Stage 1, Day 17,
Jumping in bed in a few minutes, before then, I'll post something.
Gym went well, pMemory went pretty well, still have some residual stuff that I'll resolve very soon.
Prepped in advance for my mock interview, and was able to do rather well; I still need to make technical terms into layman's terms.
I visit with my intern professors; they've been very kind recently, in light of the fact that I submitted a form to my new internship manager in some pretty broken French. That is to say that I've written quite a few Anglicisms (writing the language through the mind of an English speaker). This new manager is VERY keen and proud of her French heritage (so I hear), and knowing that, these professors were enjoying a laugh from the irony.
They suggested that I get a French correction software (which I hear is very good), and to listen to French radio. Can do.
For some reason, I'm feeling a weird feeling that this lady won't/doesn't like me because of that unprofessional mistake; it's not at all logical. I feel like such a woman in this case; I've never met her. I'm letting the emotion flow and it's mostly gone.
So much of 'Man Transformation' is making sense to me; it's my 3rd/4th time listening to this. Eben says that the best way around those invisible blocks is through frustration. Hmm.. how interesting, as I've recently come up against some frustration. It's also stated that maturity means dropping 'games' that we play that give up short term benefits. Example, if you find out your blocks, you can't resort to feigning ignorance anymore, because you now know it. I can certainly see some glimpse of resistance to removing those crutches, such as not being 100% native in French. But I'm going to crush that.
