Sep. 26th, 2009 05:53 pmWhat a week.
So, can has job. \o/ Then can has vacation, which is more exciting.
But, that also means I am cramming Mandarin into my head with only moderate success. I am learning numbers. I've got 1-99 down with making frowny faces at my remembering skills. Next lesson, to 9,999 and beyond~ I can imagine, the first time someone asks me for ___ amount of money verbally, that I will look at them like, ?_? because even in Japan, I was buying postcards the first day, and got asked for 400 yen... yon hyaku, not exactly the most complicated thing, and I still gave her too much. Haha. So yes. Listening comprehension, go.
...Of course, if we are truthful, the most important phrase at this point is "Gimme my concert tickets, please."
...Really glad I decided to next-day that package, since it wouldn't have gotten there till Tuesday otherwise.
Now that I'm 98% complete with the land of girls, almost fully back into boys, huzzah. The KyuMi baseball AU burgeoned from 8k to 11k in...the last day. Which is exciting, though I think the HenHae will get some love at some point. >.> It's so hard for me to keep focused with the 313924036412390 fics that I have started. (or, you know, 9)
"I hate myself and want to die" doesn't quite cover that. "I find myself questionable and need six more hands" is a little more accurate.
I had to go find the translation of "7 Years' Love" on some random site and.... Hmmmm. Hmmm. Hmmm.
*icon in honor of Ichiro being ejected from a game for the first time in his career. I... Probably should not laugh as hard as I did.
