“We are not normal. We are not seeking to be normal.” - ASTRO, 2019
November 30, 2018.
I never thought that watching My ID is Gangnam Beauty would bring me to a whole new level of myself - a KPOP fan girl. I’m usually hooked with KDrama’s only and just one of the crowd who appreciates KPOP before but after watching Eunwoo, didn’t realize that hewould bring me to ASTRO unconsciously. I know many of us, AROHA, came from MIIGB era and on behalf of those AROHA, I want to thank Eunwoo for the experience.
To be honest, ASTRO’s really the first group I’ve stan in my life. I’m just appreciating other idol’s songs and not going deep into it but after watching ‘Baby’ and ‘Always You’, I opened myself just for them. One thing that brought me to ASTRO is not just their visuals but their own skills and talents. I’m really a fan of talented people and crossing into ASTRO is the most regretful yet memorable part of my life. It’s just that I regretted that I never known them when they debuted yet I’m thankful that I met them during my darkest times.
They became my light.
When I found out that I’m becoming more fond of them, I’ve decided to watch their VLive’s from the very start going up to the most recent video. And I’ll never forget those times when they made me smiled, laughed and cried as well. They became my breather and that was the day when I’ve finally decided to stan them.
It’s quite overwhelming because I’ve became a part of their growing family before their first win and I didn’t know how to handle it so I ended up crying with them when they had their 2nd ASTROAD concert. It’s been a tough fight for the both us but it worked out well.
They’ve grown enough to be where they are right now and I won’t stop myself from supporting them ‘till the end.

ASTROJOURNAL DECEMBER 19: When you imagine the life you desire, what habits do you see yourself engaging in? Can you set up some structures today to work towards becoming that person who habitually does those things? Habit-forming systems can be tricky - they need to be personalized to our own calibrations, to our personal vibration. Otherwise they can be too easily dismissed, won't challenge us to move ahead, or will seem nonsensical and mysterious so that we spend more time being confused by them than benefiting from them. Make sure your process is personalized, so that you can trust it to expand your potential on a deep, core level.
ASTROJOURNAL DECEMBER 18: Time to take some action! All of the stifled out outcries come to the surface in the form of a new strategic plan. Reality has set in, we have sat with it, stared into the abyss of all the ways we turn our backs and feign ignorance, and we have got woke. Now we envision ourselves in action. Now we make clear and tangible changes in who we are. Now we put our faith in our growth. Now we jump onto the scene with all ourselves, our wisdom, our skill, our insight, and put these resources towards becoming agents of change.
What are your personal strategies for finding nourishment? Not just physical nourishment, although food and water are certainly elements to be considered and reviewed today. What is your strategy for finding emotional and spiritual nourishment? Spiritual starvation, as well as spiritual toxicity, are both real. Both deserve your attention today. What are you taking into your body, mind, and soul, that feed you? What do you ingest, read, experience, that helps you see yourself at your best? That washes you in refreshing hope? And what are the things that poison you? What are you ready to set down? What only gives you pain?
Mystery, spirituality, witchiness-- it's all the human pull towards having faith. Faith in what we can't see presents a challenge to our desire to experience. The curiosity we have to discover sometimes outweighs our comfortable faith in the Unseen, unexperienced. What does it say about you, your faith? The answer to that, and other questions about your identity, how you stand apart, and fall in line, are all up for review right now, especially as they pertain to the way those things are transmitted to others. Does your faith define your core understanding of your deepest self? Do the philosophical boundaries you've set up help you to take action towards your goals of self-knowledge? And what are you doing with that self-knowledge once you attain it?
