"why are you doing this to me"

Thank you!!!

Even though tiktok is back, I'm going to stay on Xiaohongshu as well because I really like having the opportunity to talk with people from a different culture, especially one that has been so hidden/stereotyped for Americans. I've actually learned a lot about Chinese culture and language already.

The fact that the app creators were able to add translation features so quickly was really nice, and having that at my disposal is honestly incredible. I could've never imagined having such quick translation tech at my disposal when I was in high school for instance.

I was like, I might do two of those things, but thank you lol. He was really nice and we compared some "snake oil" ideologies in both America and China. It's really nice to be able to talk easily with people from places that America has built so many negative stereotypes around.

It's also really fun to be watching Anime and be able to recognize bits and pieces of what they're saying. I've only been practicing regularly for about half a year, I'm excited to see where I'll be in another half a year!

I wish my brain were better with languages, and that I had started learning languages at a younger age. I'm a bit better at Spanish, which I started learning in High School. It's still really fun to learn new languages, even if it's hard.
