Mulla on muutama tämmönen tullu sähköpostissa ja naureskelin kun en enää asu Suomessa että siinähän maksan tullit väärään maahan.

I've got a good memory, but talking with my partner he will often say "I told you this before" and it's just completely gone over my head cause I've been slightly distracted. I'll be listening but things don't seem to register and it's worse when I'm distracted by the fact that I am having to put so much effort into listening. Edit: typo

Half the plants I've grown seem to always catch some sort of a bug that I feel like wasn't my fault, but I usually say a plant has survived despite my loving care.

I've grown some scotch bonnets, coriander and a few fruit trees from a seed but not with very much success. My lime tree was rescued by my sister, the mango by my step-mom.

The only one I've managed to not kill is the dragon tree I have but apparently they purify the air a bit.

To be honest I'm not a native English speaker so your advice is probably more useful anyway. My husband is British and has studied plenty of languages, finding Swedish and Norwegian definitely the easiest to pick up. Romance languages have more complicated grammar but you'll find a lot more TV and movies to watch to casually pick up a bit more of the language, which I find useful because I only speak English as well as I do from watching a lot of TV (first with subs) when I was younger.

Learning a new language. You learn a bit about how languages work, understand other cultures a bit better, usually learn new vocabulary for your native language, understand the relationship between different languages, learn the roots of loan words and generally helps your brain stay healthy, even by only studying the basics.

Looks a bit like a planer but couldn't find anything that big from old machinery photos.

I'm sensitive to rejection so both in person and online I try to be agreeable and also find common ground with people. If someone's stressed out at work and takes it out on me I tend to give them a bit of time to cool down then come and apologise and that seems to go a long way. It may seem silly but I think people refuse to apologise cause they don't feel they're in the wrong but I find it calms people down quickly and then I can bring up my viewpoint highlighting that it's just how I view things and that doesn't make their view any less legit.
