A little about this blog...

I live and work in Tokyo, and speak the language pretty well, but my reading skills are still painfully weak. To study I read kid's books, but I am notorious for never making a decent attempt at memorizing vocabulary.
This is a blog where I'll put down the words I learn in everyday conversation, new situations, book chapters, etc. and their definitions, so I have an easy way of looking them up later.
Educational? Definitely! Boring? Most likely!
But if you're attempting to learn intermediate Japanese, why not study along with me? よろしく!

Kieru Souseijima part 1

Betcha thought I'd never come back! Well that almost makes two of us. ;)

but no, I'm just masochistic enough to take this seriously.
