hsmsful Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Apparently there was a shooting less than a mile away from our house. Somehow nobody got killed or even injured, but we're supposed to "shelter in place" until they catch the dumbass responsible. Guess it's just more time to read Princess Evangile. Get on my level , every week there's a shooting in my street or two streets away.... dem drugs and the people who smoke them. For some reasom my street is never visited by the police so there are like 3 drug dealers, 2 booze stores and like 1 casino but it was burned down 2 years ago . Anyways my street has to have a dispute between the drunk everyone once in a while with guns and all. Plus ofc the usual dispute between police and protestors in the main road which my house lies on too . I guess these are the reasons I am a heavy sleeper. If gunshots don't wake me up then my alarm won't. Quote

Cyrillej1 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Honestly, I took 2 years of Spanish just because it was required for graduation (you the same case? lol), and forgot almost all the basics once I was done with the classes. Learning Japanese would likely require more time than Spanish for English speakers, but I feel like I've had an easier time learning it. Might be because I'm more interested. But the key factor in learning is time. If you can find a source of motivation to keep your studies consistent, then you should be solid. My main problem was that I wasn't that motivated enough to study, but then I decided to download CGs and OSTs of untl'd games I was interested in. I took Spanish class because it was required for my highschool. After I was done with the classes, I happily never used it again and forgot everything (I only remember very basic things like counting). It's weird but I actually feel like I'm learning Japanese better than I ever did in Spanish, and it's probably because I'm actually interested in learning Japanese and choosing to do it out of my own choice and time. I haven't had much time to invest in it anymore, but it's still one of my personal goals to keep getting better at it... so I probably won't forget it completely like I did with Spanish. Confession: It was kinda mean of me... but I once gave out a fake number to a random stranger that asked for my phone number, lol. I didn't want him to bug me about why I didn't want to give him, so I just made something up. Quote

Cyrillej1 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 I'm quite interested in learning Japanese, I'm just a bit intimidated because it seems really hard to learn. How is that mean? A random person asking your number is creepy as hell. If you don't feel comfortable doing something, there's no obligation to do it. Being "rude" is better than doing something that you feel is wrong I think the hardest part is mostly the kanji, just lots of memorization Just saying it coulda been mean xD... 'cause I might be sad if someone gave me a fake number when I tried to get to know them better, lol. Rejected~~~ Quote

Rejected~~~ I know I would've been sad... then again I'm not the kind of person who would ask for someone's number in the first place. Confession: I've taken a total of ~6 years of Spanish and 4 years of French... I don't remember a thing. TIME WELL SPENT Quote

I wish they offered Japanese back then, would have been more useful to me and my hobbies~ Cual es tu numero de telefono? Por favor, no me dan un número aleatorio Brought to you by: google translate I forgot my Highschool mandatory Spanish too. Good thing though modern Filipino got so much Spanish words in it, I can get the gist of what people are saying from connecting simple words. Quote

Cyrillej1 Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 homura did nothing wrong Well, one possibly good thing that came out of it, was that she fully exposed her lust for Madoka xD.... yuri win. ...or lose, I dunno anymore~ aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...... I wish they just spirited away happily together, forever. I'm still shocked... Quote
Kenshin_sama Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Having Japanese class during highschool would've been sugoi I'm actually not so sure about that. There's been numerous claims that Japanese isn't taught that well in western universities. I hear that they even start teaching you words before touching grammar (which is not a good idea). There might be some exceptions (I'd hate to think all universities are bad), but it seems like online resources would be your best bet for learning the language. rainsismyfav 1 Quote
Eclipsed Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 I like how Cyr is more comfortable posting her madoka thoughts here rather than say, the what are you watching thread over in anime/manga ~~ Thinking about investing in a windows tablet, I can probably read VNs better if I could just lay my ass down in bed like I do currently with anime. any of u have advice? I know taco-senpai advocated for Asus t100 2-1 hybrid thingy but that was like last year Quote

I know taco-senpai advocated for Asus t100 2-1 hybrid thingy but that was like last year Why not just get a laptop then, too expensive? Confession: My grandma has been in the hospital since Wednesday. She had her first stroke and it did some pretty heavy damage to her left side. If her blood pressure lowers she will be transferred to a PT rehab thing. Don't really know what to think about it. I just borrowed money from her for the Steam sale and was going to work it off during the summer. She was going to make chicken salad and homemade buns while I helped around. Hasn't really sunk in yet, I just hope some of it is recoverable. In other not so depressing news, I have a piano to use now! Set it up in my room and it's really fun learning to play so far. I meet with my instructor once a week for an hour and the rest is in home study and what now. It's a digital piano so I can plug in headphones or lower the volume and play at night, since my schedule is the opposite of most people. Oh, and I got demoted in CS:Go, fuck. Quote
