大きな目標:日本語を勉強する。
I have my 7級 test on February 7th. I want to go through all the kanji and write the English definitions in my book so I can use my flight to study. I won't be able to take any more tests before I leave Japan, but I have looked up JLPT testing sites in Toronto so I can take that this year when I'm home. I will look for some Japanese classes or some language exchange or something to keep myself brushed up. I've already lost one language; I won't lose another! It doesn't seem like it's a very big goal to have, but it's something I've put off. And it's time consuming and I don't put as much effort in as I should. It's something I want to focus on this year and maybe I can find an outlet that will actually let me use what I've got.
小さな目標:家に朝食を食べる。
I spend so much money eating out/eating prepared food and after watching House Poor the other day, I realized I could be saving so much more for seeing my friends or traveling (or school) if I made a point of cooking more and with fresh food. At the very least, I should be eating cereal for breakfast instead of picking stuff up at the conbini every day. I usually get some fiber cracker/cookie things I can't remember the name of or a small Calorie Mate and a can of coffee; that adds up to about 1500 yen a week! Or more if I decide to go to 7-11 instead and get some breads. And it's also not healthy: a bad habit I need to break.
