Have you changed much since highschool? I forget English and japanese words all the time. It is terrible. Audrey- I have destroyed my brain through booze. Sigsy- I always forget it. Must be a common word to forget then huh? Jess- hehe...yoda. I use english words in Japanese sentences a lot...cos I don`t know the japanese words but while my japanese is better than most japanese people`s english grammar my vocab is shit. I wish I had a chocolate bar to eat now. Jen- I forget words like that all the time. it is shocking. Eric Carle did indeed do the hungary cattipillar. I have read about 10 of his books, in school etc, but I have not yet read them all. Enny- party was awesome. Will write about that eventually....probably. Deb~ I dream about half half I think. Although in my dreams japanese friends sometimes speak english and vice versa. But the dreams on av erage are half half. I will be using seahorse everyday from now on so that I won`t forget! Katie- I was hoping you`d comment and put me at ease!! The book is good. So is `Papa, draw me a staw` by eric carle. He has a lot of good books. The artwork is always awesome!

We just weren't using & hearing as much English anymore, so of course it's only natural to forget the words you don't use much. That looks like an awesome book!.

P.S That book is beautiful! I haven't read that one though, Eric Carle did the Very Hungry Catterpillar, didn't he?

Ummmmm we went to school together! I believe you were one or two grades below me. I saw your blog a while ago and couldn't work out why you look so familiar...and there is the reason. However, I don't think we ever spoke or had anything to do with each other..still, small world. I forget english words all the time, and I have never lived overseas or learnt another language...so you are one step above me. I thought I would finally comment on your blog.
