I dream up worlds and people that don't exist and then write books that explore them.

NOTICE: Hello all, it's been a while. I don't have any plans to be active here atm, but I want you to know that I'm no longer doing Korean-related stuff.

Thank you to everyone who joined me on this journey and for making it a great one.

And again, thank you SO MUCH for your amazing love and support for Lingolobbi!

@_studybunny_ Excuse me?

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

Okay but why do we always get so extra in our native language when someone needs to translate it????

"exuberant fervour......."

MOTIVATION TIP

Remind yourself of where you were a year ago

It is easy to feel demotivated when learning a language because progression doesn’t come overnight

Remind yourself of what level you were at last year

You've come a long way, baby

[Patrick Creighton @laidbacklang]

SPEAKING TIP

Speak to yourself on a daily basis

Of course it is preferable to chat to a person

but you don't NEED someone to talk to

@_studybunny_ Hehehehehehe

I need to repay my absence 😂

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

Heyo peeps! It’s been a minute but I’m hopping back in shyly-ish to say that: IM BACK. I didn’t die. I’m alive. And I’m better than ever (although my sleeping schedule has left the chat and is on the verge of quitting its job) and...

I’m doing ANOTHER KOREAN CHALLENGE! (박수!)

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

@Languette07 Thank you ☺️

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

Something I’ve noticed today: A LOT of self-studyers are perfectionists (I know I am 🤧).

Which means they struggle with the “all or nothing” mindset.

Remember, you can’t go from zero Korean knowledge to fluency in a snap.

@Sayuri39332589 Hey, we all fall sometimes! It’s normal. You just gotta remind yourself that it’s human and getting back into it despite a few hiccups is better than giving up because you missed one day. 💕

You have to move away from “all or nothing” and remind yourself that effort, time, dedication, self-discipline, and persistence are all part of studying Korean.

And when you fall off your game, it’s not the end. Get back up and keep going forward.

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

You’re gonna miss study sessions, you’re gonna have crappy lessons where you understand NOTHING, and you’re gonna struggle to remember things.

It’s normal. It’s part of the process.

The sooner you get used to it and understand that it’s normal, the quicker you’ll improve.

@sindarinstudy We’ve all made that mistake 😂😂😂

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

It’s another challenge that is similar to my 20 to 2020 challenge, HOWEVER, it’s 21 days this time 😂

It’s a 3 week challenge that’ll take you from Hangul to speaking very very basic Korean!

If you’re interested, check out this post and send me a DM!

So basically, I’ve been MIA and I feel kind of bad...so I wanted to do something fun as like a...returning gift?

Also, I really wanna offer you something that will take some of your focus off the crazy world right now and build a more positive mindset!

[Hedaya 💕 YA Fantasy Author @dayapete]

@FullTimeFluency To me, there’s absolutely no point in learning a language if I don’t get to use it. Even if I lowkey suck and can barely make proper sentences, I’d prefer it over silent fluency any day!
