The second session of the lower level JLPT prep course was crazy hard today. The first course was a full on test covering the basics of reading, writing, and listening comprehension. This two hour session after lunch was a rapid cram session reviewing each of the questions, the answers, which ones were bogus answers, which ones had legitimate vocabulary, what the difference in meanings were, other words with similar meanings, and points of interest for future tests. If that doesn't sound difficult then I didn't do a good job explaining it the situation. The teacher was running through the material in Japanese only, writing tons of new kanji, and trying to squeeze all the material into two 50 minute lessons.
The teacher came across really strict the first session and most of today too, but I also got the impression that she has a playful side with the students from her class. She's just kind of heartless when it comes to people who don't have their dictionary or forgot something like their papers. It kind of worked out for the best since I'll be missing out on classes Thursday and Friday I can focus on the JLPT book without getting bogged down with other bogus assignments like making more drama scripts.
Speaking of holy crap Batman, this was on TV tonight. A guy cut his knee and got infected with a rare tree virus and BAM! Half man, half tree... without all the crime fighting.
