Well, actually we teach ourselves most of the time.

I've been doing it for four weeks now.

The reason, I guess, for me being sooooo stressed is because I've recently started an online class for Latin. Today was the first lesson, and it just sorta went down hill after the first five minutes. I found out that I didn't have the right book, so I hurriedly scrambled throughout my house looking for the right one. Didn't have it. Then, my Internet failed and crashed my computer. That happened, of, twice and took me about five minutes to get the site back up. That stressed me out ALOT because I missed half the class.

Then, I finally settled down and waited for the rest of the lesson ((Half an hour)) quietly because I coudln't follow the lesson as I didn't have the book.

Who knew it would almost completely ruin my day!

Thank you for listening to my rant.

I always knew there was a reason I quit Latin

It was my least favourite subject as I'm not really one for history.

Schools these days don't teach history correctly.

Thanks.

Honestly, I want to learn Latin. Then I'll understand the Latin form of the Mass better, which is the Mass my family and I go to every week. But I don't want to learn it this way!

Also, I just today, after two weeks of getting ready and finally setting up the class, that I've been in the wrong classroom with the wrong teacher.

Darn you internet!

Oh, so that's why you want to study it.

Well, how about teaching yourself with a book, instead of using the internet? Perhaps you could get a tutor? My internet always breaks down on me too, so that would be less than ideal

I tried learning from a book, it didn't end well.

I'm a kind of person, where you need to say it for me to remember. Sort of. That or I could memorize, but I don't do that very well either.

Also, tutor=Money, and that isn't something my parents are gonna waste on me. At this time, anyway......

Does the internet say the words to you then, or does someone speak over webcam or something?
I agree though, I'd never have been able to learn any foreign language without hearing it spoken. Having a barrage of it talked to me in class really helps. Our teacher never gives us instructions or tells us stories about herself in English.

Read this.

This week was the county fair. I was there every day. On Wednesday a bunch of us kids went out on the rides. We rode a bunch a stuff and we all took a break to walk through the booths were you throw something and get a prize. (i love ignoring those cheaters that run em) Well, me and my friend Mellissa were walking ahead of everybody else talking. Peter was a little behind us. We came to one where you can get t-shirts done for 20$ with a animal or something and a persons name. We were just discussing that it would be a waste of 20 bucks if you bought your boyfriend a shirt and broke up with him. Well there was one that said Rachel and had a unicorn and Mellissa said "Hey look that one suites you" Me - "Ah, i don't like unicorns" Mellissa - "well they could take the horn off for you" Me - "I don't like pink" Melliss "Well they could do it in brown" Me - "ah, yeah i guess". And we kept walking. Peter got me the shirt in brown with no horn. He was so nervous he handed it to me in a walmart sack. He showed my mom and dad before he gave it to me. My mom "shared" with my tonight that he knows I am only ____ (u know how old i am) (for everyone else the space is a lot younger that 16). Mom said to him "do you have a crush on my daughter?" Peter - "is it that obvious?". Then my parents told him i wasn't allowed to date till i'm 16 and so forth and so on. I cracked up. He is one of my friend's older brothers. This all happened in four days. Whew!

Four days!

He's only known you for that long?

That's a really funny story though, about the brown with no horn

I had a bit of a chuckle about that

My parents don't really mind if I date, as long as I pick someone sensible. I'm yet to find someone.​

He knew of me.

The teacher talks to us ((As in the class)) through a microphone on a headset, no webcams added. I guess that's for safety reasons.
