U.W.I. September 9, 2006

My first week of UWI is officially over. I must say it was quite the week.

I am yet to take my ID picture so that I can finally get a UWI ID (I promise to do this next week).

I haven’t said it before so I will say it now, I am in the faculty of Humanities majoring in History. I am enjoying my classes so far, they have all been great, now its just the wait until the massive work reaches me and the stress begins :(. Japanese class is especially fun, I am learning to write Hiragana and Katakana and a little Kanji and to speak the language as well. So I am hoping by the time I am finished with UWI I will be able to have a conversation with somebody in Japanese :D

Takahashi Sensei (my Jap teacher) is a really cool teacher, she was born and grew up in Japan and speaks 4 different languages (Japanese, French, Spanish, English) and I must say that she gets the cool teacher of the week award :D

Partied on Thursday night, got frazzled (tipsy) but it was still a great night, lots of girls and rum and the wining and stuff.

But all in all thats my first week of UWI, met new friends, reunited with old ones… now i have to go and study my Hiragana alphabet.

Yea right taylor. Trust me, by the end of October I will be able to read manga (trust me thats what my sensei told me) and by the end of this first semester I will have enough knowledge (if i study hard and pass) to actually live comfortably in Japan (according to takashi sensei). Since i am already signed up for next year, by the end of the first school year… i will be known as…. STEWY TAICHOU!!!!!
