Tanoshikatta!
The first week of 2nd semester went pretty good. On Thursday I had my first Japanese conversation class since ages. Even though I had to adjust my ears it went OK. My teacher can only speak a few words Dutch, so during the class she speaks Japanese. Even though it’s confusing sometimes, I definitely like it because it keeps you tuned in :twinkle: 
I also had the introduction class of Japanese Urban Anthropology - and it turns out my (new) roommate also follows the same class!
I celebrated the nice week with a visit to the Touch of Latin theater show of Ruth Jacott together with my parents and big sister :saylove: 
I love Ruth Jacott’s songs because of the beautiful Dutch lyrics. Sometimes Dutch sounds so *ugyuuu* but when I listen to Ruth Jacott (or Bløf or Paul de Leeuw) I’m always amazed how Dutch songs can be pretty nice *sigh*
I bought a 100% Madrid guide to help me prepare my visit in April. It lists so much locations and fun things to do 
I told Klaas I bought the guide and asked him if he already visited some nice clubs. He thought it was a brilliant move and asked me if I could send him the guide! Like NO WAY ~ I don’t want him to go clubbing without me - besides it’s MY guide 
Hahaha~ oh well, I did promise that I would email him some interesting addresses…
Even though homework is taking up most of my time I decided to pick up knitting again. I finished the chunky garter stitch scarf some time ago and I’m wearing it almost every day. I’m working on a dark chocolate spring scarf, I may add stripes in another color or decorate it with buttons. I also started with my first book for the Read 12 Books in 2007 Challenge. It’s the Dutch translation of “Mischiefs of the Bad Girl” or “Travesuras de la niña mala” written by Mario Vargas Llosa (?) I’m really enjoying it!
