   Back again ^-^
hi there…it´s been nearly a month since I last posted…well, it mostly was because I had my exams last week...and I had to learn. Not that I really DID learn so much, but well, fortunately I passed all the exams and now the first year at university is over. It was a really cool time, I have quite a bunch of new friends and collegues and the best is, most of them share the same hobby: manga and anime ^____^
a week before the exams Linkin Park had their first concert in Switzerland and I was there with some friends of mine...it was AWESOME!!! ^___^ They played some songs of the new album and some of the old ones....it was really cool...and me and my friends were nearly in front of them.,..hehe...well, it was sure a cool experience there. I was really lucky to get a ticket, because when my friends told me, there wasn´t any more available, but I could get one through ricardo.ch (you could say a version of ebay in Switzerland). So, luckily I could get a ticket and went to the concert *_____*
well then I watched a lot of anime lately...I finished some 10 series or so...whenever I got tired of learning, I watched anime...and as you probably know, when you watch an anime series, an episode often ends leaving you thinking: WTF? Wanna know what happens next!!! So you just have to watch more until you nearly watched the whole series...and then I realised: oops, I should´ve learned...-_- but anyway.
The exam week was horrible. First was grammar. Grammar is the horror of every language, I never managed to be good in grammar, no matter what it was, German, French, English...nah. But I passed this exam, like I said. This exam was from the birdy teacher (as you may know, I hate her quite a lot). The assistents of the japanese studies realized, that in the old exam (the one we had last semester) was very difficult and way too long. Some 40 % didn´t pass the exam back than (I fortunately did). So they decided to do a part of this exam now, it was in a multiple choice way, so you could spare some time. So everybody thought, cool, now I at least can have one third of the exam without porblems. But then comes the birdy teacher, with a huge grin from one ear to another, and tells us, we would´ve been better off with her exam, because one error in her exam is -0.5 point. An error in the exam part of the assistens will cost us 4 points. We were really shocked...just imagine, the questions of the assistens may be easy, but what if you have a blackout or just happen to be so nervous you answer incorrect? Then you lose 4 points!! It was really mean. And you could see it in her face, she really was enjoying it. The other exams were OK. Though I have to say, I passed Kanji with the minimum of points you could have. My teacher told me, she gave me some points (so theoratically, I wouldn´t have passed this exam), because I was good during this semester and I was really good in the last exam....She is really a nice teacher!!! If it wouldn´t have been because of her, I probably would have had some exams to repeat...(and I have to say, I really didn´t learn ANYTHING for this exam. It´s a miracle I don´t have to repeat it...this teacher really must like me...hehe, but then again, she is really an angel, I can tell you!).
So now I have holiday...it´s really strange, since now I don´t have to go everyday to Zürich and learn all the time. But now I have to search a job, because I want to go to Japan next year...I thought of going to a language course or something like this, for at least two or three weeks. So it won´t be much time I will spend there, but Japan is expensive, so I´ll have to collect some money until then...I hope I find something for this vacation...At least now I have some time to draw again. I was really sad because lately I couldn´t draw anything bacause I was busy with grammar and translation stuff for the exams...u_u I had a lot of ideas (this is always the same: when I have time to think about it, to draw and to write down everything that comes to my mind, there is no idea anywhere. But when I´m busy learning for exams or doing something, there they come...!!!).
Hopefully I sometime soon can upload some pics...(not that there would be a lot of them, but anyway, it has been a while since I last uploaded a pic...).

I hope you guys are doing fine, I´m sorry I didn´t comment on your sites for such a long time, I certainly will comment again, and don´t think I forgot about you...in fact I caught myself thinking, ah, what does this and this person of myo at the moment... he or she is surely doing this and that...it was really strange. Hmmm...well...this is a long post I just realized (it´s always the same when I´m off for such a long time).
So, have a good time and see ya around (hope you didn´t forget about me) ^_______^
