I just wanted to post a small update. School is rolling along, it's been kind of though week. We had a test on big kanji test on monday, a big "grammar test" on tuesday and then another medium-sized kanji test on wednesday.
This says:
いつも いつも×１００ とてもすばらしいです (^_^) 中国人より漢字がよく分かりますネ ずっといのまま。。。 m( _ _ )m
Which means:
Always always 100% Very magnificent You understand kanji better than chinese people don't you? [I don't really understand this]
We will have learned more than 100 kanji on tuesday next week so I will do a blog-post then to celebrate that! In other news, we got a bank-account yesterday. Most banks here require that you have been in Japan for 6 months but we managed to get an account with Shinsei Bank in Shinjuku. It's a really awesome bank, super-friendly and they spoke english well and everything.
I didn't plan on opening a Japanese bank-account at first, I thought that my bank would just withdraw a €3 fee every time I withdrew money, but apparently they take a pretty high percentage on currency conversion as well! On top of that, you need a Japanese bank-account to get a gym-membership and a bunch of other stuff so it's just good to have.
Cya around!
