Happy 9th anniversary

I have been blogging for 9 years. ?

It doesn’t seem that long ago…

When I first started the blog on a whim, wanting to talk about my love for Korean dramas (and hence the URL).

When I decided that I would prove everybody (and myself) wrong that I could self-study Korean, without the need to attend expensive classes or to go overseas.

When I was soooo excited that I could finally go to Korea, something that I didn’t think was possible back then.

It has been 9 long years.

This blog has recorded many milestones in the past 9 years of my life. My memories may be fuzzy, but sometimes I’ll go back and read an old entry, just to remind myself of how I felt back then.

This blog has seen me through my youth (no longer), my undergraduate days and life as an adult.

I’m acutely aware that the enthusiasm and passion I had back then has waned and mellowed down quite a bit, but I think it’s a positive sign that I’m still moving forward and progressing in my own way. 🙂

Like I always say: 나름대로, 마음대로

I actually forgot about the blog anniversary (which should be 30 May!). Happy to celebrate 9 years of blogging with a new layout! I really like how clean and fuss-free it is.

Hopefully that serves as some motivation to write more.
