Well, I thought I'd decided on all the specifics for my ECs, but now I'm debating adding one last one.

What do you guys think about adding that I studied in the German cultural/language school for "auslanders" while living in Germany?

I didn't do it for any other reason than I wanted to improve my language skills while I was living there (since my college German WASN"T cutting it!). But in hindsight, it is kinda different and it did expose me to a wide variety of people.

Of course, my German still isn't nearly good enough for me to even consider myself as "bilingual" - I have combat German at best.... I can order food and find a restroom - but what else do you need?!?!

Seriously, I was going to just let it ride with 13 strong (well, I consider them strong anyway!) ECs.

I have at least one of each of: volunteering - both clinical and non-clinical, work - military and non-military, hobbies/avocations, leadership, teaching/tutoring. This would probably fall under another "hobby" since improving my language skills seems to be on the backburner all the time, but it is something I really enjoy doing.

So long post for short question - whatcha think?
