I reached a 365-day streak!

Something new has happened in Duolingo and I love it!

The Little Book Box is a book subscription service by the NLB targeted at young readers aged four to nine, offering a broad range of genres. It’s a carefully curated selection by the librarians suitable for children’s interests aimed at nurturing their love for reading. Read more about it here.

Duolingo has helped me get daily exposure to the foreign languages I’m learning and it still does. Bless that little green owl! In 75 days I would reach a 365 day streak earning me the “Wildfire” achievement. There are 12 “Achievements” to be attained and I’ve already gotten 10. So…

What I want to achieve this weekend:

One day—some day—in the future, this will be my home. I’ll be given the role of a corpse. I’ll be lying still under the ground and I’ll have a tombstone with my name engraved on it.
