こんばんは,

This is my inaugural post for my blog for Japanese 101! Yay! Excitement! I suppose I should start off by saying that I decided to take Japanese because I love the culture, from anime to classical art to history, and I wanted an interesting and engaging challenge. I've greatly enjoyed my first two days of class, being taught by Sato Sen-see, and learning a few simple phrases. I'm excited to delve deeper into the grammatical structure of the language, which already fascinates me. I suppose the most difficult thing will be learning the different alphabets (Katakana, Hiragana, and Kanji). Anyway, I look forward to what the year has to offer!

jaa, mat!
Jacob.
