ya that`s how u wish ppl in german.Its a different feeling to try and understand a new language from the start,especially at this old age.I confess that I sometimes used to get annoyed with the ppl I have taught english to for not being able to get grammar right...I now know how they used to feel and would like to say sorry :-)
life here is a roller coaster ride...its just that u feel u are only going down with the ever increasing burden of studies....but I guess there is a method to tackle this ,although I am still to discover that.The director is a very precise man.The guy is out to prove a point and has big plans for the college...
have four lectures a day...from 9 to 6:30....usually end up in the library or planning the night`s study schedule by 7:30.....got a red mark today...was not because I failed in something but because I do not know how to swim....have to learn swiming from the MARCO (yes...Marine Commando) and earn the green card before being allowed to swim...don`t see that happening in the near future though....
more later...
