lost in translation

Studying 2 foreign languages at a time is seriously no joke. It gets even worse though, when you have tests for each language within a fortnight of each other. I was studying for the JLPT test on 2 December earlier in the afternoon, and now I'm having to block out all my 日本語 and concentrate on belajar Bahasa Indonesia, karena hari Rabu dan Kamis saya ada ujian di siswa.

All of this is giving a major headache, and we're not really into the exam period as yet....

雨の話

今日と昨日は久しぶりの雷雨ですね。涼しくなってほしいな！

ちなみに、寝ると言えば、雨の日は最高じゃない？

the pains of growing old

Was on my way home from school earlier, when I came across this elderly lady who had seemingly lost her way. Turns out she was headed to Bedok, so I accompanied her until we reached Bedok station.

The old lady had a serious problem remembering things though. We were making some small talk to keep ourselves occupied for the long journey, but she couldn't remember anything for more than 5 seconds. We ended up talking about the same things throughout the train ride. Come to think of it, I wonder if she remembered how to get home from the bus interchange.

Alzheimer's Disease setting in perhaps?

ちょっと写真を撮った。。。

久しぶりの自分の写真です。そうだよ、最近こんな様子になった。(^.^)

髪、長くなったんですね。

back to school

And not getting used to it just yet. Still haven't developed a habit of doing readings, checking for homework, and stuff like that. In fact, there have been days when I didn't turn up at school at all! (Thank god for webcasts I guess...)

But hopefully school will turn out fine in time.
