Assalam u alaikum,
Things can get a little confusing sometimes. You hear different things and then you get a little nervous, a little worried. Sometimes people say, "You can't really learn Arabic in four months. You need more time." It gets worrisome, but you just have to believe in yourself and plug on. Not everyone is the same anyways. And the results are never in our hands. Never.
Some more Arabic sayings:
"No right (truth) is ever lost as long as it is being sought."
"As if the suspect said, 'Take me!'" (the criminal exposes himself by his own actions)
We learned the word for insects "hasharat" in class and the names for different insects in Arabic: bauddah, naml, nahl, and then my teacher sprung this Hadith on me, as close as I remember, that if Allah valued the world more than the wing of a fly, kuffar would not even get a drink of water. I don't really know what to say about that, other than that the world is not how it seems.
Ma'asalam,
~Ameer

that comment was made last night, when i hadnt really read the blog yet or your post. sorry to prey on your arabic.
remember:
The Prophet, peace be upon him, sent Zaid ibn Thabit was sent as a young man to learn hebrew - he came back having mastered the language in about two weeks.
ibn Ata'illah said famously and beautifully: No action done through yourself is easy; No action done through Allah is difficult.
Jazakallah Zachariah bhai for the correction. Please pray for us both insha'allah, and how true are the words of ibn Ata'illah!
-Ameer
