Sea, cé atá i Londain? Ní as an bpoll caca sin domsa! Tá mé anois tigh mo mháthar atá ina cónaí i sráidbhaile atá cúpla míle laisteas de Learpholl.
Yes, who's in London? I'm not from that cesspit! I'm at my mother's house now who lives in a village that's a few miles south of Liverpool.

Espero que me podría quedar más que diez horas en London cuando me largué España para regresar a Texas.
I wish I could have stayed more than ten hours in London when I left Spain to return to Texas.

・・・日本語だけじゃなく、スペイン語とフランス語を練習しなきゃな。ありがとなw
... I need to practice my Spanish and French, and not just Japanese. Thanks. ^^;

まあな、日本語に対しては、手伝えるのは没入法だけかも。それと、漢字の練習。でもな、このネイティブ英語話者アメリカ人は大きな文字が怖いです~。
Heck, for Japanese, the only thing that would help me in Japanese would be immersion learning. And learning more kanji. But big letters scare this English-native American.

感謝してるよ。スペイン語を習うため大学とスペインで6月過ごした。ちょっと練習不足かも。
I appreciate that. I spent June in Spain with my college to learn Spanish. I guess I'm out of practice.

沖縄の食べ物は全て美味しい!シークヮーサーを初めて食べてみた。シークヮーサーは甘くて酸っぱくて美味しいんだ。
Okinawan food is all delicious! I discovered shiquasa (like a lime), which is sour and sweet and very tasty.

今日は、渡嘉敷島へ行った。あそこで自転車をレンタルして、阿波連ビーチへ行って、泳いで、沖縄そばを食べた。楽しかった。天気は暖かくてすごくきれいだった。
Today I went to Tokashiki Island, where I rented a bike and went to Aharen beach and swam and ate Okinawan soba. It was fun. The weather was warm and very beautiful.

I don't like the script either. On my screen the Ls with tails on them do not line up with the rest of the letters, and that looks gross.

東京へ帰った。
I've come home to Tokyo.

でも、成田から電車を乗っているので、本当に1時間ぐらい後に帰る。喉が渇いていて、疲れた。
But I'm taking a train from Narita, so I won't actually get home for another hour or so. I'm thirsty and tired.

全ての旅行とは、いちばん難しいところはこの成田空港から帰ることなんだ。
The most difficult part of any journey is getting home from Narita Airport.

Мои джинсы сжались во стиралке, но их размер теперь идеален для моего тела. Это же хорошо.
My jeans shrunk in the wash, but now they're just the right size for my body. This is good.

היום יום טיפשי. התחלתי לסדר לי את כל הניירות מהבנק מכל השנים שעברו כדי שאדע מה לזרוק ומה לא, אבל נזכרתי פתאום שהייתי צריך לקנות קפה, אז עזבתי את כל הבלגן על המיטה והלכתי לקנות שוקולד במקום, ועכשיו שחזרתי אני ממש עייף ורוצה רק להירדם, רק מה, אפילו לא בא לי לישון כי זה סתם משעמם ואני רוצה להיות פעיל וליהנות אבל אין מה לעשות חוץ מללמוד למבחנים. אעאעאעעאע.
Hayóm yom tipší. Hitxálti lesadér li et kol hanyarót mehabánk mikól hašaním še'avrú kedé še'edá ma lizrók vemá lo, avál nizkárti pit'óm šehayíti caríx liknót kafé, az azávti et kol habalagán al hamitá vehaláxti liknót šókolad bimkóm, ve'axšáv šexazárti aní mamáš ayéf verocé rak leheradém, rak ma, afílu lo ba li lišón ki ze stam meša'amém ve'aní rocé lihyót pa'íl velehanót avál en ma la'asót xuc mililmód lamivxaním. Aaaa.
Today is a dumb day. I started sorting out all the papers I've ever received from the bank so I'll know what I can throw away and what I can't, but I remembered suddenly that I had to buy coffee, so I left all the mess on the bed and went and bought chocolate instead, and now that I'm back I'm really tired and just want to fall asleep, except that I don't feel like sleeping because it's boring and pointless and I want to do stuff and have fun but I have nothing to do except study for exams. Argh.

I'm tired too but from walking. But I don't care, because here before I even start studying in two weeks I have exams, and then I'll study as hard as I can until summer.
