So, senior year is halfway over. This presents a dilemma to me. On one hand I can't wait for high school to be over, and on the other I cant wait for high school to be over. But there is this girl. She is way more into me than I've ever been into anyone else, only issue is shes a junior. I want to be able to leave high school behind when it is over, but this girl is trying her best to make that next to fucking impossible. Keep in mind this is not the same girl as Wednesday. And man was that sweet sweet fulfillment of like an 8 year long crush.
anyway yeah so I'm really starting to get down to it as far as what language I am going to do next year, I know that I am going to double major in anthropology and linguistics but I just.. I dont know what language to take. I am pretty proficient in German having spoken it most of my life and taken 6 years of formal grammar and literature class in school, so I should continue on with that, but I feel like I should do something else. I had a pretty promising idea last spring, the pastor at my church offered to let me borrow some of his new testament greek material, college textbooks/practice cds/interactive disks that he used to teach Koine greek in his seminary class when he was a professor. It was pretty sweet. And then the Methodist church decided that he needed to go somewhere else and I had to give him his stuff back. So yeah, I've been scrounging since then to find good Greek texts, but yeah no one wants to fucking learn greek so even BN doesnt have teach yourself greek/greek textbooks. This is all compounded by the fact that there are like 9 different kinds of greek that you can learn, ancient greek, koine greek, scholastic greek, medieval greek, erasmusian greek and modern greek and fuckin hell if most of the texts I have found online dont even tell you what one they're talking about (and they're all different ffs)
my other option is do do parsi, chinese or hindi (something thats.. actually useful) but I would have to learn another alphabet to do those (I've already got the greek down thats why I've kinda tried to commit to it) and not to mention that mandarin is a bitch, and most people in india speak english already. OSU has a great persian language program so I may look into that as well, though my friend mark who is a persian language/islamic studies major says its really fucking hard but absolutely worth it in the end. oh well
but yeah once I get that dilemma sorted out I'll be straight and life will be good. just gotta figure out what to do about this girl.
