Gooooooaaaaaalllll (part 2)

I have been reading new Japanese material out loud as I hoped I would, including a Japanese children's book that my father sent to me. I have also shadowed (formally and informally) much more material than expected.  This has helped me become more natural and improved my speaking speed (I hope).  Unfortunately, due to soccer, I have not been able to attend the language table more than once or twice.  I will work on changing that in the future.

For the rest of the semester, I want to continue to shadow for about an hour a week (10 minutes per day).  I would also like to visit the language table much more often and continue to make appointments with all the senseis.  In terms of quizzes, I would like to not miss a point on a vocab quiz from here on out (starting today).  If I study enough it should be possible. I am also going to talk to other Japanese students outside of class and make awkward conversation with them in Japanese until it starts sounding less awkward.

Until next time,

あきやすみ

こんばんは。

あきやすみに　フィラデルフィアに　いきました。フィラデルフィアは　とても大きい　まちです。　そして　きれいじゃありません。　あにのうちに　いきました。　うちは　とてもたかいです。　ごごじゅういちじごろに　ねました。　ごごいちじごろに　おきました。　ぜんぜんあさごはんを　たべませんでした。　でもいつも　ひるごはんを　たべました。　よく　ピザとパスタを　たべました。　きんようびに　りょうに　かえりました。　にほんごのたんごを　べんきょうしました。

じゃ、また。
