Erotic

I’ve been listening to Erotic recently and something about the song just does something to me. It feels so deep despite me not understanding the lyrics, especially the second part of the song. Something about the second part feels so intimate that I literally can’t put it into words it just makes me feel like I have angst for something.

Struggling With Belonging

I’m a freshman who’s been at NIU for a few days and I honestly am having a hard time adjusting. I’ve been trying to go to week of welcome events and meet new people but it feels like everyone knows each other already or has come from the same hs. It honestly doesn’t help that the day I settled into my dorm (Neptune) I was immensely disappointed by the overall quality ( wasn’t the same as it showed on the website) and felt a little catfished.

I guess my main question is will it get better after classes start? The overall campus feels depressing in my opinion and the only actual friend I have is my roommate. Or do you think Im looking at this school in a bad light, mainly since I came here with preconceived notions about it ( since it was a choice I had to settle with due to external circumstances)

[Revelation Of Youth]

I just finished Revelation Of Youth (including its side stories) and it was super enjoyable! It was nice seeing their relationship develop, albeit at a pretty fast pace than what I'm usually used to. I had little to no complaints but one that progressively got worse over the course of the manhwa.
The main character Kim Yohan, has some problems linked towards religious trauma due to growing up the son of a cult leader, this wasn't properly addressed in the manhwa as the trauma from his religion ultimately leaked into the dynamic between Lim Chungah ( his partner).
Heavy spoilers ahead: Kim Yohan would be quite manipulative and controlling towards Chungah, often coercing her into doing things she doesn't really want to do. Some examples of this, which comes up a lot is coercing her to kiss him more, hug him, and sometimes refusing her saying no. Near around the 100 chapter mark ( can't remember where exactly) Kim Yohan asks Lim Chungah to be his girlfriend. The problem in this stems from the aftermath in which he refers to her as his god and his whole world. The last example I have is from the side story. Both Yohan and Chungah are in college at this point: Lim Chungah goes out quite a bit and doesn't meet curfew or let him know she's going to be late, in which he tells her that she's banned from having dinner plans for a month. Overall just weird obsessive and dependent issues.
