Well, the last few days I haven't really been feeling up to studying in the traditional sense of the word (at my desk for hours, pouring over textbooks and lectures and workbooks, with my dictionary at my side for those tricky words or kanji that my brain just doesn't want to remember), so I have been doing something a little more fun instead. I have been watching anime in Japanese, which is a lot of fun, and a good way to ensure that I am exposed to the language as much as possible even when I am really not feeling 100% I always get excited when I recognise a word or phrase, and it is fun explaining little jokes that rely on the language to others (for example, the 'Shiroishi' joke in Lucky Star). I have been watching Lucky Star, Higurashi, and Usagi Drop mostly the last few days. Also, I am debating whether or not to pick up a 3DS LL while I am in Japan. Gaming is another one of my favourite past times, and being able to play games in Japanese would also be a fun way to try to learn some more of the language (also, there are a lot of Japanese games that just don't get released in Australia... sigh). If I can find one that isn't too expensive while I am over there next month, then maybe I will buy one. The only question now is, which design do I choose? I find myself partial to the Disney design (I am a massive fan), and the Triforce design. But, it all really comes down to price and availability. Blasted region locking... | |
