five journals, five project reflections, and one artist statement

Got a two-month challenge on a new language

and the urge to meet the set goal.

My smoothness makes the argument for just

one test in a fortnight. Studying day and night to grasp

and memorize several vocabularies. Taking a day

to form a sentence from each vocabulary, a task I was never

supposed to choose, only take as it was. Always got up and faced the demanding course.

With a little knowledge in English,

I had to use it to learn a second language

Sat for my examinations after the course and

eventually got 1460/1600 in SAT, a good mark for a native speaker student

The mark seemed impossible at the start

but achieved after sleepless nights and determination.

The biggest achievement ever and

my parents and teachers could not hide the delight.

I had to study hard for the tests and learn the

second language with ease.

Breaking the cultural and language barriers

was the motivator, backed by the need

to appreciate cultures. Learning the second language

is my best way to unlock impossibilities, get

better education and access my dream job after

graduation.
