Greek club 10/22/09

during this class, we had gone over the 2nd declension in class and its pronunciation. i am still struggling in that altercation of alphabets and i am trying not to interject the English alphabet into the translation. however, i am getting increasingly better at pronunciation of the Greek as well as the recognition of certain letters. it is still difficult, but learning a new language isn't easy, especially at my age.

Greek club 10/15/09

during Greek club this day, we did our first translation of greek. with it being the first, it was difficult for me to translate. however, we got through it together as a class. the one thing that really messes with me on these translations is the difference in the alphabet. i am still adjusting and learning the letters and there pronunciation, but i am progressing as i know half of them right now.

ultimate frisbee

i again went to frisbee on the green this week. even though it had been two weeks since i had gone i felt that i had done better than i did the first day i had gone. provided that there was an unprecedented amount of kids playing, i had done my part in aiding my team. i have not yet reached my goal of catching and throwing a touchdown pass, i have successful caught and passed a few throws.

Greek club 10/8/09

we met again on Thursday of this week. this meet was rather unprepared since our advisor was not present on average, it was not as productive for the whole group. however, i feel that i had done better at understanding the language. during the class i was able to memorize the first declension. even though it was a small accomplishment on my part, it was still something that i can claim that i have learned in this club.
