1)I've been busy studying for finals this week. I'm having hard time focusing. :( I think I'm just at the point where I'm really burnt out from school and I just can't take in anymore information. I'm able to focus for couple minutes than after my mind wonders elsewhere. I don't know how picked up ADD in past week, lol. My finals are next week. I have two on Tuesday and one on Wednesday. Then I get about a week and half off for spring break!! I hope my finals will go well. I'm just very concerned about my studying. I hope my attention span will recover soon..
2)I still haven't seen Hanadan episode 10!I think this is longest I've ever gone without seeing it. I'm surprised I didn't cave in yet. :) I think it's mostly because I'll have to accept the fact that it will end and that I have to see Umi. I've been reading lots of behind the scenes stuff and some cast interviews. I really love the whole cast and they all are so funny together. I'm still hoping for a Hanadan 3 even though it wouldn't show up until November 2009. I've read some good news, before Oguri Shun said he was very much against another sequel but today he said that it would be interesting to see one of the F4 members as business leader(I hope Rui!). I would still love to see him in his first lead role though. :) Well, my master plan is to save episode 10 and watch it with 11 after I'm done with finals. Hopefully, I'll be strong enough. :) I'm really going to miss Hanadan. It's the first time I've seen a drama as it was just released and it was so exciting to be squeeing with everyone. There are so many new dramas to look forward to though such as The Devil (21st!!)and I want to see MatsuJun's food drama Bambino! too. :) When did my life start to revolve around dramas? lol ^^
3)I don't know why i didn't think of this before but they have language learning podcasts! I found a really good Japanese one and an okay Korean one. They are pretty short so I'm thinking of listening to them while I walk to class. :) I've listened to first podcast for each and I realized that I have just picked up a lot from just watching dramas. :) Hopefully I won't get lazy listening to them and practicing. :) I would love to take a course in Korean at school but I really can't fit it in. I don't think my family be too happy about it either. I'm sure they would yell at me for wasting money. Especially now that I just found out they are raising tuition by 7%. It's already $23,000. :( It's even worst for graduate schools, they plan to raise it up to 10%. I'm planning on going to graduate school too so the double bad news.
4)Housing update: I think I mentioned before that I was really worried about being homeless next year. Tramy asked me the other day to live with her and her friend next year. We are in bit of a rush to find an apartment since you have to find one by end of this quarter for next year. I'm meeting her friend tomorrow and hopefully we click(eh, i can't think of another word). I get nervous when meeting new people so I hope I will come off alright. I'm just mostly worried about finding a place. They are going apartment hunting on tomorrow and I hope it goes well. I wish I could come along but I have class plus lots of studying.
I think I probably won't update until after finals(unless I cave in and watch Hanadan and start squeeing ^^) so I hope everyone will have a great weekend! :)
