Focus people!
I had my golden 25th birthday a few days ago. As usual nothing changed much.
My friends BD is the day before mine, so we went bowling, had a good party and a good time. The BD boys went through a mini keg of Heinekens.
There are a few, shall I say unruly, people in my Japanese class. They constantly talk about crap during class making it hard to hear and concentrate. I don't get these youngsters. I can say that now cause I am 25. :) They pay good money to take a Japanese class, but they don't seem to put any effort into actually learning it. There are a few exceptions of course, but they are all much older than the young ones. I just don't understand some people.
There is two especially disruptive people. One which constantly interrupts with questions that the teacher has answered three times already. He continuously asks the same question over and over again and just does not seem to get it. I am pretty sure that he has some sort of mental disability, but it is still disruptive to the class. The other person is more obnoxious. He always butts in when someone is asking a question and sensei is attempting to answer it. I know that sensei sometimes struggles with conveying the meaning and answering the question, but this guy just is so brazen and crass when he interupts her . The worst thing is that he is not really that reliable with his answers that he gives. He is one of those know it all types that acts like they do, but is unable to deliver.
On the plus side I am learning Japanese! There are a few people who are in the class to actually learn Japanese for real. One is actually planning a trip to Japan fairly soon and he has been there before. The other is going to be moving to the Naval base not far from Tokyo, so he wants a nice jump start to learning the language.
I have been spending too much time playing video games and not doing my studying. I have barely read any of my Business Law, so I am like 3 chapters behind. I have a test coming up this weekend. My Comp class tonight I have not read any of the chapters for. I got a test tonight too, but it should be super easy. Japanese class is at the point where I am really learning new stuff that I have not gone over repeatedly on my own. However I still need a lot more practice.
