Blog Entry新年の決意 (しんねんのけつい)Jan 13, '08 4:33 AM
for everyone
I don't make New Year's resolutions. I know that I won't be able to follow them anyway.

We were made to think of one word which will be our shinnen no ketsui or New Year's Resolutions, and write them down (using Japanese calligraphy, of course). One word to guide me during 2008:

にん たい
忍耐
(Perseverance, Endurance, Patience, Tolerance)

That's it. I don't need to write long lines of "I want to do this" or "I want to do that" or "I need to be more like this." Just one word is enough. Because listening to a person who blabbers on and on about his or her plans to change his/herself can be so tiring.

And this is the result of our shodou session last January 7th:

Chinese people wrote their names in Kanji so I can't read them.>_<;; I was fascinated when I saw these in the AIKOM office that I had to take a picture and make a special entry for it. It was the first time all AIKOM students who are taking Japanese classes were in one special class so it's really memorable for me.

In other news...

We are going to YUKI MATSURI!!!

From February 5-7. YATTA~!!!\\(^0^)//

for everyone
Nope, wala akong kagalit. Trip ko lang mag-Tagalog this time. Ewan ko ba. Mag-aalas kwatro na dito pero genki genki pa rin ako.o_O Pero sigurado pagdikit ng likod ko sa kama, para akong naknockout.XD

Una sa lahat...


BAITO GET!!!

Hehe. Nagtrial lesson kami kanina sa Starbucks sa Kichijoji. Shet napapadalas ako sa Starbucks ah.o_O Anyway, ayun. May baito na ako. 2 hours per lesson. Ibig sabihin ¥4000 per lesson! Ang maganda pa, malapit lang dito sa dorm yung pagtuturuan ko. Siguro 10 minutes by bicycle lang. Whee~

Tapos tapos, pupunta kaming Ghibli Museum mamaya. Well, dalawa lang kami ni Viet Thi, pero kahit na. Hehe. Ang engot namin, ngayon lang kami pupuntang Ghibli Museum samantalang nadadaanan ng bus yun palagi pag papasok kaming school.XD
After ng Ghibli, kain lang saglit sa Kichijoji at bili ng one month train pass from Kichijoji to Komaba Todai Mae, tapos babike na ulit ako pabalik ng NTT Biru Mae para imeet yung student ko.

After nun, Shinnenkaaaaaaaaaaai~!!! NEW YEAR'S PARTY DITO SA DORM!!! WHOO~!!! Free food ulit~\(^0^)/ Gusto ko ulit mag-MoPara. Dun yung eat-all-you-can sukiyaki. Mas mura pala sila kapag lunch.
¥980 lang. Eh yung kinain namin ni Klao nung New Year's Eve, ¥1600+.

Grah~! Dapat matulog na ako. Maaga pa ako gigising mamaya dahil kailangan mag-almusal bago magbike ng mga 20 minutes pa-Ghibli Museum!

Ang high ko ngayon. Siguro masaya lang ako dahil may baito na ako sa wakas. Pero may interview pa rin sa Gaba sa Jan 9. Ay takte, hinihintay ko pa pala yung package na pinadala ni mama. Andun na yung DVD Camcorder!\\(^0^)// Whee~

Ayan, sige. Matutulog na talaga ako.
