Cram

Daily study routine
Review words (around 100)
Study new words (35 per day)
Review grammar points (no more than 50 a day)
Study new grammar points (5 per day)
Read two news articles
Watch at least two hours of Japanese television (and study unknown words)

Time allotted: 5 hours
Time left until the JLPT: 164 days, 3952 hours, 237172 minutes
Current temperature in the house: 59 degrees
Days left before I go mad: Hrm...maybe twenty or thirty?

All I can hope is that the promise of spring in two months will help me keep chugging along...

To be frank: studying for this exam has given me a new found respect for people who attend jobs and attend school. I always knew that it was never easy, but the extend of which remained a mystery to me.
After coming home from a seven hour work day and four hours at naginata practice, the last thing on my mind is studying.

Then I realize that I have only 164 days left, and it motivates me...somehow...

Ha-rumph!

Quoth a commercial I just saw on Japanese TV:
"I wish that I had a bigger nose..."

...
Are you intentionally mocking me, Japan, or is it just something that you do?

Hrm...



I'm feel much better today, which is quite odd considering that the project is even closer and I still have a lot to pack.

Huh.

Goddamn it...

You know, I decided maybe, just maybe I would buy myself a Gators shirt. Because, you know, I never did.

I heard that Victoria's Secret would be be releasing some clothing with various schools on it (University of Florida included).

What do they release? The ugliest crap ever.

You know what? I WANTED to buy a shirt from you, but what do you make? A shirt with that ugly Gator head and SOME HEARTS.

HEARTS!

Yeah, just...just stop. Go to jail -- do not collect $200 -- just...just effing stop.

...

Hearts. REALLY?! HEARTS? You make me sick.

Fail
