Kibun and Nunchi Cultural differences can make or break a relationship. I feel I have done my Korean friends a disservice. In American culture, maybe because it can be so quick paced it is not unusual to keep in touch daily. As I have been researching Korean culture it would seem that less is more. I am using my nunchi and backing off to make it less stressful and to preserve my friends kibun~ Is that the correct meaning?

2014년 5월 업데이트 안녕하세요, 제 한국인은 여전히 나쁩니다. 제가 충분히 연습할 수 없기 때문에 저는 좌절됩니다. 저는 한국에 갔고, 그것을 사랑했지만, 잘 말하도록 확신하지 않았습니다.

Gratitude Thanks to Italki I have found some good friends. Italki 덕분에 나는 좋은 친구를 발견했습니다. Italki sayesinde bazı iyi arkadaş bulduk. This week I will celebrate one year with them. 이번 주에 나는 그들 1 년을 축하합니다. Bu hafta onlarla bir yıl kutlayacak. Time flies when You are having fun and learning. (I am not sure how to say that in Korean or Turkish)

I am really learning Ben öğreniyorum ama benim yazım çok kötü. 내가 배우고 있어요하지만 내 맞춤법은 매우 나쁘다.

*true story* anlamı lost in translation, 의미 번역에서 길을 잃었습니다, значение было потеряно в переводе. I am finding I am lost in translation, yet again. In all of the languages I have come to like only a smile and a tear translate perfectly. feeling frustrated but determined. Tüm dillerde Ben mükemmel sadece bir gülümseme ve bir gözyaşı çevirmek gibi geldiniz. duygu sinirli ama kararlı. 모든 언어에서 나는 완벽 단지 웃음과 눈물 번역을 좋아하게되었습니다. 느낌이 좌절하지만 결정됩니다. Во всех языках я полюбил только улыбки и слезы переводить отлично. чувство разочарования, но решительно.

실례지만 미곡 에서 와슴니다 좋은 한곡어를 못해요 바빴어요 I find that now that I can read and write in Hangul. I am very unsure of my sentence structure and vocabulary. It is very frustrating to practice not knowing if what you are saying is correct or not. 하지만 좋아요 to learn something so different. I will study more so I can become a confident student.

Merhaba Herkes~ Bir ilham perisi...Türk var. Arkadaşım Ozan için ben teşekkür. Her zaman çok hasta ve nazik. biraz türkçe biliyorum but with your help I will become a good student of the Turkish Language.

The language of confusion Swimming in my head are symbols of four or five distinct and different languages. I have a successful working knowledge of all of them, but in trying to hone my skills, frustration is taking hold. The problem with being a child of the world is not the mental boundaries placed by society, but the day to day ones that make it difficult to practice. Being able to understand is only half the battle, being able to respond the other. Is it to much to ask to be able to practice, Korean or Turkish a stones throw from the Mexican border? *Heavy sigh* still I will try even if I have to converse with my shadow, as long as it does not respond, I guess I'm good. ^^

it's been a while... 안녕하세요! 제가 감을 얼마나 잤나요? well, not exactly sleep but 최근에 아팠어요. so while down, 한국 음악을 mp3 플레이어로 많이 들어요. well back to healing, I will write again. 다시봐요...
