You know November 7th has always been a special day for me. I explained this on my old blog two years ago. I really don't know why, it might just be that I remember the date. But this year it didn't disappoint.
Well if you heard the news you would know about what's going on right now. I GOT INTO THAT KOBE UNIVERSITY PROGRAM! Oh yeah, and Trump won, again. But I GOT IN! Honestly, I'm so fucking happy and grateful that I'm able to spend a whole month in Japan next year. I've worked very hard on my Japanese skills this year, and I'm hoping that this will continue to push me in the right direction. Studying overseas has been on my bucket list for most of my life, so I'm very happy to finally try it out in January. I'm a very lucky person. I'll post about my plans for it on Sunday, what I'll be doing and that sort of thing.
As for my Japanese exam on Tuesday, I think it went well, to be honest. I don't think I did super duper well or anything. But I defiantly did pass at least, which would be awesome if I did. Like I said before, I've worked really hard all year on my Japanese skills and it would be awesome to pass this exam.
Speaking of exams, on December 1st I have JLPT (Japanese Learning Proficiently Test). One of my goals this year was to pass my N5 test. Which is a certificate to say that you can read Japanese. I know N5 doesn't mean much, but I want the validation.
With studying Japan in January, doing well on my University exam, and JLPT in December. Things are going really good for me, very exciting time ahead.
Or is it. well, I can't ignore the red elephant in the room. Trump won. Again. While I'm not an American, I think everyone understands the significance of the American president, and what a second Trump presidency means for the world. I'm not going to lie to anyone, I'm fucking terrified. Not of him, but the Republican ghouls that are about to enter the white house. Anyone with half a brain knows that Project 2025 is their goal, doesn't matter what Trump claims. I'm scared about what this means for the rest of us in the world. How their policies will trickle down to us. If the US starts a trade war with everyone and crashes their economy, what happens if the US retreats to isolationism again. How Trump will kill any action on climate change that Biden has started. Whatever happens, I'm just scared about the world.
See ya
