🎾Week 1 of Learning Tennis. 🎾 I play Tennis every single weekday, and this is footage (GIFs) from the end of Week 1 of learning. I’ve been a multi-sport athlete all my life, playing Basketball, Volleyball, Football (Soccer), Cricket, and other similar sports growing up. I was on the school teams for all of them, so you can imagine how huge of a role sports has always played in my life. Because of this involvement, I’m very well-coordinated and athletic, allowing me to gain an advantage whenever I begin a new physical venture; in this case, Tennis. 🎾 I realised Tennis was far from easy though; it looks quite “simple”, but I always knew it was much harder than it looked, and has a high learning curve, making it relatively unfriendly to beginners compared to some other sports. To compare it with Badminton, a sport that more of us have played, Badminton is quite intuitive with its movements and racquet swings. This makes it generally much more beginner friendly, when put up against Tennis. Regardless, it’s been great fun so far. I’ve levelled up enough to be able to hold rallies, which are very satisfying, but I know I still have a long way to go.I find it extremely rejuvenating to be able to begin a skill right from scratch and be able to see the progress I make along the way, in real time. Can’t wait to keep getting better at it.🏛️🪷P.S- Wish I could post full videos!
🇹🇷My Turkish friend sent metons of snacks and chocolates,all the way from Türkiye! I can’t wait to try them all. I also plan to make a video tasting and reviewing them, in the Turkish language! Similar to the one I did for the Chinese snacks review in Chinese. But most of all, I’m really gratefulto have friends from all around the worldwho’re willing to send me snacks for me to try haha Çok Teşekkürler! 🐺🪷
“Far more than princes, states or economies, it is language-communities who are the real players in world history..”“As well as being the banners and ensigns of human groups, languages guard our memories too.” “Even when they are unwritten, languages are the most powerful tools we have to conserve our past knowledge, transmitting it, ever and anon, to the next generation.”
Another listening-writing-reading session.🇰🇿I can see improvements everyday (!)🪷🧘It's a beautiful feelingto see understanding and connectionwhere there once was noneI can’t wait to see what it’sgoing to be like in a few weeks.What are my limits, really?What better way is there to know,other than to dive right in and immerse?[I haven’t spent too long with this language, perhaps its been a week-ish]
