Frustration is setting in
I have become a little frustrated and just blah lately, and I don't really know why. I guess the newness has REALLY worn off and now I am just trying to figure out the french way of life which is more or less impossible. It's just really disorganized and doing anything takes weeks, which is fine when you aren't leaving in 3 and 1/2 months I suppose. But I am so I kinda want things to get done sometime rather soon. Classes are going alright...I hate my grammar class because we have the worst of the 4 grammar teachers. My african francophone litterature class is alright, but the actual lecture portion is difficult. The teachers here talk REALLY quietly and don't make any effort to be entertaining at all. You pretty much sit there and listen to Ben Stein speak for 1 and 1/2 hours straight while straining to hear any of the words. It's a difficult process. In my sociolinguistics class, I could understand what she was saying just fine since it is just Intro to Sociolinguistics, but everyone around me would not stop talking to the people next to them so that made hearing anything almost impossible again. I have phonetiques this afternoon, which is worse probably than it sounds. haha. This is a depressing little entry, but that's about how things are going for me right now. I feel out of contact with everyone and when I try to email or call someone, I get no response or very cursory short answers which actually don't give me any comfort at all. So. Frustrated. I want to travel but it's actually ridiculously expensive I am finding. I don't know what to do. Go to class I guess.
