FUCK YOU WORLD.

Today's been one of those days that you just want to get over with.

First, I went out of home only to discover that some asshole had practically teared my car's left mirror in between yesterday and this morning. So I only taped it with my trusted maskin tape, and fuck, but I'd already broken my right mirror before (that one was my fault, though), and now it'll look patched up on both sides. FUCK.

Then. Japanese class went... Badly. Basically, I'm up to taking the yonkyuu exam this december (the lowest of the required exams to be accredited, the next one's the sankyuu and on and on), although I'd had my doubts before. BUT, I had class with a new teacher, and he speaks EVERYTHING in Japanese. And I do mean EVERYTHING. So I was just like 'Go, Ale, you can do it. Just nod and smile.' and it was horrible to only grasp like, a single word from an entire sentence. And what's worse? My new classmates are all two or three semesters up from me, so I'm like 'WTF?' and they're like, totally having a conversation with the teacher (and it doesn't help that they've both actually been in Japan). So that was lousy, and Lira, my Japanese buddy, didn't even show up (it would've been nice to be 'wtf' together...), and she was supposed to get me back the movies I lent her before summer holidays. Then on the last two hours, we had a written exam, a 'sample' of the yonkyuu, and from 47 questions, I had fucking THIRTY mistakes. 30. It was horribly depressing.

The only good part of the entire deal is that I'm back in the same group with a guy I'd had somewhat of a crush on before he left for Canada last semester. And well, he's still more advance than I am, but we're at least somewhat close in knowledge. I'll start taking my Japanese notes to school or something, because I need to catch up, and I need to do so fast.

The day didn't get better until I got home and my dad started to make impromptu crépes. Oh, and I watched I ♥ Huckabees. It's good, if somewhat confusing.

Now I'll just go and curl into a curner and watch both of the newly subbed Ergo Proxy episodes to get me out of my misery.

EDIT: My dad is baking a chocolate-chip cake. They day might not be a complete loss after all.

Two years. but it was useless, because I couldn't understand a word for three entire months -- excpet during lessons, of course.
But in real life! *lol* that was difficult.

Hehe, that's my case, then - I've also been studying for two years. *sigh* How did you get by?

Well, that wasn't that difficul twhen going to the supermarket or the post office,. However, when I wanted to speak with some friends, it was quite frustrating not being able to express myself as I wanted to (even if your friends kept telling you how good you're at Japanese. *g*).

You may know that the Japanese think that if a stranger can speak their mother tongue, this is *damn* impressive. *lol*
At least that's how I felt it. :))

It's be so great if you could there. Every single day is a new discovery! :)
