Test to Test

Test week comes to an end tomorrow, but the studies will continue to be in full-swing. The Japanese language proficiency test is laying in wait at the beginning of next month, ready to dry my eyes, drain my brain, steal my heart, and take up four hours of my Sunday afternoon. Luckily, we have a few days off this week for the anniversary of our school's founding. While I intend to partake in a few school festivities with my Jo Niijima mustache, and upon completing all assigned homework, I plan on devoting a significant amount of time to vocabulary and advanced grammar. There should also be time for some long awaited visits to Mt. Hiei, Daitokuji, and Kitano Tenmangu. Sharpen the pencils and heat up the coffee, it's game time.
