is kris really that bad at languages?

eh, he's okay. speaks chinese like a ABC sometimes. definitely speaks english like diasporic chinese. i think that's common among polyglots- jack of all trades, master of none.

http://ask.fm/cocoonedsoul/answer/129593285773 tbh thats exactly how i imagined your hair to be haha u cute but would you be daring enough for say... a pixie cut??

*ㅁ* the last time i had a pixie cut i was 12 after a mean kid cut my hair and i had to get it trimmed. BUT NOW IM TEMPTED. but also? i spent one year to grow like three inches of hair!!

maybe you should consider cutting your hair short! like just below your chin maybe? i think you'd look really nice with short hair uwu

i actually did cut my hair short but just spent the past year growing it out. i only cut my hair once during the past year so you can see how slow my hair grew ㅠㅈㅠ

Tell us a secret about one of your fics. ie. A behind the story look? What it should've been? What got deleted?

all my non-crack fics are written based on personal experience. the latest fic too, don't need the universe (http://paper-scribbles.livejournal.com/44818.html) is based on places i've been and things i did, with a dose of fiction. i actually did take the exact poses in the photographs with my ex in hongkong tho.

How were you in high school?

bleh high school. i was known as the kpop chick but i think i was pretty lowkey? never quite fit in and mainly stuck to my own cliques. probably came off as stuck up because i simply didn't know how to talk to the others. we had nothing in common.

whats your favourite part of your body?

my nose? i like my nose even if it's not the TALL STRAIGHT IM A WHITE PERSON aesthetic east/south east asians seem to gun for

Drabble of Kai watching dating alone

jongin chews on his blanket anxiously as chanyeol fidgets in his seat on screen, confession on the tip of his tongue.
"i-" chanyeol begins, looking as nervous as jongin feels. chanyeol leans closer to the camera and jongin feels a rush to his brain so fast he gets a little dizzy.
then the door swings open and jongin quickly slams his laptop shut.
"are you watching porn?" kyungsoo asks, squinting at jongin. "because i'll leave you alone."
"yes," jongin blurts out. it's so much easier to explain than the clenching feeling in his stomach when he watches chanyeol gently brush the girl's hair away, and jongin has never been more thankful for kyungsoo's bad eyesight.
kyungsoo shrugs and tosses the box of tissues over. "knock yourself out."
"hyung, GET OUT!" jongin yelps in mortification and kyungsoo lets himself out with a smirk.
the tissues lie mockingly in front of him.
jongin hesitates. and grabs a tissue.

i've never dated before and i'm 18 :( is that weird? whats the best thing abt dating?

ofc not! i started dating way later than you did haha. mmm i don't really like dating tbh but the nicest part is probably the cuddling? i loved snuggling under blankets and listening to his heartbeat. it's nice to have a warm body next to you during winter.

jq, what is your opinion about australia? living there, people, weather, ambiance, food, animals, landscapes, culture, idk.. how was your experience there? take as much time as you need and sorry if people have asked you before, I'll scroll down haha x

i now work for the melbourne tourism board lol so i can only talk about melbourne but melbourne's famous for having 4 seasons in one day. for the most part, the weather's never too extreme so it has a nice mix of chilly and sunny days.
the people are all hipster. for women, high buns, sleek black blouse and loud shoes. men are in button downs, skinnies and leather shoes. but there is a lot of artistic expression! the goth punk culture there is huge, so i could wear anything i want, even the weirdest things, and a lot of strangers would compliment my clothes. there's art hidden in every nook and cranny, and the absolute best flea markets ever. so many handmade wonders and trendy food (gluten-free, vegan, organic, insert power word here).
melbourne doesn't have its own food identity but expect a lot of brunches (all the egg benedict you can have) and greek food! it's very compact so you could travel 15 minutes one end and hit a semi decent beaches or 20 the other and find a pretty hill.
there are no animals in the city just a lot of seagulls and possums. they will try to steal your fries. do not feed them fries. drive an hour away and you can see wild kangaroos tho! and koalas. go to the great ocean road in winter and you can even see whales migrating.
australia offers one year working holiday visas so you can explore that! but the work will be service jobs and the pay will be shitty :c none of my roommates stuck out the full year in australia. they usually found it boring after 4-5 months and travelled across asia instead. it's also pm impossible to get a permanent residence now :c
still, as far as lifestyles go, melbourne is pretty great if you wish to live like what you see on tumblr. i stayed there two years and i think i came back just at the right time, before i started getting bored of this beautiful, culturally rich city.

