one more weekend

School has been going pretty well. Some of the classes like American Literature are a little boring and some of the classes don't take too long to go through. Usually I only have to spend half an hour on some of them. Others take more time, obviously. This week I'm making a topographical map of a potato o_O

My favorite is French, :] The program I'm using is called Power-Glide and its tres bien. ;] They have games and stories to help with vocabulary and stuff and I could seriously sit here and do it all day, its pretty fun. I just have to keep an open mind set and remember I'm not going to pick it all up right away. I'm doing pretty good so far, but it's only been a week ;D

So far Photography has been a little confusing not to mention slightly disappointing. Maybe I expected to jump in and do some exciting stuff right off but I looked at my calendar for this week and we're spending a whole week cropping one picture. That kind of confused me. But all there is to do is read the steps on how to crop pictures using Gimp, open Gimp, open a photo, crop it, write about it and compare. I did most of that last week. >_< Hopefully it'll pick up later in the semester since its only a semester long. It probably will...

Hey! I might be using that French program this year. Only, I started it today to see what it's like, and it's bugging the heck out of me because it doesn't give me the alphabet first and go from there. That's the way I was taught German *and* Latin, and now French is being inconsiderate. I'll probably just get my Dad to find a version from another text book or something. Or, y'know, he could teach me himself. That would be cool.
