Classes

I want to update all of you of my classes, but there is so much to try to communicate. Like a typical woman, I could easily jump all over the place to tell the story, so I will try my best to be clear (in case there is a man reading this…)

I approached this trimester with a lot of fear. I liken this trimester to childbirth the second time. Now hold on, I’ll explain more. With Avigail’s birth, I was really excited but really had no idea what to expect. With Ella, I knew it was going to be hard and how much pain there would be. The first trimester of language school, I really didn’t know what to expect and I was excited. And the second trimester, I know how hard it was so I’m bracing myself. The blessing that childbirth brought was incredible, one trimester of language school has brought incredible blessing as well. It is pain with great purpose, just like childbirth!

The first couple of days were not very good. It was obvious that I hadn’t practiced during the break as much as I needed to. I really felt that I was in the wrong class, because it seemed I wasn’t at the same place in understanding as other students. So I prayed that God would make it clear what I should do. I wanted to be in the right class to learn the best. I talked with the director and she said that she wasn’t going to move me, because of how well I had done last trimester. She told me to wait a week or two and if it was still the same then we would talk about it. But she said she would be surprised if I didn’t start doing well. What??? Oh yeah that’s right, I prayed that God would make it clear where He wanted me. He made it clear.

Praise God things are clicking much more now. Someone is praying!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you. The other blessing is that I don’t have as much homework as last trimester. Last trimester I had up to ten pages a night. Now….I have 2!!!! That is much less overwhelming.
