Whew! Finally, I'm out of Stanford and halfway across the world. Cool. Already funny things have been happening, thank god for English speaking waitresses. Alas, I'll make more formal statement later on. For now... let's see how much easier it is to type in English on this janky ass Japanese keyboard

日本へ行ってる！よかった！１１時間に話すの試験があるんだ。頑張ろう！ 

I have a paper to write in 6 hours. And I'm tired. And I just drank a WHOLE bottle of wine by myself.

SHIMATTA!

So I took the Oral Proficiency Exam today. It actually went really well, given that I had Japanese right before then (and in class, she decided to do a review and make us talk as much as possible for a simulated OPI that I'm going to have to take on Monday) and had to switch my mind to Russian. Now, Zhenya and I are like besties, so I spoke to her ( Read more... )

今週先生はラップの試合があると言ってた。人たちが外国語でラップを書いたり、歌ったり、やったりしなくちゃいけない。ちょっと二分間”あ！楽しそう。日本語の歌をしよう”と思ったでも、今、難しすぎるかもしれないと思う。ロシア語なら、歌ができるけど、まだ日本語をよく分からない。今日本語で”電気がついていますが、 ( Read more... )

I saw "Grave of the Fireflies" and "Requiem for a Dream" back to back yesterday. I didn't cry as much as I thought I would, which is really weird. Although after the latter movie, I did feel super effin' antsy and couldn't sit still and felt like I had to run around and do something ( Read more... )
