Hi (:

Wow. Hard to believe its been two years since I last posted here.

Time flies. So much has been up in the air with my Korean language learning journey. I remember last time I was taking lessons. But anyways. Hi again to anyone who stops by — with some available time I’d like to start doing something here.

Again, hi, and ty for reading if anyone does. (;

Have an awesome day.

Kirsten.

Vocab, why you do this to me? WHY?

Vocab, why you do this to me? WHY?

안녕하세요 여러분!

Yeah, I forgot how much I despise vocabulary, like a lot. I knew I didn’t like the idea of forgetting a lot and having to learn the vocabulary section but I really just forget how much I hated it :(

Today I studied 85 words. That’s it. Just 85 words :(

The grammar is perfectly fine, as I am sure you can all recall if you’ve read any of my previous posts I have a love of grammar and the…

My Korean Evaluation Lesson :(

[NEW POST] My Korean Evaluation Lesson :(

안녕하세요.

Today was my evaluation lesson for Korean. Oh my god, I was nervous but looking forward to it.

So the news, I have forgotten the bulk of vocabulary I used to know, so fast track I now have a 100 word a week lesson plan. And to make sure I am 100% truly alright even though I know the information I have asked to have a foundation plan too alongside some other Intermediate content.

My reading…

Sanely Speaking!

[NEW POST] Sanely Speaking!

Hello everyone, long time.

Hope everyone has been okay, today I went out, like I left my house. It was weird, my palms got sweaty, my hands were shaking and I almost felt like throwing up.

That is TMI, I know, I am sorry, but this is how I am right now and I just wanted to state it, to move onto my post title, I have moments of sanity too. I have moments when I lift my head, and I feel like I can…

A Penny for my Thoughts.

Hello.

World of Warcraft is currently in maintenance and I was just sitting here listening to this song and thought I would log on here and fix links and sort stuff out…just do something while I wait for the game to be up again.

So how has everyone been? Hope everyone’s studies have been going well? I sadly haven’t studied anything in a long time. I dont even know what I remember etc, well, but,…

Watched a movie and thought!! 

The other day I was talking to a girl, who is 22, and she lost her mum earlier this year to a terminal illness and from the beginning she has helped me as much as she can. We are both in a lot of pain.  She also cut and she told me not to anymore even if it did help, in fact she said she knows it helps a lot but she said she knows when I go out people will stare, I don’t go out anymore honestly…

A Post of Many Bits and Pieces.

A Post of Many Bits and Pieces.

Hello all :)

How has everyone been? I hope you’ve all been well.

So this post comes about as I had yet another horrible fight with my Dad and sister.

Lets just say from the last post I made here I haven’t gotten any better, in fact you could say I have completely fallen apart. Am I proud of that? NO. Can I help it? No, either.

I am totally inactive with everything in my life right now, I…

I've Heard Grief Can Destroy a Family or Bring Them Together!

I’ve Heard Grief Can Destroy a Family or Bring Them Together!

I am sorry to post such depressing posts but I can’t talk to anyone I feel lost and alone and expressing through a post seems the only outlet.

I’ve heard mourning for a loved one can either destroy or bring a family closer, and I wish it was the latter for me but right now I seem to be the person who is destroying everyone. I am not doing it on purpose. But me turning into a walking vegetable…

Future of this tumblr blog

Hi all!!! With everything that is happening in my life now I'm not who I used to be, I doubt that fun loving kid will ever return. She's gone. The minute my mums heart stopped beating that sweet giggly girl I was left with her 😭😭 like so many people have said to me : /It will take time/ /You'll feel yourself one day/ Thanks, I appreciate all that love and it's sweet to try and give me hope but my mum was my best friend, we fought just like besties and when we made up it was like nothing had happened!! She was, is, and always will be my everything. And I will never accept or understand why this has happened to me, my dad, or my sister! I will never stop blaming myself. That will never end for me. I have cried everyday since, I don't think that will ever change but one thing has. Me. I am not who I was. And things have to change accordingly. From tomorrow ((Monday)) I will post 5 words in Japanese/Korean/ and Chinese DAILY !!! This will turn into a real study blog. On Fridays I will post one grammar in each language if I can. Probably if I can the same thing (as in for example if I posted 있다 I would post the Japanese and Chinese equivalent to that etc) I will try and have kanji focuses as well. I will be starting to study for a levels soon so when I do I will adjust the amount I do.

My Future Intentions With Life and This Blog ⏰⏰😩

My Future Intentions With Life and This Blog ⏰⏰😩

Morning.

If you’ve been following my Instagram and Twitter you’ll know that my Mom has passed away and I have not been handling it well, today marks the first week since her death. And over the last week I’ve gone through so many emotions …I’ve been sad as I still am right now then I’ve been angry and sad at the same time. Then I’ve blamed myself, saying I could have changed everything. I could…

#RandomPicture 어제밤 잠이안와서 지금 너무 피곤하도 기분이 좀 나빠. 밥 먹지 못하구. 꿈에서 엄마는 말했어요 "먹어야지. 힘들었지만 행복해야 돼요" But it's hard.... Going to Church today.

First step to being happy and being the person my mum wanted and believed I was. Will play #WorldOfWarcraft i know it is not general healthy decision making to just play games with my sister but it doesn't make me think of my mum and its the best I know how to make her happy. Seeing me smile. As this is a Language learning Instagram account dont worry just because this terrible thing has happened to me n my family doesn't mean I won't be studying. In fact my motivation is stronger now, my mum wanted me to use my languages that I learnt for "fun" so now I have to make myself successful with them, reaching new heights and ultimately reaching my goal of being a TEACHER. JUST like my mum wanted. ♥♥ btw if you have a #BattleTagID then add me we can play together mine is Kirsten94#2410 I play both Hearthstone and World of Warcraft ♥

BOOKS AND SUN ☀️📚

BOOKS AND SUN ☀️📚

Ah! It’s so refreshing to have a book you’re enjoying in hand and nice warm weather. Let’s not forget some nice peace and quiet 😜 

I forgot what it felt like to sit in absolute silence with a novel in hand and some much needed sun. Thankfully it was sunny today and I have been reading a novel (been a while with it being winter and all) ; it felt so nice to just be nice and warm without wearing…

Me: languages are so awesome I just want to bathe in complex sentence structure oh man this word derives from Latin that's so cool

Me: wtf is this shit it has how many past tenses I can't do this help me wordreference

It seems like...

These last few weeks have been odd for me. I’m thinking more about life and the person I am ; underneath but odd exterior.

WHO AM I?

I know only a handful of things about myself and lately those few things I know about myself seem to be shifting...it’s very strange but I almost feel like I need to rediscover who I am and what I want in life.

I know what I like, and that doesn’t seem like it’s shifting, on the contrary my feelings/passion for the things I love seem to be getting stronger. Causing a problem with my budget at the same time (living at home, on a self-imposed sabbatical and no job LOL) -- so my parents budget? :/

But I think I see myself knowing ME better.

Speaking of things I like doing, I have some Korean grammar to study :) then maybe search the web for new things to buy that will take me months to finish.

I really need a system though xD

Of Kings and Queens!!

I have a new fascination, with the Korean Imperial family. Well former Korean Imperial Family now, their history and everything. Basically Korean history, but in particular the royal family bit going back centuries. I am sadly far too broke to stock up on new books :( that and I have enough to read as it is. But learning more about Korean history (the royal family part) is really fun. Very…
