even though I’m a native speaker of German, this one is a tuff goal. I started reading Faust a couple of days ago, at night, in bed and this didn’t seem to be the right time… I fell asleep.
I have now idea why I find it much easier to read English or French classics – German classics bore me. Sigh. I’ll give it another try anyway…

Wooooowoooo, I’m finally done! I passed my last exams on Thursday and now it’s over. Still waiting for the results, but it can’t be too bad. If I really go into teaching, I’ll start next February at a Highschool. I’m currently working on my application but I still don’t know if I don’t want to do something else before…
... in my English exam yesterday. I’m feeling pretty bad about the translation and the cloze test I handed in and I can’t stop thinking about it. It freaks me out that I know I did some really stupid mistakes although this does not mean that the grade will be bad. It’s just that I’m expecting sooo much of myself and I really want to achieve as much as I have achieved during my studies. I wish I could just say: wow, it’s almost over now, happyhappyhappy!
