Minna-san,

Tadaima... because I haven't wrote here for a while. Now I became to miss it, so here I am :)

お元気ですか。私は元気です。
It was quite the only thing I could write in Japanese a few months ago.
Now there is a language camp and an intensive course behind me, and I feel like I leveled up :) It's such a wonderful feeling to be able to understand more and more things in Japanese. Although it's still hard to make sentences, it makes me happy to just understand normal sentences. Now I believe in myself, and dare to watch dorama without English subs, even if I don't get 80% of it. It is fun to be able to catch some lines and understand them.

This December, our first exam will take place. I would like to do it. At first I didn't... because
1. I hate exams
2. I really hate exams
3. and I thought it doesn't mean anything, it's just a piece of paper, that says "yeah, you can read Japanese, and so what?".
But then I thought it would be so nice to be able to say, I'm 4kyuu and you? Then next year to say, How are you, I'm fine 3kyuu. (lol...)
So to be frank, now I would like to do the exam, and do it well to prove that I study Japanese for half a year now and for a reason.
So Nyekk-san, がんばりましょうぅぅぅ。。。

School has started, and I had to face the reality, I haven't got much class... so at the end it turned out I have like one class per day. What to do with the left of the day? I turned myself into "hw mizu mode", which means hardworking. So I'll get myself together for this semester's exams (and the same goes for the JLPT4 exam). Already learning for them.

But life would be boring without doramas, so I've been watching them still :)))
Here are the ones I've watched lately (movies too... sorryyyyyyy, long list):
last friends, dekichatta kekkon, suppli, the prince of tennis, zettai kareshi, taiyou no uta, liar game, grapevine, kanojo to no tadashii asobikata, ruri no shima, calling you, cinderella ni naritai, juken no kamisama, shindo, honey and clover, how to become myself, virgin snow, summer snow.

Yeah.. you can now officially call me the dorama-watching-monster.. hm, DWM... why is it so familiar to me? Isn't this word "DWM" is from my most hated class????? Nyekk, please tell me later.

About my life at the rest of summer:
I had the best summer of my life. I met with M from Korea and her friends, and had a jolly good time together (I'll cherish this day). I went to the summer camp which I really enjoyed and would never skip the next one. Also, in the camp I made a new friend H (*) - uhm, well, since Nyekk already wrote down her nickname - Hikaru, and my friendship with Padi got stronger I think. So I really enjoyed this summer :)

* well... I usually refer to people with their first name's first letter.. since I don't have permission to talk about them in this blog, and I think it's good in this way, but if you think it's okey to write down your name (just first one), tell me :)

Gadget-wise: I still got the eee pc (wow.. long time gadget lol), and bought a Casio Japanese-English electronic dictionary, which is really useful :)

A little bunny got into my life. She is black with a small white spot on her forehead. Her name is Coffee (or Kohii). She already changed my life, since she wants me to get up at about half past 5 and chewed on my Internet cable. So I learned how to fix a chewed Internet cable and succeded. Also I think I leveled up, and now I'm level 3 at caring about my bunny. That's because I can make her stay on my laps for more than 15 minutes and she comes to me when I call her... well.. at that time my dog also comes to me, but nevermind.

Woh... sorry for the long and boring post ^^;;;;
Actually I've reread my promises for 2008, and I think I mostly achieved them. But I wrote I'd post here more often, so I really want to do it :) Hopefully, from now on I'll post smaller things and more often.

Take care, and thanks for reading it till the end ^^;;;;
