Song of the day: Teen Top - To you

I am addicted to this song. 

The dance.

The style. 

Them.

Everything.

I find the dance really...idk...professional? I don't know, I love this type of dancing, except one part LOL

Anyways, enjoy!...well, if you're a kpop fan.

Learning Korean because of Kpop?

I have a my own book where I wrote all of the Korean alphabet, vowels, sentences and etc. When people see me practicing Korean so seriously, they would be like, " Oh it's the new " 7abba" "Kpop" "

Tbh, that kinda got me mad. It's true, and I admit, that I got so attached to the Korean culture because of the music -  I won't in any way, deny that. But, when Kpop entered my life, I got to see the beauty of the Korean language, and that also introduced me to the Korean culture. I got immersed in the culture and the beauty of the language, the amount of respect, the etiquette; everything. And that was three years ago.

I would dedicate all my nights just to learn the alphabet ( proud to say I'm almost there) I am determined to learn Korean, and I won't stop. I mean, to me, it's one of the most beautiful languages out there. And you might think I'm exaggerating, but to me, I'm not.

I would wish that I would understand what my friends are saying when they talk in Korean, when I watch something, I would like to watch it without subtitles.

I'm also learning Korean because I want to be a linguist. So, Korean won't be the only language I will be learning. It's just that, I'm more interested in Korean. I would learn Japanese but it's too hard for me at the moment due to school work whereas Korean is much easier.

Yes, I'm going to learn 3 or maybe 4 languages, inshallah.

But, I would hope that people would stop telling me that those I like those Koreans for the music only. No. I have Korean friends, and I love them but not just for their music. Their personality is as nice as anyone else. Heck, even if they weren't Korean I'd still love them.

I am not learning Korean just because of Kpop.

But I do, still love kpop. 

Song of the day: EXO-K - Mama

Skip to 1:35 to listen to the song.

This song is..unique LOL. SM town ( their company) released about a zillion teasers and prologues for this song, I understand why now.

The first bit kinda scared me but now It's stuck in my head.

If you're not a kpop lover, I bet you won't like it XD

Oh wells, hope you enjoy it!

Korean family

I have to blog about this no matter what. 

I just came back from my Korean friends' house. I had such an AMAZING time. 

Ok ok, lemme start at the beginning, I walked in to find house slippers in front of me. Like, Idk, it's not something big I know, but I just got happy. So yeah.

Next thing was, their mum welcomed me with a hug and a Korean snack ( yum!)

Then we kept watching Korean videos and stuff. When it was 6pm, they had dinner already.  I was like .___. 

Their dad came, and then 2 uncles. I was like " okayy...."

They all called me to eat dinner and I saw the typical Korean dinner which consisted of:

- Kimchi

-Kalbi- something.. ( meat)

- White rice ( in a small bowl! I found it cute haha)

- Korean spicy fish soup ( choked on it, but it was delicious. XD)

- Fried vegetables

- Ddoekbokki ( Korean rice cake which was DELICIOUS) 

 I was really shy. I couldn't eat..lol. I felt like I was an outsider..wait, I am lol. But at the same time I felt so happy. Idk. And they kept trying to ask me questions, and I would try to answer them back in Korean - which surprised them LOL ( OH YOU SPEAK KOREAN) 

They did love the cake I bought haha (THANK GOD.)

Haha. 

Then we went to sing at the noraebang ( Korean karoake). Which was so so much fun. We sang to Korean songs for 3 hours straight LOL

I called my mum early because I thought they'd sleep early, and I didn't want to stay late because it would be rude right ?

When the driver came, they were like  " OH WHY, My mum thought you will stay until 12!" 

I told them I didn't want to bother them haha.

After that, they gave me a present. Yes, a present. I was speechless LOL

I'm so keeping the bag LOL

Pocky, Lotte pie, cookies and Korean sweets ( sweet red ginseng)

I thought that was so nice of them. 

Ahh, I'm just so happy.

Language schools in Kuwait

I recently read on 248am.com about opening language schools in Kuwait. i think that this would be a really good opportunity for people living in Kuwait,or even Kuwaitis (like me) to learn a desired language.

Personally, I have a passion for learning languages. Currently, I found myself being immersed and attached to Korean. I'm actually proud to say that I can read and understand a bit of the Korean writing.

What I really hope for is that foreign schools for languages would actually open here in Kuwait. I really want to learn Japamese. Korean and Mandarin...and maybe Thai.

I tried joining a course once in AUK (..I think, please correct me if I'm wrong.) but they said that I was too young, and that I had to be 15 or 16..( I was 14 at the time.) ..okay...I'm bring forgetful now. LOL.

But yeah, you get my point. Learning a second or third language would teach us new communicative skills, and also provide us with an enriching learning experience of culture and society.

Learning a new language would open many doors for you. I mean, its amazing guys. You'd be able to discover the beauty of the language as well us the culture. And I cant explain how I feel proud of myself when I actually understand a foreign language. There will come a time when I will watch Korean dramas without subtitles! kekeke.

Song of the day: Infinite - Can U smile

One of my favorite songs ever.

Yes, it's Korean. Many people wonder why I listen to foreign music even if I don't understand it. Well, I can't really answer that. But what I do know is that the music is different than others. I mean, read the lyrics of this song, and then compare it to Nicki Minaj's " Stupid Hoe" ...do you get my point? LOL I hope so.


I feel like this song is very soothing, and it makes their voices shine vocally. I've listened to this song countless of times.
