I have never wanted to sleep so badly as I did today. Luckily for me when I managed to get home I had hit my second wind so I wasn't able to enjoy a good nap. (Sarcasm) I was also having a really long crop dusting session. Anyone who has been out drinking beer all night knows the woes of the beer farts that come the next day. Luckily the eight foot tall windows in the class room provides ample air circulation. Class was difficult though because I didn't have the energy to really concentrate on what was going on or take legitimate notes.
We also have a kanji test and chapter summary test on Wednesday so it's going to be a pretty heavy study night tomorrow. The big thing coming down the line though is the placement test on 6/22. It will be my first chance to move up or down to a different class and shuffle some of my classmates around. Some of them are really becoming annoying because the honey moon period where everyone was new and didn't know anyone so they were too shy to talk. Now that they're in their comfort zone some of the people who should never talk are talking all the time.
The problem is everyone seems to think they're in the same group so there is no proper separation going on aside from the natural racial ones. To clarify, people who aren't obsessed with cartoons and J-pop singers can't be invited out to have a normal drink without the lil' children wanting to tag along. It feels like walking on egg shells talking to these people and some really high school crap is going on too. Since I was the special guest for 20 million questions at the house party this weekend the class decided that I was going on a date with the Japanese teacher/student that came over to class last week.
Never mind that I already have a girlfriend and that I haven't even talked to the other girl since she visited the whole class. On top of that she is eighteen and that's just young enough to be a little creepy at my age since I'll be 10 years her senior in September. But I guess kids at school like to gossip about crap like that. I just wish I knew how they got the idea that I had some kind of date set up because if they create bad vibes and I can't get in good with the Japanese teachers-to-be because they think I'm trying to nampa the place it's going to ruin my good mood.
I almost forgot my point. The good news I got today was that the softball match will only be postponed one more time and it's gone for good. So if we have rain on Friday I can enjoy a normal education experience instead of a kiddie P.E. class.
