Japan 111R Fifth Class

Another day another dollar... another 50 cents after tax.

Uh... nevermind. We had a test on our 5th class. It was brutal. We did a bunch of other stuff too. Full listing below.

First thing we did when we got to class was write a test. It was called a quiz. But it was 1 page both sided. Whereas our normal quizzes were 1/3 or 1/2 a page, single sided. It wasn't too hard. I definitely, didn't get perfect. But it wasn't easy either. It was alot of writing for one thing. It was no wonder alot of people didn't finish.

I got out of that test first. Yep, was pretty confident too, but then I started noticing things I did wrong. Like for the hiragana "ru", I pierced the bottom... LOL damn. Amongst other errors. But that was the worst of them.

In terms of learning. It wasn't much different from any other day. We did sing some song though. Using the melody from Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, the lyrics were replaced with stuff like "a" "i" "o" "u", etc. It was about learning Hiragana.

Alot of stuff was learned today. Going to take a long time getting this stuff down. Especially the days of a month.

All the things learned today:
- more nouns (meeting, park, places, today, tomorrow, etc)
- Going to places
- first 3 verbs, ikimasu, kimasu, kaerimasu
- including present, past, present negative, past negative
- Time
- today, tomorrow, next week, last month, etc
- monday, tuesday, etc
- 1st day of the month, 2nd day, 31st day, etc
- particle "ni"
