So many questions!
Aside from sleeping in when I can and the mall, nothing much happening 'round here. I've been commanded to sign up for Deal or No Deal in January, however. calliechan, can I add you to my supporter list? I need a third person to scream and cheer me on and throw things at Howie when he makes fun of me. :) Next week I start job #2. I'm kinda excited, but right now all I'm thinking is YARGH. HMV is already tough with rude buttholes and moving 300 CD's from one part of the store to the other, only to be told I have to move them back. >.< I guess as long as I don't have to lug sixty cases of wine everywhere and no one spits in my face for getting carded, I'll be happy.
Last night I went to a dinner party for a bunch of TIFF people, and it was off the hook. Hopefully Intern #2 will send me a picture of the sign in her bathroom (long story). Here's what I contributed:
Maybe I should start an online bakery. XD Which reminds me, I have to look into getting my own website to start a gaijin journal come March.
Is there a place I can get an OFFICIAL guide of what I need to study for the JLPT 4 test? I'm not taking it, because I'm kinda poor and busy with work and a slew of other things, but I'm pretending to study for it because it will really give me a kick to bone up on the language. I really need to get the hang of reading and speaking - I refuse to be lumped into the category of lone-gaijins-who-come-to-Japan-and-expect-everything-to-be-handed-to-them-on-a-silver-English-platter. I'm different! I want to belong! I'm not just going to sleep with my students and throw up on the random サラリーマン who harass me in English when I'm clearly minding my own business. I actually want to get something cool from this experience aside from my plans for Mount Fuji. I pwomise!
Allrighty, I really should hit the books before this damn staff meeting tonight. Have I already said yargh? I'll say it again. Yargh.
Final note: Zee, Sarah, tell me your exam schedule as soon as you get it. I've decided to throw that HP fest/Christmas party I've been aching to have for years, complete with cloaks, movies and two kinds of butterbeer. Consider it MANDATORY. *temples fingers*
