Finally, I can blog some again! I had to buy a new laptop and have been installing stuff and getting things in order. I think I’m all set now.
今、午後一時にです。く時からじゅうに時までにほんごのべんきょうおしました。今、写真をみせます。
Frustration
Posted in Uncategorized on February 21, 2008 | 5 Comments »
I just did the second of this week’s 3 tests.
Lots of kanji, but I got all of them right. And then… particles! Horror! Of course, I made several mistakes. It is soooo frustrating. I read and read and read about particles, and still I can’t get them quite right. Of course, it doesn’t [...]
Stress, stress and more stress

I LOVE the Japanese language. I love studying it, speaking it, learning new words – I love everything about it… except for particles.
Particles: my enemy number one right now. Sigh.
Will I ever get the hang of it?

Ok. Deep breath, and [...]

Photos from the grocery store, and new pets
Posted in Uncategorized on February 19, 2008 | 2 Comments »
When I’m in a foreign country, one of my favorite things to do is to go grocery shopping. It’s so interesting to see everyday items – what people buy/eat/drink, what the boxes/containers look like, the names of different things and so on.
You might not think that’s interesting or fun at all, maybe you’ll just think [...]
A letter in Japanese, and some photos
Posted in Uncategorized on February 16, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I wrote a letter and then tried to translate it into Japanese. Some of it was beyond what we’ve gone over in class, so I had to look things up and try to get it right. Lots of fun, but I’m sure at least half of it is very incorrect.

Peek-a-boo

Just wanted to pop in and say that I’m still around. Just very busy with Japanese books, tests, words and so on.
Jâ mata!
Winter is definitely here

This is in our garden.
This is the road beneath our house. In the far back there, there’s a big hill (or [...]
