Stories, experiences, and feelings in this journey of life.
Ok, first, you might want to know how I did in Chapter 1 test. Boom, no, I didn’t get 100% point ☹ My points were deducted .25 because I did not write hiragana for “ki” “correctly” (or maybe the way the teachers wanted me to). You can see the pic. *sigh They look similar, don’t…
Actually I wrote this in Bahasa Indonesia and posted it into my other blog, but I think I want to share it in English, too, because, who knows it can reach more people ^^ But, well, actually I have had this thought since long time ago, but recently this issue rose up again, so I…
When I was starting this blog, I told my friend that I was worried and scared that I’d be famous. He laughed. He thought I was joking and just being conceited. But I was serious, deadly serious. Let me tell you why. The reason I started this blog is because my friends have been noticing…
Did you wonder what I got for my second quiz? Well, I actually got 100 for my second quiz, where I wrote “Mun” instead of “Mon”. Haha I was so happy but it was for a bit because the teacher quickly made a revision and changed it to 90 🙈😂🙈😂 I knew because every time…
Now I want to share my experience of being sick in the States. It was the only time I have ever visited Campus Health Service, my first time visiting a doctor in the US. It happened at the end of my first semester in the US. Around December 2014. It’s not the kind of sickness…
Actually I hesitated to write about this because it involves my experience with the disabled. I don’t want to be considered rude, mean, or inconsiderate. But just for a heads-up, I’m not going to talk something negative about them. Not at all. I just want to share my experience. My apologies if you find some…
This week we had our first quizzes. On Tuesday, A-sensei (that’s the amazing teacher that signed my audit form) kept reminding us that we should do our quiz ourselves. We must not cheat. We must not copy our friends’, must not look at our friends’ answers, must not copy the homework as well. She repeatedly…
Have you ever known someone new in person and you feel comfortable or at least have no problem with him/her? You’re okay with him/her? Then some people tell you “bad things” bout him/her, from their past experience with him/her or what they heard from others. Then you’re worried that you’d face these bad sides of…
Second day of class (basically the first day we really learned Japanese), we started learning Japanese such as useful expression and the letters: there are there kinds, by the way: Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. (But we are not learning Japanese here, so I don’t need to explain it to you 😜) . We use mostly…
This semester I am auditing Japanese 101. Yeah, I know I’ve been talking about my favorite Korean actors, so why Japanese? Why not learning Korean instead? Well, it’s a long story, but in short, I’ve been falling in love with Japan even before I got to know my fav Korean actors. When I was in…
