What the FRICATIVE am i saying????
so all this week we've been doing language learning sessions which is learning techniques and tips to learning languages, phonetics, fricatives, nasals, consonants, vowels, and today we learned some Farsi. (sp?) (the language they speak in iran and some other places.) So, bascially this week i've been saying things like gagagaga and thathatha fafafafa nœnœnœnœ and allllll sorts of other unatural sounds. ohhhh so entertaining...and also makes you feel so ridiculous! but it has also been very draining. along with the extended class room time (9-4 now) it seems like there are a ton of deadlines and projects and presentations that need to be worked on. so right now, im a little overwhelmed and feel like a walking zombie. i actually need to stop writing this and go practice for a service we're leading at our korean church. finish in a few...so yes. 45 mins later...anyway, this week has been much more intense and draining, but also very good. it's hard to believe that this month is almost over! it's flown by! and i would have NEVER thought that i would say that "this month has flown by"...i mean it has and it hasn't. if that makes sense. but i need to finish this up to work on some stuff..if you remember, i would greatly appreciate your prayer! please pray for focus and understanding in the sessions and language learning, and focus and diligent-ness and not to be overwhelmed with all the projects and stuff i have to work on. and also that i can enjoy this last week and have fun times with the people i've built relationships with here. thank you SO much!! i can't wait to get home and see everyone! i miss ya'll very much! ok. later!
