"I'm going under, I'm suffocating..."

Holy crap. I am overwhelmed.

Linguistics - okay. It sounds like it might be a little bit abstract and vague and crazy analytical, but okay. Not freaking over that. The teacher's not a professor, he's a pretty young guy...

Latin - WTF, WHY AM I IN LATIN II?!?!?!?!? I took two years of high school Latin two years ago!! Ahhhh. I vaguely remember stuff but that doesn't mean I know it. And I don't have the book that he wants because he didn't have anything listed - 'cause, like I thought, he's just using the book from Latin I...which the bookstore is sold out of. So I guess I'm gonna try somewhere else. But he wanted us to look at stuff tonight! Agh. And oh yeah - the professor is FREAKING CREEPY. He's a little old man, and he apparently has these outfits - suits - he had a white and black striped suit with a yellow handkerchief in the pocket and a red bow tie. And he has this sweet little voice and smile - with scary teeth. He called out every one's names and then did that little smile after every one, and I was fighting to hold in my laughter at first - but then he just started freaking me out. Mr. Rogers gone sadistic killer, in my opinion.

Persian - What the hell did I get myself into. The guy's from Afghanistan. And the whole time he would just say phrases in Persian and keep repeating them and then make us repeat them back, do little conversations and such. I got the general ideas after he repeated them enough, but I don't know them concretely. And I swear, barring a couple people, that class was people who have taken Arabic or something, were older linguistics people - like beyond undergrad age [my ling professor was in there with me!], or were from somewhere in the Middle East themselves.

So yeah. Oh my god. I feel way behind in Latin and Persian. In both classes I was thinking about dropping them. But I don't know what I would do. I don't want to feel as panic-y as I did in those classes this whole semester, I'll go crazy. And those two classes are four days a week!

And yeah, I think I want to change my major. 'Cause I don't think this is for me. I didn't know what I would do with my life with this, and so I'm still not gonna know what I want to do. I don't even want to go to college, really. Can I pause and rethink everything?

Ah >< BWAP.

college, freakout
