>>5605123True enough I'm closer to giving up now. Just realized I failed my grammar exam for 0.60 fucking points. Spanish indeed makes more sense but my uni requires 3 languages. I would choose French, but I fucked up in HS and wasted 5 years. 5 years I could have spent learning French and instead I chose not to listen to anyone and forget about it. Now it's too late. Had I made some effort on French, I might be able to relax in my uni life now, I could have passed all my exams on my first try, I wouldn't have to beat myself up over which aspect and case is which and I would probably be able to read twice as many books. Seeing russian people being desperate here doesn't help. Every day I hear there's a goddamn famine somewhere or people aren't able to pay their taxes and rent, and that even doctors don't get half of what they should expect, except for Moscow and perhaps St. Peterburg. The amount of russiaboos in my class made me even more disinterested in russian culture. Think about it, these fags would know Dostoveski, Pushkin and whatever their names are, they'd know every famous street and statue of Moscow while I didn't even know the name of the Kremlin. That, and my grades are shit except in English and literature. I barely passed the listening test, I can't pay attention to a teacher explaining for longer than a couple of seconds, that must have added up to the fact that I skipped classes on purpose and missed more content. I'm a very slow learner, and even wasting entire days on shit wouldn't help. On the other hand it seems like I'm better at humanist subjects, but no one cares about those. If you want to be a writer or an artist you can do it without any piece of paper. At the end of the day, the translator/interpreter job is a shit one... people think all you need is google translate and unless you have connections you probably won't get anywhere. As for freelancing, don't even let me get started, all of the freelancers are loaded as fuck.
