Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences As a young child, I was, for some reason, obsessed with the idea of learning French.

I doubt I even knew anything about the country itself. I think I assumed learning French would make me sound smarter but, the joke's on younger me, I have no skill in French and never have.
