I was working from memory, because I couldn't be arsed to go
off & download vlaste. My sentence was intended to say:

"The reason for this sentence is a recent event of my
experiencing the experience of wishing to actively
speak Lojban (= to engage in Lojban speaking)."

It may contain grammatical errors that I'm not aware of,
but AFAICS, points for possible confusion are the lujvo
"lojbau" = 'x1 speaks Lojban' and the use of ce'u, which
I won't discuss in this message. Apart from that you see
my preference for postselbri x1, as a protest against
the rule that unmarked postselbri sumti is x2, and my
principled preference for loi/lei as unmarked/default
gadri when not explicitly intending plural reference.
Oh, and you also see a useful use of zu'o in contrast
to nu, which would likely receive a za'i reading.
