Starting a (mini) Add1 Challenge: Toki Pona

Nothing makes you feel quite as dumb as starting in on a new language.
June 30, 2020June 29, 2020 ~ bats ~ Leave a comment

So I’ve been mentioning for like a month now that I’ve had a ‘secret project’ bubbling in the works, and my plan has been to start in on it as soon as I finished off the portion of Riftwar that was available in Spanish, and I put a cap on the series this last Tuesday.  … Continue reading Starting a (mini) Add1 Challenge: Toki Pona

Escaping the Real World

If I spend ALL my free time learning languages, is it still escapism?
June 23, 2020June 22, 2020 ~ bats ~ Leave a comment

If you read last week’s blog, it’ll be of no surprise to you that I haven’t been feeling that great emotionally, and, well, considering the world right now, it’s no wonder, right?  It’s made focusing on a lot of things difficult for me, and has presented an interesting challenge when it comes time to sit … Continue reading Escaping the Real World

Trying to Process the World

Well, everything is bad, and I'm always tired. It's like high school again.

(This blog is the English translation of this week’s primary blog, which was originally written in Spanish.) I think I'm depressed. Well, I think everyone is depressed, because you can't look out the window without getting depressed. This week was tough again. There are protests everywhere, the stock market went down, then it went up, … Continue reading Trying to Process the World

Creo que estoy deprimida. Bueno, creo que todo el mundo está deprimido, porque no se puede mirar por la ventana sin deprimirse.  … Continue reading Tratando de Procesar el Mundo

Getting Through the Week

It feels like putting a flippant joke here'd be insensitive, so I won't.
June 9, 2020June 15, 2020 ~ bats ~ Leave a comment

This has been a rough week.  And I don’t really mean for me specifically, as it was pretty much normal stuff in my day to day life, but the world is just so crazy right now, and it’s hard to not be wound up and numb at the same time from all of it.  I … Continue reading Getting Through the Week

A Look Back on Two Years of Language Learning Progress

Been learning Spanish for 2 years, still don't code switch accidentalmente.
June 2, 2020June 1, 2020 ~ bats ~ 2 Comments

Well, year two of this blog has ended and this blog marks the start of year three.  A lot has happened over the course of this running time, and I’ve seen a huge amount of growth in my language skills. That growth hasn’t come easy, as I’ve devoted a huge amount of time and effort … Continue reading A Look Back on Two Years of Language Learning Progress
