This pretty much sums up my life right now:

Sat listening to Stray Kids 'PHOBIA' whilst watching a ginormous spider slowly inch it's way down the wall to me.

Do I get up and move? No. No I don't because I'm "Stuck with the phobia oh oh oh"

I'm such an idiot 🤦‍♀️

Thank you for my birthday messages! It's so sweet of you! :D

HD'S K-POP BOOKCLUB: Read The Album March 2024: Book 1 & Song 1 Korean Vocabulary Study Lists! (K-pop artists in focus: Aespa)

I had so much fun reading the book for this song in the album! Plus I absolutely love this song! Aespa what a bop you have created!

For the vocabulary for the song I used dictionary form verbs so that they would be easier to study and use with other grammar forms

For the book vocabulary I thought of the themes expressed in the book and translated them into korean using an online Korean dictionary.

I hope this helps with your Korean studies and hopefully you enjoy reading DallerGut Dream Department Store!

(If you would like to see what album I read this for and what other books I read for this album, please feel free to check out my previous post!)

Happy Studying Everyone! X

Not V just slapping an engagement ring box out of someone's hands mid proposal in the music video "FRI(END)S"

Why is that scene so funny?

On a more serious note, I just listened to the track and watched the MV and I loved it! Great song!

[hd-learns-korean]

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! 🥳

I wish you all a beautiful, happy and healthy year ahead!

Just the lobster scene from My Demon. Just the lobster scene. Why? Is the question I want to ask. Why? Why did I laugh at that scene for a full on 5 minutes? And when I say laugh what I actually mean is cackle.

Books of 2023

As we say goodbye and farewell to another month of 2023 and draw closer to 2024 I was reflecting on the books that I have read this year and how many more I have left to read before the year is up.

I wanted to ask you all what books have been your best this year? Did you discover any new authors? Genres? Read any books in translation? Have you managed to achieve your reading goals for this year?

I'm so curious and excited to find out what everyone's best books of 2023 have been so far! I will hopefully be posting my year in reading wrap up at the end of December so stay tuned for that! But if anyone can recommend me their faves of this year, I hope I can add them to my growing 2023 TBR stack!

Happy Reading Everyone! X

Hey all! I hope everyone is doing wonderful and that you are all okay.

I just wanted to write a quick little update.

At the moment I have been experiencing some issues with reading the notes and messages on my posts. I am able to see the number of notes but am unable to see what the messages say or who the notes are from.

So if anybody has sent me a message and I have not replied I am so sorry! Please know that I am not ignoring you at all, hopefully the issue shall be solved soon!

Thank you so much everyone for your continued support! It really means a lot!

Have a beautiful day!

Love HD X
