A lot. I'm in college, so Stats, Japanese, Communication, and History there. But that's just the surface.
I'm also reading a lot of eBooks (mostly nonfiction books: Deep Work, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, Models: Attracting Women through Honesty.) I also want to read Wilson's new translation of The Odyssey.
Finally, I just realized I had feelings for a friend of mine when she started dating someone else. I decided that it'd be healthier for both of us if I wished her the best and moved on. We're on good terms, so that's good. So I'm learning a lot about myself and relationships there.
- kotrunga 9y agoJapanese- through a class in college? I just finished learning all of the Hiragana pronunciations. Trying to figure out if I want to commit to learning the language or not.
- gallerdude 9y agoWe're required to take 3 semesters of language (has to be the same one). I fell behind somewhere last semester, and now I'm more in "get a good grade" mode than "learn it for life" mode. The way sentences are structured is fascinating though, so I would recommend it for that. But learning it to speak it would probably be a huge time-sink.
- jwist 9y agoIf you are reading Mark Manson I would also suggest: As You Are by Nick Sparks Good on you for being honest with how you felt, it's something I still struggle with.
- kotrunga 9y agoYeah, +1 for openly sharing challenging things. Working on that too.
- gallerdude 9y agoThanks for the book recommendation, I’ll check it out. Yeah, it’s a goal of mine to be both confident and vulnerable, and being honest with myself and other people is how I do that.
