May updates

안녕!! 오랜만이야~

Language updates:

its now been 5 months since ive started learning Korean. At the start I knew every beginner vocabulary word, every expression, even using the grammar felt pretty easy. I was so confident, studying 2+ hours a day and learning was so fun! And then slowly came the new grammar points, unknown vocab, trying to understand longer and longer pieces of texts, having to speak in Korean spontaneously and all of a sudden its like, oh yeah... I'm learning a new language lol.

So while I can definitely say my Korean has improved, I am worried that I've reached the true part of my journey where the real learning is starting. All that being said, I graduated the beginner courses and have now started the upper beginner levels! I really hope I can handle it and not burn out.

Work Updates

On the subject of burning out, I AM BURNT OUT lol.

I have been struggling in my current job and am desperately hoping that a job offer comes through. I know realistically I wont hear anything back until July or August but yeah. I am having a hard time. Ive been doing the work of 2 people for months now and it is hell. But there is nothing I can do until that job offer comes through.

Life Updates

So what does one do when they are burnt out? Vacation~!!! I am currently planning a trip with some close family friends and I hope it comes to fruition. Hopefully by July I will be enjoying myself and travelling 🥹

Finally, it might be kind of sad to admit, but I havent had a regular group of friends to hang out with since my college days. Last year I joined a social group and through that I've met some wonderful girls I've been regularly hanging out with. 

Its been so fun doing things that I normally would never do on my own! Karaoke sessions, dance parties, anime conventions and so much more. I hope that the rest of 2025 is spent with them 💕

If you have read till the end, thank you so much~~~!!!! Until next time, 다시 만나자 ✨
