Various notes

Ok, so I have a new blog: footballcoffeeandpolitics.blogspot.com. Here I discuss less personal things and more my perspective on the really important things out there. somewhat. I'm so sick of politics right now, but I figured it would be a catchy title.

So with regards to personal things, I am finding that Greek is infiltrating my language a lot. As you notice, almost every sentence starts with so (oύτος--I think, I may have that confused with another word. It's 11 PM, give me a break), and I've been having a lot of sentences involving "one the one hand...and on the other" (μέν...δέ). Pretty much every Attic Greek sentence thus far that I have read contains one of these two words.

I'm also noticing German infiltrating my language skills too. Today walking to school after practicing piano (at which I am getting MUCH better, thankfully. I doubt I'll continue after this semester, but it was good to do) in the trailers, I said "Je ne veux pas acheter de büch". This is really starting to get frustrating. My language barriers, rather than being reinforced with more languages, are breaking down. Soon, I'll make no cognizant sense whatsoever (not that I'm all that far from it).

In good news, my history work on both fronts has greatly improved. My thesis advisor told me that I'm one of the top three in terms of how far along my ideas are. Then, in history of medicine, I FINALLY BROKE THROUGH THE GODDAMN CEILING. Yep, Ray got an A on a written assignment. Before October. In even better news, iba this paper that was supposed to be requisito, mais the professor decided to make it extra credit.

See, there go the languages.

Anyways, I'm still waiting to get paid for the lab class I'm helping with. I don't know how long I should go before actually going into my boss and asking if she changed her mind and I'm supposed to be doing this as a volunteer position.

I'm about two days away from revealing the big secret on this blog. I have some more paperwork to fill out and a few essays to write and then I'll post what kinds of epic changes I'm going through.

I hate this feeling that there's so much to know, and I can't possible know it all. 5000 languages, all the science that there is out there, the intricasies of ideas and of events. Ugh. That's just my main areas of focus. What about all those things I've never studied?

Anyways, I have to be at school in like 7 hours, so I need some sleep.
