OMG HOW LONG AS IT BEEN SINCE MY LAST POST?!?!?!?!?!
the answer is way too long orz
but with the new month (happy april fool's!) comes new updates :D i've redone my profile page to make it up to date, and i've added all the other social media i'm on so you guys know where to find me if you miss me too much :P
as i wrote on the profile page, i'm going to try and keep this as a journal. so many people have moved onto other media i can't really justify posting about fandom and all when no one is reading, and to be honest, i catch up with LJ these days to check ______theydidnt communities and personal journals more than anything else.
so what have i been up to? WORK @_____@;; i've been swamped with work lately, the biology classes have been wanting so much stuff from the butchers (you know, hearts, lungs etc) i've just been moving my schedule around to fit them. there's also new teachers coming in, old teachers leaving, stuff to throw away, stuff to buy more of.. it's just hectic! luckily (?), my side jobs are settling down so i do have some free time to just relax at home :)
despite my depressing last post, things have been fine with kaze ♥ it seems like we both have a weird communication problem: he's not good at expressing thoughts, and i'm not good at expressing thoughts directly to people. we're working on it so hopefully there'll be less depressing posts! today is actually our third aniversary! ♥ it's the first time we've spent it apart (i flew over last easter), and possibly more to come if i stay on my current job (the holiday situation around easter is horrendous i don't understand how did the admin team think it'll work).
BUT the good (?) thing is that i'm most likely not going to continue my contract with my current job. there was a few things i didn't like about the school, and my sleeping habits make working in a school a very hard job... anyway! i'm most likely going to continue studying! *confetti* \(^^)/ i haven't decided on what to study yet, but i'm looking into the more social side for the time being. so things like science communication (HG job btw!), teaching, translating etc... yes i don't like school hours yet i'm looking into teaching. yes i am a hypocrite i know. i haven't decided exactly which unis and stuff to apply and there's the whole problem of family, but at least i have a short term goal!
on a slight tangent, I PASSED JLPT N1!!! \(^^)/ *major confetti time* in the "i got 100/180 when the pass mark was 100/180" way. i was in a terrible state on the day of the test, and i honestly thought i'd fail so i'm happy with it :) i might retake it just because all my other JLPTs were in the 80% region (i got ~55% for N1), but i'm not in a hurry :) with japanese out of the way, i'm thinking of taking up another language! my rough plan at the moment is french from july (when i finish my japanese course), and german from september :) it's going to be hectic learning the two together and it really depends if i can find the money for it, but i think it'll be great fun to meet more people that way :)
okay i think i've said all that's happened these few months... hopefully i can make weekly posts, if not i'll definitely make monthly ones! :)
