[04.12.2011]

Livejournal is pretty much dead - and tumblr for me lacks warmth.
Therefore! I created a blog here instead.

I am a Japanese Studies degree student in my first year at Oxford Brookes University!
So far I am enjoying it very much, I had a gap year in which I discovered that if I am not learning then I simply am not happy so University has been welcomed as the next phase of my life.

Although it'll soon be the end of semester one and I'm going to miss my English top up module seminar Lecturer because she was a good lecturer and I felt I learnt a lot from her. Not to mention for one assessment it required me to read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, two stories I had been meaning to read for years and simply never had. Having read them now, I can defiknately say they lived up to expectation and shall no doubt be re-reading them over the Christmas holidays.

However Japanese is my main focal point!
For those wondering why I would want to learn the language, it's because to me it's a beautiful language, and Japan is an interesting country. My obvious love for Japanese music has fueled this there is no doubt about it.
I'm pretty interested in the Visual Kei scene, although anything that's more rock (and metal) than pop grabs my attention almost immediately.

Currently I have been listening to Galneryus, 摩天楼オペラ, and ギルガメッシュ.


Until next time, Sleep tight.
