I started Japanese classes yesterday. As expected, I’m the worst student in class. It’s hard for me to be in a class that focuses primarily on conversation: I’m a visual learner so I need I need to see the words to memorize them. I only “get it” once I’m studying on my own afterwards. Humbling experience.
The day after the class, I started doing comics using the few words of Japanese I learned.
You’ll find below the first ever bilingual English-Japanese Old Pond comic!

I love it!
I’m looking forward to the second class. Coming up: days of the weeks, color, numbers, how to tell time… It feels like I’m in first grade again (but in a different country, with a different language)!
がんばって (ganbatte) with your Japanese studies! It’s tough, but it’s worth it! (*^_^)v
Thanks. I’m looking forward to the second class, but I’m also freaking out a little: I know the more you progress, the more difficult it gets. Thanks for your kind words.
Fantastic! Love the sock!
