I worked as a translator. I did not enjoy the time it took.  I speak Spanish, German and Cantonese.  I am dissatisfied and quit my job of being a translator. I am now a writer. I am writing a book.  I am a creative person. I use my language skills in my new job. I would like to learn to read a book in French.
I have not yet started college. I speak some French. I enjoy learning new languages. I like books and reading. I like to study. I am thinking of studying Literature. I have visited Mammoth Cave. I am close with my family. I like being independent. I like being creative.
What is the thing you look forward to the most about starting college? I think the overall learning environment and meeting new people! It's always nice to set out on new experiences, especially when you are young. College is a whirlwind of people and ideas all interacting and learning together.  Yes, i'm a little nervous but definitely excited.  I'm hoping theres some students that speak french and other languages so i can get some practice. I'm sure there will be, depends on the size of your college. Depending, there could be a French club you can join and learn even more about French culture along with the language. I'm sure you could put your creative talents to use. That is true.  Thank you for that advice! I am always looking to utilize my creative skills.  Have you started reading a book in French yet? Actually I have, I started "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" in French. I read the book in English when I was much younger, so it's familiar enough for me to manage when I lose my way but not something I could recall from memory. So far it's been interesting, the French have so many terms for things English simply doesn't. Ahhh that sounds like a nice read, Maybe i can borrow it when you're done?  How do you like the new job with the knowledge of your languages?
