My understanding of the Japanese language is still amusing. lol. Tomo however has made it his target to master the language by the age of 30. Yes, the big 3-0. I wish I could have had the luxury to not celebrate my birthday. Would have loved to say, that, I chick, was simply too horrified at the number. Such things are wishful thinking.
He truly is a target-boy. I like that. Oh surprise there… I’ve got 4 targets I’m working on. Japanese is not even on my list because you people have to move that island closer before it’s of any practical use for me. On the other hand, let’s not. We know Japan is the plug that keeps the bathwater in. One of my targets is to finish my propedeuse in 8 months instead of 2,5 years or 1 year for a day student.
I’ve been writing a lot of Dutch texts these days and found out how much I hate writing it. The spelling might be correct, the interpunction is ‘so-so’ and has to be checked on over and over, but the real pain in the ass is that I use a lot of Germanisms. Well, some people would say I’m half a German just from where I live anyways. lol. I let my mom read my texts and she’s like: “noes, you is doin it rong!”. Besides that, after 30 years I can’t even find words in Dutch anymore, instead I use the English word. Even in conversation I’m like “random” when I mean “willekeurig”. I think in English, I blog in English, I speak Dutch like a German that’s not refusing to speak English. haha.
I speak English very well, aber nicht so schnell, maar dat komt nog wel.
My obvious goal is to at least survive financially, find myself a better job and finish a freaking degree period without loosing my poor little mind. Some classes I love, some classes i have to take I loath on a level that has no words to really truly describe it. (FUCKING MATH CLASSES! They ruin everything about college. ;.;)
But the language goal now? KOREAN! XD I want to be fully fluent in the language by 27. I turn 26 in May.
I was at work already for almost 5 years at your age. If I could, I would, but this is silence time for me. There will be better times.
hahaha! i saw that goal in Tomo’s nikki. and i also like how he is a goal person. i’d like to be one myself, but lenience is a hobby.
i’ve been taking Japanese classes for a semester now, and you’re right – we can’t put it to good use unless that lil island gets closer to where we are
ah, the diversity of it all. let it be.
oh, and
Feles… been a while for me since i last visited :)
^^ Welcome back. I’m going through a rough time right now, so either it’s really quiet around here and I’m eating myself up or I suddenly spew something, burn it to a crisp and have it magically disappear the day after when I’ve made my point lol. It’ll pass.
