who am i??

things for friday:
- kanji quiz
- listening comprehension hw
- speech (about 5 minutes) in japanese
- akp research grant proposal

thursday night:
- didn't study for quiz
- listening comp. hw done
- 30 seconds of speech written
- no progress on proposal

- didn't go to gym. sports bras were all in wash or still damp :(
- decided to nap at 11:30pm
- woke up at 5:30am the next morning when matt called me on skype

friday morning:

- talked to matt for a couple hours before deciding to finish speech
- didn't prepare slideshow of pictures i wanted to show during presentation
- studied for quiz on hankyu
- practiced speech (from my macbook! >_<) on subway
- late to class by two minutes = no time to print speech
- finished quiz before the last person, so i didn't delay class. *whew*
- but not coming in early = vocab used in speech not written on blackboard = minor delay *fail*

the speech went fine. it could've been a lot better, but i did my best. (and plus, it can ALWAYS be better. there's no use being hard on myself ^_^)

friday afternoon:
- religion class. (to make up the class that got canceled last week)
- back to the akp lounge to work on grant proposal
- skyped with matt XD
- proposal due at 5pm ~ it got turned in at 4:55pm

since last year, i've never been this bad at meeting deadlines >_<
akp's making me soft. can't wait to get back to midd's rigorous pace.
like mia said, i probably wouldn't be happy unless i were buried up to my neck in work XD

  1. Hi Jean!

    I've really enjoyed following your blog over the past few months. You mentioned using your Macbook--has it worked well in Japan? I assume they use all PC's over there, so I'm hoping I won't have any compatibility issues with my own Macbook. I'm coming over on March 23rd--so close--I'm getting excited!

    Hope you're still having fun!
