わたしのスケジュール

わたしは、まいしゅうのげつようびに、あさがら、はちじゅうはんにきます、じゅうじに　がこへいきます。じゅうじじゅうぷんがら、ごごいちぷんまで、べんきょうします。ごごいちじじゅうぺんから、ごごにじゅうはんまで、昼ごはんをたべあす。それがら、べんきょうします。よじじゅうぷんから、ごじゅうじゅうごぷんまで、にほんごをぺんきょうします。ろくじゅうに、ひるごはんをたべます。それから、としょかんでべんきょします。ごごじゅうぶんに、だいがくのりうへかいります。いちじにねます。

why I study Japanese

When I was a child, I watched Japanese anime. I remembered I was really impressed by the scene and the plot. However, because at that time I cannot read very well, I sometimes cannot understand what is going on only with the help of those subtitles. That was really annoying me and I used to wish all the anime would be dubbed in Chinese. As I grew up and did not have trouble reading subtitles, I started to realize that there are some feeling that only a Japanese anime can deliver. Some just sounds really wired in my native language (perhaps the dubbing actors are really bad lol.) I started to only watch original versions, with Chinese subtitles. Also, my interest toward anime started to expand to Japanese books and films. As the more I watched and read, the more I knew about the Japanese culture: their appreciation of sakura, all different perspectives of humanity and death, etc. And the more I knew the culture, the more I appreciated it. Since then, I wonder how it feel to watch or read directly in Japanese. It would be a completely different feeling. Also, it would be a really cool to speak Japanese with Japanese people and to make friend with them. To directly talk about what they think about their culture would be so cool.
