![We all know I struggle to edit and post my youtube content within a reasonable time frame 🥴
I mean, that’s one of the main reasons I’ve stopped posting long-form content as much… I just don’t have as much time to edit as I used to :( Like I’m still editing vlogs that were filmed in June and July 👉🏻👈🏻🥲
I told myself I’m not allowed to film any long-form content until those vlogs are up, but I also miss recording my memories SO MUCH that I thought I could try filming mini vlogs like these?? 📹
My friends and I went out to 홍천 (Hongcheon) last week to take pictures of the cosmos and had such a lovely time that I just wanted to record our trip in addition to taking pictures 🌸
I dunno videos just hit differently than pictures~ You can hear people laughing and joking around~ They are like little time capsules 🩵

![You know what’s funny?? Looking back, I don’t know why he felt so strongly about me not coming to Korea without a Korean name…
Natalia (나탈리아) is very easy to pronounce in Korean… the only thing is some people feel like it’s too long to they shorten it to Lia (리아)…
The only people who call me by my Korean name are teachers, my old language school classmates, and friends who looooooooove yelling “NATALIAAAAA~!! NATALIAAA~ 혜지ㅣㅣㅣㅣ!! 혜지야ㅑㅑ!! 혜지~~! NATALIA 혜지 GARZA!!” 😂😂😂
Do you have a Korean name that’s different from your actual name??

![I promised to show the realistic side of living in Korea along with the romanticized one, so here we are 🩵🇰🇷
I never like talking about hard times until the hard is over and done with. I dunno I’m one of those people that prefers to deal with things privately rather than involve others,,, I see it as burdening them with negative vibes.. I feel like a therapist would say that’s a no-no but like…. 😶
On a slightly different note, I know some of you will be confused about the whole scholarship thing.. I still don’t like talking about it because it makes me upset ha,,, but, for clarity — yes, I applied to GKS back in 2022, was awarded the scholarship, but didn’t get into KU so I declined the scholarship offer completely…
I know some will say I should have just gone to a different university given it was a FREE graduate degree. But, please understand I had my reasons~ Even if I won’t share them~ I like to think that by declining the opportunity, I gave someone on the waitlist a great opportunity to study in Korea~

![Raise your hand if you have ever been personally victimized by the Korean Immigration Office 😭🤚🏻
Y’all tell me why every other visit I make to that place goes horribly wrong and I leave wanting to cry 😭😭😭
I wouldn’t even consider this past visit a win… 6 months!?!? ReALly!??!?! (okay, technically i know why they did that, but im still upset about it… MY FEELINGS ARE VALID LEAVE ME ALONE 👹)
If you are on an employer sponsored visa, make sure your employer notifies immigration if y’all change locations or you will run into the same issue as I did when it’s visa extension time 😭😭😭

![I made the switch from extensions to lash perms over two years ago and haven’t looked back~
📍 Vivi Lounge (vivi_lounge)
🎀 Treatment: Black Ampoule Perm
💰 Price: 55,000₩
🩵 Please make sure to book an appointment via KakaoTalk or Naver as Vivi Lounge is by appt only~
What type of curl do you get?
⇢ I get an L curl.
How long does the lash perm last?
⇢ For me it lasts about a month! If you don’t tend to rub your eyes, or sleep on your face hehe, it could last longer!
Can you still wear mascara after a perm?
⇢ You can, but I don’t haha
Are there perms without the black tint?
⇢ Yes! It’s cheaper too!
Do you prefer extensions or a perm?
⇢ I prefer perms because they look better for longer. Extensions require retouches/fills frequently to look good, while perms slowly wear off.
Does your lash girl do extensions?
⇢ Yes!! She used to do my lash extensions before I decided to try out perms~!
If you make an appointment with my lash girl, tell her I said hi~ 🥹🩵

![Escape the summer heat with me at the Cell Fusion C booth pop-up in Hongdae! ☀️👒🩵
Cell Fusion C was already a popular brand, but they became even more popular this summer when their Post α Cooling Pads went viral as must-have summer soothing care~ ❄️
🩵 What makes them a must-try:
– Instant cooling effect without menthol or ethanol
– Soothes, hydrates & tightens pores
– Suitable for sensitive and dry skin types
Yes~ I really removed the makeup from my cheek and walked around the pop-up with a cooling pad on my face to test it out myself 😂 I can confirm they really do stay cool from start to finish~! My skin felt sooo nice and calm afterwards too 🥹

![Hello, 강원도~! 🩵☀️
My friends and I took a weekend trip to Gangwondo to take some pictures and just enjoy the last few days of summer~ 🌊
It’s crazy to think I typically don’t visit this province more than once a year—if even. And somehow I’ve managed to visit 강원도 3-4 times in just the past few months with the same friend group 😂 I could propose we visit a different province next time, buuuuuuuuuuut there’s still so much to see there~ 👀🩵

![I could rarely afford to see my faves back when i was a student because i was always either saving to study abroad or take a graduation trip~ (both of which ended up being to Korea haha 🇰🇷)
While i often felt like i was missing out when my friends would go to concerts and i would stay at home pretending there was no concert ☠️😭 I’m proud of my younger self for being able to prioritize what she really wanted 🩵
Those small decisions are part of what made it possible for me to move to Korea as an adult and now attend concerts all the time~ 🥹

![2 years of magic straight treatments and no regrets~ 🥹
I’ve been getting magic straight treatments done at my roots to make my hair more manageable — Yes, I love my curls!! BUT I just don’t have the energy to manage them right now, so stop judging me.. that’s right! i see you 😑
🧴 What’s a “Magic Straight Treatment/Perm”?
A Korean hair straightening treatment that uses heat + chemical smoothing to relax curls and reduce frizz. The results are PERMANENT. AKA your curls or waves WILL NOT come back in the treated area — EVER!!
If you have super curly hair like me, expect to need a root perm every 3 months in order to keep your hair looking cohesive — we don’t want strong curly at the root and then straight/wavy everywhere else ☠️ or at least i dont...
**I paid for this treatment myself, but thank you to Chahong Room and my hairdresser, Hyoseo, for allowing me to film my visit 🩵
📍 Chahong Room in Apgujeong (chahong_room)
💇🏻♀️ Hairdresser: hy0_s_
💧 Treatment: Magic Straight (뿌리매직)
💰 Price: 190,000₩ for root perm (about 3-4cm)
**exact pricing depends on the hairdresser’s level of experience

![🇰🇷 3.5 years in korea and 2 years working as a kbeauty marketer
I applied to 70+ jobs while a student in Korea and only passed the application screening for two
There are times where I say “네, 알겠습니다!” without fully understanding what I’m agreeing to. Afterwards, I have to confirm with a coworker that I did, in fact, agree to what I think I agreed to ☠️
Every day I have to pull up naver dictionary at work because I’ve encountered YET ANOTHER new word despite having studied Korean for over 9 years now
I spend waaaay too much time trying to write the perfect, polite response to 과/차장님s because I don’t want to accidentally come off as rude
I panic a little every time I think I’m going to have to 보고 something in Korean during a meeting
I am so thankful everyone on my team speaks English
I still don’t know if “익일까지” means “due by tomorrow morning” or “due by tomorrow EOD”
Despite having worked in Korea for over 2 years, I still struggle to adapt to the less appealing aspects of the work culture
