Jan. 12th, 2009 10:12 pmThe day did not continue to get better.
Linguistic structures will not be canceled, because it's mostly filled with grad students. I still have to learn the entire hiragana system in two weeks. But since I had my copy sheets out before my GLU meeting, someone who took Japanese kindly pronounced a few characters and I was able to note down the pronunciation in IPA, which makes things easier. Especially since the professor wrote "r = D, like in pity" and I finally realized it was a flap he was talking about. I'm still freaked out about the class, but not as much as I was this afternoon.
So it's been a nerve wracking day. I have some tea, and I'll watch Rachel, then go to bed. Considering an hour ago, that list included "taking a xanax and curling up in my duvet" I'm doing better.
