1. I'm an early bird, no matter how late I go to bed, the next day, get up: before 6 on workday, before 6:30 on holidays. 2. I'm sensitive, my brain can't get too excited late at night (counts since 22:00), or I won't fall asleep in hours. 3. Our camp begins at 21:00, normally lasts 1.5-2 hours, which has a huge overlap with my sleep time. ----------------------------------------------- So yes, I normally can't join the live class. ----------------------------------------------- But now, I'm checking the recording of last sunday's camp, till 1:15, just can't wait to post this after finishing it (1:41 in total). Two words in my mind: NO EXCUSE, unless like this time, I was on my four-hour flight to another city. ----------------------------------------------- I feel so sorry for missing this live class. Why? It's a PIRF assginment talking about getting a cold. Until now, 1:15 out of 1:41, they go through three parts: the vocabulary about a cold's symptoms, practice (pronunciation & acting), role play (describing your symptoms in a pharmacy). ---------------------------------------------------- Yes, I have a solid sleep time, a tight schedule, too many things on the plate. Yes, lame in many aspects of English so take an average of 1.5 hours out of LME for reading, listening and vocabulary. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I haven't figured it out, but I hope one day I will. To make the English/German/others balance, to make the LME/self-study English projects balance. ------------------------------------------------------------ By the way, @Miko Zhou you are soooo great this time!
