My interest in Latin stems from the words "Ad astra per aspera", to the stars through difficulty.

Ever since I read those words I've been interested in Latin. My interest in Latin brought me to my interest in Classics which I am majoring in. I guess it was much like a snowball effect.

So far what Latin has done for me is show me how poor my time management skills are. :) By the fourth day I felt both ahead and behind in the class, which is new for me. But I am determined to see it through because I already love it. I love how everything falls into place and situates so nicely on my tounge. It's like that feeling you get when you finally solve that difficult math problem. Latin makes me feel more confndent in my ability to learn and and retain certain information, and my comprehension has already improved in my Philosophy class.

I love Latin!
