Yippie! It's April! That means only a few more weeks till ACEN, I can hardly wait!

:: gets all bouncy ::

I'm hoping that the pain really goes down so I can thourghly enjoy the weekend. Though with the way things have been going lately I just want the pain to be low enough for me to get through the day comfortably.

Anywho... Got the April issue of NewtypeUSA in the mail today. I'm not sure what's going on with the company. I've sent them the entire subscription amount back in October and have only recieved two issues to date, this months and December's. I've contact the company and they claim that the card I put it on was maxed out...which is impossible because the card that I used for the order is my debit/credit card which draws money directly from my bank account. To top it all off a few weeks ago they sent me a bill for $189 and a handful of change. Oii...

In other news, though the progress is slow I am seeing progress as far as learning Japanese is going. I can now ask my Dad where is the cat and then point the cat out and say there it is. I can also count to 10 and a few other numbers, and can answer questions in a crossword without looking in the book (I photocopied the crossword for more practice). All in all I say that's a pretty darn good thing. I was quite pleased with myself when I went the Mitsuwa the other day and recognized some of the words that were spoken and not because I'd learned them off an anime. What I'd really like though is a personal tutor. When I get a class situation I just clam up and don't say anything because I get to scared.

Gotta run...think I'll take a warm bath to relax the muscles before bed.

"Neko wa doko desu ka?"

According to my book.... In return I'm supposed to say "Neko wa soko desu."

So! "Ie wa doko desu ka?"

Now off to find migraine meds.

No I was just shooting from memory on the phrasing I said it correctly when speaking if you wanted to know :P

"Ressha wa itsu kimasu ka?"

Now! Try that without internet translation goodies. Or Mippa's help.

Hey I am just a beginner like you. Except I haven't touched my japanese cd-roms in like a year or more.

I'm using a work book at the moment, I rather like it. It's 11:30pm so its to late to talk now but we still need to do so. For instance, how do you know that I physically can't preform said duties if you've never told me what the duties are. I really really hate when people assume what I'm capable of doing all because of the RSD.

Now I'm off to enjoy my favorite cannon gay Marvel couple. Mmmm....Billy and Teddy.... :: drool ::

Sweet! What are you going as?

Got any ideas for whats hip in costumes right now for a guy?

I'm wearing my Hufflepuff uniform because I was unable to get a hold of someone who could make me a Kagura Sohma costume. I would have done it myself but I don't sew I knit.

As far as guys go... Well Full Metal Panic or Full Metal Alchemist would be good. Gundam always works as well, Dragonball Z or Saiyuki isn't bad either. Your cutting it close though... Acen is in exactly one month.
