Got results for my last Japanese test today. My dream of getting 100 points finally succeded. I got 110. Out of 120 that is. I got all the crucial parts right, just some stupid mistakes like always. I actually missed a 'desu', dammit. But I'm very happy with myself. I really worked hard for this. A year isn't much, but it's a start. There's still a ceremony in two weeks. But we celebrated a bit. Went for beer with our sensei. It was kind of awkward and I'm not a sociable person, but I still want to get to know my group a little better. It's been 8 months and I don't even know half of them by name. Chatted a bit about this and that. It wasn't all that great, cold and uncomfortable and I barely said a few words, but somehow... I ran half the way home feeling so high, so acheived, so... happy.
