I found out that my wife is pregnany? pregnant?
I got married to my best friend. That was pretty great.
That is pretty awesome And hello again!
That's so awesome! When is the baby due? Hi:)
In September! This is the... third time we have paired up I think today
Yep... I'm wondering if anyone else is on.
apparently there are like 70 people on though it looks like we are just the two most interesting people that talk on this so they naturally match us up It has to be interesting for science
Makes perfect sense!
So what is the second best thing that has happened to you this year?
Probably getting accepted to go on an internship in Moscow. That is also pretty great.
Oh wow! That is awesome! I take it you speak Russian then?
We are excited about it:) my husband has an internship there a well. What about you?
That is so awesome!
We both do. My husband and I served in Russia on our missions. (That is where we met.)
Umm.... I would have to say that it would have to be my wife getting her new job in a dentist office that is super awesome That is so cool! I want to learn Russian someday
Is she a dental assitant, or a hygienist? I approve of the goal. Though it's a challenging language, it's beautiful!
So she went to school to be a dental assistant but she was having trouble finding a place that would hire her. She ended up applying for an front office position and they took her! It was really surprising but she ended up getting paid more and is sitting down a lot more which is nice because she is pregnant
That's a good place to start. And it is the perfect job for someone that need to be off her feet. Does she still want to work as a hygienist?
I think it is a really cool language too! I learned Japanese which was somewhat difficult as well
Does Japanese have an alphabet?
She is still on the fence. She was going to do the hygienist program at UVU until she realized that it was another 2+ years on school Yes it does... I think. I guess technically yes it does. It is broken into hiragana and katakana which use the same 46 sounds just different symbols for different things, like Katakana is for foreign words and then you have Kanji which is what everyone thinks of when they think of Japanese or Chinese
Hmmm... yep. As hard as Russian is, I am super glad it has a simple alphabet. Have you taken Japanese classes?
I took both of the 300 level classes when I got back but it was so much work that I felt like I wasn't truly learning anything It sounds a lot more difficult than it really is. Kanji is the hardest part because there are so many that look almost exactly the same but have very different meanings
That's tough. I feel like the upper level language courses here are insane. What part of Japan did you live in? I bet that is difficult. But once you get the hang of it, I bet it pays off.
I lived in the south western part of Japan. They were a lot of almost mindless reading which was a bummer I love Japanese and really hope my wife and I can go visit before I forget too much of it That is so awesome that you two get to go to Russia again! I am still so amazed by that
I'm pretty sure you will have a chance to go back. Byu has some neat programs! It has been a blessing living with someone that also knows Russian.
I bet that is so awesome. It would be a lot of fun to go to Japan, I'm just not sure how well my wife would do. Has there been any other countries that you have wanted to visit? Have there. That was bad grammer
That's a good point. Traveling is hard if you aren't accustomed to the area. I'd like to go just about anywhere. The world is an amazing place.
It really is. I think the two places that I would've wanted to go besides Japan on my mission would have been either Italy or Russia I think Italy, especially Rome would be really fun to visit
It would probably be easier to get to than Russia. Sorry, I need to get back to studying. Thanks for chatting for the third time. Good luck with everything!
