Lately I feel like all my posts have been about some crazy Japanese kid that is driving me up the wall. So today I’ll skip that description and tell you about other stuff going on these days.
This month I’m hoping to send off my application for graduate school. I’m a little worried about my chances of getting accepted. It’s no easy thing, but since it is with a university in Australia it is a little easier than going through the ritual in the United States. I’d like to work on a degree while living in Japan, so that limits my options significantly. Luckily I found a program that will work with my schedule.
Japanese study is progressing slowly. My new goal is to spend more time reading every day. I’d like to watch more TV every day, too. I’ve been focusing on vocab for a long time, and I think it’s time to put it into action.
Finally, although the weather was nice enough when I left for work today it was pouring when I came home. The weather should stay wet for the next couple of days, so I’ll be walking to and from work in the rain. Ugh.
Kuniko should be home in an hour or so, and I’m cooking some easy (and healthy) somen noodles and tofu on the side. It’ll be a late dinner tonight and I don’t want to eat a big greasy dinner and then go right to bed. Listen to Mr. Health Conscious over here.
