03/04/2005: "No more classes (for a few days)!"

Well, first and foremost.. my tests are finished! Good. I've gotten two out of three tests back.. 92% on both. One had Super written on it. I take this as a good sign. Could I have done better? Sure, if I devoted all my free time to studying. Could I have done worse? Definitely. So, I'm quite satisfied.

What have I been up to? Not too much actually. As you should be able to see, the journal's mostly redesigned now. I have a few more touches to add here and there, but the basic design is in place now (namely theme, image creation, and layout). I also need to redo my schedule script to it actually reflects what I'm up to nowadays. More recently (as in, 20 minutes ago), I just got off the phone from calling someone in Hokkaido, Japan. The strange (and somewhat amusing) thing about this is that the person on the other end spoke English (but not when they answered), so we were both trying to communicate in Japanese (I was calling for someone else who lives at the same place) though we both speak English. Kinda strange. We finally figured out that we both spoke English and quickly eralized the person I was looking for wasn't available.. so I'll be calling again in about 40 minutes. While I can speak some Japanese and understand some basic things (I can keep myself alive, pretty much), my Japanese is still a bit lacking.

Still not much advancement in the way of getting a job in Japan. As many have said before me, finding a job isn't exactly easy. However, finding a job in Japan adds an extra little thrill to the equation. But hey, no news isn't exactly bad news... right? Regardless, I'm buying my tickets soon. I will go to Japan. Oh yes, I definitely will.

Have math and Japanese homework.. so, naturally, I'll do that Sunday and Monday night (respectively). Weekends are made for fun, partying, and that stuff. Alas, I don't do much that's fun, nor do I party.. so I'll probably just do the status quo and keep on working on this design and some other web-based stuff. Yay!

I'll write again sometime soon.. and hopefully I'll have this fixed by then!
