If any of you are taking the JLPT, good luck! Hopefully we can all pass (or at least me Smile

)

Good luck anyone sitting the test today! I'm skipping it this year, but planning to take it next July- better get studying actually, so many kanji, so little time!

Guess not many people took it

I re-did my 1kyuu, as I barely scraped by with my previous result. I feel confident that I passed...this year's test seemed significantly easier than when I last wrote it.

Quite a bit of drama though. Had 4 ejections (red cards) for a group of Chinese students who were blatantly cheating. One member of the group got in a verbal confrontation with the ejecting proctor; a steady string of Chinese mixed with Japanese insults (baka, shineba ii, mukatsuku, etc) ensued. I was laughing so hard that it really threw me off my game Smile

I took it in Yokohama.
They turned off the heat at lunch time and left the doors open. It was a chilly day.

In two years there are going to be five levels.
The new sankyu will be between the current second and third levels.

Took san-kyuu for the 2nd time. Barely didn't pass last time so I'm hopeful, but didn't get to study. Was adopted by a stray kitten last week who thinks I'm now 'Mommy'.
