Upsetting for a Japanese Learner

-____- <<<< That's my face for when I found out that Genki was updated!


I'm just relieved i didn't buy volume 2 D: I see the difference in the updates xD
So I've decided to put my studying on hiatus

The Japanese study that is, now I will work on my Chinese and Korean studies :P With probably a slight touch of indonesian XD
Yes yes, I'm still studying spanish o:
I have to do a major review though ~_~
That's what i'll be doing tonight making the time fly baby :]


wtf! Something just bit me on the back of my neck, so not sexy and it hurts a lot D;


That's all , I hope that so many of you japanese learners did not have to go through this and you were wise to just rent the book lol, well now you can buy it so pay up XD haha.

The flashcards/picture cards are not necessary and if ur a self taught learner you do not need to buy the workbook too. However if you're an OA (overachiever) like moi, GET IT. It's a fun book ^_^


GENKI I includes a Textbook and Workbook
GENKI II has been released but so far only jbox has it up on the net the other online sellers are still catching up
and then there's the Answer Key which includes the answers for Both the textbook and workbook of Volumes 1 & 2.

Textbook Most Common Price $58.90
Workboook Most Common Price $26.80
Answer Key Most Common Price $12.60

p.s. the cds are new included with the books, awesome right? so we save money now!

I'm pretty darn sure I scared everyone in the car xD
But the main problem is I needed to adjust my sheet back -_- but I was afraid because that dude was behind me, he was kinda cute , if I broke his nose he would of been cute >.>

He only spoke Spanish though (puff face)

missed true blood three times -.-

The first day it was ok rain D:
then the night of it was heavy the power went out around 3am ;A;
and because I was scared , (of una araña) I didn't charge my phone or laptop -______-

So there was no studying done for me or nothing ;_;

Which in hand led me to reading all of the books i rented from the library or at least until I ran out of day light

The power was supposed to be back on by 9 ha! not at all -__-

But Saturday Sunday is a blur to me anyway rofl


xD power comes back on at 5am sunday wooo

but still trying to get into Hbo Go was a pain
Now I know what I need to get in to it but it's still useless to me :/

True Blood is the only show I knowingly Like from Hbo

Though I did catch the reruns on Monday <3 yahs!

At least something decides to work around here

Well I'm off to study japanese ^.^

Hectic on Numbero Dos NAZE?!

Ok so today I started my second day, woah, so many people were ignorant and arrogant just because I was in a that car.

It was ticking me off at first then I just realized nice weather brings out all the fools. Both of us (the instructor and me) agreed that yesterday was a better day.

They were trying to bully me to speed 10-20 miles higher than the speed limit, just because you ride my bummer it doesn't mean i will drive fast -blocks them from passing by me- >3> jajajja XD pay back beyatch

I pity the fool that drives against the law

I also realized she told me not to go fast around the corners for a reason, To always reduce speed because that's a speed trap and instant ticket.

I was so happy to be done driving :]
went to a few townships yah! 
Mía I really like that word lol

Well time for me to finish so I can go again in the morning xP

Oyasu!

Just started on day one :] It was bilingual lol

This was awesome^^
I was worried I was going to be late for my first day
because mi madre kept getting in my way -3-
Like cock blocking but it covers more teran lol.

So I made it on time thinking my instructor was late It was 230
not 2.00 >.>

I had a lovely time with my instructor as we conversed back and forth in spanish
Her complimenting me on my skills, Perfect on the first time ;D
Man I felt like I was playing pokémon lol.

Talked about College, Children, School, Relationships

Saying how many times she traveled, her Puerto Rican hubby <3 Myreow ~

She said well maybe when you get to college you'll get a Japanese Boyfriend who will stay
"Christi!" "Christi!"
I said well either that or a Puerto Rican one
She said Ooo You like PuertoRican Puerttorricano  , It's a good thing you speak spanish
I simply agreed
Finally I said what I wanted to for the past 20 mins
ww, on telling her about my ex, she said yeah, they're crazy muy loco mostly 90% of them always crazy.

She said I was a very smart girl and I'll go very far in life . As well as travels. I was always likeable because I was a fast learner



 Learned the road quickly I even drove home

Oh Yeah Bebé~

Before the downpour started

I ran inside, Plish Splash in my nikes GRRSS


Oh well after that it was Fuze PomAcai

Thanks Rae for the Fantastico Icons! I'll get you some more ;D

What a Day Bilingual Experience - Spanish/Español - Re-Up

This is a re-posting of yesterday's experience but with more detail ....


Today I asked a mother of 3 children if she was raising her children to be Bilingual
I was hesitant at first since I don't like to talk to strangers
Stranger Danger lmfao. Ah, school keke.

She told me that her family speaks all spanish and her husband's family speaks all english.
it's a bit tricky but the youngest is learning now, he knows how to speak a few words in Spanish
He was so adorable
If he hadn't dropped his bottle by my foot I would have never finally mustered up that bit of courage to ask her that question at the forefront of my mind.

At first I wanted to ask the father since he kept talking to me
(He threatened me because of my dental health... I haven't been to the dentist since I was 14! lol )

He was shy to say the words his mother had told him to speak >.< Thinking while watching him made me say to myself,

Hey.. I should be speaking Spanish to them directly not engrish ajajjaja.

So I start thinking about Agua and the Tabel which I can only remember in Japanese -____- KUSO! Like that's gonna help me lol


So what I came up with in my head was

Mi Agua es Muy Calliete My water is very hot
Which it was , Couldn't say my water is on the table

So she's encouraging her son to still say to me Agua
Bebe(su) Mamá : Agua , say agua

Still in my head I'm going Su Agua, Mi Agua.
He had to be no older that 1 or 2 <3

So precious

I was really happy to talk about Spanish with her, this was the first time I ever spoken by choice about languages and of myself. In the back of my mind I would love to Marry a man from a different country who was raised properly by his mother , had the right surroundings , the mindset and was a man of his own words not one to do what the crowd say. Would be so happy to finally meet a man of such great stature. Yes world I have aspirations of love as well. Cursive hormones.


Gracias <3
