Back to School

Notebooks ~ CHECK


Backpack ~ CHECK


Pens that look really cool but you know you are going to lose them in a week and go back to the plain old black and white BIC pens ~ CHECK!


Yes it's that time again. And it was actually good this time becuase for once I was shopping for supplies the same time everybody else was. So everything was on sale.

Having to do several other subjects in Japan, I didnt really get to attend all the Japanese language classes that I wanted to. So I will try and take as many German classes as I can.

This term: Elementary German and Western Civilization. I have to select from a list of classes and both meet the criteria for at least a certificate in German studies. The former hopefully will springboard me into more advanced language classes. We had our first one last night and was just the introductory part but we did tackle the first lesson and it went rather well. It seems easier than Japanese, but still difficult especially when most of the letters have different sounds thn they do in English. Before too long I should be comfortable at least to go downtown and get around ok. Hopefully, sooner than later...

For now, AUF WIEDERSEHEN !!!!!
