This is a regular series within TOKYO BOUND blog to share short weekly updates of my journey.
Highlight of my week?
今週は先週より楽になりました。友達に日本語のメッセージが初めて文法の問題はありませんって友達は話しました。I am slowly learning to have fun learning and one highlight is finally sending one text message that has no grammar errors!
日本に来たあと、軽井沢への旅行は初めて一泊旅行に行きました。Karuizawa is my first overnight trip in Japan!
What have I learnt this week?
もし、今の習う方法は私にサポートしなければ、学校を変わることのほうが良いです。It is alright to change school or just find somewhere else that helps with my learning if I am facing difficulties! I need not stick to one throughout.
新しい友達ができました！彼らと一緒にラクサ鍋を食べました〜 I made a new friend and had hotpot together!
What could I have done better?
どんどん日本語で長い言葉を話す方がいいと思います。I need to continue finding opportunities to speak more. I am less fearful of speaking but I am still giving short replies instead of longer ones.
早稲田で敬語授業をしていました。Keigo class at Waseda.
What am I grateful for this week?
いつも友達と先生たちを手伝ってくれてありがとうございます。I always have patient friends in Japan who help me with understanding, patient friends in Singapore who look out for me, and my teachers who are always very patient with my poor Japanese and homework quality.
