Past two days have been really mild weather-wise, mild enough for just a t-shirt and cardigan. Such weather never lasts too long though, lest we take it for granted. Started drizzling last night and still is now. Thankfully it doesn't seem as cold as the previous weeks when it rained - the winds on those days were amazing, seemingly defying gravity to carry the raindrops almost horizontally.
Still need to get an umbrella. And maybe boots or wellingtons. All my shoes are getting stinky thanks to rainy days ugh.

Time's flying by nowadays. Even had a midterm test yesterday and it just hits me: am I really halfway through 1 semester? Not quite yet I guess (5 weeks outta 15 weeks) but almost there. Friends back in NUS are actually almost done with their semester though; Facebook statuses have been full of exam-related comments heh. 時間が早く立つね！Translation: Time flies by quickly.Learnt this courtesy of Yoshi during the Takaosan hike.
My Japanese stillllllll has an unimaginably long way to go, but recently at Chofu, I've been slowly being able to guess more and more of what's being said. Still very difficult though - grammar is one thing, though usually the meaning can be guessed from the main word; but lack of vocabulary simply stumps conversations, because if you don't know the word, you just don't. Working on it though! =)
