The Derailing Thread

Well, not too terrible tonight. Some pain and fatigue, but manageable. Studying one of my Japanese lessons. Arigato for asking!
I'm glad your pain is managable. Better than unbearable you know?
I really ought to study Japanese more...
 
Yes. Maybe the lights are working. I hope. Yes, studying a foreign language is tough; this is where the karate-training comes in handy, for the discipline it teaches.
 
I was playing WOW, but its ticking me off so I quit. Did some reading tonight.... Might read more later. I'm watching my favorite News show, Its' Called "World News Now" on ABC.
 
Yeah. It's fun :)
My friend helped me figure the game out, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do.
I've got the hang of it...or so I think .. .now! :biggrin

Do you play?
 
lately though i got to this continent and the quests are more complicated so I get mad, lol
 
No, in fact I've only seen it once in ready mode and am only vaguely knowledgeable on what it even is. Can you explain it to me? You're fighting other WOWs on the internet?
 
Hmm.. Well, a brief explanation:

You create a character. (Night elves, Humans, Trolls, Goblins), You choose the way it looks, and what race it is, and what they do. (Some are hunters, rogues, warriors, etc.)

The game is mostly of quests. Such as one says, "Kill 10 bears" and you do that, then you go back to the person who asked you to do the quest and they give your armor, money, food, etc. Quests are the way you level up and the highest level is 100.

You can mine rocks, or collect herbs, or cook food, fun things like that. You can buy or sell whatever you wish.

There are some quests that you can only do with other players, but there aren't many like that. You can fight someone too, all you do is ask and they accept or deny your offer. I don't fight others.

All the quests are different. And there are lots of people who play that you can be friends with. The friend I usually play with is a good friend, I don't really talk to strangers. Speaking of, you can role play, but I don't do that either.

Hope that helps. If you have any more questions let me know!
 
One of my characters was named Hitode, but I deleted her.
 
Excellent. Finally understand after so many years of hearing the term but no idea what it was about. I thought it was about fighting because when I saw it my friend showed me a muscular character with a huge sword that he created. But he was a chopper pilot in Viet Nam, so was probably most comfortable as a warrior.

I'm debating whether I'll be ready for the JLPT N4 this December. My friend, who actually moved to Japan (wife is Japanese), passed this level after living there for some time.

What is "JLPT N4"
 
What is "JLPT N4"
"Japanese Language Proficiency Test", an international standardized test for non-native speakers of Japanese. It has 5 ability levels, with N5 the lowest (I passed this last December), and N1 the highest (very difficult).
