lessons and stuff...

I've not done a great deal of work the last few days. I seem to have messed up my body clock, so I am exhausted all day but can't sleep at night. I have a bit of a cold and I'm achy and sneezy. What I'd really like is to get out and go for a run if I can find the energy.

Tuesday was my first Spanish lesson. I spent half of it worried becasue it seemd like the level was way to high, but I began to enjoy it. The teacher is lovely and crazy, and I think that always helps. The lesson was in beta house, at the junction of frat and soriety row. Walking there made me nervous because I had to walk past all the frat houses with their names in greek letters on the wall.. I wonder if they are abything like in crappy american college films; all stupid pranks, brain washing and trying to trash the nerdy frat house next door.

Sanskrit wasn't so good. The teacher hadn't really prepared anything and just jumped around. Fortunately, there is a women in the ckass who knows a lot, so maybe we will get together with her one night for a revision session. I have a book that teahces the very basics, so I came home and taght myself the first of the 13 (yes 13!) vowels.

Between catching up with Spanish (I'm doing part 2 of a 2 semester course) and learning the deverngali alphabet I have a lot to do... better make some time for my thesis too!

My cold is pretty icky today so I habe to try and find some motivation from somewhere
