Arigatoo, Roretta-chan...

anata no dengon wa watashi ni ureshii o mottekute agemashitaga, arigatoo gozaimashita.

(it means, "your message has brought me happiness, and I thank you.")

Wow...what a cumbersome language.

(Note: I am fluent in only one, while you are fluent in what? 3? I have no room to talk about such things)

Technically, 2, but I'm getting there. But it is ridiculously difficult. Listening and speaking, I mean. Writing is the least of my worries...I can take my time doing that. In fact, it took me 5 minutes to write that message because I had to find the words for "message" (dengon), happiness (ureshii..well, technically it's happy, but it's the same thing), and the verb "to bring"(mottekuru). The rest I was able to piece together. That said, I am so glad I took Japanese before coming here.

Trust me, you still got the looks, though.

Wait till you see me in a month! I've lost about 15 pounds since the spring.

I've been told that I would lose weight eating Japanese food, since the food has little fat and cholesterol...I haven't even checked the scales yet.

I have exercised by riding my bike to work every day that isn't raining and playing basketball. And I can guarantee you that when my mother sees me at Christmas, she'll try to fatten me up. Again.

Anyways, see you in a month or so!!!

When were you ever fat?

[galenide14.livejournal.com]

when I was a child, I was chubby...or should I say chubbier than every other kid. Then, as I got older, my mother thought I was becoming anorexic so she tried to fatten me up. Even now she thinks so.

[holly-evolving.livejournal.com]

Um. You're not anorexic, you're hot.

Ok, whacked in the head, but hot.

I have to send you a better picture...maybe one with my students.

but first, I must eat for it is lunch time now...I bought my bento, on the account that I didn't cook and it's hard to buy groceries with a sprained ankle....but it's getting better now.
