I have always mentioned that my German classes are wonderful and quite enjoyable. But lately, I think they are becoming a little slow. Daniela is as good as she always was - but I think the whole class is moving a little slow and even the topics are not that interesting.
Right now, the chapter is about different types of sounds - yes, different varieties of human-voice. I fail to see this topic to be interesting.
I still haven't gotten that tempo after losing two weeks of class.
And finally.. to add insult to injury, Now I am very talkative in the class. This is a vicious circle - when I find the class boring, I do something else and that would make me even less interested in the class and then I'd do something else... .and it goes on and on and on...
My only regret about talking in the class is that I disturb Ewelina (the girl with whom I speak and, love to speak) and Daniela (the teacher). So, in the last class, I sat somewhere between two students who are really studious and wouldn't talk.
And the result is what you are seeing in the picture - :)
Well, for a drawing in the class it's good... isn't it?
I have to get back to writing articles for the class and make myself more involved. The class is way too slow that I drift off to before many others are done with the topic. Perhaps I should talk to Daniela.
Another trouble is... even when I am not as active as I used to be, I am the one who is most active. Sameera (Afghan girl) even asked me - What do I usually eat - to be active, singing, jumping around all the time. What can I say? {Can I say that I am just simply really madly deeply passionately crazy? - this sentence proves it, doesn't it?}
Failing to plan is planning to fail - I've known it for ever. Still, I wasn't planning anything during the past few weeks. Anyway, back to planning.. back to tempo... (it was an almost night-out yesterday).
Signing off, Sands.

Nice Picture...
BTW, most of your pictures have leaves and flowers..
Back in school, all my pictures (!) (we were made to draw pics in drawing period) had an elephant (my elephant really looks like one!) ,even in front of an hut.
So, this leaf and flower thing is a coincidence or .. :D

Well...
Leaves and flowers are all I know! :(
And coincidence part... I had wanted to draw a girl in my class. (un)fortunately she came very late... By the time flowers had been begun!
I know how it feels to sit in a foreign language class.. been there, learnt that! Lovely writing...
Thanks for the link btw...
