Hope you are doing good! These times are so hard on us, just try to be easy on yourselfs and be kind.

I take an English language course just for fun this semester and to have some distraction from my master thesis... and basically from life and responsibilities.

It is a lot of fun and once a week my chance to wear makeup/get kind of ready.

Wish you all the best with your studies!

November Writing Challenge

I missed the beginning so here are days 2 and 3, hopefully I will be on top of the assignments by the end of the week.

Day 2: What is your favorite fall food or treat? Translate its recipe.

Mi piacciono davvero le zucche. In autunno ne faccio una zuppa deliziosissima. Ci vuole: 

una zucca di hokkaido

una scatola di latte di coco

delle patate e patate dolci

una cipolla

aglio

curry e altre spezie

concentrato di pomodoro

Scaldi un po’ di olio d’oliva in una pentola. 

Aggungi la cipolla tagliata, l’aglio schiacciato e un po’ di concentrato di pomodoro.

Aggiungi la zucca e le patate tagliate, e le copri con acqua. 

Far bollire per mezz’ora.

Aggiungi le spezie (curry, curcuma, pepe, sale, cardamomo) e la parte solida del latte di coco.

Ridurri tutto in purea. 

buon apetitto!

Words I learned:

la zucca - pumpkin

le spezie - spices

il concentrato di pomodoro - tomato pureé

scaldare - to heat up

schiacciare - to smash

ridurre in purea - to puree

Day 3: What do you like to do on rainy days?

Quando piove, mi piace molto stare a casa, leggere un buon libro, bere il tè e rilassarmi. In generale amo quelli giorni di non fare niente. Per me sono possibilità di ricaricare le batterie e di fare qualcosa per me stessa. Per questo motivo mi piace l’autunno: dopo l’estate, la stagione di stare sempre fuori e di fare mille cose, l’autunno sembra davvero necessario. Non vedo l’ora di mettermi i calzini cuccolone e bere litri di tè. Che meraviglia!

Words I learned:

ricaricare le batterie - regain energy

i calzini cuccolone - fluffy socks

for the linguistics anon: If you're looking for a program specifically in english, the linguitics programs offered at the undergrad level are usually only english linguitics and literature, which is essentially an english degree I think??? idk tho. sincerely, another canadain who wants to do the same thing

there’s actually a decent program like that in St. Petersburg that’s aimed at International students. it’s taught in english? but you’ll probably want to learn russian too so you can get around.

More I grow and more I want to know more languages, I wish I was born at least bilingual, because every new book I read, every new song I listen, every new show I watch, every new place I visit, I want to learn a new language so bad.

Two month ago I wanted to learn Japanese, thank to Yuri!!! on ice. This week I want to learn Norwegian thanks to Skam. Next month I’m going to Lisbon and I’m sure I’ll love Portuguese.

What can I do?

So, I want to learn some new languages (obviously taking each at it’s own pace, not all at once), and I was wondering if you guys could send me links to good textbooks for learning each

The languages I’m interested in:

-Italian

-German

-Arabic

Today’s (and actually most days’) study space: my desk at home. 

Yesterday I went to the library to get some literature for my term paper about Balanced Teaching. I really like this topic and can’t wait to do the actual analysis/lesson planning.

Today I spent my morning structuring the paper and got started on my notes. The plan is to finish those until monday and then finish the whole paper until wednesday. We’ll see how that works... But since I have another paper that should be done by 4/3 (due date is 21/3 but I won’t be able to write a lot after 4/3 so I reeeeally want to finish it before) I’m really motivated to write.

The Essay Plan is from @theorganisedstudent (I think she deleted :( ) and the Assessment Planner is from @emmastudies

Heyy guys, I decided to make this drawing of family in korean, in Korea there are different ways to call each parent and also sometimes it depends on your gender, so here are the basics! 가족 - family 할머니 - grand mother 할아버지 - grand father 어머니/엄마 - mother/mommy 아버지/아빠 - father/daddy 누나/언니 - if you are male 누나 is for older sister/ if you are female 언니 is for older sister 형/오빠 - if you are male 형 is for older brother/ if you are female 오빠 is for older brother 여동생 - little sister 남동생 - little brother 동생 - you can use this for both either little sister or little brother
