Don’t.

Start of exams. Wheee -_-” Today’s Japanese Culture exam was actually rather fun, since I guess I knew it doesn’t really count and our teacher basically gave us the questions a week before. Still, the night before I was cursing having to remember the difference between youkais and yuureis (a step up from last term when we had to play “Name that Random Japanese Prefecture!” and answer true/false questions on Ultraman and Kamen Rider. I kid you not), but today I just scribbled down the answers in my pitiable Japanese without a care for being penalized for having abysmal grammar XD

Tomorrow I face you guessed it Physics, followed by Maths, Chemistry in the coming days, while the all important Japanese components -speech, listening, essay, comprehension, grammar, kanji- come next week. (The stress should really be killing me right now, yet here I am typing this in full denial lalala…) Once again I’m asking myself what the hell I’m doing studying bloody Science-related subjects in a foreign language here. To think I could’ve chosen something in the Arts and have myself a serving of Japanese Politics, Economics and History instead *sarcasm*!

(In all honesty, I do somewhat feel it’s a bit of a pity I’m not studying the history at least of the country I’m in right now. Though it involves more scary kanji, at least I won’t feel so lost the whenever I watch these Japanese quiz shows on TV -_-”)

Not looking forward at all to taking tomorrow’s Physics paper, since it’s one of my least fond subjects and having failed it previous term by one bloody mark. The irony being that when I see a Physics paper in Japanese, I find that I actually understand what the questions are asking of me – but I’m absolutely clueless as to how the @#$% I’m supposed to solve it. It seems my Japanese comprehension levels have actually surpassed my abysmal grasp of Newtons laws and whatnot -_-”

(Kinda reminds me of watching anime nowadays. The shows I’m watching I have no problem at all connecting to. But ask me to blog about them…)

*Ahem* So this was a rather stupid excuse of a “Don’t expect me to post anything for a while” post, with the hidden message to those who think it’s all fun and games for me over here – that it’s not always really (Okay, the message is meant more for myself really ORZ).

And to those studying for the JLPT and finding it difficult… well console yourself with the fact that you don’t really need to know how to write “electromagnetic flux” in kanji. (Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to know… And this is the part where I show off what I’ve learnt by typing the answer here – but I’ve obviously not revised enough ORZ)
