Alrighty - I’m back from radio silence for a week in preparation for the JLPT (2kyu) which I’m fairly sure I failed fantastically. Having said that, now that I know what the real test is like, I’m confident that I can prepare for it next time around. I’m reverting to my “it was a practice run” defense plan to help soothe my hurt feelings.

School is in session, but it is primarily testing season - with a little bit of sports thrown in for fun. (Once tests end, they have a “Class Match” day at my base school. It’s like a mini-field day where the classes compete as home rooms against one another, typically in a volleyball tournament.) I’m also running a special English project until the 14th, which shall be my last day at school in December.

In fact, I think it might be my last day blogging during winter break, too. I am now exactly 2 weeks away from being in America. (And stoked about it.) I have made an executive decision to leave my blog alone so as to make the most of my time with my family and friends. It will mean nearly a month’s absence, as I’m in America from the 17th of December to the 7th of January. I just wanted to announce that so that nobody wonders what’s going on. :-) Right now, though, I’m going to go do something I’m good at and talk to people who like me in an attempt to lick my JLPT wounds. Ha ha ha.

Hey - at least I had some really good food and a great chance to bum around with 2 of my favorite people (Aileen and Nicole) in Hiroshima!
