finish my bachelors degree
Ai 14 months ago

I attended the art institute of Orange County from 2003-2005 but couldn’t finish because of financial reasons but now I have the chance to finish my degree online with the Art Institute in Pittsburgh, I should be done in two years, and then I can work on getting my masters here in Germany.



learn german (read all 3 entries…)
Living in Germany 16 months ago

The best way to learn a language is to live it. Put yourself in the culture for a year or so. Language learning doesn’t happen over night, it takes years. I’ve been living in Germany since oct. 24 2006 but I didn’t really start studying the language until august 2007… I had very bad habits that ate up my time, internet surfing and games. With those habits now broken or at least drastically cut down I was able to really focus on my goals. I descided to mark it as complete because people kept telling me my German was good, I can compunicate with people not without a few problems or missing words but communicate none-the-less. So goal complete!

Now I begin learning French! i Will of course continue with my German, it never stops. My end goal is to be completely fluent, which simply takes more time.



pay off my student loans
Basically... 22 months ago

I haven’t paid back anything in over 2-or-so years now and I moved to German… seems for good. I plan to pay the money back but when I have money to pay back…
