I had an exam today (German Life and Culture, woo) at eight in the morning, and it took me less than twenty minutes to finish it. In German. There were a couple questions I couldn't answer, and a couple I'm sure I probably guessed wrong, but I think I did well enough to warrant a B/A - maybe even an A. At least this time I didn't answer any of the questions in English.
Right now, I'm actually eating breakfast, and I have nothing to do between now and my Japanese Life and Culture exam at 5:00 except study, knit, and try to use up my 500 pages from the computer lab by printing knitting patterns and recipes. My Japanese 300 exam is tomorrow at 12:30, then I'm supposed to work at 5:00 (I'm calling in sick. I need all the time I can get to study for the last exam), and then German Comp is Wednesday at 12:30. AND THEN I CAN GO HOME. Of course, after a week I'll probably want classes to start up again, and I'm still dead broke, so I'm going to see if any of the stores in Jackson are still hiring for seasonal help. That way I hopefully won't be so lonely, I definitely won't be bored, and (more importantly) I won't have to constantly beg my parents for money. And I'm NOT working fast food.

Are you a foreign language major?

I am! I'm majoring in German, and minoring in Japanese. Don't ask me what I plan to DO with my degree - I fully expect that by the time I graduate I'll be in the psych ward or something. Learning two languages at once is insane.

It's really not that hard, unless you're trying to do cables or lace or something. If you want I can link you to a couple good sites for beginners after my exam (15 minutes! D:).
Some girl came up to me an hour ago while I was knitting in the caf and asked if I'd teach her how to knit after winter break. o_O I gave her my e-mail, and I'm secretly hoping she'll forget all about it, or at least lose it.

Oh, I would love it if you would link me to those sites! LMAO, there's this woman who used to run a knitting guild, and I emailed her. She gave me lessons a couple months ago - actually invited me to her home, gave me needles and yarn, and didn't charge me at all for supplies or TIME. I recently emailed her again, so hopefully I'll be able to do it again. :-)
