さくぶん！
ミラさん！
おげんきですか？E-メイルをもらいました。ほんとですか。はるやすみにニューヨークへきますね？うわーー！すごい！いっしょにあさごはんをたべましょうか？コロンビアだいがくはとてもおもしろいところです。そしてとてもべんりなところです。コロンビアはちかてつのえきがあります。エンパーヤーステートビルへいたことがありますか？エレベーターのきっぷはあまりやすくないですが、エンパーヤーステートビルはとてもたかくて、おもしろいです。私の春やすみはまだですから、クラスにいかなければなりません。たいへんですね？でも、ちかてつはをかくことができます。１１６ちょうめのえきからペンステーションまでいてください。つぎに、タクシでペンステーションからエンパーヤーステートビルへいてください。わかりましたか？やさしいですね？しんぱいしないでください！
じゃまた！

I'm thinking that maybe Columbia should consider a new mascot! Keep an eye out for these guys. I saw this one and two others sitting up in a tree today.

Especially Quick
This is going to be an exceptionally quick post because I have an extreme amount of work to do, but I can manage to procrastinate the tiniest bit longer to say that I'm totally exhausted and I haven't even been busy this weekend. Lame.
Sleeping late is the best thing in the world, and I didn't get to do ANY this weekend. :'(
Um...
Japan Fact Time!!
!!!
Did you know:
*Japan consists of a group of over 3000 islands, 4 of which take up 97% of its total landmass
*Japan has the worlds 10th largest occupation (128 Million people)
*Mount Fuji is a Volcano
*Japan is the 30th most densely populated country in the world
*70 to 80 percent of the country is unusable for agricultural or industrial use because of the landscape--making the cities in Japan some of the most densely populated in the world
*Shinto is the indigenous religion of Japan
*Japan has one of the highest life expectancy rates in the world (81.25 years)
*The Japanese population is literally aging, since fewer women are having children. (Imagine the opposite of what's going on in Africa.)
*There is a language spoken in Hokkaido named "Ainu" that is moribund, or dying. Very few people still speak it, and only in a tiny region, but it does still exist.
*The two most competitive universities in Japan are the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University
*In Japan compulsory education is elementary and middle school (6-15), but most students follow that with a 3 year high school education, and then about 75% go to university, junior college, trade school, or other post-secondary institution.
*Japan's National Anthem is "Kimi Ga Yo," or "May Your Reign Last Forever." It is one of the shortest national anthems in use.
Thanks Wikipedia!

May your reign
Continue for a thousand,
eight thousand generations,
Until the pebbles
Grow into boulders
Lush with moss.

Catform FTW.
Hm... I'm behind yet again in posting. So let me think of something interesting to talk about to keep my mind off the fact that I'm about to die workload-wise. ("Go Jackie! You can do it! *cheer, cheer*") Mostly I'm just lamenting that the new World of Warcraft patch is out now and that I can't play because I have to work. T_T My family isn't going to see much of me during this Thanksgiving...there are instances to be conquered.
ZUL'AMAN, I'm COMING!!!
I guess I might as well blab about world of warcraft. If you've never played, I can see why some people might find it amazing that it can take up so much time, but the fact is, the game sort of swallows your life if you want to be even remotely good at it, sadly.
If you've never read Mac Hall before, here's a good time to start, because the comic is completed. It's about this guy named Ian and his college friends and all their strange adventures together, often including lots of jokes on particular video or PC games. I particularly like it because it reminds me an awful lot of my own high school friends, especially my buddy Geoff, who, additionally, made me want to take Japanese in the first place. (and introduced me to Mac Hall, too.)
Anyway, the point is, I started reading Mac Hall before I started playing Warcraft. When I read this comic,
http://machall.com/view.php?date=2005-06-28
I really had no idea what in the hell Helen (the girl, obviously) was talking about. I don't blame you for not knowing either. (In fact, if you DO understand, I'll be amazingly surprised...)
SO! I will use my amazing WoW knowledge to attempt to translate.
"WC run": WC is a dungeon called Wailing Caverns. A run of WC simply means that you got a group of other players to do the dungeon with you. (It's not possible to do a dungeon alone.)
"Horde Alt": There are two factions in Warcraft, Alliance and Horde. You choose at the beginning of the game whether you would rather be good or evil (Alliance or Horde). An alt is simply a character that isn't the one you usually play, since you can have multiple characters in the same world.
"Shammy": A shaman: A type of character that one can create that is often invited to groups because of their potential to support the group with many group-oriented skills. (Hard to explain.)
"Breaking Sheeps": "Sheeping" is an ability used by mages to literally transform one enemy into a sheep during a battle. This means that until the "sheep" wears off, that enemy can't attack you. Breaking a sheep means you attacked an enemy that was previously sheeped, making it pop back into its normal, aggressive state.
"Pulling Aggro": Aggro is what causes a player to be attacked. In a well-organized dungeon, only one specific character of the group of (normally) 5 should be attacked, and that is the one with the most armor. It isn't good for a shaman to pull aggro because then the healer has to focus on both the tank (the one with most armor, who should be pulling aggro) and the shaman as well. Also, if the shaman were to pull too many enemies and die, the group has a higher chance of all dying, and having to start over.
"ninjas on the boss loot roll": Bosses in higher level dungeons drop loot when they are killed. To "ninja" on a boss loot roll is to steal the loot dropped by a boss by intentionally rolling higher than necessary.
Now that you have a basic introduction to WoW, I think I'll leave you alone.
If you need any help, let me know.
