I think I might be just projecting. I mean, I don't think I've lost interest to languages completely... considering my recent impulse for Persian. But they're one of many things in life that don't seem to make a lick of difference. Exposure to culture and entertainment is good, but ultimately all I'm doing is sitting in front of my computer and reading or watching stuff. And I could just as easily do that in English.

My job was promising to take advantage of my multiple languages... in the first year, but quickly gave up on that idea.
Right now I'm trying to immerse myself in as much to listening tonthe language as possible to hear what words sound like, right now I'm only listening to music in German (some of it is too fast to make out words, ballads are easier to understand). I have a playlist of around 610 songs on Spotify. I don't know if you can get Spotify in your county, but it's free (but Insubscribe for $10 a month), and you can find a lot of songs in foreign languages on it, especially German. It's a good app, I like it.
