I'm sure anyone who knows me, may know how much I hate Latin. I really suck at it, it takes me about 3 hours to incorrectly translate about 30 lines. I am in this super advanced independent study because the 2000 level latin class I need to graduate is not offered during the summer. I did this to myself, I am sure I could have stayed around in Baton Rouge till December and taken the easy class, but I thought "Summer school only lasts seven weeks, and I can do anything for seven weeks."

Wrong, wrong, wrong....I am so discouraged that I feel like punching myself in the head over and over again. I feel sorry for the man who agreed to teach me this class, because I am a terrible student, and the pace at which I work is painfully slow, to top it all off he doesn't get paid for teaching an independent study. It will get better though, I just have to force myself to work and not do anything else. Today I have looked at Lucan's Pharasalia for about 7 hours and I am no where near a safe stopping point. I really should be into translating the 2nd book by now, but the events of this past weekend slowed me down quite a bit, and I'm playing catch up...

so, this is my boring life!!!!!
