To Italy again?

Ya minna~ (-.0)/

The Italian embassy has opened applications for study grants to Italy (similar to the one I did before).

I'm heavily considering to go. Of course, depending on where I'd be working during the study period, I'd have to quit that job. Or this job. I MISS U ITALY (+_+)

Next is to consider which grant to take. The simplest would be to take the same one as I did before, (three-month language study course) but hopefully, I'll get the "C" level during the entrance exam. Last time, I had the chance to go to the "C" level, but I chose "B" instead since my main aim was to tour around Italy. The certs from the "C" level can be used when one applies for jobs etc. The classes are harder though. I'm not sure how those certs would be used in Malaysia though. (-ω- )

Since the age limit is 35, I should go as often as I can. hahaha p(*＾-＾*)q

I dunno if the three-month language study grant for Japan is still available though.

I REALLY NEED A BREAK T____T

The pressure at the office is escalating, my team leader wants to see progress THIS WEEK, especially because the firm's Managing Director from the UK is here T___T

This means that I'll have to wake up at 4am to pad up unfinished work T___T

I'm also considering getting another job, but the thought of working in yet another office kinda scares me @___@ I'm scared this would repeat itself. But at the same time, there's a chance that it wouldn't. I dunno what to think anymore lllorzlll

Still wondering how to tell my parents that I want to quit my job, avoid nagging to become a government servant, trying to become an animator (probably after going to Italy) and learning animation basics and making an art portfolio while having a temporary job? @___@

Or maybe I should make a manga and send it to the Gempak editor and try my luck. hahaha. My friend who works there said that the competition is tough though. @__@ I don't mind the competition, but between the upcoming Japanese test (Ive barely studied for it), miserable salary(wo)man life and potential family problems, I haven't the time to make one at the moment. But I'd really like to try.

I'm kinda anxious to talk about it with my dad >_> I hope he'll understand. Maybe that way it'll be easier to break the news to my mum. @___@

Sorry for the rants and stuff, needed an outlet orz. My brain's gonna explode @__@

Sigh. I wanna be an aniuta no kashu.

Take care all <(_ _)>

Japanese class, JLPT, bye bye translation job

Ya minna~ ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ

Remember when I said that I was trying out for a translator position?

Well, scratch that. ｢(ﾟﾍﾟ)　エットォ…

Although I did get a reply from them, as they sent me a short translation test to do,
a friend of mine, who went to an interview at the same company,
albeit for a different position,
found out that this company does not provide SOSCO, EPF or any other benefits.
You know, the things you need when you actually retire @__@
Aside from the RM 2,000 flat pay, there's a high chance that
one has to continue working at home. (and the working time is 9am-7pm)

.......ｶﾞ━━Σ(ﾟДﾟ|||)━━ﾝ!!

.....So no thanks. I'll pass. ﾁｬｳ(･_･ 三･_･)ﾁｬｳ
I'll have to ignore the said e-mail reply by the said firm to avoid any possibility of being called for an interview (-ω- )
But that was quite a let-down though.
And just when I thought things were getting better after I received the reply, too.
But it's okay.
At least the location of my current workplace makes it easier for me to go to Japanese classes d(^_^)　ねっ
I'll just concentrate on reaching the target and on Japanese language for the moment.
Reaching the target....adoi. X__X

I even subscribed to the P1 Wimax Internet connection to avoid going back so late at night.
Going back earlier, I wanted to do vocal practice while I do work. LOL.
But the connection has been unstable these few days, which piled up more work for me because I couldn't even go online to do work ―(T_T)→ ｻｸｯ
And that makes the Internet-connection-at-home plan redundant OTL
I can still return it and get my refund if it's still being tsundere by Saturday night ( e_e)
*slipper attacks modem* ( ・_・)⌒°=θ☆( >_<) パコ
I wonder if I should try Maxis or something hrrrmmm ｢(ﾟﾍﾟ)　エットォ…

----------

Yesterday I took a placement test,
to determine whether I qualify to go straight to the
Intermediate 2 class, based on the recommendation of the person (my future teacher) who answered my queries.
I still prefer JLSM, cause the customer service is waaaaaaaayy better (._.)
I miss Joe-san and the guy who's always helping him at the counter!
Maybe I should use registering for JLPT as an excuse to meet them.
LOLOLOL!! (￣▽￣)ノ＿彡☆バンバン！!

