Hot coffee under heavy skies

Gray and rainy mornings fit my mood so well. I’m not sad or anything, but sunshine when I’m stressed just makes me feel inadequate and like I need to be all cheerful when I’m not, or don’t have time to be.
My presentation last night went all right, but I swear to God, my English is never as bad as when I speak in my seminar classes. My fifth grade self was probably more accomplished in oral English. It’s seriously embarrassing. I get so nervous I forget how to pronounce words and sound really fresh off the boat, and then when class is over, I go right back to speaking like a person. It’s not intentional, but I bet some people in my class think I’m doing it to milk foreigner points or something.
