Jul. 29th, 2008 11:21 pmMan, I fail at LJ. Still alive, though!!
Um, uni is great. On the first day of class I just couldn't stop smiling, I was so happy to be hearing Japanese from a non-electronic source again. That pure joy only lasted until partway through the second lecture, when we had to pair up and do a speaking exercise, at which point my stomach dropped straight to my toes. It wasn't that bad though, I survived, and we've had to do a few more of these things since then so I'm getting used to it.
We had a vocab and kanji quiz last Tuesday, and I got 15/15 and a smiley-face stamp :D I felt like myself again after 3 1/2 years!
There's an assignment due on Thursday, but I'm almost done, none of this last-minute crap this time around. Not yet, anyway.
I'm still working 32 hours a week, so I'm a little bit exhausted. Thursday and Sunday are my days off so I don't get a proper weekend :(
Plus I've suddenly somehow become multi-fannish, something I'd never managed before. Always when I came across a new fandom I'd throw myself at it and ignore the old ones, but in the last 2 weeks I've read fic/doujinshi in Tenipuri, Hikago, Code Geass, Gintama, J-Pop, and Bandom. Oh, and that one Iron Man fic. Plus I finished an actual novel for the first time in ages.
I'd better go to bed, I'm trying to get my sleep patterns back to normal after staying awake way too late all last week. jya, oyasumi!
