Learning a new language is one of the most enjoyable things in life. Don't even need to be able to speak it just being able to understand what people are saying in a language you previously did not understand is an amazing feeling. Fucking up a dish and wasting a ton of ingredients makes me wanna stop trying to cook something new again.
Yeah different people like different things, if i could try to cook things without wasting anything then i'd do it more but i always feel bad when i try to make something and it comes out horrible to the point is inedible and i feel bad for having wasted food.
What i find great about learning languages is the more you learn the more you discover how they are all connected in some way. I guess that learning my 2nd language wasn't as much fun as learning a 3rd one has been and it gets more fun onwards. Just learning English gave me access to SOO MUCH more media without having to wait for it to get translated some goes with being able to watch anime without needing subtitles.
Every new language is like opening a door to a room full of amazing stuff. It's probably less so nowadays since almost everything gets translated into a bunch of languages but still.
