So today has pretty much been all about Greek....I woke up thing morning, an hour after I wanted to..so about 10:00. I needed to take a shower and such, but then I needed to finish studying for a Attic (ancient Athenian) Greek test I had at noon today. It was on conjugating all tenses of the Subjunctive for βαλλω (throw) and παιδευω (teach) and then also to know the future and present Optative of παιδευω. There was also some identifying of verbs so I had to know the case, number, voice, tense and mood of seven different words. So I THOUGHT I was ready... but I messed up on the Active Present and Middle Aorist Subjunctive for παιδευω.... *sigh* I though there was a θ in the word ..but it was not so..it was a σ... so alas I lost a few marks there and I always just guess on the verb forms...THERE IS NO WAY I CAN HAVE EVERY FORM MEMORIZED! So after that awesome 50 mins. I had lunch ...which consisted of egg salad wrap, cake and chocolate milk. At 2pm I had Greek lecture...that was fun. Our prof was in the hospital for a week and a half and he really likes to talk about his life.... so for 35 mins of our 50 min class he talked about his hospital experience. I won’t talk about that... he just blathered on....but man do I love his stories...they are sooo funny. So for the last few mins. of class went over how easy the Subjunctive and Optative is.....yepp threw that back into my face...thanks. After that it was Geography... not bad just talked about glacial erosion, transportation and deposition... fun stuff to see what a 2000 m. thick block of ice can do. Then at 4pm I had Roman Civilization.... we talked about the daily life of an ancient Roman... amazingly it was a dull class.... our prof. speaks really monotone. After that I came back to my room on campus and fell to my bed...I didn't want to fall asleep...but ended up sleeping for a bit anyway. Then I worked on these Greek translations I need to do... (still need to do) and I really hate em... I have to do 24 sentences today since I couldn't had one in last week and asked for an extension. At about 7pm I went with my friend to go eat Mr. Sub and had a Cream soda and a breaded chicken wrap...yumm... and ate it back in my room as I watched the newest episodes of Fariy Tail (anime) AND IT IS GETTING SO GOOD!!!! And now I am writing this, but I should be doing by translations...I still have a shit load to do. And it’s not finding the words that are the hardest thing to do its putting the sentences together.... Greek doesn't put things in order...here is a sentence I translated that has not been modified.... Although of you many better being, contrary to opinion general I was judged.... so now I need to look at how the words are formed and used and make this mean something.... I REALLY HATE THIS STUFF....Well it is 12:23 I still have most of my translations to do and..Well I’m screwed..But I need to get this all done by 2:30pm tomorrow..... NO SLEEP FOR ME! YAY!!!!!!!
AND JUST NOW: Since I wanted to add Greek into this post I tried to change my keyboard to allow me to do so...I thought I failed....but It worked...It just doesn't seem to work on this (Had to copy words used in this from webpage) So now my typing off this is in Greek and I can’t change it back!!!!!! URG! Well this is just peachy!
Ok so after 15 mins. I got my English keyboard back! ...wow V_V
Back to the books.....
