Using my trusty 16 year old Pinku-no-Buta mimikaki while trying to decide what to do next... Archive Grateful Dead shows, print Christmas Cards, or watch the Asano movie entitled Screwed. Or just drink beer and continue developing a meaningful relationship with my promotional video collection.
BTW, Pinku-no-Buta is no longer pink. She's gray now.

Felt that way about French class years ago. Learning Norwegian now. Nothing I can say in public though. :doh:

Thanks! I'm almost done, anyway. It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. What took me the most time was trying to figure out how to change the language settings so I can type in Japanese. Oy.
Youre a smart girl, Miss M.!!
Good luck on your paper!!
Enjoying morning coffee with the posts. Glad someone else is feeding this morning. Think I'll turn on the Christmas lights. :mrgreen:

yeah...and when i took japanese you could only miss a couple of days unexcused...after that for every day you missed class you would get points deducted from your final grade in the class....has a strange way to motivate the students.
Writing "Letters of Concern" for at-risk students. It's always fun when parents react by calling me up and blaming my bad teaching style for their child's failure. :bored:

Stupid parents. :beatyou:
Between the old crusty married guys asking for my number, and the mothers who think it's MY job to raise their kids, I'm surprised I even risk failing the kid. Too much parent hassle to deal with. :shakehead:
