    Stressed...

    So many things going on at e moment, had 2 meetings this afternoon,2 lab reports due, 1 quiz next week(which i never looked at and understood e notes), German homework若干, design project research and summary, at least 3 project meetings next week, 1 group presentation..feel really stressed.
     
    And my fav subject German is giving me headache also,coz i seldom speak up in class.Frau Niemann dun like to point pple to answer qns,so those who r really on will be talking and answering qns all e time.but class participation also counts for part of e CA...what should i do?coz i'm always not confident of myself and has been used to keep quiet in class,and i'm afraid once i try to start talking my awkward German will get everyone impatient.And i'm finding e new grammars taught this sem a bit hard to understand and memorise also.I'm afraid i'm not going to do well for German 5 this sem.For those who have clashes and couldn't take it this sem,conggratulations!coz u won't have similar probs as i'm facing now. 
    The same situation happens for EG2401 also.Class participation accounts for 20% of the CA and u r supposed to ask qns or give opinions actively and e tutor even recorded down who has spoken by asking us to state our names b4 we start expressing our ideas voluntarily.Omg,i really dun like this kind of forced participation and worse still e topics we discuss r so philosophical which i find it hard to understand.I really have to overcome my personal barrier of not being confident and unable to speak up in discussions.I've to practise speaking English more,which should have been done during e days at NYGH.
    Who can tell me what i should do?I guess i just have to live with it and be gone thru it.Life is not easy after all.How i hope we dun have to study and work,instead lead a carefree life on a remote island and just enjoy life...
