Oh, btw. I am changing my last name, as that happened some time ago and it's time my socials reflected that fact.
It's still me, so don't be put off 😅

Working on a little piece for @Govanhill_mag. All the feels, as it reminds my of my BA dissertation.
Such a disappointment to have found out that brandy snaps are not in fact filled with cream like on the packaging.
Sad sad times.

Big thanks to @CIOLinguists for helping spread the word!
As mentioned, this year our annual @ITIPolishNetwrk's slam is an *open* event!
It will be hosted by @PolkaDotScot and yours truly.
Come and join us on 12/12 at 11 AM GMT.
Let’s talk about #Polish! The Polish Ambassador to the UK, Professor Piotr Wilczek, joined by Polish language students and young professionals recently reminded us at @LanguageShow 2023 why Polish is a language so well worth knowing. nitter.cf/PolishEmbassyUK/status…. Studying Polish is not only culturally enriching but also opens so many opportunities... with more than 700,000 Polish speakers in the UK, Polish is the gateway to more than a millennium of Polish culture and to the wider Slavic world.
On 12th December 2023 the ITI Polish Network is holding an Open Event – an online translation slam – and CIOL members are very welcome to attend!
Here is the link to the Polish Network event on Eventbrite: eventbrite.co.uk/e/757902395…

You don't ask, you don't get.
My favourite rule that I had forgotten to use.
Today though, I asked and I did get.
What will come out of it? Well, the time will show.

Is it cheating?
I've just changed the project completion % from segments to words and I am at 35% instead of 24%.
I call it a change of perspective!

It finally happened. New frames.
After sitting on my old ones twice now, I thought that they might not survive another meeting with my buttocks.
Btw. can I put that as expenses? I can’t work without them!

Proofreading.
It fills me with dread.
I think that the quality of English translations decreased over the past year (rapidly, may I add).
And gosh, I translate in medical field and our end clients *do* rely on our precision and accuracy.
What I've been seeing is abysmal.
