Bec - has graciously shared her next challenge with us. Bec is a mother of 3 girls, yes she is busy and very happy BUT wanted to do something for herself as well, something that she always thinks about.
We will be following Bec's story and I have to say I AM EXCITED!
Right, so now that my wedding is out of the
way, (the best wedding ever!) I have sooooo much spare time on my hands. Ha ha. So I have decided, that in between
school runs, kinder pick ups, toddler wrangling, play dates, arts n crafts,
gymnastics, swimming, tennis, netball, paid part time work and domestic duties,
I am going to master a language!!! I
need mental stimulation, a goal, a ME thing, and once I am fluent (or as close
as I can get) I NEED a 2 week trip to Italy, with the kids at home safe and
sound with their Dad – a challenge for us all!
Why Italian? Well, OK I will be honest… I learnt a little
at school, practiced a little when in Europe , so
I already have the basics. And now that my
6 year old is studying at School, I can hopefully help her – or more likely she
will help me. And I lurve Italian food, I want to eat more, and I love Italys
sights and sounds and life and soul, I can’t wait to go back, and I want to have
a grown up adventure, so Italy, here I come… eventually…
Incentive – Check
Time – um check
Will power – check
HOW – hmmm, good question! Just how am I
going to do this??
To be continued…

ReplyDeleteHi Bec
Love your story, I'm third week into my Italian lessons and am absolutely loving it! I walk out of the class with a massive smile on my face. I have a great teacher at the CIS language school in Carlton and the best thing about this school is you can go to as many classes a week as you want and can swap and change the days you want to attend, so very flexible for a busy chick like yourself.
I can't tell you how much fun I'm having just do it!
