Collaboration ミヽ（。＞＜）ノ

When I need to collaborate with other people that I don’t know that well, it becomes a lot harder for me. Since I’ve never really taken the time to meet and get to know other people, it’s a lot harder to work with them. So, my goal for this semester will definitely be to step out of my comfort zone a little bit, and try to meet some new people. Maybe try to work better with other people that I don’t know as well. It’ll definitely benefit me, so I’m willing to try.

Personal Awareness and Responsibility (┳Д┳)

I don’t advocate for myself all that much, surprisingly. Of course, I SHOULD be doing that, because it’s good for me. But at the same time it feels kind of wrong to do so. So, this semester, I’m going to try and advocate for myself more. It should’ve been something I was doing in the first place, but I was self-deprecating at certain points, so THAT’S MY EXCUSE.

Creative Thinking °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

If you were to ask me whether or not I thought I was creative, I wouldn’t have an answer for you. Some could CONSIDER me creative, but that’s about it. Personally, I want my ideas to be more unique. More original. So for this semester, I’m going to try and find something that can light up that creative part of me, so I’m more satisfied with my ideas.

Why Japanese?

inspiration ! ☆

What really inspired me to learn Japanese was how interesting I found it. Both the culture and the language interest me, and I wanted to learn more about both. I also thought it was the most interesting out of the three language choices we were given (not the the others AREN’T interesting). Anime also may or may not be a smaller reason I wanted to learn the language. But we don’t talk about that.

goal ! ☆

I want to be able to at least READ Hiragana. Basic enough, but it’s my goal. And getting there’s been kind of easy so far. We’ve learned a lot of it after all. A side thing might be annoying my sister by talking to her in Japanese because she’s fed up with me, but that’s another thing we don’t talk about!!

motivation ! ☆

Keeping myself motivated throughout the course might be a little bit of a challenge. But, I’m willing to push myself by studying as much as I can. If I do find that I’m struggling, I’m definitely going to use some flex blocks for the class. Whatever it takes to learn!!
