Level 2 Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT 2)

Boy do I have a headache from taking this test... I decided to take level 2 just to see how much my Japanese has improved. I didn't want to take level 3 because my Japanese at this point should be enough to pass it. Level 2 was intense. About 90% of it I didn't know, and 10% I knew. I knew there was a huge gap between the level 2 and level 3 test. I guess I just want to see how much I will improve by the time I take it again half a year later. I already feel like I have improved a lot since I got out of college. Actually, when I walk into restaurants and other places, people think my Japanese is pretty good, but I know I still have a long way to go. I feel like this is the right environment for me to learn Japanese. I have learned so much since I got out of college. Even the teachers have commented that my Japanese has improved. I am happy with the progress I have made in just a short amount of time, but I know there is still much work to be done. I just need to keep pushing forward and hopefully by the time I get out of Tokyo Galaxy, I will be where I want to be in fluency.

So, after the test, I went to Ginza for a nice dinner. My dad should have never mentioned that it was ok to eat expensive food. I chose a really expensive restaurant that had high class Japanese food. Boy was it good. I just needed to sit and unwind from today's test. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Now... that's 100 USD well spent in my book... XD

(Sorry for errors this post. This headache is getting the best of me, but I still wanted to post something...)

((Another apology for the last few posts. A lot of things that I needed to get out of my head, so hopefully I can blog about happier things again))
