Classically people will say this is good for you, and the truth is that’s because it is!!!
It takes time to truly “enter” a new language, but once you get there, it will open your brain up to whole new structures of thinking. I have been learning German for the last year and today I had an actually mind blowing experience in class. It was very emotional! Awe inducing…
Not to mention that memorizing new words and grammar structures will make you feel soooo smart. Also practicing something daily and noticing yourself getting better is amazing!
And then, in the end, you’ll be able to talk to more people on this earth? What a gift.

Now the goal is an eventual PhD in Victorian Literature but I’m just happy to have made it through this part at 32!
Stacked is everything I read in my English courses—barely pictured are the 5 stuffed accordion folders of other reading materials under my chair haha
