Summary:
English: HMD (wasn't counting, yup), songs, chatting German: a little bit of Memrise (I WAS DERE!), maybe some more ahead, songs Pre-exam stress subdued by certain knowledge of how to actually do things tomorrow. Don't know if I'll pass, but regardless of that I will come back to more German and Greek (maybe some others too) once this is over. Well, I'll finish HMD first, but that won't take long, hehe. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I passed the exam nearly effortlessly (except for hours of waiting
maybe). So, now I'm officially free to do things about languages, including some crazy projects (Καλημέρα!) :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Summary:
English: HMD (still in action and I don't count anyway) German: Memrise (some both before and after the exam, haha), a little bit on songs Well, tbh, most part of the exam was waiting, and both outside and inside the class I thought about the same words: Ihr seid nicht hässlich, nein das liegt am Spiegel und wer die Augen schließt der bleibt flexibel. Und darauf geben wir euch Brief und Siegel und wehe wer das prüft. Und das Prinzip ist einfach viel viel klüger es geht euch gut ihr seid die wahren Sieger. Und daran glaubt ihr lieben Schwestern und Brüder - immer, immer wieder. I even wrote them while I was in the classroom - oh, how bored I was... And, apparently, I've been mixing up daran and darauf, cause I wrote the last line with darauf. Gives an idea that it's pure learning without actual understanding (I don't remember what words Brief and Siegel mean, and they aren't the only ones here I don't know, so...), but that's the problem I was and am well aware about. Gotta fix that after I'm done with HMD and poat-clossed-session euphoria :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Okay, I'm done with House M.D. (and, yeah, I'm really fast at these things). I still don't really know what is, for example, sarcoidosis, but I wasn't watching series in order to broaden my knowledge of medicine.
Given that I usually act like an addict on series, I think of rewatching Sherlock (guess which one), though I know for sure that some episodes Eng+Eng are hard as hell to understand fully. Doesn't mean I shouldn't try though. After that... Doctor Who. It's time :D As for German... I'll get down to Memrise (yes, I will), and, maybe, rewatch something just as well. I actually can try to watch Das doppelte Lottchen Ger+Ger... again. I can't feel improvements after that, but that doesn't mean there is none, eh? I could even do something about my other patiens, pardon, languages, but today's an F1 day. Alas, no room for these lads. At least, presumably, no room for them. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Summary:
English: lots of HMD (wasn't counting, but definitely more than 5 episodes), part of Sherlock s01e01 Eng+Eng, chatting German: a little of Memrise (but more than nothing, yeah), songs If there were no F1 today I would have ended up rewatching something in German for sure. If you can be sure about something that hasn't happened, of course... 1 person has voted this message useful | |

No point in postponing today's summary:
English: Sherlock Eng-Eng, blog translation (I HATE WHEN I UNDERSTAND A SENTENCE BUT CAN'T TRANSLATE IT ANYWAY!) German: Memrise, songs Greek: Michel Thomas (δεν θελω ενα τσαι, θελω κάποια πάγο!) There will be more, probably, but I can mention it later, or tomorrow, or forget about that at all. Actually, I have problems with English translations sometimes because I'm not sure if I understand it right. At these moments I think "languages are incompatible, it's beyond your possibilities, deal with it by forgetting it". I hate this altitude, but, seriously, how can one overcome that feeling? Examples of words triggering that state: - to lift and heed position - when you distill it down Fortunately, overall this post is simple to work with and I hope I forget that desperation soon and continue improving my English on daily basis (better with some additional actions, of course). 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Sorry to nitpick, but... attitude, not altitude. Altitude = how high something is
(usually above sea level). :) 1 person has voted this message useful |
