January 24, 2019 Veronica2 Comments

Today I registered for the 63rd TOPIK! I can’t believe I did that…

Hey guys, its veronica!

Welcome to the blog! I’m an American living in Seoul, South Korea and I write about learning Korean, travelling, lifestyle, and more. Be sure to follow me on my social media pages linked above for more cool stuff!

🎃🍿☕ My cousin Joel found out about this place online and insisted we check it out. It was pretty cool! The drinks were really unique and the decor made the whole place look like a cartoon. My cousin ordered the popcorn-topped coffee drink, I ordered the blueberry/kiwi-ade, and Jaehyung got the strawberry milk. . . . #yeonnamdong #cafe #cafeyeonnamdong223_14 #halloween #fall #falldrinks #koreancafe #seoul #seoullife #카페연남동223_14 #카페 #카페스타그램 #연남동

🌱My cousin Joel visited from the states in August and for his first taste of Korea we went to explore Gyeongbok Palace. Since it was nearly about to close when we arrived, they let us in for free! So we got to quickly walk around and see the major sites before they officially closed for the day. . . . #gyeongbokgung #gyeongbokpalace #경복궁 #seoul #family #travel #travelasia #travelkorea

🌸My 2020 Journal🌸 . I found this cute little 2020 diary at a YP Bookstore for about ₩10,000. It came with the plastic cover and a sheet of stickers and each month has cute themed illustrations that match the time of year. It originally had this bright green paper covering but thankfully it was removable and I used my favorite washi tapes to decorate the plain cardboard. . I'll be using this diary as a journal where I can write about what I did and how I feel each day. My goal will be to write something every day, and to fill up each square, even the extra large Sundays. . There are also some blank note pages in the back so I will keep track of the books I read there. . . . #2020 #2020habits #2020goals #2020diary #2020journal #stationery #diary #journal #washitape #washi #koreanstationery

🌸My first two logs in my @ttmik 100 day study journal! I haven't yet gotten into any really interesting materials but I'm keeping it light for now because I'm trying to rebuild my study habits for 2020. I very nearly didn't study today because I was feeling so exhausted, but I made a promise to myself that I would study, and I kept my promise!🌸 . . . #ttmik #talktomeinkorean #koreanlanguage #selfstudy #studygram #studykorean

I'm getting into the groove of using my bullet journal daily, and trying my best to use it to its fullest potential! #bujo #bujoinspo #bujoaddict #bulletjournal #bulletjournalist #desk #deskinspiration

🐷 I recently got back into bullet journaling and I'm having a ball~ I'm still finding my groove but I'm looking forward to sharing my journal on insta/yt soon. In the past I always used popular brand-name journals with pretty good paper that could take most of my pens and highlighters, but this new journal, while I love it a lot, has a lower paper quality and even my Zebra Mildliners were a bit too much for it. I was feeling kind of discouraged because I really wanted to enjoy planning but I neeeeed to have color so I didn't know what to do. Enter the Daiso highlighter collection! They are really cheap and come in a lot of colors similar to the Zebra Mildliners. They are only single-tipped, but I've found that they don't cause any bleed-through on this paper and I've really been enjoying using them this week. If you experience bleeding with the Zebra Mildliners you might want to give these a try as an alternative. I will always love the Mildliners but I'm happy I found some dupes that work for what I need at the moment.

One more bookshelf shot~ I filmed a korean bookshelf tour recently so please be sure to check it out! (Link in bio) . . . #korean #koreanselfstudy #koreanlanguagelearner #koreantextbook #koreanbooks #koreanbookshelf #learnkorean #learningkorean #koreangrammarinuse #koreanmadeeasy #darakwon

📚 Here are all of my Korean language books and textbooks. 28 in all, not including past books I've already finished and discarded. Quite a lot left to read and study! I recently filmed a bookshelf tour so expect to see that uploaded soon, sometime this week. If you recognize any books or have any books you're loving at the moment, let me know in a comment! . . . #study #studygram #koreanlanguagelearner #koreanstudy #koreanselfstudy #selfstudy #languages #koreanlanguage #koreantextbook #languagelearning

my new tn! 🧭📖 Two months ago I took a break from bullet journaling and decided to go completely digital. It was refreshing and I feel like I've learned a lot about what I need and what works for me. But I miss paper! And being crafty! And giving my eyes a break from screens! I had been contemplating the traveler's notebook system but it seemed pricey and hard to find here in SK. They have some products at the Gwanghwamun Hottracks but not many. I decided to take a look anyways and instead I came across a brand called istyle. They had really affordable tn-style products and also some cute coil bound planners. Finding these products felt like a sign, so I went ahead and bought a bunch of goodies to get myself started. I still have a lot to do but I'm looking forward to sharing more about this system and my personal tn set-up! #tn #travelersnotebook #travelersnotebooks #tnsetup #istyle

💐finished!💐 . I actually meant to finish KGIU Beginner last week but I was feeling run down and needed a break from everything. But I had a kind of energy boost this week and I worked every day to get to the end of this book. Now I'm ready to start another! I'm thinking I'd like to start working hard on one of my TOPIK books, and I also want to start working on KGIU Intermediate but with no pressure to rush through it this time. Happy first day of spring! . . . #kgiu #koreangrammarinuse #korean #koreanlanguage #selfstudykorean #selfstudy #studygram #studykorean #koreangrammar #koreantextbook
