Hey Lovelies,

Today’s DIY is late and that has 2 reasons. I first was working so hard to get a drawing done for a contest held by Faber Castell. I send it in just minutes before the deadline.

Right after I sended my drawing, someone asked if I heard the news.. I was confused, because I didn’t checked any news for about 2 days. And then she told me Jonghyun of SHINee has left this world. I was in shock, not sure what to believe. Until I saw the official statement by SM ent. He really left this world by his own choise. He suffered from a depression and had lost the fight. Now you think why would this be a reason to update late. Well as a Kpop fan myself, and one of the first groups I loved when joining the kpop world. I couldn’t imagine that such a bright person, who was always there for others, would have suffered so much himself. As I suffered from depression myself, years ago, I know how it feels. I can’t know how he felt but I hope he found what he was looking for now, peace.
It still feels so surreal that he’s not among us anymore, and it’s affecting me more as I ever thought. Let’s just mourn and remember him as the person he was.

You did well, Kim JongHyun! You did, Rest in Peace.

Pictures for this blog will be updated tomorrow. Most of the day I wasn’t able to do stuff. I hope you understand.
