Sooo excited about learning Mandarin after my first lesson today, I’m like, I can speak a bit! I’m trying so hard to keep reiterating the few phrases I’ve learnt just so I don’t forget by next week. It’s kind of fun actually, I had fun, so much that I had my mind off other stuff for a while, until I got back to PGP and to my room and it’s suddenly like, oh, back to life, back to it all. I wish I could be away, distracted like that all the time, I wish I could find a way to keep my mind completely off, , my mind. I need to get away, or something!
