私の日本　Travels

So i went to a really cool bible study this last Saturday, it was really needed too. A friend from IHOP invited me and my new good friend Dajung! She is a cool girl from Seoul, Korea.

They are studying trains and directions. Which at JCCC does not even get covered until the second year of Japanese, I only did one year. So there it seems that there is a lot that 2a expects me to know that I have not done. The grammar quiz in level one today was harder than 2a`s??? So i might drop down so i can perfect my knowledge. Level one is also going th...
