I'm going to talk about school most of the time so please bear with me. I took my college schooling too lightly and now that I'm back to the classroom after more than two years, I intend to make this six-week course count.

Anyway, I can't describe into words what it feels like to be learning a new language. It's like integrating something foreign in my head and bit by bit, I am made to understand why they are different or similar to what I'm born with.

For instance, our teacher asks us how we learn a foreign language, like English for instance, and we look at each other and we don't know the answer. Because we didn't really learn English purposely, it has been there since birth and it is just as natural as breathing. The Germans don't generally speak English but as to why -- that's what I want to find out.

They also capitalize their nouns and most of their supposedly neutral nouns have a grammatic gender, like "Apfel" (apple) which is masculine and "Kartoffel" (potato) which is feminine. As to why, I am still wondering.

My teachers are super. :) Katja comes from Germany and Aida comes from Krygrystan. What's more interesting are my classmates -- most of them are applying for a fiance visa. And you know what that connotes.

I wanted to sign up for the library -- it's only Php200 for a one year membership but shyness got the best of me since I know that I still couldnt read what are in those books. Maybe I will, in A1.2.

That's all for now. I'm getting kinda sleepy.
