Hey guys! ♥ How was your day?
I actually am going to be blogging about what happened yesterday cuz it's much more interesting than what happened today. XD lolz.
Kay, so yesterday was the district contest for band. For those who didn't know, yes I'm a band geek- I play flute!
And tbh I thought my band was going to crash and burn cuz we're over 90 kids. But, WE GOT A ONE! OMG. YASSSSSS.
I was so happy! The contest is judged by 5 dudes who are major in music and they give you a rating from 1-5. 1 being the best, 5 meaning - y'all suck and should probably not be a band anymore. BUT, WE GOT A ONE! *does cartwheel and falls on face*
I mean, I'm only this excited cuz that was my last contest. :( I'm going to quit band in high school to focus on advanced courses, French, art, and tennis so-- I'm so sad it was my last contest!
Band was a lot of fun- I met so many amazing kids through band and we're honestly one big family. But, I am glad it's ending on a high note. (no pun intended :p)
I also briefly saw a few of my friends from my previous school! My current school and previous school are obvi in the same city so we'll be attending high school together!
My friend Khoi waved so- Hey Khoi! And my mom said Tayt said hi too! whom I may or may not like.
I also have my last concert this week so hope that goes well too!
Plus, something a bit odd happened too.
There's this guy, let's call him cucumber for now. He said "Hi Natasha (English name)" during warmups. Which, NEVER happens. Since, cucumber is quite popular at school. So, when I was about to leave, I saw him walking in the opposite direction, so I waved and gave him a nice smile. And he waved back with his drumsticks. I'll let you guys decide what this means. :)

FAQ: ♥ Naeun Lee ♥
Hey guys! How's it going?
This is like my 20th blog I started so, I'm super sorry for all the constant blog changes! But, I KNOW this blog is going to stay- FOR GOOD. :)
All the blog templates I downloaded are kinda glitchy and really annoying so I just decided to customize my own on one of the templates Blogger provides.
To make it up, I'm going to answer some frequently asked questions about myself. So be prepared to learn more than you ever wanted to know about me.
LET'S START!
1.) What's your ethnicity/ background?
My dad is from the U.S and my mom is from Malaysia. My dad is half Korean (although later on my할머니 moved to Japan), half German. My mom is half Chinese- half Indian. So, I got quite the mix going on. :)
2.) Are you really 14? You look much younger.
Okay lah- you caught me. I'm actually 13 years and 11 months (bday is next month). hahaha. Srsly tho, I just put that I'm 14 cuz that was how old I was last year in Korean age. And since I'm turning 14 (in U.S age) soon I just tell people I'm 14. However, I'm already 15 in Korean age. Your Korean age is the year it currently is minus the year your born in, plus one. I know, really confusing. Sum it up I really am an '02 liner tho okay!
3.) Where are you from?
I'm from the United States. However when you meet me irl you'll find that I have a very slight Manglish (Malaysian English) accent due to the fact my mom was the one who taught me more of my English.
4.) Wah such an exotic person! How many languages do you speak?
Unfortunately I only speak English fluently. My mom didn't really want to teach me Malay or Hokkien for some reason but, I can still say a few words in Hokkien and in Malay. As for other languages, I can understand Mandarin fairly well and Korean too. But, I still speak like a baby for both matters. :P
5.) You look really familiar. Are you a kpop trainee?
Hahaha. nooooooo. Many people in Korea have the same name. ex. Me and APRIL's Lee Naeun. Is that why you're confused? I have never been a trainee in Korea.
6.) You're still a good dancer tho! Will you ever audition?
Ehh, not really. :/ I honestly don't know. I would like to since I like to rap a lot and dance. But, after extensive kpop fangirl research I found that I'm actually kinda over the weight limit a lot of companies have set out. Plus, it can cost a lot to be a trainee. But, if some miracle occurs than yeah, I'd like to audition. :)
7.) Cool! So, is Naeun your birth name?
My birthname is Natasha. I go by Asha tho at school. Naeun is a "made up Korean name".
8.) How'd you get the name tho?
Man, you don't want to start.
9.) Can you please "explain" your name? It's kinda confusing.
You don't want to start this either. Though, I guess I'll just walk you thru the multiple names/nicknames I have/had.
NATASHA: My birth name. No further explanation.
SHASHA: For some reason my 할머니 can't pronounce Natasha.
XIAXIA: My nickname in Chinese. ^^
TASHA: Took off the "Na''.
ASHA: The letters just keep coming off. I now go by this name in school.
FEIFEI: My little bro started calling me "Fifi" (idek) when I was 8, my mom now calls me by this name.
JOY: I went by this name for a short period of time. I really like Park Joy of Red Velvet and we act similarly so, I went by this name for awhile.
NANA: (nah-nah) Brought back the ''Na". This name can be both Japanese and Korean- so I still go by this name too. Some of y'all can't pronounce Naeun so I don't mind if you call me Nana.
NAEUN: (nah-uhn) Is the name I prefer. My friend SooJung gave me this name cuz my personality is like Apink's Son Naeun. We both have an immense love for meat and like to draw and dance I guess. It's like an "unofficial Korean name" for me. Plus, my 할머니 can pronounce this name!
10.) Still kinda confusing. But, cool. So, what do you blog about?
Crap mostly. But, I also like to blog about fashion/beauty and shit that goes on in my life. I also like kpop (obvi) and will probably become your bestie when it comes to Asian beauty and anything Korean. So, stay tuned!
