ちょうどいいです。(it fit right)

Self Evaluation:
I have more confidence in my writing/reading skills.
However, I do need to do need to work on speaking-
That being said, I am trying to watch more japanese videos on youtube.
Japanese is getting more fun as I am learning more vocabulary!
I am excited to quickly immerse myself in Tokyo & go live the life and do my thing as mr。オー

Here are some photos from this semester:

Excited that Winter Break is coming up-
I usually go visit friends in the east coast during breaks because Cali is a bit far to go back & forth.
I am going to DC this winter break. Anyone have any recommendations for good eateries?
I'm looking for those hidden mom & pop shops with the greasy wholesome foods. (none of that healthy alternative nonsense)

Say What? Yes, I'm improving my Japanese. I know I know. Bear with me-if not, read it as a poem. This upcoming week is going to be very hectic. I have an interview with Houlihan Lokey Investment Bank! Wish me luck. Go Big or Go Home right. Got to go stack that moneeeeyyy!

Hello! I am studying abroad in Tokyo Spring '09 and am very excited about it. I wanted to fully experience Tokyo and all that it has to offer. To prepare, I am taking an intensive Japanese Course. I am excited to learn some basics and be able to speak/read to some degree so I could eat well at restaurants, interact with my host family, and try a few pickup lines at clubs. In my first three weeks, I haven't found anything really difficult. However, I should stop trying to translating hiragana characters into english letters in order to read/write faster.


I am currently in the process of finding dj'in gigs at Tokyo clubs. I hope to show Tokyo my style in mixing hip-hop music. Make the place go bump! Here is one of my favorite Japanese Dj's:

Dj Kentaro.
