Writer's Block: At the Hour of Preference

[ariesxleo]

[Error: unknown template qotd] 2 o'clock in the morning? It's the best time to make a prank call...  =P

Um... probably in the afternoon... ideal time to do whatever it suits my mood... and school's usually out too ^_^

I'm so bored that I ended up doing this writer's block thingy T_T... well there just isn't anything new here... -.-' Same ole Saturdays just go by with me volunteering in the library then reading like 3-hours worth of books in the afternoon... =_=

Though I did watch this nice French movie... what was it called again? Fauteuils d'orchestre... I thought I'd be improving my French by watching the entire movie... except I went on and enjoyed the whole movie and understood zero French. =_= Oh well, I can just complain when I walk into French III next year...

rele, someone out there with supernatural powers... whatever you have, make my days just a bit eventful! =_=

How many languages do you know? (I admire people who know many languages ;))

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

Um... Chinese was my first language... and then I learned English starting first grade, then I moved to the US...

I learned French here at school [... was actually forced to...=_=], and I'm trying to learn some Japanese recently...

So, that makes 3 and half? ^^

What about u?

[snowaltz]

I see! I think French is a very romantic language. It's one of languages I'm interested in, other that Japanese and Latin.

Good luck with Japanese! It's a really useful language, especially that we're in Japanese-related fandoms ;)

For me, I'm a Chinese, so Chinese is my mother tongue and something I learnt in school and home. But the last time I studied the language in school is about 6 years ago, heh. I still speak it at home everyday.

English is a language that I've also been learning in school since young. And we usually use English in school here so I'm quite fluent in it. (Though sometimes my grammar goes all wonky, heh =P)

As for Japanese, I just started taking lessons less than 2 months ago, so I still have a very long way to go in learning the language.

lol, I chose French over Spanish because I thought it was a very romantic language... it's similar to English... in a way

Thank you, and yeah, Japanese is very useful when it comes to our fandoms ^^

The last time I studied Chinese was 4 years ago... though I can still read it and speak it at home, I can barely write anything anymore T_T

Lol, for me that would be night...I only really wake at midnight or something~ The only time where I don't have anything to do~
Hyu~ I don't know any Frensh XD; and we're living so close to the border, too...the teacher in Elementary school ruined it for me..so I took Latin when I was faced with the choice XD

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

I wish I can wake up at night... since stuff happens at midnight in my neighborhood all the time, and I always sleep though it.. =_= I heard once there was a fight in the neighborhood at 2 in the morning, and I missed the whole thing...

I wish I can learn German here... but they only offer French and Spanish T_T... and I chose it bc it's a pretty romantic language^^, plus everyone else was taking Spanish for some odd reason...

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Oha? Well, it's more like I can't sleep, so it mostly isn't that nice..*misses a lot of sleep*
Lol, when I'm sleeping though I miss everything XD there can be an earthquake or loud music and I'll never notice~
Uhum ^^ oh well, German is really difficult if I can judge at all XD grammar and stuff...
Yeah...I think Spanish is in or something, we can't take it at our school, but a lot of people wanted to...

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

hmm... missing a lot of sleep is not really good... look who's talking, =_= I slept at 2 for the past week

same here =P ... I can never wake up even an earthquake comes, though that's probably not a good thing...

Oh? Is German really grammatically difficult? I guess Spanish must be in, since our school had to hire extra teachers for that class... =_=

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Lol, yeah~ I go to sleep at that time usually, too ^^;
Yeah...it's dangerous and I always need my mother to wake me a few times until I even realize she was there...apparently I actually tell her I'll get up or switch off the alarm without me being able to remember later on XD
I think so, yeah ^^; every noun has articles you have to remember (well, in three genders) and there are so many exceptions to everything (hell, even we have troubles in German classes XD; but more with the professional words than the actual grammar...)
Guess so *nods*

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

I had to have my mom check whether I woke up or not three times every morning during the school year... =_= But since it's my summer holiday, I really just sleep as long as I want... =P

Wow, guess that does sound complicated... I already have enough trouble keeping up with my French classes -.-'

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Lol, yeah~ I wish my parents would let me sleep...but somehow they don't like it if I sleep longer than 'till 2pm or something *pouts* well, I would sleep all day, I managed to sleep until 5 pm once, before getting woken XD
^^ yeah, I guess...man, I'm glad it's my mother-tongue~ I have no idea how difficult or easy Frensh is though~
Only had Italian classes...but damn, at the beginning it's all easy and then after 3 years or something it turns out to be so difficult...XD; so I dropped the lessons~

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

oh same here, my mom even phone me at like 11am today just to make sure that I got up already -.-'

the first year of French was ok... but then things got difficult since I can never remember the different form of the irregular verbs =_=... well, I'm still trying for next year, but unless I got super excellent in class next year, I don't think I can take the French V... [our school skips French IV for no reason at all... wait, is that the "four" symbol or is it VI? ]

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah...at least today they forgot until 3pm XD yay~
Aha? I guess it gets dificult, too...
^^ yup, that's the right one~ VI is 6 *took Latin*

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

lol, I always mix VI and IV up, -.-' and I almost failed my history exam once since I keep writing down the wrong king... =_= [I realized later that Edward IV and Edward VI are two very different kings -.-']

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Lol XDDD I did mix up numbers in an English exam and wrote about a completely different king...I got a surprisingly good grade though, especially since I hadn't studied at all..

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

Wow, good job! ^^ I can always fail a paper about Kings if I don't study... *is really not good at history =_=*

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Meh, me neither...I guess it was just the bonus of writing in another language...but I didn't even know we had to study XD; otherwise I would have I guess~

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

Guess we are both not born to study history then =_=... I hate to memorize all the time lines when I studied world history...

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Gods, I hate that, too!
And our teacher is quite mean, too...
*sighs* well, only one year left for me ^^

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

*siiiiiigh*
that makes the two of us... and our teacher once made us recite some random timeline in front of the whole class... it was embarrassing... =_=
I have one more year of history class too... hopefully, Government and Economics don't require time line memorization... ^^;

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Lol, at least our teacher knows that we are no good in history at all (since we didn't want that subject in the first place anyway)
XD don't think so..you could always look it up anyway!

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

lol, true... I probably won't take history ever if not required by the school board... =_= *grumbles about my retarded school board*

Yep, guess I'll go google the Government and Economics course description ^^ the Internet sure is helpful...

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

XD; I can't even see your reply anymore...
Yeah....same here...
Oh, cool! I've never understood that kind of thing though~ teacher's fault I guess, we never learned anything

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

lol... I wonder if I can fix that... o.o

the course description? They're pretty much useless... except they have something like an outline of what we learn this year and a few practice question... =_= agreed, I never really learn anything from my teachers... =_=

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Hm..no idea..it just drifts more and more to the right XD;
Yeah...lol, same here~
We could stop taking some subjects last year, but that weren't quite much...
most teachers suck at teaching *nods*

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

yep... seems like it... well, I'll just let it drift I guess... ^^;

and agreed, sometimes I wonder why some of my teachers even bother to become teachers... I don't even think I know how to teach... =_=

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Lol, yeah~
I have no idea...maybe 'cause they get "a lot" of money not really XD; or they know that job from being taught themselves?

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

probably the latter ^^ ... or maybe they're just too lazy to find other jobs... =P

[kinoha.livejournal.com]

Yeah, probably both, ne?

[ouranwind.livejournal.com]

guess so~ XD
