A year in Nagasaki

A desription of my final preparations during august and the fun time in Amsterdam during that time up to my year at the university of Nagasaki from the 1st october 2005 thru august 2006. Together with 9 other students from the University of Leiden, Holland, we are on an extra-curricular year to improve our conversational skills. Will it work ??

Tuesday, October 4

Placement Test....

Today is the day for our 'placement test'. We will be tested about our proficiency in the Japanese language, written and spoken, so they can put us in the appropriate classes. Will end up really low cause I haven't looked at a Kanji for about three months...conversation will be even worse. On the other hand, I'm here just to learn all that and on top of that I don't want to be too good..creates high expectations with teachers..so no good !!
Alexandra still hasn't arrived. Where the hell is she????
Temperatures (weatherwise) have cooled down a little so it's more bearable.
Keep you posted.!!
