I shouldn't even be blogging. Really, tomorrow at 10:35 starts my Japanese final. I'm decently prepared, but I'd like a good grade so decent isn't good enough.
I slept in later than I intended today so that sucks. Making up for lost time by filling out my Japanese shortcuts book.
Essentially, I've been writing a notebook filled with all the forms (the ones that aren't you know... REALLY obvious) and it seems to be helping really well. If you write things instead of just looking at them chances are you'll remember them better, at least form my experience. Plus it helps to not have to turn 20 pages to find the next lesson in the textbook, as well as having all the information I'm looking for at a really easily accessible location.
When I'm finished with it for the three textbooks from this semester, I'm going back through and rewriting them in much easier to follow format with better examples. Having it rewritten in layman's terms with stuff that I actually find useful though is a HUGE benefit, and I recommend anyone learning a language try something along those lines.
Also, it would be totally awesome if I can make my cheat book so efficient that I can get it published. Cause that's like, free money.
There is a picnic on Saturday for the building. I convinced a bunch of people I know to go, so that in turn convinces me to go. And since it's during the weekend I shall take AND upload a bunch of pictures, and maybe even get a do a blog for once!
Wait, I'm doing one right now while I'm supposed to be studying.
I should probably stop.
