I tried learning Spanish in Junior High School and High School and I ended up with C's and D's in those classes. The teacher I had for Junior High was a huge bitch and the people in that class were annoying. High School wasn't so great. Blegh, I hated those classes... Now here's a really sad story:

I went to this Japanese school every Saturday for the past 10 years and after I quit going there, I still couldn't read or write or speak that damn language! Now here's the sad part; I am Japanese. I can read and write hiraganas ok and kind of struggle reading and writing katakanas, but kanjis are a whole different story. I don't know why I couldn't learn Japanese. My sisters did great in that Japanese school and I think my brother did decent, but I just didn't do so good in it. Maybe it's the fact that the way the teachers teach it make it seem really boring and uninteresting. Or maybe it's the fact that I didn't want to go to some school every Saturday morning. I don't really know. I just hated going there and I didn't really get along with most of the teachers or students there. Maybe if I went back again, things could be different...

I can kind of pick up bits and pieces of words when my parents are speaking Japanese, but speaking to them in Japanese or listening to some total stranger in Japanese is pretty much impossible for me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
