I wouldn't mind learning another language.
If I do learn a new language, I would probably use Babbel so that I can learn on my own and during my own personal time outside of work.

Honestly I would love to improve on my coding skills. Right now I'm okay at modifying other programmer's code, but it'd be nice to write my own code. It would help with my hobbies like being an admin on a few forums, I could eventually learn to work on themes or plugins.

@Ravenfreak This is something I've been thinking about as well. I have these ideas for plugins that would benefit potential forums and the only thing I'm lacking in is on the coding aspects.

I really don't know anything about coding so it would be nice to at least get the basics down.

I have been thinking about learning how to code for a long time but I haven't got to it yet because of time constrains. I would like to try it someday

From a very young age, I have been attracted to photography and would like to gain more practice in it. I feel that being able to seize a moment or to narrate stories through images allows for creative expression and, at the same time, helps me store various memories.

For me, it's learning to play guitar. Music has been dear to me and I feel that being able to play any instrument would suit me better. I see these skills helping me in relaxation and focus while boosting my cognitive abilities as well.

I very much want to get into public speaking. Being an introvert by nature, I usually find it hard to put myself out there in groups and express my thoughts or opinions.

I was painfully shy as a kid and had a hard time when talking to one on one to people much less get up in front of a crowd.

When I got to high school, it got a little easier. By that time, I was forced to get up in front of a crowd and give speeches so that kinda helped me to get over the shyness a little bit. I still don't like getting up in front of a crowd, I'll admit, but if I have enough time to prepare myself for the occasion and have all my facts straight then I make it a little less uncomfortable.
