あと191にち
早いね、もう２００にち以下って。
ソニー・エリクソンの新卒採用エントリーしました。全部日本語でまだ書きかけたの間々。今晩で終わらせます。メールの友達はいつも返事が早いのですが、あたしのほうが遅すぎる。（ｖ＿ｖ）
I’m trying to apply for SE, but everything’s in Japanese, I’m a bit overwhelmed. I hope I didn’t write anything wrong. The chance are probably lower than applying here, but it’s Japan, I’ll try whatever I can try.
I’m trying to get AJATT sentences from dorama. I’m trying with Honey and Clover. I’m just at 10 minutes, but they’re talking so fast that I had to repeat some to really hear each words specifically. Some of the script is in here: http://www.dramanote.com/?eid=402903
It’s fun and I like the actor for Takemoto-kun (now that I know him in dorama several times), but I’m really lagging with my RTK and sentences review. =’( The past week has been hectic, I need to catch up now…
あと２０１日
もうすぐ６月だね？試験の出願もすぐにしなきゃよね？勉強はね、ちょっと遅いですぅ…学校が色々すごく忙しいから、論文とか、まじめすぎの友達とか、厳しい先生とか…寂しいです。ｖ＿ｖ；
I need to sleep soon, so I’ll write in English. Updates:
1. All books returned, and I barely have time to strictly studying. Studying vocabs from textbook is very very tough. But I’ll probably have to do that again. I still find my vocab is not enough. Will probably get the vocab book from Unicom again.
2. I got the reading book again. I can read through very quickly passage 4, but then the understanding won’t be very good. Passage 3 was okay-ish, though.
3. I didn’t use ANKI again. I found it’s easier to use from the alpha from RTK, it can search vocabs directly (a bit limited, but it’s great). So far collected 90+ sentences from various sources, game, twitter, email, job posting.
I also put the grammar sentences to here, to keep up reviewing them. But maybe I should change the format… I can’t really realize whether the grammar forms are there or not.
4. I got a language exchange partner! It’s awesome! He replies so fast! But that makes me a little… @___@ Because it takes me a long time to compile the email. I suppose I’ll limit once per day. We’ll see how it goes. But this’ll make sure my writings get checked and know how to say things politely and not say improper stuff. =D Awesome. I still couldn’t believe I got a reply, though… since I’m not native English.
5. I finished a manga about the end of Shinsengumi. Currently trying to finish Gintama vol 1, but the language… makes me want to cry, very very… hmm… manga-ish. It’s interesting, and I sometime can relate it as to how they pronounce it in the anime, but… won’t be very helpful to how to use normal Japanese.
I should try finishing my Kyou Kara Maou novel. But it has lots of hard kanji that I never see in RTK 1 before… *cringe* My plan is to read all of my Japanese books that I have here before this end of year… and I have lots and lots of them here…. @___@ Probably almost reaching 50 including the magazines…
6. This Australian winter holiday, we’re going to Japan!! I hope I can get use of my Japanese speaking there, even though a bit. Will definitely listen a lot, read a lot, and stare a lot XD
7. I seriously need to start on trying the past test again. Maybe this weekend if I’m not KO’d.
