*Tagalog - 1hr

OBSERVATIONS:
Flexibility and Adjustments in order to achieve Month's goal
I will do at least an hour of tagalog per day in the remaining days of April, so that I can finish Pimsleur Tagalog
this month.
Also, I must dramatically increase my hours of French study during this weekend so that I finish Pimsleur French
3 by this month.

OBSERVATIONS:
MOVING INTO NEW HOME & CHALLENGES
It's been challenging moving into my new home as well as keeping up with the languages. Now that I have settled into the home more than before and cleaned it and have most things in order, I feel that I can get back on track. Thanks for this blog for helping me to maintain where I am.
My goals aren't totally deranged because of my week's absence. However, I have alot of catching up to do.
FAO INTERMEDIATE FRENCH LANGUAGE TEST
During this time, I also applied to do the oral and written FAO (UN Food and Agricultural Organization) Intermediate French Test. I am scheduled to do it on the 18th-22nd of May, which is coming up soon. So I definitely need to catch up and revise in order to succeed and excel in this exam! I'm looking forward to it because it'll definitely help in my international career now and into the future once I've passed.
I will continue where I left off with my language action plan, starting tonight!!! =)

OBSERVATIONS:
SEARCH FOR A BANGLA/ARABIC TEACHER
I talked to one of the local drivers we have, and I asked if there were any teachers who taught both Bangla and Arabic. I got excited because he told me that there were 2 schools he knew of that did so. They teach Modern Standard Arabic, which is fantastic. I will follow the drivers up within the next couple of days to ask the rate and whether there are any available. I would love to learn Arabic and Bangla. Bangla for functionality while I live here, and Arabic so that it excels my international career! I envisage working in the Middle East after my posting here, or potentially in Northern Arabic-speaking Africa. Hooray!
