The languages? I started Spanish in the second grade, continued it through the 8th grade. French for all of high school and college. German actually started a long time ago because most of my family is originally German, and I thought it a shame there was no one left who spoke the language. Russian I picked up because I was getting tons of Russian patients who didn't speak English at all. Italian I started when the parents went on their 3 week tour of Italy. I researched so they would have a handy bit of useful words and phrases. Japanese? Just cause I want to.
That ASVAB test they give to all high school seniors in an effort to sucker, erm I mean, *enlist* into the army said I had an extremely high aptitude for languages. Guess I do. ^^
Never took the ASVABs. The kids have. Wonder how their scores ended up. I had a "gift" for languages growing up in NYC. I understood accents well & didn't have difficulty picking up words or phrases. I think much of that part of my brain has gone on hold. sigh.. We'll see. Would like to see what the ASVABs would have indicated if I had taken them.
Have missed chatting w/ you since you started a steady day schedule. Hope we will be able to really get together one of these days. I'm sure it would be fun.
Has it really been a year? Wow. I remember you posting when you were well enough to actually do so after it happened and thinking, 'Oh my god!' Really glad you're fighting fit again and you have your life back.
