I was just busy thinking I wanted to be at home and did I really want to be at uni and should I have stayed there with her and almost wrote the whole thing off.
But after a year of German, I decided I don't want to do German anymore.
It's too difficult, the grammar.
The grammar was horrific.
We used to get taught by this guy with a vest under his shirt who was horrible to us all.
To the point where we all complained because he was such a bad language teacher.
If you want to meet a bad language teacher, that was a good example.
He was awful.
I'm sure he knew his stuff, but he just made us all feel stupid.
And we were university students.
It was strange.
So I got to the end of that year and switched course.
Tried to switch to English Lit.
Couldn't switch because they said my grades were too good for that cohort, which didn't make any sense.
It still doesn't make any sense now.
And so I ended up doing American studies, which was a combination of literature, European influence on America, film studies, conspiracy theory, all sorts of really good history, politics, literature.
Everything, almost like everything you could imagine, but in the context of America and the history of America.
Yeah, that sounds fascinating.

in the University of Milwaukee, and I had a Saturday morning rollerblading module.
