My semester offically ended Sunday at around 7pm when I turned in my final grades.  I spent the rest of the night playing Mario Kart and watching the Celtics-Cavs game seven (it was Tivo’ed).  Speaking of which, that was such a glorious game.

I don’t start summer school until June 8th at which time I will be on vacation with some good friends in Florida.  I’ll miss a week of inensive reading German.  Because of that, I started German for Reading Knowledge last night.

I also decided to clean out the office because I am loosing my office at the school next Monday.  Yesterday, I took out everyting (and I mean everything) from the office and started to put it back together with an emphasis on study space.  I discovered I have too many books.  My legs are sore today from picking up and moving piles all day.  Meredith and I ordered some more bookshelves to accomodate them.  I am going to finish sorting through my books then.

I have given myself a personal goal of learning a thousand Latin words and a thousand Greek words in the next year.  If I learn 20 words per week in each language, the goal is attainable.  Tonight, besides writing this post and sorting out some books, I am going through and organizing those 2,000 cards into stacks of 20, spliting up the starting letter of each card in a given stack.

I am looking forward to my upcoming language studies.  We will see how it goes.
