That makes no sense as it literally translates to "a Japanese car," but what the heck, I am just now learning Japanese so go easy on me kudasai.
Not much been going here besides school which is all right (except calculus D: ).
Andyway(!), mata atode!

Wow. Haven't had a chance to get on DA so much; my last journal entry was in....July? haha
Well, Japan was AMAZING FKJHGFDSDFGH. So beautiful and life-changing. I am definitely going to live there at some point. :D
On another note, school started (!) and so far it is manageable (except calculus sgjhsgdj). I am having a blast so far this year; let's hope it continues!

...amazing and at the same time so disgustingly cathartic and in a perverse way, genuinely depressing. Nabokov is a literary mastermind and after pondering his style for quite some time declare him an absolutely supercalifragilistically utter and complete genius. Who knew someone who learned English as a second language could write such woeful, sickening and compelling works of such sublime merit. Now, I am one who lavishes in the dulcet company of a plethora of deep, rich adjectives (Who'da thunk?) that thoroughly convey a veritable prism of different moods, feelings, and effects, like the lexicon found in Lolita, but some find this tedious and actually frown upon such verbose and eccentric style. For shame! I am glad I chose good books to read and really take the time to do background checks and searches (like an interview;how winsome (sneer all you want)) on their content and actual readability. Otherwise I may end up reading Dean Koontz or heaven forbid Stephanie Meyer (I dodged a bullet kids). That being said lets move on to some more required reading! (~mock excitement~ yaaay...) Maybe I can squeeze in some Nietzsche before summer is through, figuratively of course (my god Vladimir, what have you done?! ~weeps~).
So that's two (2) books down. Tehee. I'm also determined to read "Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking glass," simply because that new Tim Burton rendition of it is coming out and looks awesome. Maybe some James Fenimore Cooper if I have time as well. ;D Best be off, loves. Much to do and loads to see!
