Yay!

Arabic is happy! I get the short vowels now! I have done all of unit 2 and found it mostly "easy." Or at least I didn't feel completely lost. I've found that if I do more than an hour and a half at a time or so, it starts to make no sense. So I simply focus on another subject or eat a meal or something, then I come back to it and it immediately makes sense. I love it! Beautiful language.

In Orientation, I attended many study skills sessions, and they suggested that subjects of study should be switched up every 2 hours or so. The human mind can't carry that much information for that long.

I figure an hour and a half is long enough for people who can think very quickly, such as yourself

lol. Thanks, there, Ranz. My problem is that with things like Arabic, it's too foreign to carry that long, and with things that are easier, it's too boring to carry for long...
