That's where I am right now.  Writing Chinese characters over and over again
on those nice little pieces of paper with the red lines deviding it up in to
perfect little squares so your characters will be the right shape.  That and
writing my 1100 students' names over and over. And trying to remember the
bepemefe for each of the characters.  And now I'm learning to type Chinese.
AAHHHHHHH!  How do little children endure this!  *aside to self* They don't
give a rip, that's how!  They just do what they're told and go on about
their way.
