Oh my god oh my god oh my god. Critical Language Scholarship, yay! Except I have to write four essays... alas. Gwaaaaaaa!
I am swamped in Chinese and Japanese homework because I did not have my textbooks for the first week. And I also did not have my workbooks the second week. I am smart.
Chinese is four days a week, every day but Wednesday, for fifty minutes, at 9:10 am. But then the prof decided that we needed to come in on Wednesday morning too, to work with the TA. So now I have Chinese five days a week. I would be pissed, except that it's my favorite class, and I really can't complain about getting better at Chinese. Sadly, I work until 2 am the night before, so I'm a bit foggy in the morning. However, my ability to sleep in seems to be lost on me anyways nowadays, so perhaps it's for the best.
Also, my new advisor for Chinese Studies, is awesome. He has lots of random stories, and showed me a video of one of his friends telling a weird story in Chinese. I don't understand 90% of what he says, but it's still hilarious.
I think I grind my teeth when I sleep. This is no good.
Martial arts club should be fun this year. Lots of interesting people in it, and Trevor stopped being a creeper.
I still haven't unpacked my room yet. ...Probably won't happen until next weekend, too.
Mao Zedong's family name 毛 máo means "dime."
However, 貓 māo means "cat." (Tone difference.)
Therefore, Chairman Meow.
