i find reading something that i am genuinely interested in, really helped sustain that interest and let me get deeper into the intracacies of learning a language.
postsecret.blogspot.com is one of my favourite websites, where people post their deepest secrets on a postcard anonymously, and they get published on the website. sometimes the secrets are sad, happy, tragic, funny...but always poignant.
i only just found out they now offer it in german (also french, korean and spanish) yay! i only hope u find it as interesting.
Your hyperlink did not work for me when I clicked although it did when I manually keyed it in.
Update:
http://www.postsecretdeutsch.de/ now comes with translation - go to the top, on the right under "uebersetzung/translation." You can use it to hide or show the translations, there's a similar function for french
I follow both the american and german versions, n find that a lot people have very similar secrets, and i think, its not such a lonely planet after all
now this is a great idea!
