Bad Day
Jake Fisher wasn’t the one who posted that to me. Which makes sense because I know Jake is extremely loyal and loving to his current girlfriend. I should know better than to think it is him. So my next guess, which is more reasonable, is possibly one of my classmates named Robert Eso but then again, too soon to say.
My day turned out really bad because this morning my Japanese teacher was very strongly implying that I am slacking in the class. Although he just generalized it as “this side of the room” he was irritated at me for not doing my work correctly, which is lame because I am a good student when I have a teacher that actually teaches. Plus, I am only in Japanese 1 meaning I am not supposed to be all that great yet. I have such a hard time putting together Japanese sentences. It is such a huge difference on how they arrange their sentences, it is pretty much backwards. For example, I would say something like, I love drinking water. If I were to say that in Japanese, direct translate it would turn out something like, I water like drinking but as the sentences get longer it gets more complicated and that’s where I get lost. Maybe I can get Rickey and Kevin to help me in my Japanese?
My mother will get mad when the phone bill comes around because last night I was talking to my friend Alex, from my old school. We ended up talking almost six hours last night? I went to sleep at around 4ish. Our conversation was constantly shifting because we had so much to say to each other, but I did most of the listening. He is kind of getting me back into reiki which is a good and bad thing at the same time. For those who don’t know what the heck I mean, reiki is pronounced at ray-key which is basically healing using your life force. You can also use it for other things such as mind communication which is my personal favorite.
My mom and I got into a big argument today and it was lame. She used to speak good English but now everything is all jumbled up so she can’t understand me. I also think she will get Alzheimer’s or something. Lack of brain stimulation and intelligence will cause you to get Alzheimer’s. I asked her when the last time she actually read a book was and she said when she was single which 18 years ago.
It’s so cute because last night Alex said he liked me in the middle of our long conversation. I told him I have a boyfriend and he said something along the lines of, well tell me when your single. Alex is cute and all but I belong to Jerry dear and I am extremely loyal.

I’ve liked learning other languages. The stinky part is that most other languages use structuring that is nothing like English, except for German, maybe. That sounds a lot like the structure of Latin, Spanish, and French too. For example: in English we say ‘red ball’, in Spanish it would be ‘ball red’. And if it’s a big red ball, you say ball big red, unless it’s a really large ball then you would say,’ Large ball red. crazy!!
I love learning new languages! Spanish is proving to be difficult, but I’m sure it’s nothing compared to Japanese. Good luck with that, and it’s cool you’re catching up with an old friend. It’s nice to have someone who knows you from way back when in a completely different way than others do =)
