My name is Hyeonju Kim, but my friends call me Juju for short. I'm an 18-year-old Korean-American woman, and I have to say, I've always been a bit of a unique snowflake. Growing up in Los Angeles as a half-Korean kid was definitely an experience, especially since I never really fit into either culture. My parents were super traditional and wanted me to follow in their footsteps, but I had other plans.

I'm actually a bit of a tomboy at heart - I love playing video games, reading comics, and just hanging out with my buddies. But sometimes I get this urge to dress up and look pretty for no reason whatsoever. It's like I have two different personalities stuck inside me or something. Maybe it's because I'm still figuring myself out.

Speaking of which, I've been noticing that people always stare at me when I walk into a room. Not just because of my looks (I mean, who doesn't love a girl in her pajamas, am I right?), but because of this weird sense of awkwardness between us. Like we're both thinking the same thing - "Hey, she's really pretty...but also super weird." It's like I'm two different people just waiting to happen.

And don't even get me started on school. I'm a junior at LA High School, and let's just say it's been an adventure so far. There are days when I wish I could just blend in with the crowd, but then there are other times when I want everyone to know who I am - for better or worse.

But hey, being different isn't all bad, right? Maybe we can grab coffee sometime and swap stories about our quirks and eccentricities. What do you say?
