YOU GET TO GO TO JAPAN TO STUDY?!?!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH

....

but I do understand your concerns with the language, in all honesty it's a fairly difficult language to pick up, but maybe also because I'm old and have less brain cells for learning new things x_X

Glad to see you're still alive! Though.. the knee injury sounds awful, maybe you should go do an x-ray scan just to check and see if anything's up with the joints/bones?

I hope you'll get better soon!

Also also, does this mean you're mugen-edamame on DW too?

ARE YOU EXCITED BECAUSE I'M MOSTLY SCARED.

I'm pretty retarded at languages too. My BM is so slangy it's like a sub-category of the language. Japanese is just a whole 'nother can of worms.

c: I'm doing okay. You're never on Skype though! (I was in Singapore a few weeks back but no one could get a hold of you to tell youuuuu). We've done an X-ray and an MRI, and according to both there's no reason for me to feel pain. But oh, do I feel the pain.

Huh. Bizarre. I thought for sure DW would say where I posted this from. Here's me c:

IT SOUNDS TERRIBLY EXCITING YES, SORRY. BUT ALSO RATHER SCARY, SO I UNDERSTAND.

I usually pick up the basics of a new language a little better than most of my peers in class, but Japanese is just... hard. Slangy-BM? What kind of 'slangy'?

...I am! Well, sometimes! But okay, yes lately I haven't been on Skype as much/lurking because well, work. I tend to be AFK from my desk a lot these days OTL.

Yeah, Demmers did tell me much later that you were asking around for me and that you were down I'M SORRY /o\ ... Where are you now, though?

Huh, that's strange then. I'd seek out a second opinion if that's the case?

Apparently no, it didn't show you posted it from DW. But I've added you already! I'm katamari_jedi on DW c:

GD LJ SWALLOWING MY GD REPLIES.

I'M HOPING THIS PHYSICALLY MAKES ME BRAVER 8'D

No one's been on Skype lately >A< No community lovin' left. And what is AFK??

Right now, I'm back home in Selangor, and with no plans to go back to Singapore any time soon. SO MISSED CHANSU.

>A< Got a second opinion. If all goes well I should be better after a second round of meds in a couple of weeks!

ADDED bb <3

[mugen_edamame]

It's quite an interesting wall of text <3 How's work? Hell, how's life?

>A< It might have something to do with crazy LJ spams-hacks-etc. My e-mail inbox is drowning in spam and it drives me bloody mental. Will add you toot sweet, thank you!

The pre-university will be to get my Japanese to as high a standard as physically possible. Then university, hopefully in Japanese. What a waste otherwise, right? Only I'm spending a lot of time worrying people will be ashamed of me for taking so long to graduate >_>
I've never even been there before so I don't know much about buying stuff, but if you need help picking up something or locating something particularly hard, seriously just drop me a line and I'll do what I can. 'cos bb you leave me perpetually obliged c: Thing is, the muse shows up and does the Tango, then when I'm getting into it the muse runs away at the speed of Light. So I start up stuff I like then can't figure out how to carry on. Which Sucks Balls

[mugen_edamame]

Oh, dear. It's been a week plus, now, so has work gotten better at all? I'm going on a hell of a minimalist diet, because the extra weight's not good for the knees >A< I was under the assumption that everyone on my friends' list were springy antelopey girls. Cold pack? Hot pack?

>A< It took me weeks before I got to the Ems' stories too

ZZZZZOMBIIIIIESSS!!!! And Cross being Cross and Lavi being quite Lavi and Kanda being awesome as always! Convince him to reconsider, Lavi! The world needs more scruffy, dusty Kanda in patched-together survival gear slamming the brakes on a jeep and hopping out with a machete in each hand! And then Kanda finishes making a pile of zombies and gets back in the jeep and Lavi and Kanda putter off into the sunset together bickering all the way =D I've been getting into the whole zombie!fic thing recently, and that was just brilliant! I'm still not sure why zombies are such a Thing and they mostly just bemuse me, but I've found that lots of the fics using the scenario are really awesome =)

Congrats on going to Japan! I'll be waving a banner to cheer you on in your learning of the language! And don't worry about taking longer to graduate; lots of us do =) (It still sucks when people ask about it, though :p) And I hope the doctors figure out what's wrong with your knees soon =( Being in pain really really sucks =(

[mugen_edamame]

HEY HEY lj is really screwing with my replies uAu

I don't understand the recent obsession with zombies, but during the fasting month I tend to get light-headed and therefore bizarre ideas, so I started wondering about the real logistics of how a zombie infection would spread, and how you'd actually survive. Kanda's the sort of guy you'd want to repopulate The World with, amirite c:

>A< Personally I've made my peace with graduating late, but my dad's worried I'll be over the hill in a world full of intelligent young people. Meh. And I got a set of four injections in mah knee recently, and they seem like they've been working wonders! So overall, I'd be a bitch to keep complaining.

<3333 And how have you been bb?
