break it down

i'm on break, and it feels wonderful...

for the most part, anyway. i need to figure out which classes i will take next semester. trying to see into a crystal ball is proving pretty tricky. what to do? what to do? yes, i really wish someone could take me by the hand and say, "look little patricia, you must take this class and this class and then all of your requirements will fall into place. not only that, but you will thoroughly enjoy your classes and quite possibly become an intellectual!"

this is what i know for sure about which classes i must take next semster:

i must dabble in latin american history. AN ABSOLUTE MUST!!! DEGREE REQUIREMENT MUST!!!

and that is it. according to the academic advisor (and you know that academic advisors have never steered students wrong ;) the world is my oyster. i can take any other class i want.



i'm sorry, my dear reader, i have rambled on long enough. i will put my soapbox away for now. good night.

if...

if i was to tell you that this semester has been the most difficult one EVER, would you call me a crybaby? never in my years of college had i ever taken 15 hours. madness, i tell you, madness! i am glad it is all over! well...kind of...there is that nerd in me that loves to learn, you know!!

i still have my grammar test tomorrow. (the one i should be studying for--instead of blogging about.) perhaps i like blogging because it SO much like blabbing. i love to talk, and talk, and talk; just ask my husband. and i guess blogging is talking with my hands. but, i really must study...i have to review all the conjunctions, relative clauses, dangling modifiers, etc., etc.,

au revoir!! bon chance a vous!!

speaking of french, i am still actively pursuing my french lessons. j'etudie le francais les vendredi avec hana et pauline. mais, je dois etudie le grammaire anglais maintenant. un jour mon coeur me dit que je veux etre professeur en France. Je pense que je serais tres contente et j'aurais une vie heureuse. C'est un beau reve, n'est pas?



(i don't have my french dictionary handy, but i hope i wrote that correctly.)

it's almost over

if i could call a friend right now...

i would tell her that i DO NOT WANT to write my final exam essays for my literary theory course. i'm tired, and i'm tired, and i'm tired...

but i need to encourage myself in christ and finish my race.


happy tuesday to all of you!
