やったああああ！！！(yatta!)
私のコンピュウタがうれしいです。(watashi no conpyuuta ga ureshii desu.)
0.o umm... that sentence....
Anyways! My computer is happy again. It's converting my typing into kanji again! ^-^
And that's always good!
But, in practicing writing kanji...........
I feel like the more I write it, the worse it looks. D:
Anyways. For some reason I'm hyper today, so if there are a million posts today I'm really sorry! XD

Annoying.
Gaaaaaah!!!!!!!!!! My computer is being weird and not converting what I type in Japanese to kanji!!!!!!!!!!!!!
D:
I'm frustrated as is because the more I try to read Japanese the less I feel I understand! DX
It's not fair!!!

Slacking off?
So, sometimes no matter what I do I can't study worth anything. I think that's how this week has gone... I just can't seem to study at all no matter what I do! I'll look at Japanese, but I have a hard time reading it because I don't know many Kanji yet, so my eyes tend to skim over what I'm trying to read...
I dunno, it's the same way for my schoolwork too. And it's causing some serious sleep deprivation for me. Not good.
Well, I'll try to do better in the coming week! がんばります！！！(ganbarimasu!)

つかれた。。。(tsukareta)
みんなさん、きにょうびです！(minna san, kinyoubi desu)
Even though I only have classes three times a week, I'm tired... (つかれた)
So, I'm very glad that today is my last day of school for this week. ^-^ うれしい！！！(ureshii)
Everyone, please do your best at work or school today and always!
今日はきんようびです。(kyou wa kinyoubi desu)
あの、いまは7:25amです。(ano, ima wa 7:25am desu)
早いです！(hayai desu)
D:
あの、みんなさん、ありがとうございます！(ano, minna san, arigatou gozaimasu)
Thank you for reading, as always.
I'll write again soon, hopefully with more Japanese knowledge to share! ^-^
バイバイ！

ほんとうに (hontouni)
みんなさん、こんにちは！(minna san, konnichiwa)
ごめんなさい。。。あの、さいきんは私がめんどくさい。。。(gomen nasai... ano, saikin wa watashi ga mendokusai...)
I know my 日本語(nihongo) is terrible and I probably messed up that sentence really badly; what I mean to say is, everyone, I'm really sorry that I've been so lazy in posting lately. I thought that I would post more during the summer, but I ended up doing other things and forgetting to study even! So I will do my best to start studying seriously again and posting on here regularly.
Thank you for reading all this. ありがとうございます！(arigatou gozaimasu)
Please support me in the future! おうえんしてね！(ouenshite ne)

日本語の Musings 4
It's interesting how in Japanese, to extend an invitation to someone you must conjugate the verb to the negative form.
I wonder, does it have something to do with lowering yourself to make a request of someone just as in other aspects of Japanese culture?

A List of Words Part 1
Last time I wrote, I talked about different ways to learn vocabulary.
Well, I was working on vocabulary myself the other day, and I made a huge list of words that I'm going to look up to help improve my vocab. Some of the words I already know, some I've learned before and don't know fully yet, and some I don't know at all.
Heavy, ceiling, window, music, sound, sing, dance, video, Internet, computer, type, dresser, closet, room, home, house, bookshelf, study school, desk, chair, rain, umbrella, books, read, stuffed animals, pillow, blanket, carpet, rug, paper, pencil, pen, notebook, floor, Bible, box, storage, organize, mail, letter, files, wings, lamp, ruler, measuring tape, fabric, clothes, sewing, cut, pattern, nails, nail polish, glitter, fingernails, finger, hand, front, back, palm, arm, shoulder, elbow, fore arm, chest, stomach, neck, collar bone, chin, cheeks, ears, mouth, teeth, nose, snot (eww...), eyes, eyebrows, forehead, hair, head, face, back, legs, knees, feet, toes, toenails, bottom, sit, stand, walk, jump, run, spin, fall, lay, sleep, make, cook, hold, held, hide, seek, tag, find, look, search, cry, laugh, smile, frown, happy, sad, excited, upset, folder, plastic, truth, lie, socks, tights, skirt, pants, jeans, underwear, shirt, blouse, dress, jacket, cardigan, coat, necklace, bracelet, earrings, stickers, makeup, eat, drink, liquid, solid, gas, air, sky, clouds, weather, leaves, trees, bushes, grass, branches, ground, building, road, grow, mailbox, fence, discover, river, creek, lake, stream, ocean, boat, swim, rope, float, swimming suit, novel, soak, salt, pepper, fruit, vegetables, meat, kids, boy, girl, play, toys, nursery, snack, lesson, color, coloring page, crayon, colored pencil, marker, art, draw, create, absorb, sponge, clean, tidy, kitchen, shelf, stove, microwave, oven, refrigerator, dust, dirty, stuff, storage, table, messy, covered, uncovered, over, under, spoon, fork, knife, plate, bowl, cup, thirsty, hungry, tired, exhausted, pigtails, ponytail, hair (a repeat), braid, cute, cool, accessory, language, speak, learn, new, old, many, few, clip, zip, zipper, close, open, elastic, ruffle, shorts, skort (mix of skirt and shorts. doubt there's a Japanese word for it...), drive, go, explore, leave, come, contain, pin, scissors, snip, write
Told you it was a huge list. Anyways, over the next few posts, I'm going to put the Japanese versions of these words. Maybe it will help some people! I really don't know, but if I can help others, that would be great!
Bye for now!
Just a note, I think it's funny to trace my train of thought with the list. It reminds me of my Psychology class that I took in the first semester of college. ^-^
