10 reasons why I love Japanese.

1. Particles. These are the hardest, weirdest, most confusing part of Japanese, and it just so happens that I am awesome at them. Comes completely naturally. I can figure out when to use 'wa' or 'ga,' 'de' or 'ni,' 'kara,' 'ka,' 'e,' 'no,' 'mo,' 'ne,' 'yo,' and 'wo.' Yay Japanese and to a lesser extent yay me.

2. Verb endings. No "o, es, e, emos, eis, or en." That's all just "masu." Past tense is "mashita." negative is "masen," and past negative is "masendeshita." potential mood has its own verb ending, as does preferative mood. No screwing around with "to do," either. Either a verb has "to do (suru)" it or not, and it stays that way. Just conjugate the "suru" and leave the other part. Or never use "suru" with it at all.

3. Because nobody else does.

4.... Ah, other things have come to occupy me.

Not deep

No emotion-baring today. I haven't got a whole lot to bare. So, yeah.

It's friday. Hooray.

I have to go to school tomorrow for Tech, but it's not as bad as *last* saturday, which was solo & ensemble for choir. Everybody there will have signed up to be there. So yeah. Less theft issues. More accomplishments. And I get to go home at noon. So, yeah.

I did my theater arts monologue yesterday. I got a 41 out of 50. Again. That's what I got on the last monologue. But, I did better on memorization and character. I just kind of bombed volume. It evened out.

Took the chem test today. Wasn't too bad. Neither was the vocab test, but they never are bad.

Jeez. I really have nothing to talk about.

The happy lives on

Well, the good mood has maintained itself. Huzzah, glory be to god and peace on earth, et cetera.

I've gotten to the point where because of solo and ensamble, I've resigned myself to having not much of a weekend... I have to be there at 7am, and I probably won't get back until 4 or 5. At least I've got variety throughout the week, I guess.

Our ensamble isn't too bad, now that we changed songs for the second time and are now singing one we already knew because Hauan *made* us learn it for the winter concert. So, it's a little cheap, but maybe we've got a shot now. We sound... decent... and we now have an accompanyist (who, by the way, said I sounded good), so I guess it's wrapping up. The climax was sometime earlier in the week, though. All that's left is performing it. Maybe I'm just screwed up, cause I'm never really nervous before a performance.

Went to chris's and watched boure supremacy last night. Pretty cool movie.
I still suck at soul caliber.

So, now it's at least classless for a couple days. I'm in the mindset that it'll all be over soon, but the thing is it won't be. We don't even get any sort of days off until spring break. March 20. Hmm. whatever.

Yeah, I'm done.
