On First Days and Disappointment

Today was my first day back to classes. I started the day sleeping till about a half hour before I had to go like I normally would before French class....Of course I managed to get sick... I suppose these things happen but it doesn't make it suck any less. Today's agenda had 5 items on it.
-French
-Logic
-Japanese
-Refund Check
-Ling Book

French went well. There are way too many kids in the class but that will change I am sure of it. Most of the kids I was forced to talk to seemed nice enough. I had already had the teacher before so there were no suprises... After that I hurried off to Logic because I was super excited for it and wanted to be there on time.

Long story short, Logic sucks. The teacher is quite possibly one of the biggest assholes I've come across in quite some time... This is quite impressive considering I work in retail.... You lose 20 points for being absent. Absent is defined as being absent, late, leaving early, or taking a bathroom break. If this wasn't ridiculous enough, he insists that a lecture hall (150 college students) sit in assigned seating. I'm not going to lie the guy could be pretty entertaining... but for the most part he spewed mostly anti republican doctrine and made some somewhat offensive comments (one of which outraged my mother when she heard about it) Needless to say...I have unregistered from his class and will be attending Turkish Language and Culture tomorrow... It should be a good time....I will be quite upset if it isn't...

I went to Japanese class expecting it to be awful. I even had that nervous sick feeling. Fortunately everything went great. The sad amount of Japanese that i retained after fumbling through JPN203 came back really quickly and the rumors of my teacher being a bitch seem largely untrue... Hopefully she stays this way. I need to work hard this semester because I want to be able to function when I go to Japan next spring...so hopefully I will not screw up.

Tomorrow I have to go to that new Turkish class... Japanese and Linguistics.... Wish me luck... Hopefully I won't need it ^ ^

Starting Tomorrow I Will No Longer Procrastinate...

Yeah right.... Now that this winter break is coming to an end I am realizing how many things I was going to do and have still yet to do... I was going to learn to knit... and study Japanese, French, Latin, and Spanish... I was also going to start study Norwegian and Romanian.... I was also going to get my trip to France set up... and start exercising...

I think the language issue bothers me the most because I call myself a linguist yet... I have a basic knowledge of French and can barely function in the others... I know next to nothing about linguistics... and I kind of feel that I've been lying to myself and others on how I should be proud of myself for this...

I want to learn to knit...actually more than knitting I want to learn how to sew... This is somewhat more difficult... But I suppose when I actually have the time my mom would be glad to teach me both... There are so many cosplays and lolita pieces I'd love to create but right now am simply not capable yet.

Exercising.... Even though I feel less bad about this one...Its still something that I've been neglecting. I have lost a bit of weight due to dieting/honey sticks but still....Its something that I need to work on especially if I am going to be cosplaying Faye Valentine in July.... Even though I am somewhat comfortable with where I am at... My size will just not cut it...

But anyway.... I am going to try to actually work on these issues this upcoming semester...and hopefully I will make some head way on it...
