My mom wants my brothers and I to work through the summer, so we don't forget anything [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/P.gif[/img] though we don't do a full school day in the summer, we just do some school work in the morning then we are done!

Ach! My mom doesn't really care, we learn it all again anyways. But I want to finish high school early so I can enter the convent. I will not do a full school day though!

I really like the DSMME, and the Daughters of Mary Mother of Our Saviour. Unfortunatley, the latter is schismatic. I have talked to them, and they are soo sweet! And they do everything that I want to do! Well, I could found an order, ha ha [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/lol_roll.gif[/img] lol. I really want to teach, and to be active, be into the prolife stuff, take care of little kids. The SSVM is also an option, so I must pray <big pray>

I have heard, do you have a teddy bear to hold on to? that there are a minimum of two tests a week. Memorazation of long lists of conjegated verbs are required, you are required to write a paper a quarter completely in latin. The list goes on, and on, and on. Gianna, are your parents making you take a language?

ahh This may be why my parents and I don't do it. I take Japanese. This year marks my 3 year of instruction. It's fun. I hope to keep it up. You take German -right?

I don't do latin, and I take the bare essentials in Seton, less subjects, less stress. Less stress, less asthma! I have heard from several people Japanese is fun, is it hard to pick up, and do you ever get a chance to use it?

I'll let you know what I decide for next year. At this point I'm thinking that if I get a humanities option, I'll bite the bullet and sign up.
If I don't, I'll have to think up a new option. :)

I just now checked my program requirements for next year. It's wide open; I'm loving it! :)) In fact, four of my ten courses are wide, wide open. I get two non commerce options, which if I choose, can certainly be Japanese, and then I get two "senior level" humanities, social science, or science courses. Since it's senior level, Japanese wouldn't count, unless I defer those to next year and was thinking about taking 300 level Japanese courses.
Decisions decisions. Life is so much fun. :)


Which do you find more challenging about Japanese; sentence structure, or word form?
