Fatigue

Apologies if my last few posts have been too similar, repetitive, and redundant. It's just that my whole life right now is 25+ hours per week of Chinese training, and only a 10-hour-per-week reduction in work compared to before language training started.

My typical day is now:
6:45 = wake up
7:40 = start Chinese classes
2:30 = end Chinese classes
4:30 = leave for work
10:15 = get home from work

Somewhere between 2:30 and 4:30 and/or between 10:15 and going to bed I have to squeeze in homework. Meals fit in when they can.

So yeah, I'm a bit focused on that right now.

But don't let that fool you -- I'm still just as annoyed by all the stupid-as drivers in the area who swing so wide on their turns that they enter at least 50% of the way into the other lane before swerving back in line. I just don't have time to write about it.

I lost a game of Puerto Rico on Thursday night. By 3 points. For shame.

Maybe over the weekend I'll think of something better to write about, but until then... I sleep.

At least you have a good rest in MN coming! See you soon.

That sounds hellish. You get the weekends off, right? And how long does this whole thing last?

Alas, since I'm working fewer hours during the week, I usually have to work both Saturday -and- Sunday.
And this will continue for the 40 remaining weeks of language training (44-4=40)...
