さようなら
I'm pretty conclusively certain I won't be taking Japanese anymore after this semester.
I mean I guess something cosmic could happen and change my mind...but assuming that doesn't happen.
I had a really long talk that I didn't intend to have yet with my mom about it, and her response made me feel a lot better about it. I haven't talked to my dad, and his is the response I think is really going to make me feel awful, but...
So next semester there is a damned good chance I will be taking Spanish.
There is also a chance I might be taking Arabic.
I am not sure yet. I'm going to talk to my advisor. (One of the things my mom said was to talk to my advisor about what language would be the best fit for what I want to do, not just arbitrarily pick on. Not that I think Spanish was picked arbitrarily, but it seemed like good advice. So I will.)
But I feel relieved already.
Also a little like a quitter failure, but more relieved, and I am trying not to be ridiculous and dramatic, because....I know I'm being stupid.
