Ce mercredi, j'ai étudié français!
I studied French today, and this language caught me off guard by how much I have enjoyed it. My grammar is always my weakest point in my studying journey; even if it has never stopped me. I think once you move past caring if you get something wrong, it becomes so fun. Learn, work, and get better each study session. It's important to remind ourselves that in our own languages we say things grammatically incorrect everyday. It's supposed to be fun, so make sure it is!

favorite thing ab chatgpt is that if it doesn’t know something it’ll just start fucking lying. like blatantly fucking lying.
my dad teaches english classes and he just got a final paper with this sentence: “In terms of style, both poets are known for their use of imagery, but O'Hara's tends to be more straightforward and concrete, while Stevens' is often more abstract and metaphorical — for example, in O'Hara's poem "The French / Window," he writes: "A cat walks along the garden wall / and the tree waves its branches / The French / windows are blah" (lines 1-4).”
the thing about “The French / Window” is that it is not a poem that exists. at all. like, it was literally just written by chatgpt then inexplicably named as a famous frank o’hara poem. and it’s so. fucking. funny. sooo basically heads up for finals season — those of you who use chatgpt, be warned, because you will quite literally be citing nonexistent texts and your professors will show it to their daughters and together they will laugh at you endlessly and you will deserve it

⛈️ 20.05.2024 // I studied a bit today (2 hours) and I did a lesson about the ophthalmic dosage form! There was a storm while I was doing it so it was just perfect to study with some real thunder noise!!
I also cooked some pizzas (like we choose the ingredients and all) and they were really good!! :))
I try to get back into studying, my exams are in a month so I really really have to study more!!!

one thing about learning languages is that yes, learning in itself is fun but what’s even greater is the fact that all your other interests and hobbies can be looked at with another shade of light. I personally love philosophy and to be able to read another language’s nuances and concepts and understand it more than you ever could with a translation? incredible.
