A need to rant
so heres my rant
So the other day I was working on a project for the speech contest, and one of the english teachers from the U.S. at my school came and confronted me about the fact i don't spend alot of time with my clasmatess. Well, I have a private scedule, with all private classes (with the exception of art, gym, and computer graphics), so obviously i don't see them in class. And at lunch, a couple kids invited to eat a few times, but they stopped after awhile. And honestly, I find the majority of my classmates too immature and materialistic to relate with on a similar level. I don't care about the purikura you did this weeknd or the newest line of Louis Vuttion handbags. And these are the things they talk about, even amongst themsleves not just with the forien girl and her basic japanese.and for the record, i find louis vuttion's merchendise tacky and kinda ugly, and rediculously overpriced.If only i could communitcate theses things with them with them we might have a slightly less shallow conversation...I have been studying like crazy, I can understand the television and movies, and almost all what i hear around me and what people say to me.I can read all the hira and kata and i know alot of kanji, but when it comes to actually speaking japanese...thats where i have trouble, when someone says something to me, i can'T find the words, all the japanese i learned just slips out of my mind and I can'T reply except in really broken basic sentences.I understand but I have no idea how to reply or how to say it.
I only have one friend really at school, keiko, shes really smart and speaks excellent english, and is studying swedish and a couple other laguages. shes studying to become an interprter for the U.N. Shes also way into all the same music, clothes, hobbies as me. MCR FOREVER!
So back home, apparently it'S been snowing like mad. Like 4 feet(like 120 centimeters) in the past two days. and snow days. I am super jealous, i should be up at purgatory shredding up the mountain...I miss skiing. and snow.but not shoveling it. XP
Happy Snowdown Everyone, and Happy Shoveling.
ahaha.
still the irony, the year i leave, is the year we have the first real colorado winter in 10 years, and snow days! ack!
