.......so I guess this kind of conversation will never stop.
"Stevie Ray" called me tonight, and we talked about tons ideas of lifes and so on. Then I just realized that I'm not the only one who has "the" feeling about being here. Guess we TM people are facing the very same thing. On top of that, we all have our own vexation to deal with. Some are the family issue, some are interpersonal relationship, and some are even worse ---- the topic of life.
It was a *nice* long talk between 2 grown-ups.
Think about the # of people you can talk to in depth, then you should be thankful!!
(Hey, how long was it? 90 minutes only. Shame on us, we could have done better, man~~)

It just don't feel like the first day of school to me, since I've been in the orientation for about 10 days already....... (sadly, yes.)
Anyway, the "official" 1st day of school was quite alright. TJP is supposed to be my relaxing class, but seems like it's gonna be a ass-kicking class. Kato-sensei did all the instructions in Japanese as I can imagine, but he has to deal with students with various backgrounds and different proficiency in Japanese, it's kinda hard for himself too. Oh well, it's all my bad actaully, cuz I didn't even try to practice Japanese on my lovely vacation. So, I forgot like almost everything about Japanese. I did a pretty lame intro of myself, even thou being a chem grad in that class is kinda cool......
Then I audited the class that I'm gonna TA for. Never tried this before, (dahhhh) and it's actually kinda hard to describe how it feels. I'm NOT taking the class, yet I have to pay attention in class and to know almost everthing the prof. covers in the lecture.
Being a grad starting this quarter, I start to see things differently. Grades are like NOTHING right now, what matters is if I really learn stuff.
And I have a really messy schedule this quarter, on top of that, my class and the lab I have to TA overlaps. Wahaha!! What a wonderful quarter this will be!!

I've never felt this dumb before......
We did a session called Microteaching this afternoon. Basically, it's just 5 of us taking turns and go up to the board, do some teaching in chemistry in front of everyone. That was a piece of cake alright. But you know what!? THEY VIDEOTYPE IT!! God, I just feel so embarrassed when we all watched my part of the video.
But thank God, I did it alright, and I'm kinda good at dealing those stupid questions. All the TAs are kinda cool, and I'm so glad to have them around, so we can all help each other. :)
Oh well, school will officially start tomorrow, and I start to see people everywhere on campus. Wish mt luck on my classes + the TA stuff.
I'm gonna be a kick-ass TA!!!
muwahahahaha~~~~~~

HELLO!! WORLD!!!
It have been almost 4 months that I haven't updated my blog........ (It's such a strong indicator that I've been away somewhere out there and have fun!!)
I'll post my photos over the summer later sometime, and now I just want to share a site that tells you what your real name is in Japanese:
My japanese name is 山田 Yamada (mountain field) 久美子 Kumiko (eternal beautiful child).
