Altered impressions.

Today after Jap class, a friend and I walked out of the classroom together with our sensei (whom I happen to like very much), and as we were walking down the stairs she was telling us that she has a next class very soon but, not without "this" first - and she held up this little red box for us to see. Initially I was a little puzzled about what that box contained inside, but I didn't ask just in case it ended up being a silly question. After she mentioned "this" for the second time, I felt like I just had to ask her "What's that?" and so I did.

"It's uhm... cigarettes... I'm a horrible smoker." she replied with a sheepish smile, that kind you usually see on Japanese women... as though being a smoker was something she was terribly embarrassed about.

So desu ne. (Now Piggy, don't roll your eyes ;p)

Well, it never occurred to me that she is the type who smokes horribly. I guess looks can be deceiving.

"Ne". Perhaps the most overused Japanese word ever. I don't particularly hate it (in actual fact, it's just like a "decorative" particle which is used after certain sentences expressing agreement), but it's just very very annoying when some people insert it after every sentence they say/type. Even if its in ENGLISH. Nenenenenenene.

"Ne, sick already must drink more water and eat more fruits ne. Don't everytime sleep late then become panda ne." Something like that. ARRRRGGHHHHH.

Hiragana quiz (worth 2% of the total, but it will help in the long run I am sure!) in less than 12 hours. Ganbatte NE!

Bwahahhahahahahhaa -_-

I think I'd better leave right now,
Before I fall any deeper.
