I didn't post anything about this publicly, but I had a goal to finish the German Duolingo course by May. But then I decided to use my downtime to finish it by the end of March. Then I ramped it up and wanted to finish it by Sunday night. I did all the sections by midnight Sunday and posted the accomplishment on Twitter/X, but wanted to get a good screenshot of the Daily Refresh section to post here, so I just redid that section to get this:
Author of WICKER PARK WISHES, a novel, published by Eckhartz Press "It's like 'Hi Fidelity' from a woman's perspective. A 90s book about relationships." - John Siuntres, WordBalloon. Language discussion and expression, a view from the city: "A fascinating and enlightening look at language and other important matters" - Rick Kogan, Chicago Tribune "...definitely an interesting voice!" - Languagehat.com "...a great site!" - Mary Beard, Times Literary Supplement

I finished the German Duolingo course!
This doesn't mean I'm done studying German; I have a long way to go, and now my goal is to get even better by August because I'm going to Berlin to study for a couple of weeks with Easy German. I will do a separate post about that, but I'm very excited to go to Germany. I haven't been there in several years, and back then my German was horrible.
