I’m finally able to announce it to the world – I’m pregnant and due in November 2019! Junkyu and I are so excited and it sometimes still doesn’t feel real. We have been married for three years now and I’ve had baby fever for a while. I knew I didn’t want us to have kids […]

2018 Recap and 2019 Goals
It’s a week into the new year, and I’m so glad for a fresh start! Looking back, 2018 was a decent year for me, and I got to do a lot of amazing things, but I’m also happy to have a clean slate. In 2018, I worked at a company tutoring some of their staff […]
New Habits – 새로운 습관들
My husband and I have been trying out some new habits this year, and though progress takes time, I think we’ve both come a long way since the beginning of the year. We are both trying to eat healthier, and I’ve been trying out new recipes whenever I can. This year alone I’ve learned to […]
Back from America!
So we finally got back from our trip to the U.S. where we had our second wedding ceremony for my friends and family! Junkyu’s sister and two nieces came with us and we were busy but we had a lot of fun and made a lot of great memories. The professional video and photos will […]
First Knitted Sweater
So, a while back I finished knitting my first sweater! It went a lot smoother than I ever anticipated and it boosted my confidence, as it was my first large knitting project. Before that, I had only ever knit shawls, socks, hats, scarfs, and other small projects. Ever since I started knitting back in high […]
Handmade Modern Hanbok – 손으로 만든 생활 한복
Recently, I’ve been seeing a lot of people wearing modernized versions of hanbok, the traditional Korean style of dress. Some people wear quilted versions in the winter as house clothes, and other people wear hanbok tops with normal skirts to create an even more modern look. Since I’ve gotten into sewing, I wanted to […]
Less is More – 대청소
Anyone who’s asked us what my husband and I have been up to lately will know: we’ve been cleaning. And organizing. And recycling. Just generally getting rid of stuff. 요즘에 주말에 많이 청소했다. When we moved into our apartment in 2015 (I can’t believe it’s been that long!) we spent a few weekends going to […]
Am I Creative?
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about creativity and what it means to be creative. A while back, I read Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic, and it was such an inspiring book. Gilbert believes that everyone is creative and that everyone is capable of creating. She also believes that fear holds a lot of people back […]
First Time Cross Stitching – 십자수 첫 작품
My mother used to cross stitch before she had me, and I’ve always looked at her work and wanted to try it. I did attempt my first cross stitch back in high school, but, frustrated, I gave up. 옛날에 우리 엄마는 십자수를 했었다. 그래서 나도 엄마가 했던 작품을 해보고 싶다고 생각을 했다. 하지만 처음에는 너무 […]
Penny and the Beast
As I speak, our cat Beast is trying to figure out how to use a puzzle feeder (a ball that I put treats or food inside that’s intended to give cats an activity when they get bored). He hasn’t been able to do it yet, but he’s a lot closer to getting a treat out […]
