愛．おぼえでいますか ^ ^

I was looking through the lyrics of this classic song from the anime Macross...(LYRICS: romaji, english, kanji - http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/macrossdyrl/aioboete.htm)....a lot of the words/phrases (verb tenses...today...tomrw...yesterday...etc) are actually really relevant to the recent lessons. LOL.

Enjoy...

Yesterday I went to a large group garage sale near my home. There were two nice Japanese ladies selling miscellaneous household items. The first time I wandered by their stand they gave me a picture frame for free (it's in my dorm right now), and then I told them that I'm taking Japanese right now and we began a conversation in Japanese. I felt accomplished.

Why Japanese~? :\

I chose to study Japanese because I really enjoy reading Japanese literature and watching Japanese dramas, animes, and the like. It'd be nice if I could read and watch these things in their most original form as opposed to translated version. First-year Japanese is my favorite class so far so I'm really excited about coming to class everyday. Woot. Nothing has been particularly difficult so far...It has been only two weeks...I'm looking forward to the challenge. :)
