But why did you start learning Spanish, English is international, right? Understanding many languages is a superpower, I can talk to more people, read more books, and watch more movies! And now, I can communicate with the family of my boyfriend! (They speak English but they just want to force me to practice!) In fact, I decided to learn Spanish because Bachata and Salsa songs sounded nice! I started watching their clips and they were really interesting! Also, the singers look cute! So, I wanted to know what they mean in the songs! Once I learned the French translation, I noticed that those words spoke to my heart! They tell my story! I downloaded a lot of songs by Prince Royce and sometimes I just wanted to be in my room crying while listening to Invisible (The Story of a Child Abandoned by his dad!) or Dulce (A Teenage Girl Got Pregnant by a Jerk Who Did not take his responsibility). On my happy days, I listen to Unconditional or Las cosas pequeñas which just summarize what I think Love should be!
The key to learning, whether it is a new language or any new subject is always consistency!
