And It Starts

The -ber months have always been horribly busy for me and being in lockdown--well, Alert Level 4--does not exempt me from that.

Last year, I have taken to baking breads and eventually selling them which kept me busy until December. This year, I added kimchi to my menu and it helped boost up the sales. However, I'm also learning Korean on top of transitioning to my new job which added to the stress. I should be doing my homework now but I'm beginning to believe that learning a new language at my age can be quite a deterrent. I can't keep up with my classmates and I struggle in forming sentences. I mean, I can understand but replying to a question can take me minutes to form a single sentence. 

But then, I realized that everything is just a mind game. I kept on putting myself down in my socmed page which somehow added to the belief that I'm no good. 

I had the same experience in high school when I always thought that I'm horrible in Math. We had a tutor who taught us that it's actually easy and when I got the concepts, I had a grand time. 

So I guess I just have to convince myself that I can actually do this.
