Everything's Changed in Russian 103

Hmm...where to start?  Different teacher, classmates, homework, grades, tests, small classes, summer classes, everything.

Finishing Homework an Accomplishment?

It's kinda sad that I'm only a week into Russian 103 and I'm already thinking that completing my homework is some great achievement.  Don't take this the wrong way - Out of all of my homework assignments from Russian 101 and 102, I only missed one assignment.  It's just right now with having two terms under my belt and starting off so fast - having this homework done feels like a big deal.

End of Russian 102 and the "Easy Life"

Okay, I'm going to say this now - hopefully just once so I can get over it already.  It's only been one class and I miss my old teacher - I miss A so much already!

Russian 102 Ending Soon

It's hard to believe that my Russian 102 class is coming to an end.  My "interview" final is this Wednesday.  All my correction homework is due as well.....So much has happened this term, not just with my Russian class, but with life as well.  I feel like I haven't had a chance to actually catch up.  In fact, I took a day off of work a few weeks back just so I could sleep in, then do homework and study.  All that got done, but then still life took over again.

First Bad Grade in Russian Class

Finally, I ran into a test I didn’t pass my first try.  Wow, I got through saying that.  It was a verb conjugation test, and let me explain.

How Difficult Should Russian 102 Be?

Really, I should be doing my homework, but it's not going to be that difficult, writing out sentences in Russian, practicing verb conjugation.  Instead I decided to take a few minutes beforehand to talk about the conversation I had last night with my study group at the Green Dragon - is our Russian 102 class too easy?

Hardest Russian Class Ever (Homesick)

Class on Wednesday made me the most homesick I think I've ever been, except on Dmitri's last day.
