Most of One of Those Days...

Today was just one of those days where nothing goes right... for the most part. I was doing fine until lunch. After some messy eating, I found out that I had a kanji test in Basic Japanese. Level 4 kanji tests are usually 20 new kanji for writing and about 30 new kanji for reading. Not something I'm able to pull off in twenty minutes right before class. That said, I managed to get 11/15, and two of those points were due to my own inattentiveness and the rule I keep forgetting about with 送り仮名 (the syllabary characters after words with kanji). As a bonus, I also didn't have time to find out what any of the words meant, which killed me later in class, as today - coincidentally? - was the first time we actually did anything relating to the meanings of words on the tests. I swear the teachers are psychic or something. Maybe they're ninja. Psychic ninja?

Unfortunately, I also forgot to do the eight-page packet we were assigned over the weekend. Oh, and research someplace in Japan to want to go. Oh, and read the assigned parts of the book. Oh, and... actually, I think that's it. Normally, forgetting to do your homework wouldn't be such a painful experience, but when class drags out for three hours, it's at least three times as agonizing.
