Languages

Hello all. As some of you know, I'll be going to the Philippines this summer. I'm really excited for this opportunity to go home and I really hope I can pick up the language before I get there. It turns out that Rosetta Stone is a lot harder than I expected. I'm having difficulty learning. The problem I have is that the language just isn't spoken in the same way as they teach you. I don't need to know what elephant is (it's elepante btw). I need to know greetings and what not. Maybe that's a later lesson but I gotta keep truckin' I guess.

This got me to thinking about other languages. No, not spoken language. I'm talking about skilled languages such as music. I've come to realize that I don't need to know how to play certain instruments. What I need, is to learn its language! I was looking at a piece on the piano and I started to look at its interior. What makes it that note; why is it placed there. It's a slow process but I think it'll help in a huge way to unlocking its secrets.

I don't want to keep this post too long because I'm tired but I'd like to share with you the languages that I plan on learning this year:

The Language of Tagalog
The Language of Piano
The Language of Voice
The Language of Guitar
The Language of Exercise (I can probably break this sucker down as well!)

So please guys, help me unlock the secrets to these languages. We can even learn together. Have a good night.

P.S. I want to write more often. I think this is a good time. So, I plan on blogging every Monday as much as possible
