Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Q5 2/2 Is there a way to keep the "summer vibe" alive through the year? #literacies 321 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Q5 1/2: My colleagues and I organized play retreats once a month on Fridays to work/play/make. It was amazing to see people in a different light. Maybe it’s not about separating the space between play and work, but knowing that a spirit of playfulness informs and pushes our work #literacies 142 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026A4 3/3: Here’s something Peter Gray wrote that is a real mic drop: “I’m tempted to add, however, that if classes were interesting and meaningful, kids would likely want to be attentive rather than on their phones.” #literacies 082 0

Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026@deroomat.bsky.social your both/and charge works here. I want to get off my phone (as a personal charge to myself), but blaming my phone on my well-being is exaggerated.

Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Sorry #literacies to kill the vibe with this question. I would much rather listen to Kasey Musgraves and play pickleball and climb mountains and escape to sci-fi audio life 150 0
Reposted by Haeny YoonJon M. Wargo (he/him/his) @wargojon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026A1: Tried to prioritize play these last couple of months. Had the best time playing on the (pickleball) court in the evenings and studying young children's playful sound art encounters with their caregivers at the Clyfford Still Museum during the day. #literacies 171 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026A1 3/3: Worry less about what you come home with and care more about the process and the skills you develop while doing this. It’s helpful to have a goal in mind, but if you over emphasize the goal, you miss the joy of thrifting. It’s a blurry thing to have purpose and flexibility. #literacies 020 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026A1 2/3: it’s also all about timing, patience, and a good eye. You have to imagine something disentangled from the mess around it. It’s really an art. #literacies 241 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 26/08/2026A1 1/3: Thrifting. I’m following all these people on social media who find cool cheap things at thrift stores, so now I’ve been doing the same. It’s exhilarating to score a deal. I’m still looking for a $7 Coach purse #literacies 131 0

Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Oh my gosh. That reminds me...The Reality Bites Soundtrack is full of bangers.

Coming of age, unfortunately was not as cool as theirs #popplaypod 141 0
Haeny Yoon @haenyyoon.bsky.social · 14/11/2025I bought a Costco keyboard. The only songs I know how to play are “all too well” and “champagne problems”. But it has pushed me to think about cultivating hobbies and spaces for PLAY now rather than later #fourchordlife #popplaypod 241 0
