Ca va bien, merci

Today I had the worst day at work. And no, no major mistakes, no stress, no nothing. I did nothing. All afternoon, I just sat there. Did a little bit of work on my paper, which has yet to be finished so can't say that I was very productive there either, even though I probably could have finished it if I wanted to. It's just so hard to focus when you're at work and should be doing other things. If I actually HAD other things to do. Why they hired me, I will never know.

After work I rushed off to my first French lesson. It was pretty cool, I really liked the teacher, not so much the rest of the group. I think my two years of junior high French will come in handy, but not as much as I had anticipated, unfortunately.

Now I'm home, been home for about an hour and a half, and so far I've written TWO paragraphs for my paper. Ok so I wrote a couple of pages at work, but I still need to add a few things because I don't think I've actually answered the question, I've just rambled on on about random facts that I found about Machiavelli, the guy I'm apparently writing about.

I'm seriously considering dropping out of this class. What's the point if I don't want to be a diplomat anyway? And is it really worth sacrificing all of my free time? I have no time for myself during the week, it's just work, gym, and school. And sometimes political meetings. As they say, life is short, I shouldn't be putting myself through shit I don't really want to do. I did spend enough time in school as it is, and now I'm sick of it. But I also have a lot of pride and don't like to give up on things I've set my mind on.

But just for one night, I want to be able to watch TV without feeling guilty!
