Deutsch ist gut.

So, I decided to take German again.  Basically because I have been researching grad programs and a lot of the docotoral ones want fluency in Hebrew and German.  So I figure I'll get German out of the way, and it will be nice to finsh the langauge I took six years of.  I can't decide if I want to keep going with Arabic though.  It would be really helpful when I learn Hebrew, but learning two langauges at once will be a bitch.  Either way, I have a semester to decide because I'll be taking German starting in the fall and Arabic in the winder if I take it.  
In other news, grad school is looking good.  I might take a bit longer to get a master's because my undergrad won't be Judaic Studies, so some schools might want me to "catch up" and take a few undergrad-level Judaics classes.  Shoot.  Even if I do get in, I don't think I could do straight to a doctorate program, which I might have been able to do if I majored in Judaic Studies.  So, grad school will probably be 6 or 7 years instead of 4 or 5.
