I've been lax in posting my Korean language learning milestones and progress. As of today I have 352 days in Duo Lingo and 208 days in LingoDeer. I am understanding spoken words more than ever, and I can recognize many of them on-screen or in print, but I still need a good conversation program to make it more about real-world usage rather than just book learning.

A Re-Read
Since I've been getting a lot of "Game of Thrones" and "House of the Dragon" stuff in my Instagram feed lately I decided to reread "Fire & Blood". It's been a few years, and the pseudo-history of Westeros and beyond is pretty cool. Recently I began a few other books, but haven't been able to stay with them (not from lack of interest, rather just more interest in the "Running Man" series and the two "I am Solo" shows on my phone at night - haha). But this book is always a page turner.

Breakfast
9 mornings out of 10 I have cereal (shredded wheat or wheat flakes).
Today I had mini-donuts with my coffee.
