One almost down, lots more to go....

Remember about how I said I'd make a list of 'things I wanted to do before I die'...
Well, I made it, and I'm almost close to putting a 'check' next to one item.

 

1. To learn French             In Progress...  50% completed

 

 I finished A1 with 96%, something I still can't being myself to believe...

A2 is in progress... actually, the classes for A2 are done, and I can take the qualifying exam this November, except I'm scared...Not to make it all about the marks, but a little more numbers never hurt anybody, did it?

So I'll take the exam DELF A2 in February. 

B1 is already being started this semester. And I'm loving it.... After A1 I never thought I'd ever get the grammar right... I gotta admit it, I felt like I was wasting time... But a few more months after gruesome grilling in French grammar(who really likes grammar, except boring people in lecture rooms!!??), I think I'm going to be just fine....

I have not perfected the language, of course not!

But I now have the confidence that someday, I will be able to add French to the list of languages I'm bi-lingual in.

I'm loving it! People ask me why I do this. It's really not easy. To some people I explain the list. But to others, I just smile and say that it gives me something to do during the weekends.

 

I'm not someone who settles for working all week, and rotting on the couch on weekends, only to get up on monday feeling more like a corpse than anything else...

So this is what keeps me alive. And apparently, gives me some purpose in life. Coz living life only to get married and have kids, and see them live another mundane life, isn't enough for me!
