An Intro:

Thanks for finding me here!!

My name is Esther Kim. And, I'd like to call this place home. This counts as the tenth and a half place I have lived in within my 23 years of existence. While I have held a numerous amount of personal blogs (and those that don't count as blogs), I have decided that my heart is in a place to share its contents. It won't be easy. But, it is time.

Like any place of residence, let me quickly lay down ground rules.
I am trusting that by being able to publish a public&personal blog that I will be allowed to have opinions, emotions, and thought processes that are my own. I cannot guarantee that I will not offend others that read this at times, but know it is not my intention as I come from places of hurt. I plan to share personal stories here, but I don't plan on using real names, if anything, please keep them confidential as I have.

That being said, I will not tolerate any hatred or negative comments on this blog. This is not for myself, but in the protection of other individuals who may be triggered by the content others may bring. I continue to hope to grow and build safe spaces, and I think this blog should have the ability to be and feel safe for others.

One of the reasons I think it is important to launch this blog is due to the overwhelming amount of minority and underrated cultures I identify with. I am a Korean-American who is stuck between the generational gap of being Korean or American "enough". I struggle with my mental health. I am Christian and I identify as queer. I am queer (she/her) but, I still hold onto the God that knew me before the womb. I am a "super-senior" with a vision of where I see myself in 5 years, as I continue to identify as a broke college student.

This is not an easy process. But, it is one worth experiencing. My life is one worth sharing (as is everyone's). So I choose to do so.

I am no longer holding onto the chains of what others think of me, but have learned so much of myself and my God that I am confident with who I am.

This is my journey, thank you for joining.
