i'm loving the hell out of that song, at the moment.

STRESSFUL
WEEK.

not only that, but stressful weekend to come, and stressful week thereafter. i'm so sick of the stress. today i had my spanish oral test, and i had to get up early to drive Dafydd to the airport. i then went back to sleep, but it was a bad idea because i woke up for the second time groggy and tired. ORAL TEST = FAIL. i'm not exaggerating, it was that bad. i had to ask her to repeat most of the questions, think i completely misunderstood one and answered wrong, then she caught me out of the blue by asking what i think of the hispanic culture and hispanic people. WTF??? everyone before me had been asked about what they like and don't like, and i get this general i dont even know how to answer in english question. yeah, i said "i don't know". en espanol. it was excruciating. the only thing that made me feel better was that my study partner Sarah went straight after me and she also got the hispanic question and also faltered. phew. but i felt so prepared, and now feel like shit. i'm not doing spanish next semester. i was thinking about dropping it, but now i've decided.

i have an assignment due in on thursday for linguistics. a phonology assignment that's going to take up most of my time this weekend. i really need to get a good mark, and it's gonna require a lot of work. which really sucks, because there's so much on this weekend including Supitcha visiting from Melbourne, but i just really have to take the time to do it. it's important. i need to get my grades up up up to get into Speech and Language, and i know i can do it if i make the time. other things will have to wait.

i am DREAMING of it being thursday now, assignment done (to the point where i'm 100% satisfied i did my best), no more classes, apart from spanish on friday, which i will SKIP because i don't give a shit.

i sound like the world's biggest nerd in this post :( i just need to get my nerd-mode on for a few days. then i'll definitely be letting my hair down/glasses of in a sexy porn-music montage. party time

nawp, i'm only 1 1/2 years through..i'm okay at reading and writing, but speaking is SOOOO hard! i think the only way to learn a language really is to live in the country where it's spoken. a lot of people in our class have done that (spend 1-2 years in either spain, argentina, mexico etc) and they seriously OWN our university-taught asses :(
