Today seems to be both an opposite of days like 2004-08-29 and a repeat of the beginnings of my illness last semester. Having slept through the day, and being sleepy again now, I'm going to go to sleep and hopefully wake up around 6 tomorrow morning in order to do whatever homework I need to do for the day. I don't think I'm sick, because aside from being incredibly sleepy all the time I feel just fine, but if it persists, I'll go in. And this time I won't put up with what I got last time.
Aside from that, I've been persuaded to do the Hokkaido program. It does have this advantage, in that it counts for a year's worth of Japanese (which I am not looking forward to, but apparently it is the language that's important, rather than the country (which strikes me as being - hypocritical isn't quite the right word)) so I can get credit for that, and maybe move on to upper division classes if I feel like it. I'm not expecting to, because as I increase in proficiency I decrease in enjoyment of actually learning a language. In any case, the only other option that was really presented to me was a summer at ICU, and unless someone were to give me a really really good opinion of it, the general lack of a good opinion among everyone I know who's been and returned has confirmed me in wishing to avoid it. I'll probably apply to both, since I can and should, but between the two I'd rather do Hokkaido.
I wish I had the resolution to actually bring my misgivings up to people who could do something about it. But no, I'm so damn used to being always polite that complaint is impossible.
