    Some thoughs after watching a movie I've been watching something every night. Well, unfortunately, almost all are Korean movies or TV shows. Sometimes, those are English stuffs, but british english... I don't think I need british English. Like other Korean, American English is a little bit more "familiar". People say "if you live abroad, you should speak like native speakers." But as a language learner, it is not that easy, to be more honest, it would be almost impossible. Now I think, this has become possible more and more. When I saw some people who lives Korea as a foreigner with some visa like workers or students, their languages were usually English that many Korean want to and need to speak well since they were really young, maybe since they encountered some situation scored by English as study. Actually, at first I really really wondered why they came to Korea. And I regarded they would just enjoy trip or something in Korea. But some of them were experiencing stressful situations like me now. As times goes by, I just think it would be possible if I do the same things without any effort to improve English. If so, I could see my future with low life quality. I also thought, if I just throw away some thoughts as Korean like I should be motivative all the time or do my best and gain a lot as a result/reward, and just live with nature in this beautiful and fertile land, it would be not that bad. Because I've changed many goals of my life since I got educations more. Even if I choose that nature life, there's a lot of work that I have to do for adust to the united states. It's just within 3 minths, still. I have plenty time ahead! Cheer me up!

    Learning English or.. I've been trying to teach English myself. I don't know when it started not to want to study the way many people does. But now I sometimes think I might have to review my old textbook for grammar and vocabulary. Even thiugh it's been for a while since I moved to the States, I still feel like I am in my country which is really far away. I miss the foods and my people honestly. I cooked dduckppokki last night. Actually it would be pretty much easier if I were in Korea now. The food is the most famous for short time to be ready. But it took about 40 minutes and it was so sweet and not spicy. Every food should be spicy! Maybe what I miss is comfort feeling to the country. I am here but I could not speak enough as much as I want. And even worse, I am not sure how to behave in the standard here in the U.S. I am properly polite but only in my culture. I missed the time when I should say "excuse me", "sorry", "thank you", and "please". In Seoul, the capital of Korea, many just omit some words to unknown person. And there are some situation when you should say like that. Or its situation like say somthing to strangers is just awkward. Sometimes it is better pretend not to see that when someone does mistakes. For not to make him/her feel embarrassed. Different culture, manners, and language are my challenge now. I saw many people who improved their foreign languges by watching TV shows which shows culture as well. But I'm not interested in them yet. But I will start to see them. I also like some American/Britsh TV shows but they are using too difficult English to study or memorize their scripts. But I would not give up. Let's start today!

    미국 스타일 한국어

    요즘 나는 한국말을 더 배우고 있다. 솔직히 1달쯤 동안 열심히 공부를 못 했다. 나는 한국 친구랑 그냥 한국어로 말하는 것을 연습했다. 왜냐하면 나는 한국어 말하기가 가장 제일 어려운 것 같다.
    난 요즘 한국어 학습에 열을 올리고 있다. 솔직히 말하면 지난 한 달 정도는 한국어 공부에 소홀했던 것 같아. 그렇지만 한국인 친구와 대화 하면서 아주 약간 연습을 하긴 했다고 생각한다. 다른 것 보다도 나는 아직 말하기가 좀 부족한 것 같다. 
    1달 동안 매일 연습한 다음에 요즘 한국말을 더 쉽게 나온다. 물론 실수가 아직 많고 가끔씩 나는 한국어로 잘 말할 수 있지만 부자연스럽게 (미국 스타일으로) 말한다. 그렇지만 나는 더 편하게 이야기 할 수 있어서 괜찮은 것 같다.
    매일 연습을 해서 그런 지 예전보다는 쉽게 말할 수 있지만 여전히 실수투성이다. 어색하고 자연스럽지 않게, 미국 스타일로 말하는 것처럼 보인다. 그래도 실력이 는 것은 부정할 수 없는 사실이다 
    지금 내 문제는 한국 단어를 더 외워야 된다. 내가 얼마나 배운지 여전히 많은 것을 잘 모르겠다. 그래서 지금부터 매일 새로운 단어를 배울 것이다.

    일단 부족한 어휘부터 집중적으로 학습을 해야 겠다.  그렇기 때문에 앞으로는 새로운 단어
