You Never Stop Learning

After much thought and deliberations, more like going back and forth with career options I have decided that I don't want a dead end job, I have tried that and it didn't work out well for me. I have battled with the thought of going into accounting and each time I always end up deciding not too.

So I have decided for the first time that I will learn something because I am interested in learning it not for grades or anything like that. It's also to start a new career. I have decided that I want to be a front end developer. Yaay, I am putting it out into the world.

I am already confident in html and css and the next steps is learning Javascript and the PHP and also MySQL. I have researched job requirements and stuff and it seems that, that is what they want and even if I can't get a job I know that I will be able to make some cool websites that will enable me make money for myself.

So, I will be learning that and I have also made the decision to learn a new language. Which is Korean. I have been hit by the Kpop and Kdrama bug. I think I have been watching Kdrama's for a year and a half now to two years. I think it's time I invest in learning the language.

The only other language that I attempted to learn was French and that was in Highschool. I actually got a GCSE C in that but 5 years of lessons. I can say Bonjour, the numbers up to ten and the basic greetings. I wasn't interesting in learning the language, I didn't enjoy it or had a passion for it and I think when learning anything you need to at least be interested in it so I have a lot pdf books downloaded, I have an app (eggbun) downloaded and I found a good website that will teach me Hangul which I have heard is easy to learn. The shortest time I have heard is 1 day and the longest time I have heard is 2 weeks. So will see how that will go. I'm excited. If next year this time I know Korean and I have job as a front end developer I will be very happy.
