I Just Wish I Could Learn Every Language And All The Histories And About Everyone's Food And Folklore

so yesterday i obviously did all my internship work and i was also able to plan my essay. havent written it yet however thats what weekends are made for. i did my portuguese test, (mostly text comprehension problems) but i didnt manage to finish my math set of problems. gonna do it today.

and i did a little of my excel course :D

yesterday was a nice day. hopefully today will be better!

i made a decison as well; wanna try to use my rest time while working or studying to learn something new or getting better at some other skill. like practicing chess or drawing. maybe give another shot to morse code. the thing is, when i have a pomodoro session, which i like because is the way i track my time, and it ends, during my break i usually decide to watch 10-20 minutes of an episode of a tv show or something. but its extremely hard for me to stop! and then get back to work! ive been trying for mooonths. i use an adapted version of the animedoro method and its just not really working for me because i have a problem with limits. so maybe i should stop and only watch tv shows during my free time. gonna try today a skillmodoro or whaterver name ill come up with today and tell you in the future if it has been helping me. if it doesnt work im not sure what im going to do :/

another thing i wanna try in the future is posting pictures of my desk, notebooks, etc. a goal for the short term future :)

i’m actually tired bro, like from the bottom of my heart. i am tired

yea so what if you speak your target language with an heavy accent?? so what if you screw up grammar??? so what if you stutter and have to ask them to repeat themselves 20 times?? at least you’re speaking and guess what??? you’re doing better than the 40% of the world that only speaks one language so ig you’re pretty badass

Honestly? Shoutout to those of you who are completely fucking lost in life. Those who don’t know what they want to do with life. Those who are stuck in a certain part of life and can’t get out. Those who are reaching for dreams they feel are impossible to reach. Those who feel like they’re accomplishments are being overlooked. Those who feel like their enough just isn’t enough. It is. You can make it. You will make it. There is an opening at the end of the tunnel.

Do you know what a foreign accent is? It’s a sign of bravery.

Amy Chua

never be afraid to speak in front of natives because of your accent! it’s a part of language learning and you can not avoid it; it’s a sign of hard work and effort! :)

That shit about no one being able to love you until you love yourself is so fucked up like darling I promise you that having people who care about you and GENUINELY want the best for you is going to change your whole life and you’re going to completely relearn what love means and experience what it’s supposed to feel like for the first time . I would not be here without my friends rip to everyone with this mindset

reading classic literature as a non native speaker is funny bc you're like jesus christ im so stupid when you dont know a word and then you show your word list to a native speaker and they're like. i have never seen any of these words in my life

adhd is fun bc everything I got taught is backwards

a good day makes good sleep

starting with a lil treat gets the work done

More things to do is less overwhelming

don’t make a plan just get in there

you’ll never take good care of what you don’t like so throw it out (this one is my favorite bc it’s easy to see what you don’t like)

My To-Read list is infinite. This is ok. In fact, this is how it should be. There will always be more books I want to read than I will ever have time for. The part of me that likes to complete things is frustrated by this, but I’ll just have to content myself with finishing book after book.

my brothers share special interests and my favorite thing to do is walk in a room and be like "hey guys can you tell me about the mariana trench" and then sit there for an hour while they both infodump to me about the ocean it's extremely entertaining
