La Soirée Franco-Japonaise
Hey all!
Howza going? wow what a hectic week I had. Although I didn’t get much thing done, but circumstances made me achieve something better. Nothing much done on the day-to-day workload, but I managed to push myself to do something at work that I never done before. I like that. I like to work on something new. I guess my attention span on work is diminishing and I became like a kid. I need to be “entertained” with something new and challenging and not just play with the same ol thing.
Take food for example… I like to eat different food everyday. I don’t like to set on routine on what I eat and where I eat. Best highlight about food to me is to try new place to eat, new food to eat.
Same goes with work too.. I like to do new things at work, and doesn’t like to fall in the routine. I guess that is the problem I have now. My work currently falls into routine type. In addition, if it is a good routine time, that’s OK. But everytime people arround me made the same routine mistake. That’s kinda annoying.
I guess that is also the reason why I pick up japanese class. I want to do something different. And I am happy with it coz yesterday we had our first french-japanese meet up evening. It’s kinda refreshing. I think it is a good thing because it managed to break the ice amongst students in the class.
End of november I will pick up the MBA course.
People asked me why I picked up japanese or why I am doing MBA. They are thinking that maybe it’s kind of a requirement to do something (like getting a new job or moving to a new place). My answer is simple…. I want something different!
I got nothing special planned for this weekend. I’m afraid if I go downstairs (read:town), I might ended up shopping! hihihihi I might checkout a japanese store suggested by one of my japanese classmates.
I’m not a fan of manga ‘book’ (well maybe not yet). But I recalled my younger brother bought the doremon books/comics when he was a kid.
I discovered that at least my classmates who are sitting near me last night, are avid fans of all japanese. They can recite the name of their all time favorite manga, they have their cds of japanese musics, they have ONLY japanese songs in their ipod. It’s crazy!
We made a round turn of what is your all time favorite manga, and when it came to my turn.. I just said, I dunno.. that’s what I’m here for. I want to know what so great about manga and what is good. hehehe… They gave me quite a list of manga titles. My classmates appreciate that I asked them and they are so open on giving me advice on all thing japanese. And they are 100% french!!! We talked to some japanese (they are mostly students). I noticed that they are too a bit lost when the french talked about the manga titles. Well one thing, french speaks fast for them to follow, the other thing, french do not realize that the title in french or english is different from japanese.
Same goes like the A team series, in french it is call Agence Tous Risque (hahahah, and the generic song has lyric mind you!)
Anyway, it’s refreshing to me and something great to end my hectic week day!
later yall!
