...
To give you an overall view of how my days look like I tell you this: A month ago I was recommended for physiotherapy. I requested to go to the therapist in the hospital I work as I thought it would be more practical for me to switch my places in the building I already am when needed and this has stayed only in theory so far. Not every weekend is free anymore and during the last weeks sometimes I had to leave the department not sooner than 10.p.m. I cannot feel the days and this is my wish most of the time that a day was more than 24 hours. I feel lucky that I had a chance to join a very vibrant work environment and I feel also stressed. I'm in the middle of my learning process and also in charge of the results of the project that I started. This makes me excited + stressed! I'm starting to know myself more in the new atmosphere with new challenges and in the meantime sometimes I just need to stop, to pause and grab my shoulders, look at myself and think for a little while. The painting class looks nothing like the world that I actually live and makes me feel I entered a different world; world of colors for 2 hours and got back to the real world. And the Dutch course is the latest activity that I'm taking together with Mr.B wondering when would be the possible/productive time of the day to practice and do the homework. Until I realize this goedenavond!

Learning Dutch-3
Broer means brother in Dutch. What makes it interesting is the similarity it has with the Northern accent* in Iran which is the part I come from as they say "Bror" to brother.
And another word Dochter ("ch" should be pronounced like "kh") is very similar to the word "Dokhtar" in Farsi with the meaning of daughter in both languages.

Learning Dutch
Rosetta Stone is a language learning program. If you want to learn a new language from scratch try this, you'll find it very amusing. I've just started learning Dutch with this program. Will share more about the progress ;)
