Break can't come soon enough, studying for finals is killing me! My Japanese has definitely gotten better. I can finally hold semi-long conversations with friends even if I have to switch to English from time to time. I think the workload of my Japanese classes here is much smaller than that of CSUMB, but we cover topics so quickly that my brain has to switch from one grammar form to another like that. The writing and listening classes are also fairly tough, but I'm slowly beginning to learn academic writing styles that I know will be incredibly useful for my capstone so I can't really complain. I have finals in all of my Japanese classes so I need to get into the studying mindset but it's definitely difficult. It doesn't feel like I'm studying abroad anymore. I truly feel like this has just been one big dream or vacation. I'm loving my time here in Japan and I can't wait to explore the country once the break rolls around. A 2 month long spring break? Sign me up immediately. I hope I pass everything but at this point I'm writing this blog now to procrastinate a bit. Here's to getting Ss on everything (equivalent to an American A) and traveling in style in February!
