Hello, my name’s Wannie Olazabal, but I’d like to be addressed as Wannie and go by she/her pronouns. I’ve been in New York all my life and have always found this place to be my home. I am now a sophomore in my 3rd semester a Baruch and majoring in Accounting. I enjoy listening to K-Pop and I’ve been into it since around my freshman year of high school. Sometimes when walking on campus and I recognize certain things like BT21 keychains, I get a little burst of excitement. I also enjoy listening to other kinds of music as well and bubble tea; mango green tea with tapioca pearls is pretty nice.
I had to give the prompt some thought and even now I can’t think exactly what I wish to talk about, but one I can discuss would be Alan Walker’s ”The Spectre”. My dad and I both enjoy Alan Walker’s music a lot, and for my quinceañera he set up a slideshow of my childhood photos to recent photos at the time with that song playing. I felt touched and sometimes when I replay that song I briefly think back to the slideshow. It’s a little something, but it’s something that stuck with the song whenever I listen to it.
Who are you favorite K-pop groups. My sister got me into K-pop recently and I’ve been enjoying it.
Hi Wannie,
Just like you I also enjoy listening to K-pop. I not sure if you know of Alexa. Her songs are amazing, and I think you should give it a listen, my favorite one is ‘Wonderland’. You talked a lot about music, and honestly couldn’t blame you, since that listening to music have taken up a lot of my free time.

Hi Wannie! I also enjoy listening to Kpop despite not being into it as much as I used to since I got into it during my last months of 6th grade. Lol it’s been a really long time. My forever favorite group is Red Velvet. I think yours might be BTS but I’m not sure. Your quinceañera story is very touching and I loved reading it about it.
Hey Wannie!
I myself have never listened to much kpop but after seeing your passion for it, I may as well take a listen for myself to see if I enjoy it! I’m really glad you had a memorable quince and that you have a song to look fondly too. I look forward to a successful semester for us both!
Hello Wannie,
I think that choosing that song for your quinceañera is so cute. This is also my 3rd semester in Baruch and im also majoring in accounting.
