New season, New stuff to do
I don't seem to be able to post with any kind of regularity. Oh well, at least I have not abandoned it all together.
Some things I have been doing lately:
Learning Japanese
Going back to college
Not sleeping enough
Running
I has started to dabble a bit in learning some Japanese. Right now I am focusing more on the reading part of it as I found this neat little program calle Slime Forest. It is a cool shareware program that helps teach you hiragana, katakana, and even kanji as you beat cute little slimes into the after life. I know pretty much all of the hiragana and katakana and I know about 55 kanji already. Sweet! I also picked up a Japanese dictionary and a couple of original Japanese manga to read. I have not started on that yet, but I can't think of a better way of learning words for me.
Back to college, taking Macroeconomics course. Shouldn't be too hard as long as I don't fall behind in the readings.
Don't have a whole lot to say about this one other than. Curse you video games!
I have been trying to shed the little pot belly I grew and so have started to do some aerobic exercising in addition to the weight lifting that I have been doing. Running is kind of a love/hate relationship for me. I seem to be liking it more as I run more thought. I am able to run about 1 mile before I get to tired to continue. Yesterday though after my run I seemed to recover very fast and felt like I could run even farther. I was also able to touch the ground with my legs straight for the first time that I can remember. So that was pretty cool.
