About me

By
Hello, and welcome to my little corner of the internet!

I’m Mirrah, a 22-year-old who has always believed that words have the power to leave a lasting mark on our hearts. Whether it's a line from a book, a quote from a movie, or a passage from an article, sometimes a few words can change the way we see the world. Artefact is my space to share those quotes, ideas, and pieces of art that have left a deep impression on me.

Here, I explore words from all walks of life—whether it’s a memorable scene from a K-drama, a powerful passage from a novel, or a thought-provoking article. Every piece of writing that resonates with me becomes a doorway into a deeper conversation, and I want this space to be a reflection of that.

Why Mirrah?

Mirrah is my self-chosen name; it means "moonlight," and to me, it represents the light that certain words or ideas can shed on our understanding of ourselves and the world. Just as moonlight illuminates what is often hidden in the dark, these meaningful quotes and passages reveal truths, insights, and emotions that we may not have noticed before.

This blog is more than just about sharing quotes—it’s about starting conversations and reflecting on what they mean to me and to others. I believe that these words can connect us, whether we're from different cultures, backgrounds, or experiences.

What I Love

For a long time, I didn’t fully understand what I loved or what truly inspired me. But recently, I’ve embarked on a journey of self-discovery, learning more about myself and what truly moves me. Through this process, I’ve realized that I’m drawn to the deeper meanings in stories, art, and life itself.

One of the things I love most is music, and the band that has truly changed my life is BTS. Their music has brought me immense joy and has also guided me on my journey of self-love. Their messages of self-acceptance, resilience, and love resonate deeply with me, shaping how I see the world and myself.

I’ve also discovered the joy of crochet—a calming and creative hobby that lets me bring beautiful things to life with my own hands. It’s a source of peace for me. For someone who used to spend a lot of time at home, I’ve realized how much I value the presence of the wonderful people around me. They’ve made me want to step out, create memories, and fill my life with laughter and happiness.

Books have also become a cherished part of my life. They open doors to new worlds, letting my imagination roam freely. I find myself staring into the void sometimes, lost in thought, letting my mind wander and discover its own destination. These moments of reflection feel like an art form in themselves—a way of understanding life and my place in it.

This journey of learning about myself has opened new doors to creativity and joy. It’s a path I’m excited to continue walking, exploring my passions and discovering what else inspires me along the way.

Join Me on This Journey

Artefact is more than just a blog—it’s a space for reflection, discovery, and shared experiences. I want to invite you to explore the words and ideas that have impacted me, and I hope they inspire you in the same way. Whether you’re here to read my thoughts on a quote, share your own reflections, or simply be part of this little community, I’m so glad you’re here.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. I can’t wait to continue exploring the power of words with you.

My Journey with BTS: Finding Light Through Their Music

By

This is my first ever blog post, and of course, I’m dedicating it to BTS. The story of how I came across them is a funny one. It was August 2018, I was 16 years old, and I was voting for Harry Styles. Imagine my reaction when BTS won that poll! I got so upset (looking back, I laugh at how dramatic I was). I saw the hate comments towards them, calling them all sorts of things, and even though I was upset too, something inside me told me to be different. I chose not to hate them but instead decided to learn about them, and that decision turned out to be one of the best choices I’ve ever made. The Moment I Fell in Love From that point on, I became captivated by their personalities and their bond. I fell in love with how they support and care for each other. And like every ARMY, it started with the simple goal of “Let me just learn their names,” which, let’s be honest, turned into a full-fledged obsession. As I learned more about them, the days that once seemed endless suddenly passed in ...

When You’re Not the First Choice: Choosing to Love Yourself Anyway

"Sometimes you’re not the first choice, and sometimes you’re not even the second, but what matters most is the choice you make to love and value yourself." – Rupi Kaur There’s a quiet ache that comes with realizing you’re not someone’s first choice. It’s a feeling that creeps in uninvited, weighing on your chest when you’re overlooked, overshadowed, or forgotten. It whispers in moments of comparison, making you question your worth, your place, and sometimes even your existence in someone’s life. I know this feeling well—maybe too well. I’ve been the one to give my all, pouring out love and care with open hands, only to receive barely the bare minimum in return. I was the one they turned to when they needed support, comfort, or a favor. I was their first choice when it was convenient or when others were watching—a trophy friend they paraded in front of others. But when the curtains closed, I was just a tool, used and then set aside, like a doll that lost its novelty. Tha...

Love and Hate Can Coexist

They say love and hate are opposites, but what if they aren’t? What if they’re just two sides of the same coin, tangled together in a storm of emotions? It’s a strange feeling—to care so deeply for someone and yet feel an ache so sharp that it turns into resentment. But it happens, and it’s more common than we’d like to admit. Love and hate can coexist, not because we’re weak or indecisive, but because we’re human. There was a time when I was broken—shattered into pieces I wasn’t sure I could ever put back together. Someone I deeply cared for, someone I trusted, did something unforgivable. It wasn’t a mistake; it wasn’t something that could be brushed off as a momentary lapse in judgment. It was deliberate, intentional, and done with full knowledge of the consequences. The weight of their actions crushed me. I hated them. I hated them with every fiber of my being. But in the quiet moments, when the anger dulled into exhaustion, fragments of love would slip through. I’d remember the way...
