Blog Update
Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been updating the blog everyday like I used to. Well the short story is I am taking classes for the rest of the year and won't have as much time to read as I used to which means I won't be able to post as often.
The long story? I moved to Germany 4 years ago and my German is still not that good. I was taking classes for a while, just an hour a day, and that was working, but slowly. Then they got too expensive and I had to stop so I tried to learn through various other methods. I met up with a friend who was also learning and we studied together, but I really need a class to motivate me and make me do the work I should. If left to my own devices I will just put it off and read instead which doesn't help. So I signed up for some intensive classes with the hopes that by the end of the year I will be able to speak German fairly well. They are all morning plus homework and other events so it is a commitment. I am really motivated right now though so I am hoping all goes well.
Classes will significantly cut into my reading time so I know I won't be able to keep up posting like I previously did. Right now I am hoping to post about every other day or so. Once I get into it and see just how much time I will have I can adjust, but for now that is the goal. Hopefully it works as I have way too many good books to read! So thank you for following me and hopefully next year I will be back to my previous posting schedule (with some new Deutsch skills under my belt).
