I'm tired of learning!!!

After 10 years of higher education one would think I have this learning thing down pat.  Well, I don't.  Maybe at 24 years old I am just too old to learn anymore, no I don't believe that either.  Of course I can still learn (and of course I am still 24), but maybe I should pick something other than a new language.  That being said, I can now count to 1000(ish), name the days of the week, the months of the year, the alphabet and greetings and salutations.  My task for Thursday will be German noun suffixes.  I know this is all thrilling for you all to read so just think of how exciting it is for me to actually be doing.  Thankfully, I was given the workbook "German in 10 minutes a Day" by my good friend Jim; yes, I am using the book.  Also, who knew the Internet had free language courses, sort of.  Seriously, what doesn't the Internet have.  On a final note, shortly before I left Chicago I attended a conference on Internet Addiction.  Well, all I have to say is "Hello, my name is William and I am addicted to the Internet."

Counting to 1000 *is* pretty cool. Post again when you can sing the GG theme song in German - that'll be impressive!
