My first day at school

Friday September 20 was the first day of school at Rikkyo University. The last day of the week being my longest of all, I was excited to meet my professors and see how interesting my classes were going to be.

I started off my day with Japanese class, where we saw a first few hiraganas and started to learn the basis of the language. I think it was very interesting for us, who were 20 years old and up, to learn how to read and write all over again. It has been a minimum of 15 years, since it hadn’t happened to us.

I, then, discovered that there is a lunch period for everybody, everyday, which is great otherwise I would have happened a full on day. The next class we just overviewed the syllabus. Then I had the moot Court class, which is in a court looking classroom. It is super realistic and I am excited to be participating for this project.

My last class of the day was very surprising, since when I got there, there were only Japanese students seating. I asked my friend who was in the same class, are you sure it is not in Japanese, three times. When the professor arrived I felt much better, he is British so no worried the class will be held in a language I know. Since they were not expecting any international to be in this class, the other students kept on looking at me. I am really happy about this class, because I really wanted to meet Japanese people.

I guess another semester has begun.
