Do you want to know me?

 If you want to know about me, let me tell you a bit about my current hobbies.

But, before getting to know me better, let me introduce myself first: 

My name is Kellyn Carrasco, I am currently 21 years old, and I am studying Chemistry and Pharmacy at the University. 

I am not someone with many hobbies or ones that are too interesting, but finally, I do have a few, and here I am going to tell you a bit about them. Maybe you and I share some in common 😊

Yoga

Do yoga is one of my favorite activities. I really enjoy stretching and exercising without having to exert too much effort. These practices completely relax me and make me want to continue with my general activities. When I do yoga, my mind clears completely, which helps me eliminate stress and feel better about myself.

When I do this I feel so good with me, I feel destressed after yoga, sometimes I felt so good when I finish my routine that I'm even cried, because It was so peaceful, although I don't do it every day, when I do, my routine is 30 to 45 minutes, and I do at evening, when I'm alone in my house. 

I will give you four benefits you will have If you do yoga:

1. Improves flexibility.
2. Strengthens the body.
3. Reduces stress.
4. Improves mental well-being.
   

If you want to do an exercise what makes you feel better with yourself, I recommend you do yoga, this is going to improve your life, and it makes you feel so comfortable, improve your patience and flexibility.

This is something you can do whether you are young or old, and it helps you in the same way. The yoga helps us with breathing and anxiety, helps you stay calm, and also benefits your muscles and improve your sleep quality.

Zumba

Do Zumba is another way I relax. Moving and engaging in this activity makes me sweat and release many things I might be carrying, because it's at least 30 minutes of not thinking about anything else but enjoying the music and ensuring each step is done as best as possible. 

Zumba is a fun and energizing workout that combines high-energy movements with Latin and international rhythms, turning exercise into a party. In a typical one-hour Zumba session,we can burn between 500 and 1000 calories, making it an excellent option for weight loss or maintenance. Zumba strengthens the heart and improves circulation, reducing the risk of heart disease. The dance movements involve the whole body, toning and strengthening muscles, especially in the legs, glutes, arms, and core. The positive energy and music release endorphins, reducing stress and boosting your mood. Zumba classes are designed for all fitness levels, allowing everyone to follow the moves and enjoy, adjusting the intensity to their own pace. It also improves flexibility and coordination, benefiting other physical activities and daily life. 

Releasing serotonin makes me feel happy and relaxed after do this exercise.

If you want do Zumba after reading this, I recommend this channel on YouTube. If you try Zumba, I promise, you will feel great about yourself:

BTS 

This is not just my hobbie, I think this is my life, Bangtang Sonyeondan is a kpop group from South Korea, they are 7 people in the band, and I admire all of them, the integrants are Kim Namjoon, Kim Taehyung, Kim Seokjin, Park Jimin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, and Jeon Jungkook. I follow this group from 2018.

They have inspired me a lot with their songs, helping me greatly with my self-esteem and bringing happiness through each of their videos. They started from nothing and have become one of the most globally recognized bands. Their songs focus on self-improvement and loving ourselves regardless of society's judgments. They also created a song in honor of students who tragically passed away in a boat accident on a trip to Jeju Island. Moreover, they addressed the pandemic and the struggles people faced during months of lock down. Their music spans various genres including pop, hip-hop, and rap.

Kim Namjoon

Earlier, I mentioned my admiration for each of them, and it's true. However, one member with whom I connect particularly well is Kim Namjoon, the band's leader. I find him truly admirable a highly intelligent individual who writes most of their songs. He chooses his words carefully, knowing how to uplift listeners through his lyrics. Namjoon has always been an outstanding leader, demonstrating responsibility and charisma. It's for these reasons and more that I hold him in high regard. Additionally, they each have solo albums where they express their individual ideas and continue to support their fans.

I will recommend one song of Namjoon's album named                                                                                     Seoul

Dramas

Another activity I really enjoy doing is watching Korean dramas (doramas). It's something very satisfying and relaxing for me. I love watching the love stories and dramas, similar to the Turkish soap operas our moms watch. I usually do this during vacations because I like to finish watching a drama in a few days, and I can't do that when I'm studying. 

My favorite drama is, "Twenty-Five, Twenty-One" tells a love story between Na Hee Do and Baek Yi Jin.

Na Hee Do is a member of his high school's fencing team. Due to South Korea's financial crisis, the high school's fencing team dissolves. Overcoming all obstacles, he becomes a member of the national fencing team with a saber.

The South Korean financial crisis also leads to the bankruptcy of Baek Yi Jin's father's business. This brings a life change for Baek Yi Jin, from living the life of a wealthy person to that of a poor person. While studying, she works part-time jobs like delivering newspapers. Later, she becomes a sports reporter for a television network.

When you see a Kdrama, you cand find love stories, a lot of drama and fun, you can cry and laugh at the same time.

If you want a dramatic soup opera, you can see:

Essentially, those are my hobbies, and things that I do in my free time. I hope one of them catches your interest and you give it a try sometime.
