new blog!

新しいブログを始まりました！
i started another blog to help myself with my japanese studies. it's riddled with grammatical errors and probably sounds like a 3 year old wrote it, but it's there if anyone wants to read it (and maybe help me correct it :) )
i mostly started it because i just need practice forming sentences in japanese. i'm getting pretty good at reading and listening, but my speaking is HORRIBLE. i want to practice, but i'm so bad at it that i feel i need to work my way up to talking to actual japanese people. so far my interactions are limited mostly to sales people, and while i'm a fricken expert at ordering at starbucks, i kinda want to have a real conversation maybe. there are so many teachers i work with that would probably be really fun to talk to, and i just freeze up whenever i try. it's really frustrating.
i'm also learning lots of new grammar patterns and whatnot, and i want to practice them so i can apply them later. good times.

here's the link!
