Default I just enroled in a Basic Japanese Class



I'm terrified allready! hahaha
I asked my boyfriend if he would go with me, and he said he couldnt
due to work comitments (he's on-call) although I think he just didnt want to go.
It's only 2 hours once a week but it's something ^_^

I decided I'm tired of my life how it is right now. I'm pushing myself to do the things I see when I envision a happier (and cooler *cough*) me.

I will not be a passenger in my own life anymoreee.

That sounds really fun! Congrats to you for your triumph and your new attitude.

I'd love to learn Japanese. I'm jealous.

Cool Do you have to pay for that? I guess you most likely do... i'd quite like to learn another language, might try and see if there's any classes near me.

^LOL

My language of choice would be either Italian or Catalan, but Japanese is up there on the list.

It'll be pretty bad before class, but after your done it'll feel fantastic trust me

Japanese is challenging but really fun if you get into it. Good job on pushing your fears aside and doing what you want to do. Hope the class goes well for you!

Oh now I feel like I'm disappointing everyone, but I can't do the class.
I got reminded I have family dinners at my nanas house every second Monday. So I would miss every second class. (Forgot because she had been overseas in China for a month)
I think I don't really feel like it was a failure though because I pushed myself outside of my boundrys and was prepared to go.

I really hope those of you who were concidering taking up a class still do so!
I will be looking for classes possibly during the day/different days.
