lj-music: Chuugoku Nekonron daikessen! Okite yaburi no geki – Kessen! Hashi no Kabe
Yesterday we had a blackout for about 5 minutes, thought it was around midday. Computer shut off badly, but it was fun upon turning back on again. Perhaps a UPS would be handy, seeing as how things like this do happen regularly.
Graduated from my beginners Greek class, and got 99% correct (just around five mistakes throughout the whole paper). As expected, there were more errors in the written section, but surprisingly I did manage to put out some coherent sentences there. Maria was impressed by my knowledge of the language, and even showed it to her mum and sister.
We all went out as a group to Τα τρια Χουρούνια, or, The Three Pigs. Had a hot choc there and we chatted for a long time, Voula was interested in my writing seeing as I wrote about it in every ‘personal dialog’ that we wrote. She was impressed, as were the others who were listening (the music was very loud, leading to deaf ears at some point). We gave her some chocolates before she left, and she was quite moved. I hope we get her as our teacher again for the Intermediate class, as she was very good and an inspiration to us all.
Talking of writing, Maria and I were discussing my stories, and then asked me if I created any original characters… Well, that was the end of good sleep, we talked for 4 hours about the teenage/young adult book I had in my mind. I discussed each individual character in detail and their description, personality, and abilities. Suffice to say, she loved the whole idea, and insisted I go through with writing it. I’ve already written bios for the four main characters, and one day I would like to write a full book of this.
