Well, I have finally come upon a better phase of life. I am, at least temporarily, over my depression, and I am finally seeing sunshine again. I was really depressed about several things (most of which I ranted on about for my last two blog entries. sorry...), and lately because of German. As you may or may not know, I am (trying to) major in German. But this last week it became so frustrating for me that I was in tears and ready to give it up (which is unlike me). I ran into my German professor today (no, not literally you weirdo), and I was able to talk to her, as she was walking to her car. I told her that I am very frustrated by the language, and that I feel like I haven't picked anything up lately. I think she could sense ultimate frustration and desperation in my voice. She told me that she thinks I am one of the best students, and that I'm just worrying too much. She said that I, like her, am a perfectionist and that I tend to kind of freak out when I don't learn something immediately, or seem to have a spot of trouble when I am not grasping a particular concept. She was so kind and supportive to me, and has arranged for us to meet next week to discuss any problems I may be having. I was so relieved that I was able to talk to her today, and that she was so willing to help. It absolutely means the world to me. :)
Next item up, please: Sean. He has now been in Tokyo for 3 days (well, since Wednesday [today is Friday]), and I hope that he arrived safely and that everything is going well for him. I miss him so much!
Next item: home. I have decided to go to my parents' house tomorrow to visit them. Well, to be honest, that is not the entire reason that I want to go home tomorrow. I am going because I can get free laundry, homecooked meals, help with homework, be away from my roommates, and most importantly- I can play POOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SO addicted to that game now. I love my billiards class to death, and I am getting better (I think), so I'm excited to go home and play. Also because my parents just bought a brand new, top-of-the-line 8' Brunswick pool table. It is SO absolutley gorgeous!! *smiles happily to herself* And I don't have to pay $6 an hour to play it, either. (yay for free things when you are a broke college student. :) )
That is all.
Auf Wiedersehen.

hmmm... well, here I am commenting. A faceless, nameless someone who found your user name of interest, having grown up in Germany the majority of my life. Try not to get so worked up over the subtlties fo the language. It isn't exactly an easier one to master. Sadly, I can't speak anymore, unless I am speaking with children. After eight years of living here in the United States, I've forgotten everything! I hope you are planning to visit there someday. It is worth the trip.
bis spaeter!