do you thinl studying abroad gave you an advantage in your career?

it gave me a higher starter pay but that's only because my job is directly related to the country i studied in.
honestly, with so many kids studying abroad these days it's not a significant difference. in fact, i feel like there's some negative connotations? we spent so much time away we don't understand the local industry, and there's always the stereotype that study abroad students are rich and played instead of studied. so many people choose to do a semester abroad not because the school chosen has a good program, but because !! fuck yeah ! living overseas ! gonna have so much fun !

Your take on sekai be completely honest and unbiased. What do you think of sekai and their dynamics?

mmm i think it was always more of a case of jongin liking sehun a bit more as a friend. they were close because they've been together in the same school and were trainees together but jongin probably tried a bit harder.
and then sehun's tastes starting changing, started getting a bit bolder and more daring and jongin still lives in his oversized shirts and ratty jeans. naturally, sehun sought out zitao, who shares his same taste in the flashy and gaudy and maybe jongin sometimes wonder why they don't talk anymore.
i think they're the kind of friends now that don't need to talk every day but are still tight because of shared history. except jongin still doesn't understand why sehun needs to buy that expensive car and sehun doesn't get why jongin carries around /paper bags/

what kind of drama moments? jq your life is so A+

not rly lol one time i was at a jazz bar and a friend said he would teach me how to dance (slow dance? waltz? what is that dance you learn in highschool) but i was so terrible so we kept laughing and talking. then while we were pressed together i apologised for being socially incompetent it's because i don't go out much. and he suddenly went, "to write your fics?"
i froze?? asked him what he was talking about.
and he just casually said oh yeah he read them
so at the next song i spun into another guy's arms

do you think there's a job who doesn't require me to meet a lot of people? I'm afraid of new acquitance and crowd makes me dizzy :(

finance, IT or anything tech-related? all jobs require you to meet some degree of people but it's safe to say that tech-related jobs are less exposed to strangers.
graphic designer! software developer! digital marketing! you'll be e-meeting a lot of people but if you can word a pushy email, you'll be okay, i hope.
i hope everything works out ♥

you sound like you dislike chanyeol :|

nah he's my #2, but i can like him while disagreeing with him. i don't like his backhanded comments and i've pointed this out many times. it doesn't mean i dislike him. i like many things about him - his constant attempts to cheer up the mood, his ability to take the lead, his passion for music, just not this particular side of him.

Why do you like kailu so much? What do u think of the way kailu is portrayed in our fandom (fics in general, canon kailu etc.)?

hmm, i can't say i still like them as much with how happier luhan seems now. i have a long answer on why i like them here http://ask.fm/cocoonedsoul/answer/103542567565
as for how they're portrayed in fics, i don't like how earlier (and aff) kailu fics portrayed jongin as this mean overbearing guy and luhan as weak. luhan is anything but weak. he's probably one of the guys who stood to his resolve the most in exo back then. china line are all a bit more headstrong than korean line anyway. and come on, jongin, tough? he's so TENDER.
then kailu kinda died off and the only people that stuck around in kailu ficdom were the hardcore shippers and i liked the fics generated then! i like it when writers (pinkbit?? ree was Kailu Princess) write luhan as this crazy unhinged dude and jongin as a confused pup just following luhan's lead. i don't read angst so idk about that.
