Depending on how involved with my life you are (by which I mean, you found my blog by Googling something like "girl obsessed with Lady Gaga" or you're my boyfriend), you may or may not know about recent happenings.
Which - admittedly - aren't all that exciting.
Right now, I'm sitting in the University of Otago library, staring at my Japanese textbooks and thinking it would be a pretty good idea to learn some hiragana, especially given I am the ONLY person in the class who can't read it yet. Oh, that and the fact that we're expected to know katakana tomorrow. Not. Going. To. Happen.
Yeah, so I'm sucking in a pretty big way so far at uni, which isn't ideal. In the first two weeks of class, I had twenty-one lectures, and attended four of them. It prompted my boyfriend (more on him later) and I to strike a deal: we're now attempting to attend every class.
When you've missed the first two weeks of beginner's Japanese? Yeah, it's not that much fun.
*soldiers on*
Somewhere along the way (in LING221, an interesting excuse for 200-level university study during the summer) I met my now-boyfriend Jelle who's a fellow Otago student. Fingers crossed he has no objections to my using his real name on my blog...
*waits for objections*
*shrugs*
Mmm, so anyway he's studying something gay like management, but I'm trying my best not to hold it against him. Can't win em all, eh? And no, before you ask, it's not anything to do with Jelle that I've been so average with recent blogs. That's what I like to refer to as "Willownet" - the sad excuse for internet we have in our apartment. It works fine downstairs, sometimes. It just doesn't want to play ball in my room, which where, as a general rule, I prefer to write. There's something creepy about musing from the lounge, or from the second floor of Otago University's central library. Or even worse... from your boyfriend's bedroom (yeah, I know. I'm disgusting). Either way, he started reading my blog before we started "dating" (?) and has given me a bit of shit about not updating it recently, as has Aubrey.
So here you go, friends (firends? Haha). My first post in over a month!
Over and out...
