hi minyu, maybe this is not related to the questions and answers thing, but I'd like to tell you something. You've always been a big inspiration for me as a beginner writer — and a reader. The way you glide the conversation between each characters are expressed smoothly, quietly making the readers go with the flow (including me). They way you put the emotions are PERFECT. It's not too overreacted nor too plain, every characters had every right to express their emotions based on the conflict — a honourable mention. Your AU is honestly really comforting to read, the slow-burn, charaxter building, storyline, everything is just perfect! I hope you'll always be in the path of shine, may you always be blessed and become even more successful!

The true question: How do you learn English? I saw a LOT of vocabs that I actually haven't learned about — of course it made me learn a new word, tapi kaya kamu pakai dictionary gt atau gimana min?Trs kalau kerja di perhotelan apakah emg kebanyakan pakai English? Thank you

hello! thank you so much for this compliment…. i feel very touched whenever readers give me compliments in the small things because yes! i do overthink even the simplest acts between 2 characters in my stories and to have someone both acknowledge and give compliments to it makes me feel very very appreciated :) so i sincerely thank you for this ❤️. i’m glad you love the slow burn and everything that comes with it as well — not a lot of people like slow burn stories, so thank you for pushing through and reading :] terima kasih juga atas semua doa2nya baiknya, may they also come back to you yaaah ❤️❤️

as for how i learned english: i’ve been in inter schools practically my whole life so it’s just something embedded within me. tapi untuk cara advance it, i love reading and watching!!! english books, the news, tv series, anything… that’s why i have a lot of vocabs in my arsenal. terus dari dulu aku udah di stan twt & sering ketemu orang2 luar jadinya i’m conditioned to speak in english as well. but that’s basically it, actually, other than english lessons during school, i’ve always learnt it myself jadinya begini deh :))

kalo di perhotelan sendiri sih sebenernya engga juga but you’ll brush with internationals once in a while and that’s why english is essential, especially if you’re front-liners in the industry (guest relations, housekeepers). but even if you aren’t, it’s still an important skill to have karena 5* resorts usually have bule bosses. kebetulan karena aku di bali, jadi ya kebanyakkan bos + klienku emang bule jadinya emang sering pake engliish :))

hope i answered your question(s)!
