🧋06.25.23 🧋
Finally got back to my favourite local café for some studying! I've had tonsillitis for the past week so I've just been comfort (/low-key hate) reading Julia Quinn books since last sunday.
Finished up some practice questions, caught up on my daily vocab in one of my books (still haven't started making the flashcards I specifically bought for this month though rip ㅠㅠ).
Today's audiobook read was Upright Women Wanted by Sarah Gailey and I had some fun with it! It was super short which I'm not complaining about and it was a really good introduction to the future western genre! A pretty solid read overall, and I'm interested in picking up more from Gailey in the future!
I also started a new physical read with Wonderworks by Angus Fletcher, and now I want to reread the Iliad lmao.

I was searching for some grammar stuff and stumbled upon this Korean textbook (e-book) designed specifically for self-studying!
It’s from EPS (the employment permit system), which has their own Korean proficiency exam for foreign workers. The EPS-TOPIK is pretty different from the regular TOPIK, but this textbook seems like a really great resource! It starts with Hangul and then covers a whole bunch of grammar patterns while also teaching cultural stuff. There’s a lot of industry-related vocabulary and phrases because it’s designed for migrant workers in Korea, but even if those sections aren’t personally relevant, the grammar is still useful!
(I also think a lot of people don’t realize/forget that the majority of foreigners who live in Korea aren’t teaching English or working white collar office jobs; they are working in industrial factories and agriculture, often in shitty conditions. This textbook gives a glimpse into the hiring process and the kinds of situations migrant workers need to prepare for.)
Also it’s free!

Living in Korea sometimes feels like being stuck in time because all my friends back home are moving on with their lives, and I'm just here doing the white girl abroad thing teaching English and ignoring all my problems.

One of my favorite things about Korean culture is how they just take their shoes off anywhere
Like, sitting at a restaurant? The bus terminal? The 7/11? The middle of Enlgish class? The shoes come off. And sometimes the socks, too. I love that ♡
