually wasn't that bad. Or maybe I just got a lot better at snowboarding, hehe. Nonetheless, twas a fun trip :)

1) Umma and me at Cataloochee 
2) Cousin, Me, Cousin, Tim with our boards in line for the lift 

3) View from the top of the mountain (BLACK DIAMOND!!!)

4) My cousin and me on the lift

A few of my favorite pictures that I took from the trip:

Colorful skis lined up against the fence

View from the ski lift. LOVE the shadows of the trees on the 

snow and the foggy-looking snow. Totally eerie but cool!

Sunset from inside the car window on our way back

I love grunge, colors, and shadows. These photos are posted up on my flickr, which I just made an account for. I'm going to try to take more pictures from now on. Get some film for my 350mm Minolta. Get a fisheye camera. Bring my Powershot with me everywhere. I want to start photography again. Anybody want to go on some photog outings with me in Atlanta? :)

Anyway, HAPPY 2010! Wow, 2009 just flew by. I felt like 2009 was the year I grew the most and matured as a person. There have been countless ups and downs, lots of regrets but also lots of good memories, ones that will stay with me forever. I have met tons of new people and lost contact with many. But onward we must go! I'm going into 2010 with a totally new perspective on life. My goal this year is to experience even more new things and work productively toward my future. Don't live in the now! Live in the later! Ha ha ha. I realized that I will probably be married in about ten years or so, which is a scary thing. Sigh, I'm scared to get married. But I know that before I settle down, I want to travel everywhere or live somewhere else besides Atlanta. I'm going to make it happen!

Today, I'm attending the four-day Passion 2010 conference in Atlanta! I'm very excited to see what God has in store for me. Lately, I have been thinking a lot about my Christian walk. A few weeks ago, I met up with my small group for the last time in 2009, and one of my oppa friends asked me how my walk with God is. All I could say was that I was apathetic about everything. I'm just at a standstill, and I just didn't care about God, church, or anything Christian for that matter. I must say that I was pretty disappointed in myself. And during the countdown on New Year's Eve, my stepdad asked me what one of my new year's resolution was. I wanted to say "get closer to God," "do QT's every day," or "read the Bible more," but I couldn't get myself to say any of those things. Why announce it when I can't even believe that I could actually do it? I am a coward. I know that when I say that I'm excited for what God has in store for me for the Passion conference, I'm using it as a "high." But what if it was the beginning of that perpetual high? I am hoping and praying...

birth of the inquisitive muse

Winter break is getting a bit dragged out, so I've been passing time by spending excessive amounts of time in my bed, on my laptop, all day. Quite the productive life, eh? Yet very relaxing. Anyway, I've come across a lot of cool blogs that have inspired me to start my own. Blogging is so fetch. Ha ha.

Well, for those of you that don't know me, my name is Sharon Yedam Oh. 오예닮. Born in Korea and immigrated to the United States at age three. Student at Georgia Institute of Technology. I really don't have much to say about myself. I'm guessing that as you follow my blog, you'll get to know me more ;)

So the inquisitive muse, you say? Well, for the "inquisitive" part I am quite the Curious George. I love exploring, learning (as questionable as that seems to be), and just plain thinking. I hope to share my love for knowledge with my followers. And as for the "muse" part, I don't mean those goddess things in Greek mythology. I mean musing, like daydreaming, pondering, contemplating. I hope to reflect over what I've learned and become a better person? I know that seems like the most vague goal ever. But honestly, I don't know where I'm going in life, but I know I want to make it big. Maybe, this blog is a way for me to materialize my thoughts and my dreams so I can interpret them and output them into actual actions on my road of life.

Thanks for reading!

With much love,
Sharon
