tabular_rasa | Japanese and Fondue and SIMS 2 (Reply)

So, yeah, yesterday, we definitely used the vocabularly I DIDN'T learn in Japanese class, and it was, of course, that's the real hard-ass about the memorized "Core Conversations" and always marks me down for that in our weekly progress reports, always . . .

It's really a very Japanese way of doing things, though . . . memorizing the perfect example and then working from there . . .

Speaking of learning in Japanese, Jessica's roomate (Risa)'s friend, Kana, wrote me back again . . . she wants me to help her with English, though, lol, her English is certainly as good (and mostly likely better) than my Japanese, as I can tell from her letters asking me, lol ^_^ Ah well; I can help her practice!

Yesterday my Peer Advisor group went to the Melting Pot, a fondue place. We got four different types of fondues to try: chocolate, s'mores, cookies and creme, and Amaretto (which was really, really good). There were things like pineapple, strawberries, graham-cracker- or chocolate-coated-marshmallows, pound cake (my favorite ^_^ especially with the Amaretto, mmm ^_^), brownies, cheesecake, cherries, graham crackers, bananas . . . all to dip in the chocolate mixtures. MMMMMM!!!

There is also a Coldstone across the street from it. I need to go to the Loop more often, lol . . . though I do have no money, after all, lol . . .

Patricia has the SIMS 2, and I definitely made the Gaunt family and the Riddle family, with Tom and Merope as teenagers. They're going to fall in love, and have Voldemort, and then I'm going to start a whole Harry Potter world (er . . . neighborhood) with all of the proper generations and everything!).

Emo Kid
You are 0% Rational, 42% Extroverted, 14% Brutal, and 28% Arrogant.

You are the Emo Kid, best described as a quiet pussy! You tend to be an intuitive rather than a logical thinker, meaning you rely more on your feelings than your thoughts. Not only that, but you are introverted, gentle, and rather humble. You embody all the traits of the perfect emo kid. You are a push-over, an emotional thinker, gentle to the extent of absurdity, and so humble that it even makes Jesus puke. If you write poetry, you no doubt write angsty, syrupy lines about depression, sadness, and other such redundant states of emo-being. Your personality is defective because you are too gentle, rather underconfident in yourself, decidely lacking in any rational thought, and also a bit too inhibited.

I probably made you cry, didn't I? Fucking Emo Kid.

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

2. You are more INTROVERTED than extroverted.

3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

Compatibility:
