When I was in high school I had a weird biology teacher that said "Happy V.D." to everyone on Valentine's Day, and for some reason I still remember it. So, Happy V.D. everyone! I'm celebrating by going to see Spike & Mike's Sick & Twisted Festival of Animation later on, but I was a good boy and sent my parents some flowers, too. Mom & Dad always send me a card for every possible holiday, so I also got some Valentine gift money, which I spent ordering some new Mini PEZ from Japan! I've started re-studying my old Japanese textbook from my classes at Austin Community College, and it's been pretty easy so far. It's pretty cool going over lessons and concepts that completely freaked me out when I was in class, and now they totally make sense! I guess that's a pretty good way to see some progress, even though I still feel like it's taking forever to feel comfortable speaking. My tutor Kazki has more students now, so I'm glad I was one of his first students to get the ball rolling - I'm determined to keep studying Japanese until we can talk fairly easily! He's making me take notes in hiragana again, too, which is great since I was starting to forget how to write. I'm hoping to start a Japanese sub-blog soon (mainly for my own practice)!
