Learning Korean

So ... I got a little impulsive today. It kind of started out as one of those "I really want to, but I don't know..." sort of things, but then it became "Forget it, I'm going to the store," and then I grabbed just about every single Korean book I could see at Barnes & Nobles.... ^__^;;;; Haha...

I was supposed to go over to my friend's place today 'cause I bought some movies for us to watch and I was going to borrow her shower again tonight, but then she texted me that she was going to go hang out with this guy 'cause he wanted to hang out. Well, I guess she forgot about me lol. I figure it's alright, I can go to the gym, work out and forget about how much I'm not a fan of men at this point in my life, and then take a shower there. I mean, I did that yesterday and got back home in time for the game so it's fine. I just wanted to take a shower in a less exposed area is all lol ^_^;;;; Yeah...

I keep telling myself that I need to get used to being blown off by my friends when they're boy-crazy, but it's still hard for me to swallow it down now even. I think I was more peeved at myself for having any expectations of my friend remembering that the hot water at my place isn't working and I'd like to be able to borrow her shower. Oh well ^_^;

Anyway, I bought a lot of Korean books to start learning on my own and it's actually not too horrible. They have kana for consonants and kana for vowels. If they use two kana, the end of the word is a vowel sound and if they use three kana then the word has a consonant sound -- at least that's what it looks like so far from my skimming the books. I think I'm going to practice writing and recognizing the kana first. It'll help me out a lot later ^__^ I'm so excited, it's going to be tough, but it's going to be fun too ^_^. I can't believe how impulsive I am, but I'm glad sometimes that I am ^__^.
