Yesterday my roommate and I finished our midterm study session at the kitchen table, and it honestly felt nicer than studying in the library. We made instant coffee, took turns explaining our class notes, and somehow the boring chapters became easier to remember 🙂 Living with someone who is also trying to survive school in Korea reminds me that small routines can make this place feel more like home.

어제 룸메이트와 저는 부엌 식탁에서 중간고사 공부를 마쳤는데, 도서관에서 공부하는 것보다 솔직히 더 좋게 느껴졌어요. 인스턴트커피를 타서 마시고, 돌아가며 수업 노트를 설명해 주었는데, 어떻게 된 일인지 지루한 단원들도 더 쉽게 기억할 수 있게 되었어요 🙂 한국에서 학교생활을 버티려고 애쓰는 사람과 함께 산다는 건, 작은 일상들이 이곳을 더 집처럼 느끼게 할 수 있다는 걸 다시 생각하게 해줘요.
