I have the beginner book and am on chapter 4; I’ll consider this complete when I finish an intermediate book, even though I won’t be fluent. Fluency will be another goal after that.

How I did it: I didn't actually "do" this, as in accomplishing it through a set plan or thought process. It just happened for me through a series of things that happened in the last few months that made me realize some things:Those things that everyone (society and my family) think are worthwhile things to strive for in life really mean diddly squat to me.No one else is living my life, so they don't know what is best for me.No one else is living … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started listening to other people more. Mainly I "accomplished" this goal by going through a lot of personal pain and somehow that changed my personality to where I don't want to talk so much. Not in a bad way, it's just that when I was younger I loved to hear myself talk because I thought I was the smartest person in the room with the most interesting life. Lol.

It’s getting longer fairly quickly. I’ll consider this goal complete when the bottom of my hair covers my bra strap across the back. Probably three or four more months.
Imparo l’italiano per una o due mese. Io desidero abitare in Italia per imparare, ma bisogna abitare qui perche ho tre figli e lavoro qui. My grammar isn’t great and I don’t know nearly enough words, of course, but that’s understandable after only a month or two. I really really enjoy learning this language and am learning at a very comfortable pace. I’m on capitolo quattro; I started oggi. (I don’t know how to speak in the past tense yet!)
