paging mr. roget

[fox]

so there's a bit in my SoP that goes "In this single semester I have both shared my enthusiasm for linguistics with my students (I can see from their faces that they are excited about the material - and what could be more rewarding than inspiring someone to choose the path you've chosen for yourself?) and realized how much remains for me to learn."

and half a page later, there's a bit that goes "I hope, in my further graduate work and beyond, to continue inspiring enthusiasm for linguistics in my students," blah blah blah.

i can't have "continue inspiring enthusiasm for linguistics in my students" when i had both "inspiring" and "enthusiasm" in the previous graf. but i'm totally at a loss to come up with something to put instead. help help!
