Today started out rough. Last night did not go as planned, and my homework never even got started. It was poor judgement of a half-asleep student (me...) that made me think I could do it this morning by waking up early.
I bet you can guess how well that worked out.
I barely made it to my dental appointment on-time, and learned that I have several cavities, and need to have a wisdom tooth pulled. Yes, only one; apparently the others look fine? However, the awesomeness of the dental appointment caused me to be late to class, and I realized that I had neglected to have the dentist stamp my "excuse for being late" paper.
I find it interesting that we can test high enough to get into this program, but many of us barely seem able to understand basic English grammar. We have spent a considerable amount of time, both yesterday and today, learning about the difference between the subject, the object, and different tenses of verbs. I find myself, once again, falling asleep in class.
Fortunately, we did get some exciting stuff. I have two DVD's with a bunch of really cool looking material and lessons in our target language! Not to mention the double-sided sheet of paper full of links and resources! I was so inspired and excited that I stopped at the library, and picked up three books too!
So now I have all this extra stuff, and yet I managed to waste most of my evening doing things that didn't have anything to do with learning a language. Unfortunately, my studies have not gotten far, and I still haven't started a regular exercise program. My room mate keeps offering me to go work out with him, but I always have so many things to do that keep piling up.
I would pay good money to have more hours put into my day. Sleeping is a complete waste, we shouldn't need to do it.
