It has been 7 months since I have even logged into this account. I wonder if anyone still reads this blog. I know that I have abandoned this blog but I just wanted to pop in and say that I have not given up language learning and I have also not given up on Korean. […]
Hello again language friends. As always, it’s been a while. I have just been feeling really negative about learning Korean lately. I mentioned in another post that living in rural Korea completely turns me off to actually learning Korean. My little town is unmotivating in every sense of the word, and the stuff I do […]
When I first moved to Korea, I thought Korean was Korean. No matter where in Korea I was, the Koreans would be speaking Korean and it would all sound the same. I have no idea why I thought that. After all, does everyone sound the same in America when they speak? Of course, English in […]
Wow…2018 is basically over. A part of me wants to say that it flew by, but in my opinion, it really didn’t. I finished up a graduate degree, I worked, I made some scary decisions, and now I am living and teaching in South Korea. I wish I could say I am proud and happy […]
It’s been a bit of a while since my last post and things have been hard but I am making some language gains, however small they might be. Living here in rural Korea has been a huge struggle for me and I am still not really acclimated to my new environment. One of the most […]
Hello friends! I’m back again to talk about music. In my very first Playlist post, I mentioned that it has been hard for me to get into Kpop. Well, with the exception of Got7, that still stands pretty true lol. But! I am happy to report that I have found a few others that appeal […]
In my Korean Writing Practice post, I mentioned that I am currently studying from a different book and have taken a break from Talk To Me In Korean level 2. The book I am currently using is Korean Made Easy for Beginners. I am quite liking it. Within the first two chapters I felt like […]
안냥하세요! 저는 셀리나입니다. 반갑습니다. 미극 사람이에요. 저는 보성고등학교에 영어선냉님이에요. 한국어를 배우예요. 이름이 뭐예요? 어느 나라 사람이에요? 아녕히 가세요. Translation: Hello! I am Celina. Nice to meet you. I am American. I am an English teacher at Boseong High School. I am learning Korean. What is your name? Which country are you from? Goodbye. It’s […]
Hello friends! I have no idea if anyone still reads this blog but I am alive, lol. This past month and a half has been the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. I never thought I would be one to experience picking up my life and moving to a different country, but […]
Ok, so wow! I’ve gotta stop starting my blog posts stating how long it has been since my last update, but I swear I have a reason, lol First things first, the whole 5 weeks to fluency challenge was a complete fail. I studied the first two days for a total of two and a […]
