When I open the drawer too quickly, the box sometimes falls from the edge and the keys fall out.	Kad otvorim ladicu prebrzo, kutija ponekad padne s ruba i ključevi ispadnu.
However difficult Croatian is sometimes, every small step gives me new company, new jokes and new opportunities to stay motivated.	Koliko god je hrvatski ponekad težak, svaki mali korak mi daje novo društvo, nove šale i nove prilike da ostanem motiviran.
