I...really, really hate starting out a day so up, and then just having it go...bleh, you know? Damned Nakama language lab makes me feel so bloody stupid and incompetent. And I should know better than to be amused at myself because usually if I am, I'm in actuality being stupid and annoying. I just...hate that feeling, of being so positive about a day, then realizing it was one where I just should have wiped it all and started over. Seems like more often than not I end up feeling like I can't do anything right.

You know, when I was in my first 4 semesters of Japanese I *always* sucked at the language labs. I did terrific in the rest of the class, but I considered language lab points lost from the start. Same thing with my gf. We were generally the top of the class otherwise, but I emerged from the language lab highly frustrated and doubtful.

*However*, we also used to do this stupid Japanese Contest thing twice a year, and I always got the top score in listening comprehension. It was pretty much agreed that my listening comprehension was always my strong point and generally far above where I was supposed to be for my level. So honestly--Nakama listening labs are more difficult than they need to be, imo. Don't judge yourself on the basis of them. And incidentally, I doubt you'll ever need it, but if you're ever stuck on homework or whatever, I'd be more than glad to help you, you know. ^_^

Should it be called ironic that I'm reading your post because I'm sitting in front of the computer desperately needing to study and procrastinating my ass off because I Just, Don't, Want, To?

How can I love and hate this damned language so much? Honestly, I suck at it, I'm useless at it, I never have the time to study like I should, the idea that I'm actually learning it is so damned laughable that I may as well admit the truth and just quit trying.

Positive feelings about the day huh? Yeah, I started with those too, sunk that by 7:30am. I blame it on the clouds, I'm incapable of feeling good if it's not sunny anymore. Yeah. Because it has nothing to do with my self esteem or achievements. Nope. Not a bit. Not one. Nope. ~nods in an attempt to convince~

What do you say to screwing all responsibility and spending the next few days watching sexy men make hot monkey lurv?