The place was quite noisy, due to the music from a nearby shopping mall.
Plus, there was a girl sitting for a placement test for a different level,
she keeps making "thinking" sound effects lawl O3O;;;;
I don't blame her, but I couldn't concentrate every time she does that haha ＿|￣|○
So I stuffed my ears with JAM Project music <3
And voila! Concentration up 10000000000000000000infinityX <3
Mainly two questions confused me, but overall it was okay.
The whole test covered everything I learnt in my previous class.
Since I still remember everything, Edward Sensei is one awesome teacher ne!
Sensei, arigatouuuuuu~ (*≧▽≦)♪
I need to belanja him makan one of these days haha <3

I hope my class will be filled with people who's willing to speak in Japanese! :D
It will be quite a short class, 1 & half months.
I love my previous class, but they all spoke in their mother tongue in class, so not much oral practice except with Sensei. OTL
After passing the test, I'm considering going to JFKL instead (if i can fulfill the prerequisites lawl). ♪(ﾉ´∀｀*)ﾉ

Oh! I just received a call saying that I passed my Japanese language placement test woohoo! YAY! I'll work hard for the test (*≧▽≦)~♪

N3DS is out in Japan! It was hacked within 24 hours of launch. I WANT ONE ORZ!~
Initially I wanted the Xperia phone, but i figured the Sony NGP would be waaaaaaaaaaaayy awesomer. Now I'm having a dilemma as which one to get when the better versions come out. Maybe I'll get them one by one. LAWL IWASHI YOU GREEDY FANGIRL YOU <3

I saw on Animelo 2010 videos recently that my dear Enchan was wearing the same costume he wore during AFA 2010. Got close-up shots too <3
OOOOHHH THE MEMORIES <3 <3 <3 *happy*

Enough blabbering! I need to have dinner lawl.

Take care all!!!! <(_ _)>

Trip to Perhentian (part 2)

Ya mina! (^0^)/

since i don't have a lot of time to update, I'll keep the stuff on the trip as short as possible (slowly tho haha).

- on the speed boat on the way to Perhentian, sitting in front is fun but make sure ur butt has proper padding (cushion) underneath it. Gets really bouncy yo~ I even screamed superobo attacks when we moved full speed ahead woo!
- The chalet was nicer than the one that our friends got...at least we had two working fans and two working fuses :P
- Mr Leong doesnt understand "girl problem" when my friend said she cant go snorkelling. =_=;;; MEN. >_>
- The corals were nice <3 there were brain-shaped one and lots of colours lawl. I touched a mushroom coral (they brought it up) yaaay.

*on another note, ganbatteiru for my self-learning Japanese journey eyaaargh >A< Bought Minna no Nihongo II books!

ok till next updates <3

Take Care! <(_ _)>

Company Trip, random stuff, Japanese class

Ya minna! (^o^)/

you might have noticed the lack of Japanese emoticons in my blogs. The reason? Since the previous office PC i used got busted, the one they replaced it with (which is also just as slow) doesn't have East Asian languages installed. Meaning, I can't read my husband's (Endoh Masaaki) blogs. I'M VERY UPSET ARGH =______= OF ALL THE JOYS TO TAKE AWAY FROM ME!? =A=

Speaking of which, my husband looks even more hawter now. He definitely worked out for that single. And now the on the new JAM Project album he looks so so so so so SO HOT GYAAAA *A* I love the new songs =w= YAPPARI JAMPRO GA AISURUUUUUUU *faints*

Aaaaanyway. I feel so weird these few days? Like there's some kind of void @_@ I don't get it. Neh. Just stupid kiddy meaningless sensations.

I'm going on a bus to Pulau Perhentian on a company trip =w= I haven't been on a real vacation in years! This is gonna be so awesome! 8D Time to refresh myself lawl! Beaches here I coooome!!!! 8D yaaaaay. I wonder if they have karaoke parlors there. Of course no Yumekukan orz.

Yumekukan. Siiiiiiiiiiigh. lawl

Apparently the basic 2 class at the place I'm studying will start earlier than expected (on 11 June). With most of the students still doubtful due to the hiked prices and all, I wonder how many of my old classmates will return (._.) High chances are I'm not going back there tho. As much as I love that place. Sensei, I'm gonna miss you so much~

take care <(_ _)>
