JLPT - Done and done.
Finished the JLPT 2 this afternoon. I'm so glad to have taken it. We'll find out more after the scores are sent out in February 2012. Yeah, baby. -
Just a thought...
I hope that everyone's lives are going well. That is all!
Night night! ♥ -
やっと仕事が手に入りました！ Finally got some (somewhat fun!) work!
I know what you're thinking: What am I doing up at this time of morning? Me, who usually detests early morning anything, save for early morning naps? Well, my body's adjusting to my new wake-up time for the work week, that's why. From last Monday, I've been working in the Personalization Department of the Williams Sonoma Distribution Center a scant ( Read more... ) -
Whew!
Hi, there! I wanted to write something while it was still July. As you can guess, I'm pretty terrible about keeping up with "me" some months. A lot has been going on in July for sure, and I'm happy for the business ( Read more... ) -
Still ticking.
Hey, there! This'll be really short. I'm alive and hanging in there. I still don't have any income, but I'm hoping for the best. I'm also studying (how to read kanji, at least) somewhat frequently and doing my daily quizzes. I can't seem to focus enough at home to do as much writing practice as I used to, though, and that's the main way I'll be ( Read more... ) -

Whew! It's been a while, hasn't it? I've been moseying along life's winding road. I had a spell of Japanese study inspiration for about two weeks, and now it's cooled off. So while I'm not studying Japanese every day for as long as I did previously (two to three hours), I am managing to complete reading and writing quizzes on the Kanji Kentei DS ( Read more... ) -
Sagashimono. (Searching for...something.)
Well, just for the heck of it, let me see if there's anything going on with me. Mmm... I just finished up another Photoshop course (the third--this time, it was called, "Creating Web Graphics for PS CS3"), and am taking a break from online classes for a few weeks. I'll probably hop aboard again around the third week of April. I've run out of ( Read more... ) -
Grr and Garwsh!
Aw, man. Tanaka Mayumi is coming to the West Coast (SakuraCon in Seattle, WA) on Easter weekend, April 2nd - 4th! Soo exciting to even think about her stepping on US soil and sharing her special brand of happiness with the convention goers. I can't go to see her (too bad I didn't think about this a few months ago and plan and stuff!), but I can ( Read more... ) -
Working hard, but not as anxious as I could be.
I've been working on another project this last week and a half or so. Okay, two projects. The first one is a gift to the graduating seniors at my two junior high schools (and note and three personalized pencils--thank you for cheap prices ForTeachersOnly.com!--and some general stationery stuff like mini-notepads/markers from the dollar store). I'm ( Read more... ) -
Hmm.
Well, the test date of the JLPT came and went. Good luck to everyone who sat the exam. For some reason, the Saturday before the test date, I got serious about studying kanji. Go figure! I searched around for hours and eventually stumbled upon this site. It's called "Kanji Damage", and though the author uses a gratuitous amount of profanity, his ( Read more... )
