did more katakana today. more review. wikipedia is semi useful for reference.
Ogenki desu ka?

Please don't reply that in Japanese :) lol unless you are going to explain it in english afterwards....har har grin grin 

 

So i am finding this Japanese game thing quite useful and fun :) I play it at break fast and at tea time. I am learning a lot more with the game than anything else.

 

I am actually doning more than 15 mins...but it is not serious study...good thing is I am motivated.

 

Its called Talk now plus. Its for beginners like me! the only thing is the phrases it has is only useful for holidays...i want to look up something I can use it here. to talk to you :) and possibly use it to blog...just for fun conversation lol

 

Well to be honest I am a bit distracted with this BOOSt challenge when I log into TOOLS...so I forgot to even log in my time....

 

Anyways Sayoonara for now!

Kanpai!

PJ :)

So I saw you doing this challenge last time!
So what level are you at?  I am a total beginner and have no clue how to start. So give me some pointers. What is the best way to start to learn Japanese. So are we going to talk Japanese?? :)
