    ^ What it says on the tin. Anyone?

    Wouldn't just two orals be lovely?

    Do you constantly screw up basic concepts by saying things like 'j'arbeite'?

    Don't you feel stupid now for you cocky 16-year-old decision?

    Hold me..:(

    Oh I hear you buddy..I do German outside school as an eighth and for two years I've been ritually tempted to quit either it or French.

    But was generally doing ok till now, thanks for asking srfc. Just the prospect of two orals next week is ruining my otherwise perfect Monday-evening-before-my-Irish-oral. I'd be such a happy camper now if it weren't for French. As a language I consider it an evolutionary mistake.

    I did French and German for my LC. And Irish of course. So that made for a fun week of orals.

    It's not so bad, but the language you want to speak is usually the last that will come to mind. :) I used to mix up French and Irish a lot. Not so much German.

    no regrets though, I'd do it again given the choice. my school was pretty good about stuff like that. I was one of the first on in Irish and put to the end of the French list to give as much of a gap between them as possible. I'm sure german was stuck in there somewhere but there was only a few of us in that class so order didn't matter.
