Hi! Well, I decided to put a quote as a title this time. Just to make it more interesting. This was by Carolyn Wells. Interesting. ^_^ I'm still feeling very sore, and have a HUGE headache. I'm just trying to take my pain killers. Hopefully I won't become addicted like I was a few years ago to Ibuprofen. Although, this is Naproxin, maybe it's slightly different? It's funny to feel the lumps on my head they're getting huge and they're kind of itchy. I'm trying my best not to scratch them. I finally sent out my letter to a Japanese penpal. I think she's been waiting awhile. The reason why it was so late was because we had to go out and buy an international stamp at the post office, and we never got around to it until today. Although, she took a much longer time to write. So, maybe it's ok. In hers she made a mini origami crane. It's kind of cool. I didn't really send anything extra though. Maybe she'll just be glad she got the letter. wink It was my first letter to Japan! Sorry, but it's kind of exciting!

I actually finished typing up my long Japanese vocab list. I did about 4 rows including the most common phrases. Phrases like Sayonara and Gomennasai. (Which means: Goodbye (very polite way of saying it), and I'm sorry.) After a meal they say gochisousamadeshita, which is like I enjoyed my meal or thank you for the meal. It looks longer in Romaji than hiragana, it's kind of funny this way. So, hopefully tomorrow I can go over it again, and find the kanji for some of the words I don't have. Then, I can make sentences, and work on more grammar. Oh, joy! But, it's still fun to me! I'll probably add more words to these lists too. I like my system so far. ^_^

I watched more of Nabari no Ou. I really like that they made the advisor or teacher as a guy from Ireland. They had him making as they said 'braised beef with a Guinness broth'. Kind of cool they're showing at least a little of his heritage. Also, cool because I'm part Irish, in fact quite a large percentage of me is of Irish descent. I told my dad about it, and he said Guinness goes with everything, and it's the best. I don't like beer so I wouldn't really know. Also, I feel kind of bad for Yoite. He doesn't really want to be known for killing people and is second guessing the ninjas he works for. I like how Miharu's cat is really close to him and tries to warn him of things.

I didn't really have time to watch Gintama. sad I also was distracted by a game online about farming. You collect eggs from these really large chicken like birds. After you collect them, you eventually send it to a place that spews out powdered eggs. After that you make bread in another machine. Then, the bread is converted to like a cherry pie kind of thing in another machine. You can buy ostriches too, although all they help you with is their feathers give you lots of money. There's lions that pop out of no where that like to eat the birds. If you cage them up you can sell them for money too. Also, there's even an incubator for the birds. I think I spent like an hour and a half on it. =^_^= T'was very addicting! wink
