FB is a fantastic tool, but sometimes self-discipline is needed. Now, with that, we are off to answer a potential client inquiry that came through FB!<br /><br />@Tess: thanks, girl. The exam was on Thursday. It was very tough, but fair. Not sure if I made it -- I just don't have enough simultaneous interpretation experience, but we shall see. The waiting game begins...results are back in November!

At first, it was hard, but it got a lot easier as time went on, and now I am a lot more selective in what I do on FB, and I spent a lot less time there, even though I added a fan page for my business! <br />I can only recommend it to anyone who feels like they are addicted (even if they won't admit it out loud!) to anything like that!Anke Betzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17067513457163853411noreply@blogger.com
