That one where Khan puts the slimy little wormies that he harvests from the armadillo-looking thing in the ears of the Enterprise crewmen and the worms turn into ginormo earwigs that burrow into the crewmen’s brains?
Yeah, I have a headache just like that right now. The past couple days I’ve been getting nauseous, especially on buses and sometimes just randomly throughout the day. Today I figured it was motion sickness from the bus and then being really hungry after class (I slept in and just had time to dump a yogurt cup down my throat before leaving the house). Now I have this very painful headache. I don’t feel ill otherwise, but it’s not making for a comfortable day.
Oh and get this, there’s a guy in my class. He’s my age and he is fluent in 5 languages, three of which are Portugese, Italian and English. He took the first two levels of this class just as preparation for the actual class. He told me today that it gets a lot harder. He barely passed the test for level 2 (that should happen sometime in March) and said that people who had lived in Belgium for over a year failed it.
I am officially horrified.

Ok, first of all. OUCH. That headache doesn’t sound at all pleasant. Sorry. Hope it passes soon.
Secondly, don’t let some guy psyche you out. Stay calm and you’ll do fine. Remember you’ve got a great reason for learning the language and a great person to help you study.

Don’t underestimate the stress that can be caused from such a huge life change. Take a breathe, give yourself a break and just enjoy what you are doing!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an episode of Star Trek, but that just sounds painful. Hope you feel better soon.
