Benkyo...NOOO!
My language course is well taught, organised, fun and enjoyable but Japanese is the most complicated, confusing and downright frustrating thing I've ever had to apply myself to. Having gained enough J-speak to get by in simple conversations, order in restaurants and ask directions, I was quite proud of myself after a year. However, I now realise that a) I still have A LOT to learn to be proficient b) a great deal of words that I often used before were conjigated wrong or just plain innapropriate and c) although I am pants at speaking japanese, I can't help but let it litter my everyday English,which is fine if I'm talking to other similarily minded friends but makes me look like a right tit in any other circumstances (ie real life!)
Despite that, last night, feeling the effects of all you can drink seshion I managed to sing not one but three japanese songs somewhat accurately at karaoke. (orange range, SMAP, Bennie K)
Ya-fucking-Ta!
