So good!
I feel good. Really good. Balanced. Hopefully I'll write more later.
I'm happy I'm actually sticking with learning Italian. I mean yeah, I'm enjoying it but I feel like there are so many things in my life I haven't persisted with long enough to get benefits. I like the format. It's half hour lessons and thus I can tell that I'm making progress. I'm not just practicing without a goal. If I could have a music program with many small goals like this, maybe I could persist at that too. Certain things we can just enjoy learning but for certain things we need to often have indications of our accomplishments and progress so we can persist. I just finished lesson 33. There are 75 lessons.
I would like to also get back into cycling and get back to where I was last June.
I would like to learn guitar but I don't have one to practice on.
I would like to learn Spanish.
Then I would like to learn more Korean.
I would like to volunteer at the women's shelter here long enough to actually gain skills. This is taking a while to get started on but I might actually be able to start soon.
I am working taking care of a kid after school some days. It's not enough hours but I have an interview for something good on Monday. And if that doesn't work out I'll look for a cheaper place to live.
And I want to finish reading the two French books Alban lent me. Reading French is slower.
