Not looking forward to ass to mouth anything, honestly.
I’m gonna be doing a homestay in the summer to improve my language skills. First time living with strangers and hopefully communicating almost entirely in target language: German. Got 4 months to prepare. I’m trying to learn as much as possible. Excited and nervous.
Not to dampen your mood, but you might have to actively bring the Germans to speak German with you, they tend to immediately switch to their own broken English, although, it might also be a super fluent English depending on whom you met
Yeah I heard about that.
Although the whole purpose is to practice language for me and the host is aware of that so I’ll try as much as possible to stick to German. My German is somewhere around the low B1 high A2 range. Hopefully 4 months can make it confidently B1. Idk
Oh and another thing. The types of people who immediately switch to fluent English are young people in cities. This is gonna be some small town in southern Germany. Hopefully their English isn’t great either haha.
Ordering a split keyboard. I’ve been looking at several options on !mechanical_keyboards@programming.dev, I think I now know which one I want
Split keyboards are generally better for ergonomics as you can have your hands at a better angle and distance
Next weekend. Got a couple things planned I’m excited for.
I plan to attend the big, monthly, bicycle cruise and i haven’t been in a while. It will be a bit cold but i have the itch!
Then, I planned a little watch-party with friends for the MotoGP race. That is exciting and will be fun.
But there’s one more thing that I’m excited and a little anxious for that I’m hesitant to say for fear of it blowing away. 😶
A few TV shows are the closest I get.
