I feel old sometimes

Too old to be running around like I do. Which is funny because I'm only TWENTY-ONE years old. Although my birthday is in 8 days. Rundown of the week:

Went to Frankfurt, then Heidelberg, then France (!) and sang in a Church

Had the first of a succession of "WHAT THE FUCK I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH FOR THIS" moments in my Einführung in die Kulturwissenschaft class. Only the vaguest of clues what my teacher was talking about.

Spoke with Frau Brosius, head of the Master's Dept. of Transcultural Studies about my project with the DAI. Felt extremely dumb and unprepared.

Had dinner with an American friend who, I'll admit, is amusing in small doses

Went to the Gym

Spoke to the DAI folks about what I might want to do maybe. Possibly.

Had an "eh" audition. It might work. I sounded good in the practice room, at least.

Went to Choir rehearsal.

And now I'm home. Peaks and Valleys. I feel really smart in some of my classes (which is comfortable and I like) and very, very dumb in others (which I hate beyond all reason)

You win some, you lose some.
