(no subject)
I'm freaking out over final projects because I just realized that all i have left is a month and I am totally not ready. I'm starting to have dreams of an appointment I've got for next week with a professor. I think this is called 'stress.'
Motoko bought my coffee yesterday because I lent her my class notes from the days she was sick. She was like, "THANK YOU!! esp cause it was so girigiri when I asked you for them!", but in Japanese. I really needed the coffee; i was dying.
The language table yesterday was a typo, and all the Japanese teachers were confused.
Mori-sensei said it's fine if I sit in on the class I took last year if I have to (esp since it wouldn't be for credit, and because she remembered I'm in grad school now, so it's not on my transcript anymore); I wonder if maybe we can't do a tutorial instead. I really want to take her reading and context class (just like i did last year), but also like last year, it conflicts with stuff I have to take.
Laundry now, and class today which I won't get out of early.
language exchange is moving into strictly into Japanese mode leading up to the JLPT (which I will fail) and I feel like more and more of an idiot as I forget words or just don't know kanji or, sometimes when I'm really flustered, mess up basic grammar points (we're talking 1st year grammar points. Grammar points I could do in my sleep). But yesterday was fun anyway and we read newspaper articles together and I learned a lot of words and their appropriate contexts.
Somehow tea doesn't taste good after you microwave it.
Dinner last night was nice, both times. Around 4 I met my roommate and we went to tombs. I got the usual, but only ate about 1/6 of it because I'd had a coffee earlier and wasn't hungry. We did run into Bri on the way out though, because apparently, she works there now.
Dinner the second time around was good too. Met up with Tego and James and we went up to a Thai place on Wisconsin (Busara dakke?). The food was excellent and the conversation was appropriate abusive ♥
It's cold, but very pretty out. I don't understand how my roommate and her friends would want to do their homework in the living room with the blinds shut and a light on when it's so incredibly sunny outside.
rec: Kurosagi fic by blood-opal and it's kind of perfect.
