I'm talking to a friend on Skype, but we get to a point where she isn't sure how to say it in English. So I say, "Maybe I will be able to peace the russian together slowly?" She writes out...
Просто я думаю, что когда я думаю о муже и детях, я скорее думаю о себе, нежели о других людях
Which I translated to...
Simply, I think that when I think about the husband and children, it is not that I think about the idea of them, rather than about the people them selves.
And now... I think that is quite a bit more advanced then what I thought I could do. :P Now... If I get the skills to write that my self, yay! :P

Spice and Wolf & Omegle
I've never been an Otaku or anything, although I have liked some animes here and there: Black Lagoon, Elfin Lied, Akira, Samuri X, Paprika, Cowboy Bebop, Vampire Knight, School Days, and others which I cannot recall... anyway, Spice and Wolf. Quite awesome, it is about a traveling merchant in a world based on Renasounce Europe. :) Even though I'm a sucked for such fasion:
The story it's self is perfect. Another anime I have been watching of late, East of Eden. It's coming out with an episode per week, which is somewhat anoying as everything else I've seen has been done, or new stuff isn't out in forever. :P
Peoples
I found this site, http://omegle.com/ which is a random chat, you go to it, and it directs you to random peoples. I found some good people to talk to, and many... not so much. :/ One of the people that I met via Omegle, was talking to me about various TV shows:
and the episode on which it was based:
And yeah... :) Good stuff that I would not have learned about other wise.

Surf Nazis must Die!
I've been watching quite a few movies lately, none of the shit that comes out these days though. The good stuff:
Murder By Death
Some kind of Wonderful
Commando
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Blood Sport
Dolemite
and so on...
In other news....
I have been studying German for two days now.
I know simple stuff in the vein of...
Sprechen Sie Deutsch?
Ja, ich spreche Deutsch. Sprechen Sie Englisch?
Nein, ich spreche kein Englisch. Kommen Sie Amerika?
Ja, ich komme aus Amerika. Arbeiten Sie als der Fremdenführerin?
Ja, ich arbeiten als der Drendenfüherin.
Some random sentences that don't work into a low quality dialogue:
Ist das der Bahnhof?
Nein, ist nicht der Bahnhof.
Ist die Botschaft heir rects?
No, Botschaft ist hier links.
*If any of this is wrong, I would appreciate corrections. Tis out of my memory.
I have been using the FSI courses at http://www.fsi-language-courses.com/
as well as http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/BLL_German/A1
The later will be finished by tomorrow, tis small and simple, but has helped, and the FSI is the true course, the later being a quick primer and the former being the main course. I also have a Grammar, http://www.routledge.com/books/Modern-German-Grammar-isbn9780415272995 though I can assure you I payed but 2.5% for the tome. In addition, I'm searching for other things to help me, though the basics are most important, constructing basic sentances, asking questions to people and such...
I have also been working on Russian for a while longer, with pronounciation being my biggest problem, on the first day I thought, ah good, I can now read Cryllic, pronouncing it... not well, but what I think to be good, it shall get better with time. I then went on to learn a few basic things, cases and such, staying there, making sure no mistakes are made, or at least very few. A bit later however, I realized that I skipped a pair of pages in the grammar, which contained diffrences in pronunciation depending on lettering pairs... I've thus been perfecting this, so I do not make any mistakes that will be hard to change later on.
Society...
It has been anoying me as of late, the shallowness of most relationships, the lack of truth within people's statements and so on. I've been looking for some new friends now that I am back home from school, and have lost contact with all but one, and a few old band mates. As it would apear though, I am not sure how to meet people with out being forced to be with them for some reason (though bands are not quite forced upon you....) I'm thinking of taking some sort of class, most likely somesort of skill, arc-wielding seems quite funny for a teenager to learn... I have been talking to some random people online though, good... not times but... E-Times...? have been had, and I wish that I knew them in person.
With this first posrt, I bid thee a fairwell.
