I passed N3 level of Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT). Whole life I have been doing mostly technical and engineering work, even hobbies and side interests were mostly technical-oriented.

I would never have imagined to pick up another spoken language to learn. I am enjoying the process of language learning though sometime struggle with it. Even wife has been surprised how seriously I have taken to learning Japanese. The only drawback is that I haven't done anything technology related for a while.
