I am so god damn proud of you all. Every week I read of wins and struggles and it's exciting and inspiring following your langlearning journey.

Everytime I get frustrated I come back to the weekly discussion thread and get that small spark of motivation that helps me push through that next pit of despair :)

I feasted, nay, engorged myself in Japanese, to the detriment of my Spanish and Irish. I'm still doing my Spanish, but it's a drop in the ocean of what I used to do. Realized today I'm probably hella depressed, but I guess it is coming to be in waves? I guess despite my constant efforts, I don't feel like I'm getting anywhere in my languages, so that doesn't help. Feel sort of like, what's the point? You know. Like I like learning the languages, and I want to be good at them someday, but my motivation is in the swanny.
