Boo! 2 Learning

I'm sitting here trying to complete my German homework before our tutor arrives tonight. I'm having difficulty finishing the exercises because I don't like doing them. As I've said, I hate learning a new language. It's very frustrating. And because I know I'm most likely leaving in less than 9-10 months to return back to America, why should I study so hard? I'm getting some basic vocabulary under my belt - especially from our friend Paddy who was here the past few weeks. He was the best teacher I could ask for. I think it comes down to finding phrases I'll use on a daily basis - and being told them by someone close to me who I ask for the information (that's why they say we should find a live-in German boyfriend). For example, "Do you have...", "Can I try this on?", "The check please." I didn't mind learning when Paddy was my teacher. I found it quite exciting. So why do I have such an issue with sitting here, writing, and trying to figure it all out? I think I'm done for today. Let the teacher focus on Chris tonight. After all, he's the one who arranged the lessons.
