Hello!
SO...here's what happened: I didn't get into the PhD program I applied to BUT I got the fancy big kid job. I bought a house. I still do art in my spare time. Now, I'm endeavoring to learn Spanish (Latin American).
About me:
Name: Nash
Age: 30s
Pronouns: they/them
Location: Buffalo, NY
Eclipse Total
I live in Buffalo, NY, so everyone is going completely eclipse crazy. I work for the City and even they're closed for it.
Anywho...I thought, "Wow, what a neat opportunity for a word/phrase of the day!" Guess what "total eclipse" is in Spanish...
ECLIPSE TOTAL
Français en español
I look forward to, someday, speaking spanglish. For now, however, I seem to be stuck with españçais...franñol? Either way, my many (mostly unsuccessful) years of French study is making numbers in Spanish really hard. SO, here's a chart that nobody asked for:
un - uno - one deux - dos - two trois - tres - three quatre - cuatro - four cinq - cinco - five six - seis - six sept - siete - seven huit - ocho - eight neuf - nueve - nine dix - diez - ten
Otherwise, things have been pretty productive. Learning Spanish is proving to be a much easier task that French was. That said, my mother spoke Spanish (and spanglish) daily so I've been exposed to it much more. Who would've thought exposure would make languages easier. Lol
Bravo.
Newcomer
In my language learning journey, which started with French long ago, I've found myself, like many others, being drawn to learning through gamification. People love Duolingo for this reason and I've used it for years myself. I did some reading up on it though and decided to try Babbel this time around.
ANYWAY, in my information superhighway travels, I came across Newcomer! It's an RPG that has translation and vocab building aspects. It unlocks words and phrases as you level up. You have a phrasebook for quick reference and a whole host of questions and statements to click through to interact with the NPCs. It's not like "game of the year" but it is entertaining enough to hold my attention. I don't even typically like RPGs so...give it a shot. It's $10 on Steam.
Bravo.
So that was short lived...I got a big kid job for the first time in my life. I dropped out of school today. Cya @nashstudies !

I...I think I got the job.

Last chill night before the semester starts tomorrow. Took a nap. Lost a game of Warmaster Ancients. Breakfast for dinner.
Bravo.
1.28.23
I have an interview AND classes start on Monday. I'm...a good kind of anxious? Excited. Stressed.
Finding it difficult to get into reading at the moment which is unfortunate. I can't fall behind before the first week even starts!...or can I?
Also, my cat is a good little man. His name is Bud.
1.27.23
So...my funding hasn't come through and it was supposed to. The semester starts on Monday. I'm very grumpy today but the show must go on!
1.36.23
Work has been kicking my butt lately.
Hopefully I can get those readings done this weekend. I'm totally not stressed about work/school.
I have around 20 books required reading this semester. I don't think my bookshelves can handle much more of this...
1.25.23
"Because this is a graduate seminar..." Assigning readings to be done for the first class. *Hmpf*
Let's do this!
My semester start next Monday, 1/30!
