Nothing will make you feel stupid like trying to learn Chinese.
Sarah was at the store in Shanghai yesterday and needed something- so thought to call me to ask how to say something. In a panic, I folded. Couldn't remember a single word. Nothing. I had to open my Google Translate app just to fumble through like 2 words. I better pull it together quick.
Not to mention, I feel bad for my instructor. He's a professor at PSU, can speak Mandarin, Spanish, Chinese, English, French, German, and some other languages I've never heard of......and I feel like he deserves a better student. Someone who tries hard. One day he'll find that student....
