I really need inspiration.

I mentioned in my previous post that no one read, that I needed to find my ground with Korean again. Just that, I need inspiration, and maybe you know, and maybe you don’t, but one of my favourite dramas is Scent of a Woman ; watched it way back in 2011 during it’s original broadcast. So figured my love for the drama would make me feel like actually doing something.

I always said I wanted to watch that drama unsubbed, seems like I’ve seen it one too many times because I can actually watch most of it unsubbed ; memorized the whole thing I think. ^^

Because of this it wasn’t that useful you would think in helping me find inspiration! No, you would think so though wouldn’t you? On the contrary I felt the same way I felt (well at least I think) when I was watching it in 2011!!!

Wow. So beautiful, but I can only understand basic words, and the grammar structure –싶다 !!! I really want to watch this without English to understand the full context, say 2 years?? ^^ Fighting.

I don’t know, but I remember something like this from that time, I used to sit at my desktop (didn’t have a laptop till 2012 when I created my blog mykoreannotebook.wordpress.com) and just watch dramas when I could, I was never really that busy those days, or just didn’t work very hard haha. Either way, I miss those days, want to time-travel back to when I was just 17 – those were awesome days I swear.

So, now I feel like I’m constricted with all the books I have, I’m saying “good-bye baby books, and hello online ; and very free resources, which include dramas” – I just feel like I learn better when I’m having fun, and I hate to say this when I actually love books ; all of my books I really love them but, they are boring the crap out of me ㅠㅠ

I’m sorry, just my books and me, these days, or rather these last few days I just can’t use them, I need to find my balance first in the world, then I’ll get back to books, right now, that kind of restriction isn’t working for me. It’s killing my passion, not helping it. And I don’t want my passion to die because my resources bore me to DEATH. ㅜㅜ

To-Do List for Monday :3

  • Essays ㅋㅋ
  • Watch Korean dramas / subbed then unsubbed / be free do whatever.
  • Write some notes from the K-dramas I watch /snazzy
  • Look for some really fun resources online, free of course. I have no money to spend.
  • If money shall be spent, minimum of 5$ for maybe an eBook from ttmik or something.
  • Finish 삼총사 (The Three Musketeers) it has Yonghwa but I haven’t gone past ep. 2 ; so I’d like to finish it.
  • Chores (they must be done ya’ll ; the way of life, do housework lol)
  • Write a really cool/awesome blog post about Korean/ it can be grammar, vocab word, new drama, whatever, be free and do what I enjoy, and feel comfy with.

If any of you currently follow me on my Twitter account @seoulinme you will get a lot of spazz, I apologize not for that, but I’ll probably use twitter & tumblr an equal amount tomorrow, seeing as I probably will be a hermit and not leave my bedroom if I can help it xD

I’ll eat though, because food is, well, freaking daebak. And I’m getting old so I need to eat more often.

xoxo, Kirsten.

  1. Being a loner and a hermit is all fine and well, but you should not deny you the sweet taste of Korean food such as 부데찌게 or 닭갈비! To do so would be criminal. Learning Korean happens by filling your tummy with delicious, Korean food. At least that is what I keep telling myself to not feel guilty for stuffing myself so full I nearly burst.

    1. Hahaha aww I so agree with you, really, but there is NO Korean food anywhere here to be honest ㅠㅠ I would make the excuse of it being “learner material” of course…yummiest learning EVER!!! xD

      Thanks for the comment :3
