Today was pretty much the same with the added bonus of having an order of Coco's but I was kind of disappointed. The cutlets tasted like they had been drying out in their oven for a few days before they actually decided to serve it. Yuko is helping me work out some of the Hiroshima plans with a travel magazine she picked up for the trip. There are actually a lot more things to see there than I had though and not all of them are related to the atomic dome land mark. I think we'll take turns bring cameras because hers is lighter and mine is better for capturing the scenery.
I made it through today's kanji list but the review is crazy hard. It was much easier with the teachers spending two hours explaining the different reading and examples for each kanji we covered. I guess I'll know how well I'm doing when I hit my practice test on Thursday. Reviewing the old kanji from the first book is really rough though and I haven't even looked at the grammar or summer assignments the teachers gave out. I'll probably save those until after I finish the trip though. I need the time off to get back in the flow of things because lately I'm hitting the wall where it's considerably more difficult to learn. A good break my help to level that out and even out the learning curve a bit. When I was the EPO I used to tell kids that they had to follow the four R's to learn anything. Read, write, rest, and remember. Yeah, technically write doesn't start with an R but who cares? The main point is that it takes time to forget something before you can learn it in a natural meaningful way.
