언어를 배우다 보면 지칠 때가 있잖아요. 저만 그런가요? ㅜㅜ
저는 영어를 배우고 실제로 사용하는 것이 재미있어서 공부하게 되었는데, 일하면서도 영어를 해야하고 이제는 잘 해야한다는 압박과 부담이 생겨서 점점 재미를 잃어가고 있어요.
그래서 사실 친구들과 영어로 대화하는 것이 마냥 즐겁지만은 않을 때가 있어요. 한국말보다 편하지 않고 어려우니까요. 제가 답변을 꼬박꼬박 하지 못해도 이해해주면 감사하겠습니다 🥺 
영어가 안 늘어서 요즘 힘들어요 ㅠㅠ

Sometime I get tired of learning language.
It happens only to me?🥲
Actually Learning English is fun and it's like a challenge for me, so I started studying english by myself a year ago. But now I feel pressure to learn it. I have to become fluent in English because I have to use English at work. 
Also It's been a year since I started learning but I couldn't see my growth.

So this is what I want to say, from this reason, sometimes even having a casual conversation with friends in english can be hard for me. It's not you but the language problem. (Or my problem😂) So I need you to understand me even if I reply barely... this is one of the ways to protect my mental health 🥲

Well, today I'm not posting my daily journal but I'm done it! And .. I know if I don't upload photos then people wouldn't see my post lol so I post with random photos.

Have a good day everyone!♥️
