As I promised, I'm posting Maki's one now... At first, I thought Nicholas's DM was already enough to make me lose my mind, but Maki... AND FOR ME, THIS ONE IS EVEN FREAKIER THAN NICHOLAS'S. Or NO, wait, I think they're both freaky in completely different ways. Nicholas's DMs are freaking adorable and are basically a direct attack on my poor heart, while Maki's... I HAVE NO WORDS. THIS IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT KIND OF DAMAGE. 😭 Like, let me tell you something... WHO THE FUCK is flexing his biceps, triceps and whatever else I'm supposed to be looking at, while making a fucking HEART SHAPE with his arm and hand, all while casually brushing his teeth with a PINK TOOTHBRUSH 😭 Can someone explain what exactly is going on in his head when he decides that THIS is the type of video he should send us? AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TOO... LIKE, HE SENT IT AT 1:30 AM JST. HELLO... DOES THIS MAN HAVE NO MERCY. Don't even ask me about the colour of his shirt because I clearly wasn't paying attention to anything other than what was happening right in front of my eyes. 👀 I swear, my brain just stopped processing any other information. And with this lovely little finishing touch, Maki has officially WON the bias-wrecker battle against me. Congratulations, young man, YOU DID IT. You successfully made me question my entire bias situation, and honestly, I don't know whether I should congratulate you or ask you to leave me alone. HAHAHA. I THINK THAT'S QUITE ENOUGH FROM YOU NOW... I mean it, Maki. LEAVE me and my POOR heart ALONE. 😭😭 I am seriously DOOMED. I have fallen into the rabbit hole, and I genuinely have no idea where the exit is anymore. But the thing is... I don't think I even WANT to find it. I'm quite comfortable down here, actually. Hihi.

I know this is a community where we usually share our love for music, our favourite artists, and all the little things that make us happy. But today, I would like to share something a little different. I hope you don't mind me sharing something more personal and serious today. I simply felt that I needed to put my thoughts into words. Yesterday, a tragedy struck Poland, and above all, the city of Crakow. Right in the very heart of the city, in a place where thousands of people go for walks, admire the sunrises and sunsets, meet for coffee, talk, laugh, and simply enjoy their lives, a shooting took place. A fucking psychopath was driving around in a car, shooting at random, innocent people with a machine gun. Six people lost their lives, and fifteen others were seriously injured and are now fighting for their lives. Among them were two young police officers, both around my age, who bravely fought against this man until the very end. Although, honestly, I can hardly bring myself to call someone like that a human being anymore. It is difficult to comprehend how someone can do something so horrific. How can someone wake up one morning, get into a car, and decide that other people's lives mean absolutely nothing? How can someone take away another person's future, dreams, and plans while destroying the lives of so many others in the process? People were going about their everyday lives, walking through the city, meeting friends, visiting places they love, when their lives were suddenly changed forever. Among those who were injured were also tourists who had come to visit MY country, explore its beautiful cities, admire its history and architecture, and create memories they would take back home with them. They came to Poland expecting to experience something beautiful, never imagining that their trip could turn into a nightmare. Imagine travelling to another country, excited to discover a new place, walking through its streets, taking pictures, enjoying the atmosphere, and never even considering that it could be the last time you get to experience something like that. That a holiday you had probably been looking forward to for months could suddenly turn into a life-changing tragedy. This horrific act has also deeply affected me personally because it happened in a city where, not long ago, I used to live and study, a place that holds so many personal memories for me. Although I no longer live in there.. I lived not far from the very place where yesterday's tragedy began. I remember walking through the Old Town almost every day with my friends, spending time together, enjoying the atmosphere, and making memories that I will always cherish. I remember the streets, the cafés, the evenings, and the simple moments that made that year so special. I also have friends there, which makes everything feel even closer to home. Knowing that any one of them could have been caught up in something like this is absolutely terrifying. What makes it even more difficult to process is that at the beginning of this week, I was talking to my mum about having to go to Crakow to collect my university diplomas. We were actually supposed to go there around this time. In the end, we both agreed to postpone our trip until next week. And now, when I think about it, I cannot stop wondering what could have happened. I don't know whether I would have been in that exact place or at that exact time, but the mere thought that I was planning to be there just days ago makes me feel sick. I cannot even begin to imagine what the people who were walking around the Old Town yesterday must have felt. People who were completely unaware of what was about to happen. Tourists admiring the beautiful architecture, families spending time together, people sitting in cafés, and children running after pigeons in the main square. Children who should have been worrying about catching another pigeon, not about whether they would have to run for their lives because someone had decided to start shooting at innocent people. I keep thinking about the people who never made it home yesterday. About their families, who might have spoken to them just hours earlier, without having the slightest idea that it could have been their last conversation. About the injured people who will have to deal not only with their physical wounds but also with trauma that may stay with them for the rest of their lives. And about the police officers who risked their own lives to stop this psychopath. I don't want to live in a world where people are afraid to go for a walk. Where parents are scared to take their children to the city centre. Where a place associated with happiness, life, and beautiful memories suddenly becomes the scene of a tragedy. Today is a day of national mourning. It is a time for us to come together, to remember those who lost their lives, and to stand with everyone affected by this tragedy. Even though words can never undo what happened, I hope that the people of Crakow know that they are not alone in their grief. Please, hold your loved ones a little closer and take care of yourselves. Tell them you love them. We never know how quickly an ordinary day can change.
